The scene opens up to a rather disturbing one; Corey Black sitting alone wearing a black hoodie with the word "HATE" across the brim of his hood, which is up, and camo cargo shorts. That isn't what makes the setting disturbing, however, it is the over abundance of lights bouncing around behind him. Corey is sitting at the bar of a nightclub, an entire dance floor bouncing behind him to the house music. Corey's glass isn't filled with beer or liquor, but instead, Mountain Dew. Nikki Venus walks up and takes a seat beside Corey.
Nikki Venus: Are you sure you want to do this?
Corey Black: I have no choice. I haven't had any income in a while.
Nikki Venus: But you're basically set for life from all the money you've made.
Corey Black: That's not good enough. I went into my retirement plan knowing the consequences, but those same consequences are annoying the shit out of me. I can wrestle all I want because I love it, but there's the sense of satisfaction I get when I earn extra cash by taking out the big names. That's just not happening anymore.
Nikki Venus: So you have to go back into the goddamn underworld to make your money?
Corey Black: It's not making money, Nikki. It's earning cash and respect.
Nikki Venus: Whatever you say, Vin Diesel.
Corey looks at Venus like 'wtf bitch?' She smiles to him, and his face quickly fades to laughter. Soon, a man walks up to Corey and motions for Corey to follow. They walk outside, where a yellow Ford Mustang sits. All tricked out, racing rims, body kit, spoiler, blue graphics, the works.
Driver: You ready for this? Where is your little ricer?
Corey points across the parking lot to a 7th Generation black Toyota Celica (upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/41/TC2004GTS-AP.jpeg), complete with spiderweb and pumpkin graphics. The driver of the Mustang heartily laughs at Corey, who smiles back.
Driver: You're going to take that against me? I have twice the engine!
Corey Black: So you do.
Corey walks over and opens the door to his car, getting in. Nikki is still standing by the door, biting her knuckles. Corey pulls up to the Mustang and shows him a wad of cash.
Corey Black: Three thousand. Down to the bridge and back.
Driver: Ha, too easy.
The driver shows Corey three grand, and they pull out of the parking lot to a stop light. The camera stays with Nikki Venus as the light turns green, and the two cars take off. A minute later, Corey Black's Celica comes flying into the parking lot and spins to a stop with the Mustang a few seconds behind. Nikki and the cameraman happily jump into Corey's car. The Mustang pulls up to Corey's driver side and the driver tosses in the cash.
Corey Black: Half the engine, step-son
The driver shakes his head and peels out of the parking lot. Corey pulls out as well, heading left.
Nikki Venus: Goddamnit, you asshole! Never do that with me around again!
Corey Black: I'm sorry! It's one of the only ways I can make money.
Nikki Venus: One of?
Corey just looks at Nikki.
Nikki Venus: NO!
Corey Black: Have to.
Nikki Venus: No Corey, you don't! Once your team finally takes Gravedigger down, Seth will sign you to a new contract, and everything will be fine again! Believe me!
Corey Black: Oh I believe you, but that doesn't change anything. Don't worry, I have to do a WCF interview soon anyway, I'll just leave you there and take care of business myself.
The scene fades out with Nikki Venus looking out the Celica window nervously.
Fading back into WCFTalk! The Online Talk Show, hosted by Hank Brown, who happens to be sitting in a chair on the set. Two chairs, a table, and a giant WCF logo backdrop.
Hank Brown: Allow me to introduce my guest, Corey Black!
Corey walks out from behind the curtain, wearing the same clothes as he was before in the club and street race. Corey shakes Hank's hand and takes a seat.
Hank Brown: Corey, we haven't heard from you in weeks. What's the deal with that?
Corey Black: Well, usually, management sets up interviews and things for us wrestlers. But, as you know, I'm not under contract, thus, I don't get any of the TV time. I haven't seen my favorite cameraman for a looong time. Good to see you, Bob.
Hank Brown: What have you been doing with your time?
Corey Black: Mainly chilling out. Still on my workout regime, and I've thrown some old extra curricular activities in there as well.
Hank Brown: Sounds interesting, I'm sure we'll be seeing more of that in the time to come. On to WCF matters at hand, though. You're part of the team that will be walking into Explosion to try to take WCF back. How do you feel about your team so far?
Corey Black: Honestly, I don't know what to think. Seth told me he had someone to fill the team out, and it turned out to be Dake Ken, my old New Dynasty running buddy. Needless to say, I'm happy about that one. Logan, though, I'm not really sure. On one hand, he's the friggin' Face of Treachery. But then again, he's the Hotdog Champion of Wisconsin or whatever, too. You can't be too sure which Logan will show up. That frightens me. We're gonna need all the help we can get.
Hank Brown: Do you think Torture will accept the terms?
Corey Black: I don't really know. He's been a complete dick since the New Dynasty days, so who knows? He might decline just to fuck us over.
Hank Brown: You can't put anything past him now. Speaking of Torture, you have a tag match against his running mate, Chris Avery.
Corey Black: This might be my chance to show Torture that I mean business. If I spare Avery as a show of good faith, he might come around. I just don't know. I also have to tag with Logan, again, not knowing which Logan I'm going to get.
Hank Brown: Rumor has it that you've actually been asking WCF management for a match against Mikami, would you please explain?
Corey Black: If you'd go back to Mikami's second promo, he actually had the balls to say I tried my hardest, and failed to get WCF back. Wrong thing to say. I was cheated out of the win. Gravedigger has the numbers, but not the ability. Sometimes, numbers are all you need to win. That's how GD has kept control, using his cronies. Shit is changing at Explosion, the numbers will be even.
Hank Brown: Does that mean you're announcing your bid for the WCF United States Title, considering we even last that long?
Corey Black: Not at all, Hank. I'm announcing my bid to get rid of that overzealous punisher Mikami, and send him back to his homeland where he can try to clean up another broken wrestling company that already has the capability to clean itself up.
Hank Brown: Harsh words.
Corey Black: Harsh punishment.
Hank Brown: Well, that's all the time we have for today. Tune in tomorrow where I'll be talking with Rick Mad. Goodnight folks!
The scene fades out with Corey Black staring into the camera, intent on destruction.
Nikki Venus: Are you sure you want to do this?
