JL: Apter. I don't really know why I agreed to do this? I've got nothing to say to you or these idiots out in those seats?
BA: Well, maybe you agreed to come here because you have been suspended by Eddie Marlin for your actions towards Tracy Smothers.
JL: I have been a bit bored but this no one more boring than Tracy Smothers. Ha ha.
BA: I'm sure everyone would love to know why you chose to shoot a Fireball at Smothers the last time you met in the ring?
JL: Look. This sport is tough. Things happen. Tracy Smothers needs to realize when he's in the ring with me that I am the hottest attraction in this sport. Too hot to handle and too cold to hold. Now I understand that he actually wants to wrestle me again, is that right? Next time this two bit promotion pops open its' tent in Memphis, Tennessee that he wants to face me in a Texas Death Match. You must be dumber that I even thought you were. You will meet your end with a one way ticket out of professional wrestling for good. Now if you'll excuse me. I need to be anywhere but here.
