Marquee is seen back in HIS "conference room" at Caesar's Palace. A few times security has come into the room and asked him to leave. He's always seemed to talk them out of throwing him out.
Today, he's dressed in a black button up shirt, black slacks, and red tie. Seated to his right is his "ahem" personal secretary Eve Angeles. She is dressed in a black short skirt and white blouse that bareley seems to be buttoned. Her dark rimmed glasses hang down on her nose just a little.
Marquee: I'm going to need you to take a note for ESPN and make sure that it gets faxed to them ASAP.
Eve: Whatever you say "boss".
Marquee just looks at her and grins upon her response.
Marquee: Take this down.
Eve picks up the notebook and pen and begins to write as Marquee dictates.
Marquee: Dear Jay Crawford, Micheal Wilbon, Tony Kornheiser, and the rest of the uneducated staff of ESPN. I would like to apologize ahead of time if this letter seems a bit rash. I really am looking at your best interest on this matter. I've decided to compose this letter to keep you and your special guests from sounding like idiots in front of the millions of people that watch your shows.
Marquee looks over at Eve's pad to make sure that she is keeping up with him.
Marquee: I know that professional wrestling has never been a strong subject with ESPN other than a few classics shown late nights. I'm here to educate you on what I suppose is a new subject to you. Wrestling is my business and you can feel confident that I am an expert in this matter. First I would like to address some of the hosts and guests that have decided to make Nathan Lucas your "golden boy". While I admit you may know more on the subject of mixed martial arts and brazilian style fighting than you would about wrestling, please try not to get the two sports confused. Nathan Lucas WAS, be sure to capitalize the word "was", somewhat successful in the sport of mixed martial arts. That sport has very little to do with World Pro Wrestling. Nathan Lucas has had some training in pro wrestling by his mentor James Raven, but he is not the expert that I am.
Marquee stops for a moment to allow Eve to rest her hand for a few seconds before continueing.
Marquee: As further proof on the matter, I must tell a story. Just a little over a year ago, the Sterling Agency decided to hire on a former mixed martial arts champion. I'm sure you guys have heard of the name Ulie Red. He was a former welterweight champion in Bushido MMA. They pushed him really hard into a transition from mixed martial arts to the world of pro wrestling. Ulie had a few successful matches upon beginning his career. At one point, I myself saw potential in him, even to the point where I tried to help Benjamin Silverman and Sterling in training him. I took him under my wing for a couple of months, even trying to change his style to make him more marketable. In the end I saw that there was no real talent for him in the world of pro wrestling. At that point, I was forced to stop with my training and teaching, in which Ulie Red became very angry with me. This in turn forced my hand in ending his career in wrestling.
Marquee pauses again.
Marquee: You okay? Your hand cramping?
Eve: I'm okay.
Marquee: Good. We have more to go, you sure?
Eve: I'm fine.
Marquee waits a few more seconds and even pours Eve a glass of water. He gives her a second to take a drink before continueing again.
Marquee: Now as an expert in the area of professional wrestling, I can forsee the same thing happening to Nathan Lucas. He will fail upon his transition into the new sport and his future will be grim to say the least. His mixed martial arts training will help him in a few of his struggles with some of the lower card wrestlers, but he will not be able to compete against real wrestling superstars such as myself or my brothers in New Era. So with that being said, I think it would be in your best interest to speak sparingly of Nathan Lucas when referring to WPW, the Roy Lee Rumble, or pro wrestling in general. You may even want to run a disclaimer about the opinions of your guest host, who seem to have already made themselves look foolish by claiming Nathan Lucas stands a chance at winning the Roy Lee Rumble or the World Championship title.
Marquee takes a drink of water, Eve follows.
Marquee: Make sure you skip a line now so that they know my next comments are about Frost.
Eve: Okay.
Marquee: Now, I would like to adress another mistake on your behalf towards the subject of the Roy Lee Rumble and Frost. I noticed that one of your panel of guests actually called Frost a "legend in this business", meaning the business of wrestling. I can't deny that Frost had success in Hybrid Wrestling Organization. I'll also admit that short term Frost seemed to be good for WGWF. Those federations, though, pale in comparison to the calibur of World Pro Wrestling. Just because Frost had success in some, at best, second rate fed, does not mean he has the talent to become a real contender in WPW. World Pro Wrestling since it's founding has prided itself on having the best talent. A proving point of that would be when they decided to hire myself, or even more recently when Roy Lee himself hand picked me to be his representative in the match that was named after himself. While, I was hand chosen by the most powerful man in the wrestling business, Frost was chosen by an aging retired commentator. Allen Rozell, while I respect what he has done in the past, could even be said to have some mental issues in his elderly age. Frost, while he may help to sell a few tickets or a few extra pay per view buys, really has very little to offer World Pro Wrestling. The discussion on your show ESPN First Take, was looked at as a bit premature. Your guests Steven Smith and Skip Bayless made themselves seem like they have very little knowledge on the subject. Skip another few lines here and you may even put the following in italics when you type this up.
I have decided to offer you help in repairing all the damage that has possibly been done to your network by their discussion. I feel that I can revive the name of ESPN and it's expertise in all sports by being a guest on one or more of your shows. At the moment, I've acquired a conference room at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada while awaiting the Roy Lee Rumble pay per view. It would be in great interest for you to send one of your hosts and do a live episode of "Pardon The Interruption" or "First Take" with me being a guest and doing an exclusive interview. In this help though, your hosts should be made aware of all the participants of the Roy Lee Rumble as well as my accomplishments in wrestling. This would help them in the interview process. You might even have them add that I would be their prediction to win the Roy Lee Rumble, as that will be how things turn out. They might even possibly admit to jumping into discussing wrestling in general prematurely, admitting that they know little of the subject. After reviewing some of my matches and talent, they will feel better versed in the subject. This could easily help out your small network, not only by gaining you millions of viewers who would tune in to see myself, but by making your host look more educated. Consideration in this subject is time sensitive due to the date of the Roy Lee Rumble. Please do not hesitate on this matter.
Marquee stop and looks over at Eve.
Marquee: Sincerely, "The Next WPW World Champion" Marquee. Now have someone type that up and make sure it gets faxed to ESPN center as soon as possible.
Eve: Yes boss.
Marquee: I love it when you call me that.
On that Eve stands up and gives Marquee a quick kiss on the cheek and exits the conference room to get on her tasks. Marquee just sits back with a confident smile on his face.
