The scene opens backstage of the Moda Center. Brawl is finishing up, but Erik Josten isn't waiting for the end of it. He's walking through the backstage away pulling his luggage bag. What he doesn't see behind him is Denise Essex trying to catch up to him.
Denise Essex: "Erik! Can get I get a word with you?!"
Erik doesn't stop or even acknowledge Denise, he just keeps walking with his head hung low. Denise manages to catch up with him & walks beside him.
Denise Essex: "Excuse me, Erik we all saw tonight Adam Barker give.. ahem.. Citizen Truth a spot in the tournament.. can we get your thoughts?"
Erik Josten: "... no comment."
Denise Essex: "Any comments about your match tonight? Tough loss to Dorling..."
Erik Josten: "... NO comment..."
Denise Essex: "Ok, well, the WGWF Universe has seen you seemingly not be in the best mental shape as of late.. is there anything going on with you?"
Erik stops in his tracks, turns & gets right in Denise's face.
Erik Josten: "AYE, CITIZEN ESSEX, I BELIEVE HE SAID NO COMMENT! NOW BE GONE WITH YOU, NOISY REPORTER!"
Erik backs off, shocked at what just occurred.
Erik Josten: "Denise, I am so, so sorry. I just.. I-I.. I need to go."
Erik turns around and hurriedly walks off down the hallway. Christian Connolly runs up to Denise Essex.
Christian Connolly: "Hey Erik, wait up!!"
Erik ignores Christian and walks out the exit door.
Christian Connolly: "Damn it!"
Denise Essex: "Christian, can you shed any light on what's going on with Erik?"
Christian Connolly: "I wish I could. I'm worried Denise.. really worried about him."
Christian shakes his head before walking off back down the opposite hall as the scene fades to black.
Denise Essex: "Erik! Can get I get a word with you?!"
Erik doesn't stop or even acknowledge Denise, he just keeps walking with his head hung low. Denise manages to catch up with him & walks beside him.
