USA? Hack, Pooie! Empire Number One!

[Scott Smith]

Sara Sanderson - So Scott..

Scott Smith - Yeah.

Sara Sanderson - You made a huge impact in joining MWA when you effectively ended the career for Jack of Spades.. But you have seemed to have been derailed in your momentum, especially after getting eliminated from World War. You and Mason were heavily favored to win the tag team part of that event.

Scott Smith - I'm glad you brought that up Sara. Now first of all, I didn't get derailed by Loli-Kon and Kittie and Ebio and those guys. I got distracted. I kind of got obsessed with taking down Loli-Kon. I get that way sometimes. Tunnel vision. But now I've got my sights set on something else. Gold.

Sara Sanderson - Universal? Canadian?

Scott Smith - No you dumb minx, tag team!

Sara Sanderson - Michael the Mangler and Chris Legend?

Scott Smith - Yeah right, Michele the Mangler and Chris Legend-in-his-own-mind. It doesn't matter who has the gold, that's the path I'm blazing right now. You saw it last week when Mason and myself took down the Extreme Regime. Next week.. unfinished business.

Sara Sanderson - Simply Wrestling? But you never crossed paths with them before..

Scott Smith - Exactly my point! They won the World War Tag Team trophy didn't they? But they never.. and I'll say that again.. NEVER beat me and Mason! How can they say they are the best in the world when they never faced the best in the world.. The Empire?!? I asked for this match weeks ago, but apparently Simply Wrestling was tied up in other matters. Now that those issues have been resolved they can no longer hide from the Empire. And after we get done steamrolling past Simply Wrestling the next step is taking the tag team championship!!!

** Later... Blake Parish and Mr. Wrestling IV are walking to the catering table backstage, when they encounter Sara Sanderson. Sara seems a little out of sorts. Blake wanders over to her as Mr. Wrestling picks up a danish. **

Blake Parish: Hey Sara, you ok? You seem a little.. I don't know.. Off.

Sara Sanderson: It's nothing. I just did an interview with Scott Smith and he insulted me.

** Mr. Wrestling stops mid bite and the danish pieces fall from his hand and mouth. **

Mr. Wrestling: What did that Limey bitch say to you?

Sara: Nothing, really.

Mr. W: What did he say?

Sara: He just called me a dumb minx, that's all. See, nothing. I don't know why it even bothered me to begin with.

Mr. W: Union Jack saluting ass-clown must die!

** Noticing the anger in his partner's face, Parish quickly steps in Mr. Wrestling's path. **

Parish: Where are you going, Big Man?

** Mr. Wrestling pushes Parish out of his way. Blake steps back around his arm, back into Mr. Wrestling's way. **

Mr. W: I'm going to teach that Tea sipper some manner.

Parish: Listen. We have a match against him and Mason soon. Why don't we go out to the ring and we'll have a chat with them?

Mr. W: A Chat? A nice little Chit-Chat? OK. My fist can "chit" with his jaw, and my foot can "chat" with his balls.

Parish: Maybe I should do the talking. Let's go check out the interview they did with Sara, then we'll head to the ring. And let me do the talking, you will just start something. Don't worry Sara, we got this.

Sara: Really guys, you're blowing this way out of proportion.

** Mr. Wrestling walks over to Sara and places his index finger over her lips signaling "Shhhhh." **

Mr. W: You had me at "Scott Smith insulted me." We'll take care of this, Sweet cheeks.

** Mr. Wrestling and Parish turn and make their way to the production trailer, as Sara Sanderson drops her head into her hands. **
