::As Mitchell laughs off Robert’s reaction to the brawl in the back, the camera feeds back to the catering area where Alexa was entering view in full wrestling gear.  She was ready for this match it seemed. Taking note of the food table, she stopped to sample some kind of dip with a carrot.::

::Kelsia was suited up and ready to get this show on the road. Little did she know she was going to bump into the other two ladies she was here to compete against. After all she was trying to avoid such matters seeing she had plenty to say to them both but had kept quiet during her last promo. Coming to the table to get a bite to eat before their match would commence, she noticed Alexa there. Funny thing this was turning out to be.

::Aurelei, apparently running along the same lines as Alexa given her own ring attire, made her way in not moments after Alexa did. Though she saw her and Kelsia right off, she said nothing to either of them. She was too geared towards the match, and simply reached for and procured a bottle of vitamin water, spinning the cap off and taking a sip as she wandered over to one of the monitors, getting a glimpse of the crowd for the first time tonight.  Rowdy bunch they were...::

::Alexa looked around, eyeing each of the ladies.::

Alexa: "Well, well, hope your all ready. Especially you, new girl. I am glad you held that anger and fooled us. Now it's time to wow us, huh?"

::Looking up she noticed both of the women there. Glancing between the carrot-eater and the water drinker she shook her head.::

Kelsia: "It's funny how we all have so much to say when not face to face with one another.  Although I could say plenty to you both right now....I think it would be best to save it for in the ring. How does that sound ladies? After all, once everything is said and done well all know who will be walking out of here tonight the winner. After all…like you just said Alexa…I am here to wow you both tonight."

Aurelei: "There’s a fine line between arrogance and confidence, Kelsia, but you do make a decent point.  There's no sense in spouting off when bell time is around the corner."

::Aura's voice was unnaturally soft, and she took another ginger sip of the water with motions that were perfectly calm.  Pre-match jitters?  Frayed nerves?  A restrained desire to pummel either of her opponents while they were within her reach?  Not hardly::

 

Aurelei: "Talk is cheap.  The winner has already been decided.  It is how we choose to get to that point that matters.”

 

::Alexa looked first to Aurelei, then to Kelsia, laughing for a moment for responding.::

 

Alexa: "You both are so sure it will be you.  Remember nothing is chosen before the fight is fought. Just be wary of what I said and be ready."

Kelsia: "Well you would say something like that, Alexa. Guess I will be seeing you both in the ring soon enough."

::It seemed she had lost her appetite now. She turned to walk away from them both but she spoke still none the less.::

Kelsia: "I can only speak for myself. I am ready. Oh, by the way....don't fill up on carrots and water....you might lose it soon enough."

::With that Kelsia walked out of view heading back to the locker room to get herself stretched for the match to come.::

Aurelei: "One of them laughs and one of them huffs.  All it takes is a differing point of view and an unassuming manner and all mental training goes to absolute hell."

::Aurelei was commenting more to herself than anyone else, vocalizing the mental notes that she was taking on each opponent. She did, however, shoot Alexa a glance before briefly nodding in the direction of Kelsia's departure as if to ask 'is she for real?'  Alexa watched Kelsia with a keen eye. She looked to Aurelei and just shook her head::

Alexa: "I can't wait to put my elbow in her mouth...Aurelei, as always a pleasure. We both know where we stand. Good seeing you again."

::Of course, Aurelei didn't ignore Alexa's offered hand...shaking it briefly before making her trek down the hallway...but she didn't verbally respond to her friend's comment.  Game face time, tunnel-vision time...Aurelei was in the zone.  After being left at the table with carrot in hand, Alexa popped it into her mouth.::

 

Alexa: "Those two may think they have it won, but I'm just as serious. Time for a new Alexa."

::She continued to eat as the feed returned to ringside with Mitchell and Robert.::

 

MS: “Those three had better be ready, because they’re up next!”

 

RJ: “Let’s send it up to Heather Lee for the introductions!”
