Fresh off their second win as a team, making these ladies 2 and 0, they were leaving the backstage area, both of them high of their victory. Waiting for them is backstage interviewer Kendra Miller. She smiles to them.
Kendra Miller: “Impressive win tonight ladies. Now with all the trash talk Jason did I have to ask what was your mindset like going into this match compared to what it is now?”
Abby Watkins: “It's about the same really. The thing is, everything we said before the match rings true. Jason used pretty language, petty insults, and not-so-thinly veiled threats to try to get under our skin. The thing is, we said it didn't work, and we just showed that it didn't. When it comes to all of the words we sling back and forth before the match, they don't matter when the bell rings. They are two entirely separate entities. Sure, we try, just like he tried, to get under each other's skin. We try to gain a psychological edge. However, Jasmine and I have a very important thing in common. That is, realizing that words are just that, words. At the end of the day, you only talk about your positives. The match itself is about finding the negatives. Through two matches, we have found out opponent's negatives and they haven't found ours. It's that simple.”
Jasmine smiles at what Abby had to say, nodding her head.
Jasmine Delfonzo: “Exactly. Words are just words. Actions speak a hell of a lot louder than words and Abby and I are all about action in that ring.”
Kendra nods her head impressed with what the REDEFINE Tag Team Champions had to say.
Kendra Miller: “Very well said...it looks like you are both here to make a statement to everyone at Redefine. What is that statement exactly?”
Jasmine Delfonzo: “Quit looking at us as two rookies who don’t know what we’re doing because we clearly got it down pat and know what we’re doing so far. Granted it is a learning process. We also have that something that works well together. We work great as a team.”
Abby Watkins: “It isn't just working together as a team though. If you are going to stand across the ring from us the thing you need to know is that you have been weighed and measured. If your name appears on the card next to ours, we have watched your matches. We have listened to your promos, past and present. We have done everything in our power to know exactly what it is that you are bringing to the table. So, if you want to consider us to be rookies, and nothing more, that's fine. It means that you are walking in blind. Remember that when you are staring up at the bright lights of the arena after you have been beaten, because rest assured you will be beaten.”
Kendra Miller: “Thank you ladies for your time.”
Fade Out.

[Devin St. Claire is interviewing backstage at a live event with Kendra Miller]
KENDRA: Welcome at this time, one half of The Movement, Devin St. Claire! Now Devin, last week you came up short against Faolan Reid in a Non Title Match. Tell me about that?
DEVIN: Well love, its really simple. Last week, Faolan Reid was the better man. Last week, he out wrestled me-and gave me my first lost here in REDEFINE. I hold absolutely no ill will toward him. He’s a helluva bloke-and him and I will do this dance again.
KENDRA: Well this week Devin, you and your partner, Geki Nitoh have the chance of a lifetime.
DEVIN: Aye, don’t we now? We’re facing Coast 2 Coast, Jasmine Delfonzo and Abigail Watkins-for the World Tag Team Championship! It’s my first title opportunity ever-and I’m not about to let this one go unnoticed. You see, Geki and I-we share a lot with those two lasses eh? We share a passion, we share a drive. We share a purpose-and thats to prove the world wrong. To prove that we are some of the best in this industry. We are the future of this sport, this business and this industry-and the future? Well it begins now!
KENDRA: Are you ready for your title opportunity?
DEVIN: Kendra, love, I was born ready. Abigail, Jasmine-be prepared….because this weekend in Newcastle, in MY hometown, infront of my family, my friends, the people who saw me enter a wrestling ring for the very first time…they’re gonna see me capture my first championship. They’re gonna see me and Geki, win our first titles-not just in England or the US-but period. To me, that’s a moment I’m going to cherish for ever. No disrespect ladies…but my time, the time for this Movement….is now. The future begins in Newcastle….

Abby sits in front of the camera, wearing a white tank top. Again we find ourselves in her bedroom, with Abby using her laptop camera to broadcast the video. Behind her, on a shelf on the wal, sits her half of the tag team championships. It being in plain view was clearly not a mistake, even though she doesn't immediately acknowledge it.
"Devin St. Claire, you are unlike anyone that has been across the ring from me. I am going to say that goes for Jasmine as well. Unlike past opponents, you seem like a genuinely nice guy. In your interview you were extremely complimentary, so I am not going to get nasty. I am not going to demean you, or threaten you like I have done in response to other people. See, I am a nice person. I only raise my voice, or throw insults when I feel attacked, and listening to your words, I don't feel like that at all. Instead, I feel like this match is going to be the hardest of my career, thus far. Others have tried to get in my head to twist me up. With those people, it is easy to talk them down, and easier to do what needs to be done in the ring. I only have one problem with you, and that is that you are going to make Jasmine and I the bad guys."
She looks mildly annoyed, and shakes her head at the fact that it puts Coast 2 Coast at a disadvantage. Even worse was the fact that there is nothing that either team can do to change it.
"You chose to get this shot in your home town. That is fine, because as a challenger, you should get to pick your shot. However, in doing so, you are sending Coast 2 Coast into a hostile environment. Every one of our matches have been fought while being cheered. At every turn, we have known that the fans are behind us, and that is extremely motivated. You have taken that away from us. You have stolen part of our advantage. Maybe that is why you can sit back and be so complimentary. You do not want to ruin any hometown advantage by giving the fans any reason to turn against you. If that is your strategy, then I applaud you for your line of thinking. That is pure genius, despite the fact that I see through it."
She shrugs it off, not wanting to dwell on the negatives.
"This is going to be a damn good fight, regardless of who is getting cheered. Jasmine and I will push through the disadvantage with the fact that we are practically connected at the hip. In a short time, we have proven our teamwork can overcome any disadvantage. That is what we are going to have to rely on when it is time for the match to start. We have to trust ourselves. If we do, you will lose."

Jasmine was at a local gym near the hotel she was staying at in Newcastle, Great Britain. She was being shown around by the gym owner. She smiles, chewing on her lip as she listened to the accent of the man. After he was done she walks over to the camera crew and smiles wide.
"Wow. I really like it over here. The accent over here is so much different than the accents that people have back home. Everyone is friendly too. Really like it. I also like the fact we’re in your hometown Devin. That’s gotta be such a rush for you. Getting a title shot in your hometown?"
She walks over to her gym bag and sits down on a bench.
"You and Geki must be pretty stoked. I know I am pretty excited that my first title defense is in another country. Yeah, I said first. You see, this isn’t going to be a loss for Abby and I. We are just as determined to keep these titles as you and Geki are to win them. No offense. Surely you understand. You have shown us nothing but respect, which I appreciate and will give you the same respect in return. "
She licks her lips some before she continues, leaning back some.
"You may think this is time for The Movement, but I beg to differ. Now just isn’t your time. Coast to Coast is still going strong. You see as Abby said this is going to be a very hard match for us. In fact the people here at this gym don’t even know that I’m facing you Devin for gold because my title is back at my hotel room with my mom. Who is keeping it safe for me. I don’t want to be bombarded with hatred because I’m here to kick one of their native countrymen’s ass all around the ring. "
She reaches into the bag pulling out a hair tie, pulling her hair back into a ponytail.
"Sneaky of me? Maybe. But it’s also sneaky of you to pick your hometown for this match when you challenged us. Just saying. But as Abby said. That’s your right. More power to you. Do you know why?"
She gets a devious look on her features.
"It will make beating you that much better. Trust me. When they say “And still REDFINE Tag Team Champions… Coast 2 Coast.. Abby Watkins and Jasmine Delfonzo”.... It will be worth it just to see the look on your faces to see that it was pointless to have this match in your hometown where after this weekend you won’t even be able to hold your head up high. "
She scoffs at that camera.
"See you guys soon."
She gets up and puts her gear bag over her shoulder, walking towards the locker rooms.
