HD: Opening segment

Recommended Posts

[b]EARLIER TODAY[/b]

At the back entrance of the arena, the Champ is here! Yeah, I know, I hate that phrase with a passion too. But, it's true, Landon Maddix is here, weaving his way through the cars in the parking lot deep in conversation with Megan Skye. So deep that he almost doesn't notice Stephen Joseph Popick in his path, just about managing not to bump into him.

POPICK
Hey Champ, how's it going? I hope you brought your gear tonight.

MADDIX
(confused)
And why's that?

POPICK
Take a wild guess.

Looking around nervously for any sign of The Lightning Crew, Landon sees that the coast is clear. Then, a lightbulb seems to go off over his head and he has that wild guess... to himself, before realising just how wild it is.

MADDIX
Nah. After last week, I'm guessing my turn on the Handicap Match coaster is null and void.

POPICK
Tha Puerto Rican wouldn't team with Zack Malibu if he were the last man alive. No, it's even better than that. See, Stephen Joseph Popick is officially back out of retirement... uhm, again. And I'm starting my comeback right at the top! With you, tonight, one on one.

MADDIX
Non title?

POPICK
Oh, yes. But only because that belt has Tha Puerto Rican's name on it in three days time. Believe me, if not for that fact, I'd take that title tonight, no sweat. I'm a former OAOAST World Champion myself you know.

Landon glances over at Megan, who confirms that it's true.

MADDIX
Wonders'll never cease.

POPICK
Yeah, well, clearly you need to brush up on a little OAOAST history. And I'll be more than happy to give you a little history lesson tonight. Oh and, I shouldn't forget, PR told me to tell you, he'll be watching tonight. Yeah. He'll be watching in his locker room. With Cuban Wall. And Mr. Boricua. And Vitamin X. He'll be watching [i]very[/i] closely.

Gulping, Landon starts to get a little antsy.

MADDIX
Good. Good for him. Good to have friends. Yes. I'll... see you in the ring, later.

Reaching behind him and grabbing a hold of Megan's wrist, Landon quickly scoots off with her in tow, Popick watching on with a big smile on his face.

MEGAN
I think we need a new plan.

MADDIX
How about this one- hide until main-event time. Come on.
