“Sensational” Jason Blair: Mike!!! I got news! Cards are out!
Blair turns the doorknob but it doesn't budge. He knocks on the door loudly.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: [/b] C'mon man, open the door! I got exciting news man! You're booked!!
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: (muffled, and hurried) Okay, umm. Alright. Just, give me a second...
Blair continues to pound on the door for another 10 seconds. Finally the door swings open and “Mediocre” Mike Machado sticks his mustached head into the picture.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: Did you say something about a book? I didn't know wrestlers were supposed to be scholars. I'm not going to lie, Jason.. my reading comprehension isn't quite what'd you call.. “high school”.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: …
Blair bullies his way through the doorway, and immediately recognizes his crucial error in judgment.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: ..what... Mike.. what were you doing in here..? The tie is supposed to go on the OTHER side of the door, Mike. ..
Machado's room is an unorganized mess, but this isn't the awkward problem we are facing here. Machado's flatscreen computer monitor displays a picture of Julietta Lee in her latest promo at the graveyard. On either side of the monitor rest a bottle of lotion and a box of tissues. Machado has a white t-shirt on, and a pair of gray sweatpants that he obviously just threw on in the nick of time.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: No, dude.. I was, uh.. I was.. scouting.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: ..No. No you weren't.
Machado walks over to the computer and clicks a few times, minimizing the browser and showing off his default windows background.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: ..Right, were just going to pretend that the conversation is starting right now. But, for the record, the tie goes on the outside of the door, so that I know when you're, you know.. taking care of business.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: I can't just have a tie hanging off my door all the time. I need that tie sometimes, for.. stuff.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Right, we're starting over.
Blair walks out of the room for a second and closes the door. He immediately turns around and knocks on the door again, starting in a placating, falsely excited tone.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Hey Mike; buddy, pal. Can I come in? I've got fantastic news!
The door swings open just a crack, and a hand shoots out quickly, placing a tie securely around the doorknob. The door swings shut again.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: …..
Blair shakes his head and walks away. Mumbling to himself about how this is going to be more difficult then he imagined.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: Welcome, to the THUNDERDOME!
”Sensational” Jason Blair: (from behind camera) ..CUT!!
Cut to black
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: Aloha!
“Sensational” Jason Blair: (from behind camera) ..CUT!!!
Fade in slow on Mike Machado staring into.. or maybe even behind the camera. He has a confused smile spread across his face. He speaks in a monotone, slowly.. obviously reading cue cards...
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: Hello, nCw. My name is Mike Machado. As of now, you know me as “mediocre” Mike Machado, but with hard work and a truly “Sensational” manager and trainer, you will come to know me as a well-trained … ..A... Athh.... uh..
Blair's voice booms from behind the camera.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Athlete...
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: Yes! An athlete!!
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Good! Good intro, Mike. Now, let's keep it goin.. just off the top of your head.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: An Athlete. One that has spent literally tens of minutes on a treadmill with a setting of “6” out of a possible “10.
Machado smirks confidently, impressed with himself.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: How, in this 3-way match do you plan to compete with a man that has that kind of work ethic?
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Right, hold the camera Mike. You obviously aren't ready for intimidation tactics yet.
The camera shakes as Blair transfers the camera to Mike Machado. The camera focuses on Blair's ice cold brown eyes. His perfect facial features flex with the tension of a man on a mission.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: As you can tell, we're looking at what appears to be a David -vs- Goliath -vs Goliath matchup. There's just one thing you have yet to consider. I am Jason damn Blair. My mere presence is enough to dwarf all 3 of you flunkies. Ya see, when Mike has me at ringside, he is never at a disadvantage. On the contrary, my guidance and infinite wisdom are enough to turn the most mundane, insignificant man into a damn world champion; an international superstar. Hell, with my influence I might even be able to make the two of you something other than no-name space fillers.
Blair chuckles at the thought of Daniel Miles or Jack Wilde being his equal.
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Hey, I may not even need to become physically involved in this matchup. There's a possibility Mike Machado will be able to handle this match his damn self. I never thought I'd see someone who I consider Mike's peer in this federation. I suppose it's a good place to start.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: You mean that?
”Sensational” Jason Blair: Wrap it up, Mike. We're done here. We need to hit the gym, it's time for you to learn your signature finishing move.
”Mediocre” Mike Machado: Yes! I've been waiting for this moment! I'm thinking “Samoan Showstopper”
”Sensational” Jason Blair: When it comes to wrestling, you do not think anymore. I'll show you when we get there. Pack your wrestling gear. Let's roll.
The camera fades slowly as Machado puts the camera down.
Blair turns the doorknob but it doesn't budge. He knocks on the door loudly.
