(The day of Sovereign. The scene opens in a small kiosk where the local Memphis radio station is doing a promotion in highlighting the pay-per-view event. A man, the host of the program, and a woman sits on one side of a table, both with microphones in hand, as a second woman, their guest for the morning, also has a microphone.)
Host: So, again, thanks for making your record fourth appearance on That Wrestling Show.
(The camera pans over to Mercedes Vargas, casually dressed and wearing a baseball hat.)
Mercedes: Thanks for having me, guys. I’m pretty sure I’m owed something. Make four appearances, get the fifth one free?
(The hosts share a good laugh with Mercedes.)
Co-host: Well, just to remind our listeners, today is the big day: it’s nCw’s Sovereign pay-per-view event at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee…
Mercedes: That’s right, Rosalind.
And you’ll be featured in one of the pre-show matches, a six-woman battle royal in your pay-per-view debut. I guess we should start off by asking are you nervous?
Me, nervous? Mark, I thought you knew me by now. Nervous isn’t in my vocabulary. (laughs)
Come on, you have to at least be a little nervous. I mean, you’ve only been with New Championship Wrestling for, what, a little more than a month now?
Yeah, a little more than a month. This is my fourth match, by the way.
You know, it seems as if every time you’re on the program, you’ve joined a new promotion, right Roz?
It is the strangest thing. When you came on the first time, Mercedes, you were just making your debut for 3WL, while with Divas Unleashed. When you stopped by again in February, it was AFPW, and now nCw.
(slowly nodding her head) I signed with nCw around March.
As if you weren’t busy enough! Mercedes, normally we would be talking about what you’ve been up to in other promotions, but let’s focus on the present. Now, as I understand it, you’ll be facing a few familiar faces in tonight’s battle royal?
Well, yes and no, Mark. Prior to this match, I haven’t had the chance to face the other girls, with the exception of Stephanie Sullivan in 3WL and Mercedes Lewis in nCw, but at the end of tonight, we’ll know one another soon enough. (laughing)
Well, who do you think will be the easiest competition going into tonight?
And I thought you were going to ask me who was going to be the hardest competition. Um, that’s a good question. I guess I would say the one who happens to be near the ropes or is distracted at the moment.
And I’m sure you’ll be there to take advantage the moment they turn their back.
Oh, you know it. (smiles, laughing)
And now the toughest competition going into tonight?
There we go. Toughest competition going into tonight? (pauses to think) Well, everyone likes Alysson Gardner... (thinks about it further) but then there’s Stephanie and Kathleen Conway who could prove troublesome.
I guess you could say that the winner of this battle royal could possible see themselves in line for a future opportunity at the Women's Championship. Is that belt going to be on the line tonight?
Yes, there will be a Women's Championship match on the card between Trish Newborn and Roxxxie, the champion. And believe you me, as soon as I'm done wiping the floor with everyone in the battle royal, I'll be watching this match very closely.
I'm sure you will. Mercedes, we know that you are fluent in both English and Spanish (Mercedes nods), so do you have anything to say to your Spanish speaking friends and your fans?
Hola a mis amigos de hablar españoles y mis abanicos, que escuchan de radio o vía emisión simultánea por radio y televisión. Le amo, y espero que usted se quede siguiente de mí en mi carrera y en nCw.
And for those of us who aren’t native speakers of Spanish?
Well, basically I said hello to everyone that is watching, that speak Spanish, and I hope they continue to follow my career, and in nCw.
New Championship Wrestling presents its Sovereign pay-per-view tonight here in Memphis. Mercedes, thanks for gracing us with your presence. It is 8:33 on WXNY 94.5. I am Mark Slaton, and you’re listening to That Wrestling Show. Hey, let’s get an update on Traffic. Dave, take it away…
