*Jay Phillips is backstage with Mark Blood, who recently attacked NRWL Champion Slam Jackson during a celebration. Mark Blood is sweating with a towel over his head. He has just come from the gym.*
Jay Phillips: Mark Blood, the NRWL fans have been abuzz over your recent attack on Slam Jackson. You two were friends. What were you thinking?
*Mark Blood raises an eyebrow and shakes his head.*
Mark Blood: What was I thinking? Were you even listening? You were there. I told everyone what I was thinking when I did it. The NRWL has had some talented guys come and go over the years, just like any company. The problem is that there's a lot of guys like Slam Jackson out there who spend more effort into their goofy, out of ring antics, than the ring work itself. For whatever reason, they get praised for it! Frankly, it disgusts me.
JP: But there's room for both. NRWL realizes true ring talent. People like some of that interaction outside of the ring as well. NRWL does a good job of making a well rounded product, I think.
MB: That's the other problem. The fans are programmed to eat that stuff up. It's a joke. My goal is to give the fans a real sportsman to look up to. I'm going to make this a respectable sport once again!
JP: So this attack was to challenge Slam for the title to somehow, what, purify it?
MB: Eventually. I made an attack on the biggest offender out there to make a point. There's a lot of people who need to be cleaned out and I want all of them to know I'm coming. Yes, I will win the NRWL Championship and give it the respect it deserves but my mission is bigger than that. I'm here to make a real difference!
JP: Can we speak about someone who you had a recent run in with? Bruno Kowalski beat you in your last match and he did it showing off. Was that in response to your challenge to him?
MB: Bruno Kowalski was one of the few people in the NRWL I really respected. I did nothing but offer him a good match and show him a few things in the ring. How does he repay me? He steps on my chest and flexes while he pins me! What an insult! I never would have done that to him. I have my goals but before I get to them, believe me, I'll make sure he gets what is coming to him.
JP: Strong words from Mark Blood. How will Bruno Kowalski, Slam Jackson, and the rest of the NRWL respond? I'm sure we'll find out soon!
