(Cameras fade in on a recording studio room, where a Four piece band gets ready to play. The lead singer has his back turned as Cindy Shannon walks over and taps his shoulder. The lead singer turns around and we see that it is Cid Phoenix.)
CINDY: Cid Phoenix?!? Wh-What are you doing here?!?
CID: Well, it should be obvious what I'm doing here, Cindy! I'm getting ready to rock out with my cock out! You see, Cindy - being the most talented athlete in the APW isn't my ONLY forte of expertise, I also sing as well!
CINDY: Well, I was wondering if by any chance you had any thoughts as to your Fatal Four Way Dance for the Xtreme Title this upcoming Pay-Per-View?
CID (Turns to his bandmates): Hold on fellas... (Turns to Cindy) Now Cindy, first of all, I'm ecstatic about my match, because I'm going to show all of my opponents, that I AM the new standard in this business, and that there's nothing... NOTHING that they can do about it!
CINDY: Well, I'm sure you've heard what Branden Harvey, Slade & Diamante Valentine said in their promo--
CID (Cutting her off): Oh, My God! Branden Harvey Slade & Nero said what?!? (chuckles) Woop-Dee-Fuckin' Doo! Those guys ALL think they're gonna win the Xtreme Championship, but come Christmas Chaos, the APW Universe is gonna see that these jamooks are up against the ultimate superior athlete in myself! And as far as my opponents are concerned, I have a few words for each one of them! And lucky you... You get yourself and exclusive interview!
CINDY: Yes, well - That IS what I'm here for!
CID (smirks): Okay, Cindy! Here goes...Everybody knows, Branden Harvey knows that I'm invincible when I get going, and nothing...NOTHING is gonna stop me, when I get in that ring and go on an all out assault on each and every one of my opponents! You see Cindy, - This match is a mind game, one that I'm all too familiar with. Each one of us is gonna be in that ring, trying to beat the other for the victory, but I'm the one who's going to keep my wits about me. It's true that I've no love lost for either one of these competitors, but the main focus isn't some payback on Nero or even upstaging Slade or Branden. No, the focal point of my strategy going into this match is... focus. I focus on the most perfect opportune time to strike, and I execute my attack, and pick up the victory of a lifetime! I've prepared myself both mentally and physically for this match, and I do not feel the slightest bit nervous about it. All I have to do, is go out there and show the world why Cid Phoenix is the absolute shoe-in to win the Xtreme Championship! So, Branden Harvey can whine and moan and show a shaky bit of confidence, and Slade can try and get the fans to rally behind him and play the sympathy card, while Nero cries like a baby about his ex- wife and does 100 pushups, sit-ups, chin-ups or whatever else he does. The fact of the matter is that none of them have what it takes to beat me on my worst day, let alone my best! And that is going to be what the fans are going to see - Cid Phoenix getting the biggest Christmas present of his entire career in the Xtreme Championship!
CINDY (Surprised): Well, that's short and sweet and amazingly solid! But are you absolutely sure that you can win---
CID: (cutting her off): Cindy, let me tell you something.. I am not Slade Craven, Diamante Valentine, OR Branden Harvey...I'm Cid Fuckin' Phoenix, the FUTURE of this business, and believe me when I tell you that I intend on using EVERYTHING at my disposal to take down my opponents and become the APW's TRUE BLUE XTREME CHAMPION!!!
(Cid poses almost patriotic as he says this, then scratches his head thinking.)
CID: Waitaminute... Cindy - I want you to tell me the truth. How'd you even find me here?
CINDY (blushing): Well, Cid - I followed you..
CID: From my hotel room?!?
CINDY (winces): Sorry...
(Cid shakes his head for a moment, then smiles as he looks at Cindy.)
CID: It's okay, Cindy - This isn't the first time I've had a groupie, y'know...
CINDY (shocked): Groupie?!? Waitaminute, I think you have got the wrong--
(Cid puts his index finger on her lips and shushes her, before gazing into her eyes.)
CID: Now-now..Cindy, we both know that pretending is just lying to yourself! I mean I've seen the way you look at me, and I even noticed you have a Cid Phoenix coffee mug, these are tell-tale signs that you've got a schoolgirl crush on me!
CINDY: WHHAAAAAT?!?
(Again, Cid Phoenix puts a hand on her lips, shushing her, as he leans forward, grabbing her by the waist. She looks to be quite surprised as he leans in and kisses her. There is a brief pause when they kiss, before Cid gently releases her from his grasp.)
CID (smirking): Soo... What did you think of that, huh, sweetheart?
(Cindy pauses and seems disoriented. She shakes her head and looks at Cid Phoenix. She says nothing, merely looking into his eyes before..)
POW!!!
CID: AAAAUGHHHH!!!
(Cid drops to the floor, the victim of a swift kick to the groin. As he drops to the floor, his bandmates all start laughing, as Cindy kneels right beside him and wipes her lips.)
CINDY: Don't you EVER try that again, you sick pervert! And as far as a crush, the only thing crushed around here are your balls, of which I'm not even sure that you even have! Thank you for the interview!
(Cindy storms off, as Cid winces in pain, rolling around on the floor. A few seconds pass and Cindy comes back, and leans over Cid again..)
CINDY: Oh, By the way... next time you're gonna kiss a girl - try using a breath mint first! You stink!
(Having said her final words, Cindy storms off, as the camera shuts off.)
~Several Hours Later~
(Cid Phoenix is at an APW Expo - signing autographs, where amongst a huge number of fans, he runs into Hannah Storm, who walks over smiling. Ready for an interview, he smiles warmly, as he approaches her.)
CID: Hey there, Haney!
HANNAH: It's Hannah...
CID: Yeah, whatever... So, you want to get an interview with the future Xtreme Champion?
HANNAH (chuckles): Yes, well there's that and I also wanted to ask you how you were feeling after that embarrassing run-in with Cindy?
CID (sneers): Ha Ha Ha... Very funny, I bet you think you're pretty funny, dont'cha Hammy?
HANNAH: I told you, my name is--
CID: Whatever.. Anyway, I'm feeling MUCH better, thank you for your plastic concern... It seems to match your heavily worked on face! But the main issue, is that I'm going to talk a bit about my Four Way Non-Sexual Encounter with current champion Branden Harvey, Diamante Valentine and that other guy who used to carry the belt... what's his name?
HANNAH: You mean Slad--
CID: Yeah, Whatever.. The bottom line is that there is a chain of history between each and every one of these competitors and myself!
HANNAH: Huh?
CID: I know that you may not understand what I'm talking about, Honey - but please do try and keep up!
HANNAH: My name is--
CID: Yeah, sure whatever. Anyway, I'm sure that you and the rest of the APW faithful are wondering what strategy I have going into this match, right? Therefore I will point out certain important facts that are prevalent in this upcoming match... Branden's worried. He's worried about losing his precious title to any one of us and he should be, because there is no way in hell that he's walking out of the Bradley Center retaining. That's just not gonna happen, because after I lay waste to him and my other opponents, I'll be the NEW TRUE BLUE APW XTREME CHAMPION!!!
HANNAH: You're very fond of saying that, aren't you?
CID: If you mean, am I fond of speaking the truth? Yes, I love to say the truth, and there's also another saying... and that saying is that the truth hurts! You see, Hedda...
HANNAH: Hannah.
CID: Whatever. You see, what I bring to any arena that I grace with my presence is a standard...
HANNAH: Like a...gold standard?
CID: I bring excellence...
HANNAH: Of execution?
CID: I come to the APW like a shining beacon of light, ready to usher this fed into a new era. An era that starts with me, and moves on into the annals of history! I WILL BE CHAMPION!!! It has been foreseen, no one can stop this...
HANNAH: You're insane.
CID: Perhaps, I am. But then again...
(Cid smiles at Hannah, before walking off-screen.)
~ Later that day ~
(Cid Phoenix is in a massage parlor. The asian masseuse leans over as she's working on him.
MASSEUSE: You very tense, Mister. You want Happy Ending?
(Cid Phoenix looks at her)
CID: Do I look like Sally Talford? No, I don't want a Happy Ending, just rub my damn back, bitch!
(His cellphone rings, and Cid reaches for it, answering.)
CID: Hello? Hey Danny! How''s retirement treating you? I hear that you got nominated in Vegas for Rookie of the Year... Oh yeah. You heard about that huh? Well, it's true - Your's truly is going to go for a championship.. Help? Nah, stay where you are, man - I don't need it. I'm as good as gold, that much I can honestly say... Yeah, I heard about Dave. Seems like he's going for a title of his own... Putting the group back together? Nah man, It ain't in the cards... What's that? Tool of the Year?? HAHAHAHA! Niice! In any case, I've got to run, but I'll give you a call later, okay? I've got a belt fitting to go to. Nah, it's just a formality. But promise me you'll be watching from Vegas, eh? Cool. Take care..
(Cid Phoenix hangs up the cellphone, and smiles to himself as the cameras fade out.)
