After an absolutely thrilling match between two of Thy WWE's brightest up and coming superstars, the mood completely changes as Todd Grisham comes onto the titantron. He's standing behind the Monday Night RAW interview backdrop, wearing a black suit and red tie. He holds the microphone to his mouth, and begins to speak.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what an evening it has been thus far here on Monday Night RAW. I am now standing with RAW's newest superstar. This man is intelligent, to say the least. From my understanding, he has worked with the top doctors in the world, ladies and gentlemen. Also, he is one of the biggest men on the RAW roster. He will be making his in ring debut here tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my guest at this time, 'The Pedagogue of Pain'....... Mike Knox."[/color]
The camera lens slowly zooms out to show a daunting figure known as Mike Knox towering over Todd Grisham. His long beard is touching the middle of his chest, seeming to have grown even more since we last saw him. His angry scowl has gone nowhere, as he wears it with pride. He glances over at Grisham, waiting for him to continue the interview.

"Mike, first of all, thank you for allowing me this time to sort of get into your mind, if you will. Ever since you first appeared on camera last week, Thy WWE dot com has been flooded with comments about you, believe it or not. You seem to have struck a nerve with a lot of people. How do you feel about that?"[/color]
Knox grabs his beard and slowly pulls down on it, straightening in out; as innocent as it seems, it's still a bit unnerving. He stares into the distance, and carefully orchestrates his reply.

"Struck a nerve, Todd Grisham? I know quite a bit about nerves. Which nerve did I strike, Todd?"[/color]
Grisham is about to answer, but Knox willfully cuts him off.

"Would it be the afferent nerve? Perhaps the efferent nerve? Spinal nerve? Cranial nerve? Sensory nerve? Do you even know what a nerve is, Todd Grisham?"[/color]
Once again, Todd is about to answer, but Knox cuts him off.

"A nerve is an enclosed, cable-like bundle of peripheral axons. A nerve provides a common pathway for the electrochemical nerve impulses that are transmitted along each of the axons, do you understand?"[/color]
Todd lowers his head a bit, and simply nods, trying to avoid confrontation.

"But I think I know the answer: none of the above. The nerve that I struck was the nerve that is infused in the body of the Thy WWE Universe, isn't it? It's the nerve that becomes hyperactive when the sensors are disturbed. The sensors become disturbed when they register something they don't like."[/color]
Knox pauses for a moment, grooming his beard with his right hand.

"I get it: these people don't like me. They don't understand me. I've dealt with that my entire life. They are frightful of me: but that's ok. In fact, I don't blame them. A man so capable of hurting another human being using his own two hands is a frightening thing, Todd... a very frightening thing."[/color]
Todd adjusts his tie a bit, becoming a bit frightened himself. He wasn't used to such an imposing figure.

"I see. Well, let's move on. Tonight, you make your RAW in ring debut when you take on the FORMER Intercontinental Champion, Brian Gunn. Coming off of the heels of an Intercontinental Championship loss last week, Gunn's momentum isn't exactly impressive. How do you plan to capitalize on Gunn's momentum, or lack thereof?"[/color]
The Pedagogue of Pain
MIKE KNOX[/u]
"I believe this question is irrelevant, Todd. You see, I don't need to capitalize on anything. I don't need to face a loser to win a match. No matter who I face, they will be in for a night of pain, courtesy of the Pedagogue of Pain. I am not someone to pick the bones, Todd. I want the full meal, see? I want my opponent to be one hundred percent every time. If Brian Gunn is still worrying over his title loss last week, so be it: it makes no difference. I'm a man who could care less. That is why this question is irrelevant. Title loss or no title loss, I'm facing Brian Gunn, and he will be broken by me."[/color]
Todd Grisham raises his eyebrows and nods.

"Well, with all due respect, Brian Gunn has found a great amount of success in his career. This isn't his first match. You make it sound so easy!"[/color]
A smile crept onto the face of Knox.
The Pedagogue of Pain
MIKE KNOX[/u]
"I agree. It does sound easy. That because it is easy: easy for me. None of these so called superstars have ever bothered to study the human body. None of these so called superstars even know what they are doing when they deliver a powerbomb. They don't know which nerves, which tendons they are affecting, and they don't know how much that nerve or tendon can take. All they do is continue to attack that body part. They don't know which nerves run into which body part. You talk about capitalizing, Todd. None of these superstars capitalize on the ability to arm themselves with knowledge of the human body. That's what makes me so dangerous. That is why men fall onto their faces when I walk by them. They plead for mercy. They plead that I leave them alone because they know what I'm capable of doing. Let me tell you something, Todd: I'm not someone to take lightly. I'm an intelligent monster. I call it Intelligent Destruction. That is what I do. I do not wrestle, I destruct. THAT'S why it's easy, because I know what's going on when I kick a man's tongue down his throat."[/color]
Grisham continues to loosen his tie a bit, growing more and more uncomfortable by the graphic words of "Monstrous" Mike Knox.

"Ok, let's wrap this up. Recently, the WWE Championship has become vacant. I know it's still very early in your WWE career, but one has to wonder: any championship aspirations for Mike Knox?"[/color]
Knox takes a moment to truly think about the words of Todd Grisham.

"I am neither for nor against it. I'm not in this for titles. You don't get it, do you? I ENJOY hurting people. It's what I've studied to do all of my life, and I know how to do it. If the WWE Championship comes into my paths, so be it, but what I truly want... is to hurt people."[/color]
Knox glares down at Todd, who has a problem looking Knox in the eyes. Instead, Todd looks back into the camera and nods.

"Alright, that's RAW newcomer Mike Knox making his intentions known. It should be interesting to see where this man goes in his career. We'll be right back."[/color]
Grisham lowers the mic, as Monday Night RAW slowly fades out to a commercial break.
