Sweaty minutes after the roster filled brawl in Slam's ring, Logan takes a bit of time to sit down for a one on one with WCF interviewer, Hank Brown. The two relax backstage in a quiet private room. The camera gives Hank full attention as he begins his introductory to the interview.
Hank Brown: Nearly ten years ago the WCF created a full entry roster match, eliminations were determined by pin fall or submission and the winner would be decided on the last entry not to be eliminated. This match, which, was later dubbed War, pays a testament to the victors endurance and has been easily talked about through the years to be the roughest match a wrestler can take part in if he survives the nail digging road to victory. The War is traditionally held in every carnation of WCF, and finally, in this carnation.. it's only a mere week away. In the past, the War's winners have always seemed to be an unpredictable outcome, it's a true match that lives up to the anyone's game saying. Before, if the world title was vacant, the War winner would be awarded the belt. The opposite, however, the victor reserves a chance to face the world champion. We've discussed favorites for this match just as we have in past Wars. Now, surprisingly, the two time War victor, Logan, may be considered more of an underdog this time around. First off, let me just say, it's been years since the two of us have had an official sit down. It's great to see you, Logan.
The camera turns to Logan whom is doing anything but paying attention. The star has his feet propped up on the table, relaxing, watching a football game.
Logan: No-- Romo!
Slamming his fist into the couch.
Logan: Argh.
After a bit of swearing, Logan turns his eyes to Hanks.
Logan: Could you get me a drink?
Hank Brown: Good ole' jokester, Logan.
He really wanted a drink. Realizing Brown wouldn't be up for the fetch, Logan shrugs remaining seated and thirsty.
Hank Brown: So, Logan, do you have it in you to win a third?
Logan: To win a third War? Yeah, sure--
Pausing a bit, Hank takes the opportunity to cut in questioning Logan's seriousness of all this. Logan continues, not letting him.
Logan: --it's not too late. Think back to 2006, then, people thought it was too late in my career to win another War. However, after giving Dake Ken a round trip tour to Connector City and back.. I did. Winning a War, heck, just surviving a War to make it to maybe the last five or so doesn't rely on sheer skill, exactly. The War isn't going to care how big Tank Reaper is or the size of Anna's boobs or how fast you are, it's not just a psychical challenge, it's a mental one too. You have to be willing to free yourself from everything else, it's just you alone in a ring with fifteen or so other people. By alone I mean you can't be thinking about what whose going win the nights ball game, if you'll look fat on television, or if you remembered to feed the dog before you left. It's you, only you and the only thing you should be thinking about is surviving each and every sweat pouring minute you're in the ring. Survival of the fittest in it's best show cased example. If you aren't mentally prepared for the endurance breaker the War gives you, you're not going to last long. Especially if you're favored to win it, people will be gunning at you from all sides on a non-stop continuous twenty four seven knuckle bleeder. It's War, Hank, literally.
Hank Brown: Having won two of these hard fought matches before do you feel you have an edge over the other entries?
Logan: Well, I know what to expect when you're in the middle of a tightly filled ring full of flying fists and feet, but, being that I already have a match scheduled before the War.. that hardly gives me any edge. M'm, you could look at my match with Lerch as a warm up, maybe.
Hank Brown: That's debatable. Seth did defeat you at Revenge--
Logan: I fell off the turnbuckle and landed awkwardly!
Narrowing his eyes.
Logan: A corpse could've pinned me.
Hank Brown: Do you think any of the reasons, including the reason you're not held as a favorite in War be due to the lengthy level you are currently at in your career?
Logan: Eh. I hate this subject, really, I do. I'm not old, washed up, or at a loss of memory. If anything, I'm in better shape now than I ever have been. It's only natural for people to compare your skills back to a different time when you might've had done better things. But, really, the only thing I can really say about that is.. things work out and sometimes things don't. For example, rewind six years back, I was less skilled then I am now but more successful. Mainly because at the time Seth and I were aligned, we had ToT, and I could get away with.. well, really, whatever I wanted to. Now, however, I'm on the other side of the playing field. Things are just a little more difficult now, especially when the owner can freely deny championships you rightfully won. It's all political crap.
Hank Brown: Speaking of Seth Lerch, he surprisingly granted you a rematch. Do you feel confident to walk out of that bout a United States champion?
Logan: Of course.. it's Seth Lerch-- yeah! He beat me last month. He did, yes. I'm not going to say that with honor or anything, I mean, it wasn't exactly like he just came out and out wrestled me. He won the lottery last month, he knows that. We all know that. This Sunday, my eyes aren't leaving his sight. Seth Lerch will NEVER get a victory over me again, never. Rather he gives me his all or not, it doesn't matter, it'll be chewed up and thrown right back at him. I guarantee you that boudle won't be able to keep my shoulders down for three seconds, not again, no, this time.. that's impossible.
Hank Brown: This Sunday, Seth Lerch versus Logan.. one more time. It's been a pleasure, Logan. I have to move onto other guests. Anything you'd like to add?
Logan: M'm...
Rubbing a forefinger and thumb over his chin taking in a deep thoughtful moment.
Logan: H'm..
A pondering look still covering his face.
Hank Brown: Wel--
Logan: Oh!
His face brightens as if a light bulb had turned on above his head.
Logan: SHUT UP!
The scene fades.
