RP for UPRISING, Revolution (Season 2: Episode 5, February 12 2022), vs. Sister-Matic Destruction
BLACK CRUSADE WORLDWIDE
"A is for 'AGAIN?!'"
MATCH PROMO/INTERVIEW SECTION_
"We only won the UPRISING Tag Team Championship less than 3 months ago, and we have ALREADY looped back around the ENTIRE Tag Team Division."
Fade in to PyreBird, arms crossed and exhaling from her nose in a huff.
PB: "I can already feel the disappointment welling up inside of me at how thin this division is, especially when the Trios Division is growing, robust, and waiting to be Conquered by us like we have done with the Tag Team Division, and intend on continuing to do for a very, VERY long time."
Slow zoom out to reveal PyreBird is seated on a chair, and next to her is teammate Kalinda Kriegsdottir.
In front of them is a small table with the UPRISING Tag Team Championship belts on top, and to our extreme right is UPRISING backstage reporter Gretchen Devereaux, also seated.
GRETCHEN DEVEREAUX: "So it's safe to assume that you have...mixed feelings, at best, about your upcoming match--"
PB: "RE-match."
GD: "My apologies, your upcoming RE-match with Sister-Matic Destruction."
KALINDA KRIEGSDOTTIR: (smirking...derisively?) "THIS time however, a new variable has been inserted into the equation: me." (her smirk becomes a cruel, hungry grin)
GD: "And before we circle back to that, it actually brings me to the next thing I wanted to ask you about: your team recently had words on Twitter with the returning Jack Moreau, and he directly accused YOU, Kalinda, of being a hanger-on, so to speak, and aligning yourself with JIRITSU, PyreBird, and the rest of BLACK CRUSADE WorldWide as convenient allies following your loss--"
K: "Swine Flew's loss."
GD: (clearing her throat) "Swine Flew's loss...of the UPRISING Tag Team Championship to them. Despite your responses to the contrary, he still seems to believe that you'll be betraying them, in the same way you *ahem* betrayed Regan Voorhees--"
K: "Correction: in the way JACK MOREAU believes that I may have betrayed Regan."
PB: "In fact, that entire exchange felt a bit like he was very crudely trying to do YOUR investigation, Gretchen."
GD: (clearing her throat and adjusting herself on her seat) "I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about."
K: "You're still trying to get an admission from us about what happened in the match, naturally. YOU still think that I may have...you know."
GD: "Did you?"
K: (grinning, as PB chuckles) "I will simply keep saying what is true: BLACK CRUSADE made a plan to relieve Swine Flew of the UPRISING Tag Team Championship. Other Kallie here and JIRITSU of BLACK CRUSADE pinned Regan Voorhees of Swine Flew to win the match and bring the belts TO the team of BLACK CRUSADE, and following that loss, Regan of Swine Flew was relieved of her obligations to myself, also of Swine Flew, as a partner, and the team of Swine Flew...flew away." (the grin gets wider)
GD: "So WERE you part of that plan though as part of BLACK CRUSADE, Kalinda?"
K: "I'm afraid I must once again reiterate: BLACK CRUSADE planned on beating Swine Flew in that match, and I was indeed a member...of the tag team Swine Flew DURING that match, and upon the CONCLUSION of the match, my allegiance to the coalition BLACK CRUSADE was...prioritized...as it has been since BEFORE I joined UPRISING. And not, as Jack Moreau seems to believe, a convenient new team-up just to continue to call myself one-half of UPRISING's Tag Team Champions. Even though there are 3 of us, and a 4th who signed exclusively to fight as a Trios wrestler, otherwise he'd be the 4th half of the Tag--you know what I mean!" (a long beat) "You're never going to get any of us to say what it is you want us to say about what went down in that title match, and Jackie's clumsy implications, insinuations, and accusations won't either."
PB: "Womp-womp." (she finally smiles, tilting her head mockingly towards Gretchen)
A very long beat as Gretchen does a deep inhale and exhale, both through her nose because her teeth are clenching a bit.
K: "You might want to consider a bite guard for that teeth clenching, Gretchen; and as somebody who is VERY toothsome, I'm something of an expert on that." (She grins again, her perfectly white and shiny sharp dragon teeth causing special-effect gleams but actually happening as opposed to inserted afterward through editing.)
GD: *AHEM* "Which brings us back to earlier: THIS time, when BLACK CRUSADE faces Sister-Matic Destruction, your opponents will be facing PyreBird and Kalinda, instead of PyreBird & JIRITSU. While we all understand that your general game plan remains roughly the same as it generally does, can you -- or rather, WILL you -- offer any insight as to any distinctions, differences, updates in HOW you'll execute your in-ring strategy in this, er...match 1.5?"
PB: "WELL, the thing we CAN DEFINITELY tell you, that you'd have to be blind or a referee to not notice, is that Kalinda here has a tail. It may or may not play a part in our offense, though it probably will. The REST is for you all to find out when it happens." (she raises an eyebrow with a slight smirk)
K: (chuckling mischievously, and putting on a Frau Farbissiner impression) "This interview is over! Time to storm out angrily and indignantly!"
And on cue, Kali and Other Kallie abruptly stand up, grab the Tag belts and mock-angrily storm out from the interview area, leaving Gretchen to sigh defeatedly and sink into her seat, pouting.
GD: (muttering to herself just loud enough to be picked up) "This...this is the job I signed up for."
She shakes her head in consternation as we fade to commercial.
END.
