Taufik: You have the ability to prove people wrong and that’s a good thing but one tonight you aren’t facing Nathan James, you’re facing a man that is holding the MPW Television champion and if you think that for one second that you could defeat me, well no heart feeling there buddy, but I’m no Nathan James. I can still talk to you later or hang out with you because you seem like a good guy to hang out with but when it comes to facing me, you my friend will actually feel like what others will suffer when they face me every single time, and that is pain.
[M.A.N. furrows his brow, obviously deep in thought]
M.A.N: Why the heck not?! He seems like a nice guy and god knows I could use all the help I could get. Just one thing I need to check.....
[M.A.N. dials a number on his phone and puts it up to his ear]
M.A.N: Hello, Randy? It's Max. I got a question for you; is it bad to get a drink with someone 3 days before you have a match with them?
(FADE TO BLACK)
SCENE 2
[M.A.N. & Taufik are sitting at a dive bar laughing heartily. M.A.N. is obviously very intoxicated while Taufik is calm & collected]
Taufik: You know something M.A.N? You're one funny guy and I like you a lot. But hey, I gotta know something.
M.A.N: Well okay! But if it's about me peeing my pants during the match with Nathan....
Taufik: No, no! You kiddin' me? I don't need to know about your potty problems. It's just...
M.A.N: What? What is it?
Taufik: You've really NEVER wrestled before?
[M.A.N's face suddenly becomes nervous, fearful even]
M.A.N: How did you?....I mean NO! No, I've never wrestled before last week.
[Taufik smiles and raises an eyebrow]
Taufik: Your sharpshooter was the best damn thing I've seen. Hell, you could give "The Hitman" a run for his money!
[M.A.N. Relaxes a bit. After a few seconds he smiles. Taufik returns the gesture]
M.A.N: Let me show you something.
[M.A.N. reaches into his wallet and pulls out a musty looking photograph]
Taufik: Holy *bleep* is that you?
M.A.N: Yup! First, last and only match in WWO. You see, my mom's cousin knows a lady who's brother met the sister of a guy that had an aunt who's stepfather knew Ms. Biguns from a steak eating contest at Kowloon....
Taufik: So she gave you a shot?
M.A.N: She brought me to developmental. I worked my butt off until one day I found myself battling Chaos in a dark match.
Taufik: That freak with the caribbean shirt and straw hat?
M.A.N: Indeed. And well....well....well....
Taufik: Well what?
M.A.N: I failed.
[Taufik laughs]
Taufik: So what? I've lost to Jason X. I've lost to Christian Carter. I've lost to practically everybody.....
M.A.N: BUT YOU'RE STILL THE DAMN TELEVISION CHAMPION AND I'M STILL A BIG FAT LOSER DAMMIT!!!!!!
[M.A.N. snaps at Taufik so loudly the entire bar begins to stare. His face turns red as he mumbles an apology & faces the TV Champ]
M.A.N: I'm awfully sorry Taufik. I just need to win. I really, really need to win. Because if I fail once again, there's no where else to turn but rock bottom.
[Taufik's expression transforms from one of pity to a sly grin]
Taufik: I don't care if you're a titleholder; you'll always be a champion. Don't worry about Sunday. Let's have some fun before we get some hunnies!
[Taufik signals for the waitress]
Taufik: Yo waitress! Bring us both a Corona. It's time we get this party started!
