The EBWF cameras opened up backstage at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee. This was the chosen playing ground for EBWF's Warfare. The King of the Ring tournament had been kicked into full gear and things were about to get exciting. Everything backstage appeared to be rather hectic as Superstars and backstage staff alike were running around trying to complete last minute preparations. The cameras focused in on the double metal doors of the arena that lead into the parking lot. The camera was now completely focused on the double metal doors, almost as if the camera guy knew someone important was about to stroll through them at any given moment. Almost as if perfectly on cue, one of the metal doors was pushed open and in walked none other than Adam Cole. He coolly walked into the building with a certain cocky swagger to every step he took. Adam's dark long hair was tied back into a loose bun at the base of his neck. His facial hair was groomed to perfection and he was basically smiling ear to ear. Adam wore a pair of black slacks with a ironed out, dark maroon button up shirt. The sleeve fabric was rolled up his forearms just a couple of inches below his elbows. He nodded to a few staff members in acknowledgment as he passed them in the hallway with his gear bag in tow behind him. Adam pushed the pair of sunglasses he had been wearing to the top of his head. His piercing blue eyes set straight ahead while he appeared to be looking for the locker room area.
Renee Young: Adam! Adam - Wait up!
Adam Cole heard Renee Young calling out to him and slowed his pace. He turned to face her as she briskly walked over towards him. Renee Young already had her handy microphone in hand and a huge smile on her face.
Adam Cole: I love when a beautiful woman says my name.
Renee Young smiled and blushed as he flashed her a bright white smile and winked at her.
Renee Young: Adam Cole, the rumor mill has been buzzing these past few weeks with rumors such as you signing with EBWF. Many have not been able to confirm or deny this... yet here you are.
Adam let out a slight chuckle and nodded his head in affirmation.
Adam Cole: Yes Renee, I am indeed here, your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. Me being here was kept on the down low because I decided to keep it that way. I got a phone call from Wes Ikeda himself with a damn good offer, Renee. The man is a wrestling genius. He knows great talent, and he knows how to talk numbers. It was an offer I'd have to be stupid to refuse.
Renee Young: Mr. Ikeda certainly does have a knack for aquiring the best talent in wrestling, no argument there. So... this means you are officially a full fledged member of the EBWF roster?
Adam Cole paused and thought about it for a moment and cracked another smile.
Adam Cole: At first I wasn't so sure, it was more of a special appearance for the tournament... but things are still in the works. So for now, I'd say yes. Has the ink dried on my contract yet? No, I wouldn't say that. But that's for another day, and another time. For now, I'm here for the King of the Ring tournament. That's my focus.
Renee Young: Speaking of the King of the Ring tournament, you are booked against none other than Chris Jericho tonight. What are your thoughts on this matchup tonight?
Adam adjusted the strap of his gear bag that rested on his shoulder.
Adam Cole: Listen, I know the EBWF has been Chris Jericho's home for a very long time. He's comfortable here. I'm sure he's sitting back thinking this is going to be an easy one, and he couldn't be any more wrong. You see, I'm Adam Cole and I have dominated any place I go. It will be no different here in EBWF except I am doing this all on my own. There is no Bullet Club, no Kingdom, or Undisputed Era. This is the era of Adam Cole BAY BAY!
Adam Cole pointed his index fingers up above his head as he yelled out "Bay Bay!"
Adam Cole: That's not a promise, it's not a threat... that's just... too SWEET!
Adam Cole threw up the "Too Sweet" hand taunt and held it towards Renee Young. She awkwardly went for the hand gesture and Adam snickered. He dropped his hand back down to his side and laughed at her lame attempt. Adam shook his head at her and continued on down the hallway. Renee watched him walk away and blushed at her blunder. The scene faded to a commercial break.
OOC - Sorry Ben for this lackluster piece. I really wanted to have some fun with this but I ended up with nothing. I tried for four days whenever I had free time and nothing. LOL. I just need to find my groove and adjust as I go along. Anyways I figured this was better than a no show!
