If Maryse was going to to have a big ass throne before she even won the Queen of the Ring then Paige was going to make sure she had one as well. Except that she was going to go out of her way to make her over-sized monarch chair even more fantastic and over the top. Paige's royal seat was black and looked like something that could have been in a torture chamber. It had just the right amount of goth accoutrements to make it stand out like a jack 'o lantern on one of the spikes and enormous bat wings sticking out of the back. It was even propped up on a set of wheels so some poor, unfortunate soul could push her around. That person was Tensai who didn't have much trouble shoving the throne forward seeing as how he was nearly seven foot tall and three hundred pounds. But he was still pretty hung over after his night out with Paige and the dark accessories she had placed on him were showing signs of wear and tear.
Paige: Push faster, Tensai. I can't risk getting any of this horrible, Canadian sun in my eyes.
Paige was caring a black laced parasol and used it to shield her from harmful UV rays as it was abundantly apparent by looking at her that she was enemies with the sun. The same, white bunny from her last appearance in Tensai's promo remained in her and slumbered away. The arena wasn't too far off in the distance.
Paige: I have to show up to the arena with this and look much cooler than Maryse's skanky-ass.
Tensai exhaled deeply but continued his pushing.
Tensai: ..Should you not..be more concerned..with your..first round match..against..Velvet Sky? She strikes me as a very formidable opponent.
Paige: I am concerned. It's my number one priority, as a matter of fact. This is exactly why I'm not walking. I'm conserving all of my energy for that match. An opponent like Velvet means I need to be at 100%. This won't be easy.
Tensai: ..I..almost imagine..that you..and your..blond haired..Nikusui..friend...would get along with these so-called Beautiful People. ..Strong..independent..driven, career women..
Paige: First off, Maryse isn't a Japanese monster that sucks the flesh off of men. ..I guess she kind of is, honestly, but she isn't Japanese. Secondly, I guess in some alternate universe I might want to hang around with those two but in this reality I haven't had a lobotomy yet so it's not happening. I'm pretty sure I would slash my wrists if I were stuck in a car with them for five minutes and not just for attention.
The exhausted import from Japan slipped around to the front of the throne and started to pant with his hands resting on his knee's.
TensaI: ..Their have been..some comparisons drawn..between your two teams?
Paige: We're nothing alike. Angelina and Velvet basically have the exact same personality. And, while they look like maybe two of the biggest whores I've ever seen, I'm pretty sure Maryse has gone down on WAY more strangers than both of them combined. Which is a pretty high number when you consider that Angelina and Velvet's combined number is in the triple digits.
Paige was not a happy camper now that her throne was no longer mobile.
Paige: Why isn't this throne moving?
Tensai: Paige-Chan..I'm exhausted..I'm hung over..and I've been pushing this throne for what seems like two miles..
Paige: Let me explain something to you, Tensai.
The Diva from Norwich, England stood up in the throne.
Paige: I can't lose this match. If I don't get past Velvet I'm never going to hear the end of it from Maryse. Not that our draws were exactly fair. She got BROOKE TESSMACHER and I got Velvet Sky who at least is sort of famous and had a title here at one point. And her record when she was last here was probably better than 2 and 50 like Brooke's sloppy ass. She was a pretty big deal. I beat Velvet, I get Torrie Wilson who can barely string together a coherent sentence anymore and I get to relax a little. I need YOU to be on top of your game because Velvet has that big, steroid junkie guy with that horrible,faux-hawk mullet thing in her corner. I need you as my muscle in case he attempts to get involved alright? I'm the reason you are going to win your match so don't be so selfish. We can both be winners on the same night. Wouldn't that be lovely?
She leaned down and placed a soft kiss on top of his enormous bald head to motivate him. He was going to counter with the logic of being hung over and exhausted going into a KOTR match even this small display of affection had him roaring and ready to go.
Paige: You do want me to win, don't you? You want me to beat Velvet, right?
Tensai: More than anything.
Paige: I like you, Tensai. Your support warms my heart.
Tensai's own heart was all aflutter and his eyes almost sparkled.
Paige: Now move this god damn throne.
Tensai: Yes, Paige-Chan! I understand!
Tensai shuffled his way behind the throne and began to push it once more with an added sense of purpose.
Paige: WAIT.
Paige held up a palm as the increased speed of the throne suddenly came to an abrupt halt. There was a store in the distance that had caught her eye.
Paige: Go in there and get me a--
The scene cut suddenly before Paige could finish her sentence. We were now inside of the arena and Todd Grisham paced around an entrance. He knew Paige was coming inside because, well, a big ass throne being pushed by a large man in raggedy gothic clothes was kind of impossible to miss. As the gloomy throne made it's way inside, Todd let out a shriek.
Todd Grisham: Why do you have a chain saw?!
True enough, Paige had a bright red chain in her hands, revving away. Somehow this did not disturb the slumber of the rabbit. She began to speak over the swirling blades.
Paige: I'm not crazy or anything. I'm not one of those goths that put dead birds and cats in their dressers. I just think that the combination of the rabbit, my outfit, this throne and a chainsaw is very ascetically pleasing. It makes a very striking image. Sublime.
Todd Grisham: Y-YOU CAN'T BRING THAT TO THE RING?!
Paige: The rabbit? His name is Snowball, Todd.
Todd Grisham: NO! THE CHAINSAW!
The interviewer's hands were clasped on the sides of his head until the revving finally shut down.
Paige: Did I say I was going to bring it down to the ring you enormous virgin? I don't want to hack Velvet up. These outfits are expensive and getting whore blood all over them is NOT cool. Could you take this, Sweet T?
Paige carelessly tossed the chain saw over to Tensai who ended up catching it but almost fumbled it to the floor a few times.
Paige: I'm bored with it now.
Todd Grisham: ..A-Alright..well..I guess everyone knows you are facing the returning Velvet Sky. Her partner Angelina has already advanced and Velvet was one of the top diva's when she was active a year or so ago. Angelina was able to defeat a very game Natalya so I don't think ring rust is an issue for them.
Todd was still rather shaky about the whole chain saw incident but managed to carry on.
Paige: Here's the thing, Todd. I was born into a family of wrestlers. They are all a bunch of worthless, British hicks but they can fight. I'm obviously the best of the bunch because I'm the only one in a promotion that means something. If you want to talk actual ability and ring prowess, I'm probably the best female wrestler in the company. No lie. I can do a lot of cool moves and do more than flail around and cat fight. I've only had a few opportunities to really show what I can do alone but I get to tonight and I'm going to hurt little Vel-Vel. I need to win this tournament to raise my stock around here. Trish Stratus and Natalya thought I was CANADIAN and I know cognitive thinking isn't exactly their strong suits but I want AND need that spotlight.
The raven haired beauty gave a little sigh of tedium. She was already growing bored of this set-up.
Paige: Velvet's had her opportunity and now it's my turn. I'm the future here and in ten more years I'll still only be thirty so EVERYONE had better get used to me. On top of that, I'm wrestling someone who calls her ass, or maybe even her vagina, a "pigeon". I'm not entirely sure. But a pigeon is a rat with wings and that leads me to believe that Velvet is, surprise, surprise, a little slow. If it wasn't already painfully clear by looking at her. So, to summarize, I'm going to win because I'm a much better wrestler, I want it more and Velvet refers to her genitalia as a bird for reasons that baffle the general public. Anything else?
Todd Grisham: Well, you have Tensai to potentially nulify Rob Terry but what about Angelina? They could try and monopolize this tournament.
Paige: That's where Maryse comes in. Bitch gets involved, bitch gets smacked down by my slutty French friend. And if anyone is monopolizing this thing it's us. If The Beautiful People don't like it they can go choke on a fat one. Tensai. Let's move.
The mighty Japanese Warrior bowed to Todd-Sama and slipped behind the throne to push it forward again after that proclamation.
Paige: Don't bow to him. He's beneath us. I'm also going to need a drink when he get to the locker room. All this traveling is exhausting.
Tensai sighed heavily once more as the throne continued on down the hallway.
