Office of Seleana Zdunich
Zdunich Zoological Gardens
Los Angeles, California
9:01 AM PDT
Inside the office, Seleana is getting ready to head out when her daughter-in-law, Haylie Jo “halo” Annis, comes walking into the room.
Seleana Zdunich: Heya, HayJo, how’s it?
Halo smiles at her mother-in-law.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Hey, Mama Sel, how’s it goin’?
Seleana nods at the few papers left on the desk.
Seleana Zdunich: I am almost ready to head to Flagstaff for Blaze of Glory.
Halo nods her head understandingly.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Yeah, I remember how big a deal that was when I worked for SCU.
She shakes her head sadly.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: I miss that place. I never got to team with Jane and Cheech there. I dunno why, you’d think with all the GRIME stuff that having a three person team would have been a good idea but it just never happened. Gutter Ballet never got to see the light of day there.
Seleana almost laughs.
Seleana Zdunich: It is like the mWo with Zenna, Eavan and I, ja?
Halo nods her agreement.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: That never did really happen, did it?
Seleana shakes her head.
Seleana Zdunich: No.
Halo shrugs.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Guess that runs in the family.
The two share a laugh.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja.
Halo shrugs.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: So, how do you see this match y’all gonna have, Mama Sel?
Seleana takes the moment in and sighs.
Seleana Zdunich: I have heard it called things that are not what you wish your match to be called.
Halo frowns.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: You ain’t serious.
Seleana nods.
Seleana Zdunich: We have been declared an afterthought at best and the pissbreak at worst.
Halo folds her arms in disgust.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Y’all ain’t no pissbreak, Mama Sel. Who the hell are you in there with then, Philo and Gunge?
Seleana smirks at the Fraggle Rock reference.
Seleana Zdunich: Ariana Angelos and Georgie Robertson.
Halo just stares at her mother-in-law as if she just sprouted a second and third head.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: But, thoe are both championship type competitors. Ain’t Ariana won a couple too?
Seleana nods matter-of-factly.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, she has.
Halo nods in acknowledgement.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: And Georgie’s been in competition for them?
Again, Seleana nods matter-of-factly.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, she has.
Halo nods and then points at Seleana.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: And I know you done won a couple yourself.
Seleana nods matter-of-factly one more time.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I have.
Halo looks away, shaking her head before looking back.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Then what in the unholy fuck is this afterthought bullshit?
Seleana shrugs.
Seleana Zdunich: Some of us are not well thought of lately and this match has no direct championship stakes.
Halo just stares back looking almost ready to explode.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Well who gives a rat’s free fuckin’ ass if the jack-me-off-and-show-it-to-everyone championship is on the line or not? Y’all have all been in the mix before, ain’t nobody should be blowin’ this off like it’s the chance to walk off and piss the beer out!
Seleana nods.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, that is me as well but I cannot help if others see things differently. All I can do is go into the match and ork to change minds there.
Halo nods in both agreement and understanding at her mother-in-law’s plight.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Give ‘em hell, Mama Sel.
Seleana smiles and embraces her daughter-in-law.
Seleana Zdunich: I will. I will not allow this thought to top me, especially when I know Aurora will be watching.
Halo smiles with pride.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: That little girl ain’t lettin’ any of us give up, is she?
Seleana glows with the same pride.
Seleana Zdunich: No, she had faith in all of us.
Halo smiles gratefully. .
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Bless her heart.
Seleana nods.
Seleana Zdunich: She loves us and we her. I love you, HayJo.
Halo smiles and hugs her mother-in-law again.
Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: I love you too, Mama Sel. Knock ‘em dead!
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I will.

Random Building
Flagstaff, Arizona
3:24 PM MST
The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich standing outside a building with a giant Historic Route 66 sign outside of it built into the wall. Seleana looks around, nodding to herself at the surrounding area.
Seleana Zdunich: This is poetic for this match, ja?
Shrugging, she looks around her again.
Seleana Zdunich: Many people would look at Ariana, Georgie and I and say we are little more than afterthoughts that used to be something or should have been but got supplanted by better things.
A grin comes to her face as she looks at the sign behind her.
Seleana Zdunich: This city is full of such things. It started with the railroad and then had Route 66 come in. They fight until the interstate highway system take over.
She nods and pats the sign.
Seleana Zdunich: And think of what they both used to be.
Turning to look into the camera again, Seleana
Seleana Zdunich: The railroad usd to dominate travel in this country. It ruled the country and was the way goods and people moved great distances for a long time. Nothing could compete with it and it was able to lay claim to be the greatest champion in the land.
She spreads her arms wide to encompass everything that can be seen.
Seleana Zdunich: Whole cities grew around it, taking their place as great centers of everything and making the railroad even more powerful as they did.
She shakes her fist.
Seleana Zdunich: Nothing could challenge it.
She sighs heavily.
Seleana Zdunich: Then Route 66 came about and the automobile rose up. The very things that had once given it power now cast the railroad aside because Route 66 was much faster and easier. More towns grew into cities because of being with Route 66. Songs were written for it and it usurped the railroad's place and the railroad quickly became…
She nods sadly in acknowledgement.
Seleana Zdunich: An afterthought.
She glances back at the sign.
Seleana Zdunich: Route 66 became the king of everything for a time as well. People worshiped it like a god.
She nods almost sadly at the sign.
Seleana Zdunich: And then the interstate system came into being. Airplanes came to help challenge as well. Buses and cars that had once stuck to roads like route 66 abandoned it for the interstates. Towns that had been growing were suddenly left behind as others grew and prospered near the interstates.
She reaches up and places her hand on the sign.
Seleana Zdunich: Route 66, that had once been the champion of champions that had dethroned the previous champion, was now an afterthought as well.
Seleana nods dolefully at the sign.
Seleana Zdunich: Ariana, Georgie and I have been looked at like this as well.
She turns to face the camera again.
Seleana Zdunich: We have all been on the rise and touted as things that should take over only to have others come along usurp that position out from under us.
She nods pointedly.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja?
She nods, a small smile coming to her face.
Seleana Zdunich: So now we stand in this match that others will dub the “pissbreak match”
Seleana shakes her head in disgust.
Seleana Zdunich: They make hens out of feathers.
She turns and points to the sign behind her.
Seleana Zdunich: People call us afterthoughts but this is an opportunity to rise again in a different way just like Route 66 and the railroad have.
She steps back from the sign and nods to it knowingly.
Seleana Zdunich: Now, they are tourist attractions here in Flagstaff. The old depot is still a train station but it is also now the welcome center and visitor center. Route 66 is plastered all over town and the songs have given it new life to attract people to come see why they were written to begin with. They were given an opportunity for new life…
Seleana turns and looks gravely into the camera.
Seleana Zdunich: As are we.
She nods.
Seleana Zdunich: Ariana, Georgie, we can look at this as a waste of time and a waste of our talents. We can see it as a nothing match with nothing at stake. You are welcome to that opinion if you wish it, but I…
Shaking her head, Seleana points to herself in the chest.
Seleana Zdunich: I refuse to see it that way.
She points again into her chest.
Seleana Zdunich: I see this as an opportunity to put everyone else on notice. This is our chance, my chance to steal this show and remind people what we were and what we can be again!
She nods, her hand balling into a fist.
Seleana Zdunich: This is it, Ariana and Georgie. This is our opportunity to show the world, to show the roster, to show the company that we are not just warm bodies to take up space and keep the ring in use while those that actually matter wait their turn.
She shakes her head.
Seleana Zdunich: No! This is my chance to remind everyone of why I am here. This is your chance to do the same. Call it an afterthought, call it what you want, but I do not see it that way.
She points first to herself.
Seleana Zdunich: I am not an afterthought.
Then to the camera
Seleana Zdunich: And neither are either of you.
She nods and then slaps the sign behind her.
Seleana Zdunich: We are attractions that people pay to see and it is time we remind everyone else of this. If we are to go down, then it will be in such a Blaze of Glory as to make others stand up and take notice!
She pounds her fist into her other hand.
Seleana Zdunich: Välkommen till djungeln. I will see you there and I will make certain this is not an afterthought match!
