Cameras fade in on Melvin Peabody and Cid Phoenix seated across from eachother. House Band music plays a mashup of Creedence Clearwater's "Fortunate Son" before a live audience. For some strange reason, Phoenix is dressed inexplicably in a toga. The audience applauds on cue, as Melvin works his magic..
MP: Welcome to another special edition interview for APW's RASSLEMANIA! I'm your host, Marvin Peabody and joining me at this time is--
Peabody glances over at Phoenix. There is a moment of silence where the audience begins to laugh, prompting both Melvin and Phoenix to start laughing as well. Melvin cuts the silence..
MP: Okay! Now you showed up here dressed like that and prompted this response Cid! What gives with this get-up?
Phoenix smiles at the audience, as he slaps his thigh and laughs as he shakes his head.
CP: Well, I've been such a grump lately, that I forgot what it was like to have fun!
MP: Your certainly in better spirits after this past week's Meltdown Rumble!
CP: Well, yeah.. after I fought my hardest and got tossed out of the ring like some town drunk, I realized that my game needed to be stepped up!
MP (laughs): But.. You're wearing a toga, man! What's up with that?
CP: I'm feeling like Spartacus going into this very exceptional championship ladder match with the victor getting to represent this great region of North America as it's champion!
MP: Wow, That's a nice way to look at it, Cid. I don't think I ever got past the title of champion.
CP: Mel, it's so much more than just a gold belt. Winning the North American Championship is a chance for me to show the world that I am truly one of the best in the world and would definitely bestow a great honor upon me as champion.
MP: True as it may be, Cid.. You face very difficult opposition inj your opponents, and Warren Peace doesn't look like he's willing to cough up that title just yet!
CP: Well, he's gonna have to fight for it tooth and goddamned nail. Any number of us in that match is going to put our bodies on the line in order to win that championship, and that is exactly what I plan to do at Rasslemania! I plan on walking in challenger, taking a deep breath, going through hell and emerging your new APW North American Champion! And if any of the competition thinks that I'm gonna be any sort of a pushover or a cakewalk, then they can certainly hold on and rethink their evaluation. I am here to win and become champion. I'm not gonna take it easy on anyone because they have a pretty face, or because they slipped and broke their ankle on the apron. I'm going to attack and attack and attack until everyone but myself is laid out in that very ring - I don't care how many ace cutters or rolling thunders or scorpion locks or even frog splashes I have to nail before even considering climbing up that ladder to grab that prize.. Believe me people when I say to you that come Rasslemania, you will see a completely different Cid Phoenix. I will fight them all as if they are trying to take my life!
MP: Strong words there, Cidney!
CP: It's a tough, dog eat dog world out there, Mel. One can either stay hungry or snatch that piece of meat away from the others. I aim to show my Alpha Male side in this match and I don't care who I have to bury to do it!
MP: Well, I for one certainly wish you the best of luck in your insane ladder match! Go and bring hom the gold, will'ya? Ladies and Gentlemen, Rasslemania airs live from the Rogers Center in Toronto Ontario March 24th 2013 - Please call you cable provider and make sure you don't miss it! Cid Phoenix will be in action.. Again ladies and gentlemen, Cid Phoenix We'll be right back where we will reveal one lucky viewer who is getting free tickets not only to Rasslemania, but to the fallout show of their choice - Overdrive, Asylum or Meltdown! We'll be back after this commercial break!!!
A thunderous applause is followed by House Band music, as Cid Phoenix waves at the crowd, before shaking hands and hugging Melvin Peabody.
