Should be placed before his match
As we return from commercial break we see The United States Champion President James Freedom walking down the back halls of the Capital One arena in his hometown of Washington D.C. He takes a turn down the hall and that's where he runs into backstage interviewer Jade Riley.
Jade Riley: Well look who just popped up in here! The hometown hero, United States Champion President James Freedom. Freedom, tell me, how does it feel to be back home as a Champion?
Jade sticks a microphone in Freedom's direction.
James Freedom: I'm always home when I'm in America but the capital does have a special place in my heart for various reasons. The people have treated their President well since arriving here earlier in the week.
Jade Riley: I'm surprised you didn't have them give you another celebration after how last week went.
Freedom smirks at the comment and even laughs a little.
James Freedom: Yes. There was no need for another celebration because the time for celebration is over and as I learned last week, you can't really enjoy yourself around here. The great American people already gave me a parade through the city earlier this week so my needs are satisfied. It's time to focus on business. So if you would excuse me, I need to go get ready to secure another Championship opportunity.
Freedom pushes the microphone out of his way and continues his walk down the hall until he comes to a door that says “Reserved for The President”. Freedom smiles with satisfaction, pushes the door open and walks inside the spacious room that has complementary water bottles and fruits waiting for him on the table along with a few cigars that Freedom enjoys. He admires them for a moment but walks past them and heads for his locker. As he opens the door he notices that someone has left a tailor made blue blazer suit behind in his locker room. He curiously looks around inside to see if he can find out who it belongs to. As he reaches into the blazer pocket he pulls out an envelope like the one he had a few weeks ago. On the front of the envelope the letters TMFG are shown. As he goes to open the letter up he gets a knock at the door that draws his attention. He sticks his note into his jacket pocket and goes over to open the door.
James Freedom: I told you once before Jade I’m not answering anymore questions at this time….
But as Freedom opens the door it's not Jade but his tag team partner for the night Jonny Cedrone much to the fans’ delight!
James Freedom: Well look who’s come to get some pointers from their President.
Freedom smirks as he opens the door some more so Cedrone can walk inside. Jonny chuckles to himself a little bit and sports a smirk himself as he closes the door behind him.
Jonny Cedrone: So tonight’s the night Jim.
Freedom’s face grimaces at being called Jim.
Jonny Cedrone: Tonight’s the night that we become Number One Contenders to the Tag Team Championships. Who woulda ever guessed that you and I would EVER have the opportunity to become Tag Team Champions, much less be tag team partners in ANY situation?!
Jonny sees the stogies on the table, picks on up, sits down on the couch and kicks his feet up onto the coffee table and crosses them. Freedom looks dumbfounded at this sight. Jonny sniffs the cigar.
Jonny Cedrone: I’m surprised Jim. Someone of your stature, I thought for sure you’d be smoking some real cigars instead of these cheap ass stogies. I’d have you up to one of my houses and show you some real cigars if I liked you that much.
Freedom snatches the cigar out of Jonny’s hand, who’s taken aback by this action.
James Freedom: To what do I owe this displeasure?
Jonny stands back up and sees the US Championship proudly on display hanging on the hook of the open door of Freedom’s locker. He slowly walks over towards it as Freedom looks up from his cigar, sees where Jonny’s attention is focused and swiftly walks over to the locker. He slowly grabs the Championship just as Jonny reaches the door. Freedom sets the Championship on his shoulder and clutches to it tightly as Jonny simply closes the door to Freedom’s locker.
Jonny Cedrone: You wouldn’t want just anyone to see your personal belongings Jim.
James Freedom: As I asked, to what do I owe this displeasure? And please stop calling me Jim.
Jonny Cedrone: I just came to see if you had any thoughts of a game plan tonight or am I going to have to carry you to a win?
Freedom smirks and then laughs at the question.
James Freedom: You carry me? Such the comedian you are Cedrone but no you aren't needed to carry anyone. Just do what you did last time. I lead us to victory and you sir could be calling yourself a Champion again but not for the one you think.
Freedom shoots a look over to the United States Championship. Jonny gives a smirk.
Jonny Cedrone: No joking here Jimbo! Don’t be so delusional…pal. You know that I have the superior skills between the two of us.
Freedom openly laughs at this sentiment
Jonny Cedrone: Yuck it up Chuckles. We’ll see who gets the win here tonight. Actually, let’s put our silly pride aside and work as a team and get this win. You know, “united we stand, divided we fall” and all that?! But when it’s me who gets the win for us tonight, you’ll understand just how important it is that you’re clutching to that Championship as hard as you are right now! Because you know…
Jonny pats the center medallion of the Championship right before Freedom jerks his shoulder away from Jonny.
Jonny Cedrone: …she’s mine!
Freedom pulls away from Cedrone.
James Freedom: I welcome the challenge! But for now let's focus on making me a double Champion.
Freedom gives Cedrone a wink.
Jonny Cedrone: I’d like to think about it as keeping one of my shoulders warm while the other waits for the US Championship but for the sake of argument, we’ll go with your sentiment. As a team united, let’s focus on getting the chance to fight for then actually winning the Tag Team Championships.
Jonny extends his hand for a handshake
Jonny Cedrone: Those Supermarks have no idea what’s going to hit them!
