The scene? The American Airlines Center's parking lot in Dallas, Texas. The EBWF cameras rolled on as a familiar face walked into the building... Trent? Had his black cap backwards, he wore his official TRENT? Algorithm T-shirt, lightly worn jeans and black Chuck Taylor shoes... Trent? Carried his Money in the bank Briefcase on his left hand as he opened the doors which lead to the backstage area... Trent? found himself standing in front of the very professional, very eager and very new EBWF Interviewer, Renee Young. Trent? Smiled politely as he nodded at Miss Young.
Trent?: You're the new dudette... Right?
Renee Young: Yes!
She nodded a little. Trent? reached out to fist bump the newest member of the interviewing team... Trent? would try to move along, but the microphone in the blonde's hand and her posture told him she might be on to something.
Trent?: What can I do for you?
Renee Young: Trent? I've been waiting for your arrival... I wouldn't forgive myself if I didn't get an exclusive interview from the brand new Mr. Money in the bank!
Trent? Ran a hand along his chin and nodded.
Renee Young: Cool! I mean... Thanks for your cooperation.
Renee smiled and ran a hand along her hair.
Renee Young: Ladies and Gentlemen, joining me is none other than Mr. Money In The Bank! Trent? Who will be in action tonight alongside Syxx, as they take on Rated RKO... Tell me Trent? Have you been in contact with Syxx?
Trent? shook his head.
Trent?: Not really... I sent him a DM via Twitter... But I don't know if he knows what a DM is. I was hoping I would find him tonight before our match.
Renee Young: Have you considered the fact that Teamwork will play a crucial part in your match tonight?
Trent?: Yeah... I haven't talked much to Syxx ever since he returned, but I do know a fair share of EBWF history... I know what he has done for the business... I also know how Syxx can get out of control easily... As a matter of fact he should rename himself "Syxx?". We all know what kind of a wildcard he can be... And despite his recent run ins with Ambrose, I am still not sure which side is he on... Now, if you have been a faithful follower of my career, you might know of the serious trust issues I've had along my tenure here... I will not risk it on one night... I will not be turning my back on Syxx, no matter what he does, what he says...
Renee Young: What about your opponents?
Trent?: They're EBWF's red hot tag team right now... If they were competing back when Zack and I held the titles we would've had a much harder time clinging on to those... You have two former world champions... To EBWF Vets, the longest World Champion in EBWF's history... A Former Royal Rumble winner... WrestleMania Main Eventers... You name it, they've done it. Rated RKO is by far the most succesful Team since DX or the Thrillseekers... Sure, I've scored a couple of pinfalls in the past against guys like John Cena... But nowhere near what Rated RKO has done. Now, people might think that I have a grudge against Randy for knocking me out of the King of The Ring tournament... But lets' face it, he was the better man that night... And I didn't end up empty handed!
Trent? raised his briefcase for the camera and smiled.
???: Well, well well, if it isn't Mr. Money in the Bank himself... Showing off, presuming...
The camera slowly panned out to show Paul Heyman, who had just walked closer to Trent?. He looked at the briefcase and smiled.
Paul Heyman: I knew I'd find you here... Before a camera... Running your mouth. Now, now. I'm not here to discuss on how you got lucky and won that Briefcase last week over my boys, who are both former world champions and even more deserving than you...
Heyman shook his head.
Paul Heyman: I'm not here to tell you any of that... But, as a businessman... And given the massive moaning and crying you've always done after someone attacks you backstage... Which tends to happen a lot, thanks to your arrogance... I thought I would come out here and give you a fair warning. I hope you are aware you just put a huge price on your head... I hope you look around before deciding where to go... And I hope you don't cry and piss and moan when someone stronger and more capable decides they deserve that briefcase more than you do...
Trent? stood in Heyman's face and looked into his eyes.
Trent?: What a friendly advice... But I happen to be, well aware of the circumstances. I appreciate your sincere warning, bub. But trust me, I won't make the same mistake twice... So you can go tell your guys, tell the Shield, tell whoever you want... That things have changed.
Heyman turned around only to collide in against the massive humanity of The Big O.
The Big O: Something wrong?
Trent?: Nah, Heyman was just wishing me good luck tonight. Right?
Trent? Patted Paul Heyman in the back and walked away with the Big O as the scene faded to black.
