00:01But a man who is dreaming of one day headlining WrestleMania,
00:06Cruz Montana is live.
00:15Yeah!
00:20Hey, yo, NXT!
00:24What's good?
00:26Come on!
00:29Now check it.
00:31I walked into NXT and I made my intentions clear as day
00:35when I set my eyes on that NXT title.
00:40But let's be real, I haven't been quite stacking those wins.
00:45But if you've been paying attention,
00:48your man hasn't been losing either.
00:52My pops always said that we don't take losses, we learn lessons.
00:59And I've been in this position before and all it's done
01:02is throw gasoline on the flames and make me want it even more.
01:07So I'll tell you this, whoever's walking out as NXT champion
01:13after Mason and Waller throw hands,
01:17know that that NXT...
01:22Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, fuck!
01:23Hold the phone, dog.
01:24Hold on!
01:25Hold the phone.
01:28Back to business.
01:30Hey, Cruz!
01:33You're really good at making yourself sound more important than you are.
01:37You love that reputation.
01:39Nobody cares what you did or what you're about to do.
01:46Darkstay's gonna run through the Dusty Cup.
01:49So let them worry about championships and you...
01:53You worry about what's in front of you, which is...
01:58Nothing.
02:03Shut your ass up, Dion.
02:06You seem to talk tough when you got your crew out here.
02:11So how about you let your bum-ass friends worry about the Dusty Cup
02:17and you step through these ropes and face me like a man.
02:21Let's get it.
02:23All right, all right, all right.
02:24Look.
02:25Hey, we good.
02:26We good.
02:27I got this.
02:28I got this.
02:29Look.
02:31Hey, Cruz.
02:32Hey, let's go!
02:34You were the guy in TNA.
02:37You wrestled all over the world.
02:38You won titles in every promotion.
02:42I give it to you.
02:46But just because you've been doing this your whole life
02:49and you set up some Dusty rings,
02:51you think you better than me?
02:56There's a reason why athletes like me
02:58have been coming into this business
03:01and taking over.
03:04you shake
03:05at the idea of discipline.
03:08I am discipline.
03:10Structure.
03:11I never had nobody to clean up my mistakes.
03:14I could have gone down that path,
03:18but I wasn't going to throw my life away.
03:20I worked too hard for mine.
03:22And last week you said that
03:23EK Prosper
03:26was the future of this brand.
03:27Why?
03:31Because he had to eat dirt
03:32just like you to get here?
03:35I ain't never going to relate to that, bro.
03:41Oh, bendito.
03:42¿Qué te pasa?
03:45Your feelings are hurt
03:47because I said EK
03:48was the future of this brand.
03:51Is that why you out here?
03:52Yeah.
03:53First and foremost, homeboy,
03:56the only person
03:57that cleaned up my mistakes
03:59was the man that I look at
04:01in the mirror
04:02every single day.
04:08I have spent years
04:11overcoming those demons.
04:13I have busted my ass
04:17and have learned
04:18from some of the best in the game.
04:22Ask anybody
04:23that has known me
04:25the last 20 years
04:26and they'll tell you
04:27I've paid my dues
04:29every step of the way, homeboy.
04:34I have earned
04:37everything that I've been blessed with
04:39in and out of this ring.
04:45You ain't got nothing on me, homeboy.
04:48And to be honest,
04:49you could have used some of that
04:51because of
04:52all that athletic ability
04:54that you always brag about.
04:57I'll run circles around you
04:59in this ring,
05:00on this microphone,
05:02and in every aspect
05:04of this business
05:05every single day.
05:20You walked into wrestling
05:22because things
05:23didn't work out for you
05:25anywhere else, huh?
05:27You couldn't cut it
05:29and the NFL
05:30didn't want your ass either,
05:32huh?
05:35But check me.
05:36Check me real quick.
05:38I didn't get no messages
05:40on my Instagram
05:41about no tryouts, homeboy.
05:45I've earned my way in
05:48every step
05:50and there's nothing you
05:51or anybody could ever do about it
05:53because I'll tell you this.
05:55I carry my family,
05:58my city,
05:59and my culture
06:00on my back
06:05while people like you
06:08walk in here
06:10and think that
06:11everything should be handed to you
06:13and then you throw it on the floor
06:16and step all over.
06:17Get the hell out of here,
06:18my face.
06:19Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
06:20hold on, hold on.
06:21You said
06:23you said people like me, right?
06:28Wasn't your mama a drug dealer?
06:35Mine wasn't.
06:36I did everything right.
06:38D1 athlete,
06:39education,
06:40NFL training camp.
06:42I did things,
06:42I did things so right
06:44that WWE practically begged me
06:47to get here.
06:48Yet for some reason,
06:51you hear them,
06:53all these people
06:59hate me.
07:01but they love you.
07:05Why?
07:07Because Dion Lennox
07:08wasn't a drug addict like him?
07:13What?
07:14And now everybody wants to
07:15pat you on the back
07:16because you got it all together now.
07:20And you walk around
07:21like some hero
07:23when all you've done
07:24is become the man
07:25that you should have been
07:26from day one.
07:29So, look, Cruz,
07:30let me tell you like this.
07:33You had to lose everything
07:35just to become somebody.
07:40I've been somebody
07:41my whole life.
07:47Oh!
07:47Well, Cruz has had enough.
07:49Uh-huh.
07:50Uh-huh.
07:51Cruz throwing hands.
07:52Yeah, man.
07:53Take it to the boat, Dave.
07:55Ricky didn't do justice.
07:57Montana trying to teach
07:58Lennox a lesson.
07:59Come on, knock it off.
08:00Knock it off.
08:01Come on, knock it off.
08:03Knock it off.
