[Nic Totopoulous is seen in a gym working out.  He is simply doing arm curls with only forty pounder's to try and build up endurance in his arms.  He stops and puts the dumbbells down.  He turns around and sees someone, who it is is yet to be confirmed.
 

 

Then the man walks into the screen. It's Mark Messier.]

Totopoulous - What the hell are you doing here? p; I haven't seen you in a while.

Messier - Well, it's good to see you again my old friend.  You know, I've been watching quite a bit of UWA television lately.  This TNT Wrestling thing you've gotten yourself into looks like it's working pretty well for you.

Gotten myself into?  Well, as you know I competed in TNT long before the UWA, and it would only be fitting for me to join the TNT stable and try to bring it back to it's former glory.

This is true.  I guess it does only make sense.

Oh you know it does.

But you haven't really been doing so well lately.

Excuse me?

Well, what about that cage match against T-Money for the United States Championship.  I think he surprised a lot of people with that one.  I sure didn't expect it, he's only a new guy, but a new guy with your belt.

Ya, ya, whatever man.  That match was just a fluke man.

I'm not so sure, he has been pretty impressive.

Well do you remember when I wrestled him the first time around?  Ya that's right, I won the match.  Besides, it was a cage match and I've never been good with cage matches.

You won by disqualification Nic.  That's not a real victory.

Please, I hit the Vertibreaker, then I got a two count before Joe Traupman interfered.  T-Money wasn't going to move.

I don't know about that...

What do you mean you don't know?  Nobody kicks out of the Vertibreaker.

Nobody?  I think he might have been the first.

Shut up man, I thought you were my friend.

We are friends, just, I thought I'd try to bring you down off your high horse there a little bit.

High horse?  What are you talking about?

Well, you have been doing some pretty ass things lately, like calling yourself God.  What's that all about?

Oh come on, you know that's just to piss people off.  Did you see how angry those people in the audience got when I said that?  It was great.  Not only do they get angry, but it throws my opponents off their game too.

I'm sure it does, I think it just makes them want to hurt you even more than before.

That's the idea.  They are so angry that it throws off their concentration.

Well, if you say so.  I mean if it works it works, but I just think you're wrong.

Well I'm not.

Fine.

Fine.

So what are you going to do about T-Money on Saturday?

I'm gonna beat him.

Just like that, beat him?

Well ya, that was the plan.  One, two, three, you know how wrestling works.

Yes I know that, but it's going to be a tough match.  I mean, Michael Edwards is in the match too.

So?

So?  He's a hall of famer man.  He's a UWA legend.  He's a top dog man.  He's the best the UWA has to offer.  Now that's nothing to sneeze at.

Achoo!!

Very funny.

What?  I had something go into my nose, I think it was the sweet smell of victory.

Sounds to me like you're more allergic to victory to me.

Ya, shut up stupid.

Serious, I don't think you'll win.  I know you have the talent, I just don't think you're focused enough on the match.

Not focused, I am the epitome of focused.

Judging by that statement I'm going to have to go with no.

Of course I'm ready, don't worry about it.

I'm not worried, but you should be.  And what about Reverend Snow?

What about him?

Well you don't think he can beat you either?

Well, I'm not sure.  It would be a close match, that's for sure.  But who would be the victor is still up in the air.

So then why aren't you worried about him in the match?

Well as long as TNT has the belt who cares which individual has it.

So you're a team player now?

Ya, what's wrong with that?

Just thought I'd never see the day, that's all.

Oh, well here it is, the day.

Well I'm glad that you aren't such an ass anymore.  You are living and wrestling for a greater cause, not just for yourself.

Well thanks, I guess.  TNT means a lot to me, and I will do anything to make sure it gets back on top where it rightfully belongs.

Great, I can't wait to see that.  So what about Freedom Morelez?

He's not in the four way match.

No, on Monday, one on one man.

Oh right, geez, I'm just taking it one match at a time.

You forgot about it.

No I didn't.

Yes you did, I can tell.  I know you Nic, you forgot.

Well so what if I forgot?  U.S. Title strap match versus match against Freedom that is simply a standard match.  I'll prepare for it on Sunday and Monday morning.

I hope so because he's been coming on strong lately.

I know, but it's nothing I can't handle.

Hey, as long as you are on top of your game, I think you'll be alright.

I know I'll be alright.

That's the right attitude, just don't get over confident.  When you do that you tend to not do so well.

Ya, that's fine.  I'll be ready.

Hey, do you wanna go play some hockey after your matches this weekend?

Ya man I'd love that.

Alright, well I've gotta got going, but I'll stay in touch.  I'll let you know if we play.

Sure thing bud, it was good seeing you again.

You too.  Good luck.

Thanks.

Later man.

Later.

[Messier exits the room.]

Wow, it's been a while, but I've got nothing to worry about, I'm set, I think.

[Totopoulous leans over a picks up the dumbbells.  He begins to lift the weights again as the camera fades (camera fades, what else is new?).]
