Stacy Clark is facing the camera, microphone in hand, in the OCW backstage area.

Stacy: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, fresh from the OCW Men's Future Investment Ladder match we have Colin Locke, welcome, Colin, how was it out there for you?

Colin has obviously gone through a bit of a war. He wipes some sweat from his face, and stretches out his back and arms as he talks.

Colin: Tricky, not gonna lie, Stacy. I mean, luckily I didn't take too many bad spills off the ladder, but, yeah, jesus, what a match.

Stacy: Now, John Carter's been something of a rival for you in the past, what's going through your head right now, seeing him win a guaranteed title shot whenever he wants it?

A smile creeps up on Colin's face upon hearing John's name.

Colin: John's doing well, man. Genuinely. A lot of parallels with us, both rookies coming up around the same time, won our first titles with the same move, but this time last year, he was getting some criticism. People were saying he's not the wrestler he claims to be after his match with DOC, but he's coming back up with the goat simulator stuff-

Stacy: -G.O.A.T Academy?

Colin: Yeah, them too. What I'm saying is, by the time he cashes in, he'll have proven himself to be the real deal regardless of what we think of him as a person. Can't say I'm happy, but, eh, it's not undeserved, right?

Stacy: Right, so I suppose we have to ask, where does that leave you?

Colin: Stacy, you know I've got ambitions, but I know my place here. Bunch of people want a world title, and I've got some people ahead of me in the line if I want to challenge for one.

Stacy nods and Colin takes a thoughtful pause before looking back over to Stacy.

Colin: Luckily for me though, all five of those people are challenging for a world title this Wrestlution. Even luckier, I've got a decisive win over one World Champion, and a win over half the people in the main event. I don't need a briefcase to be a threat to both champions over the next few months. See you later, Stacy, gonna find somewhere comfy to watch the show.

Colin and Stacy both exchange vague 'goodbye' gestures, and Colin walks off camera.

Stacy: There you have it, strong words from Colin Locke, looks like we'll be in for an interesting few months as Scoop Season continues! Until then, let's get back to the show, we've got many more great matches for you all over this weekend!

As Stacy finishes her address, the camera fades, segueing into the next segment of the night.
