Anto is racing around backstage, frantically looking around, searching for something.
Anto: Frankie. Frankie. Where are ya mate?
He grabs a guy walking by by the shoulders, shakes him and stares in his face.
Have you seen Frankie?
Ther man shakes his head, and Anto pushes him away.
Frankie: Anto. Shut up. I'm alright. Just a bit of a hangover. That's all.
Frankie emerges from the janitor's closet, holding his head.
But, but you disappeared in the middle of the match.
Really? Shit, that must have been one wild night. So what do you want anyway? What's so important?
Your match atr Ascension. Your opponent is Bratchney.
The one with the girl's name?
Yeah him, Carmen. He's a formerElite X champion. the belt you-
Frankie interrupts.
Hold it there. the key there is former. As in used to be. As IN, not the champ. And just to refresh your memory, who is the current one. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I am the Elite X champ. Like it or not.
Carmen thinks he can come back, and take me on. Hilarious. He's old news. He's dropped. And now to face him, I have to drop MY standards. Pathetic.
I also heard him mention something about your, eh, manners.
Manners? Manners? He wants manners, then he go to fucking dinner with old fucking women and have a nice fucking times talking about their fucking pension. I use whatever language I want, you cunt. I grew up in a society where it didn't matter what you said as long as you didn't mention the mother. Then there was war. So if you want to try and be my mother, and lecture me, get lost.
Now, onto more important things. The elite X league. I say more important, but I don't give a shit who I face. They're still going to lose. No matter who they are. They'll fall to the crushing force of the celts.
Are you sure man? He's pretty strong. He's known for being one of the best WZCW wrestlers ever.
Notice one of the best. You know why. Because I am the best.
A cocky smile goes across his face.
Now now. That's a bit steep.
Frankie doesn't hear him.
Jesus. My head's killing me. I'm going to go back to bed.
He walks into the locker room and lies on one of the benches, putting his head on his rolled up jacket.
He chuckles
Bratchney won't know what hit him. Then I'll show him manners.
