Hunter Becomes the Hunted . . .

It is following Friday night Genesis episode seventy-nine that we're taken backstage to find Lisa Evans ready to give another one of her riveting interviews, this time to none other than Sebastian Vachon and Nikola Ivanovich of RISE. The CMV universe has not had the honor of hearing either of these men speak yet, their leader in Sean Silva usually taking the lead in that regard, but as he's visually absent, no doubt preparing for his clash with Bob Luger at Home Coming for the Alpha World championship, tonight, they're on their own.

Evans
Ladies and gentleman, joining me at this time, two-thirds of the group known as RISE, Sebastian Vachon and Nikola Ivanocvic. Now, as Mr. Vachon's English is still developing, he will be speaking his native tongue of French, which is why we have Mr. Ivanovic here with us here to translate. So Sebastian, the CMV universe wants to know, why did you attack CMV's Rising Star champion, Josh Wolf, earlier in the show?

Speaking in a thick Serbian accent, Nikola reiterates the question to Vachon, who takes only a second to answer in a surprisingly cool and calm voice.

Vachon
J'ai fait ce que j'ai fait pour faire une déclaration à moi. M. Dashing dit que je travaillais pour le compte de Sean, mais non, je lance le coup d'envoi pour ce championnat Rising Star, Josh est tout simplement malheureux de le retenir.

Nikola
I did what I did to make a statement of my own. Mr. Dashing says that I was working on the behalf of Sean, but no, I'm gunning for that Rising Star championship, Josh is just unfortunate enough to be holding it.

Evans
So you want a shot at the Rising Star title then, however, Josh has made several promises to the likes of Freddy Osbourne and Nick Bunn, saying that they'll be first in line for that opportunity.

Vachon
Cette décision n'est pas à la hauteur de Josh Wolf, il appartient à Dave Turner qui, après m'avoir aperçu un seul, mais deux champions internationaux le mois dernier, a finalement vu mon vrai potentiel et m'a accordé un match de titre contre Wofl la semaine prochaine!

Nikola
This decision is not up to Josh Wolf, it is up to Dave Turner, who after seeing me pin not one, but TWO International champions last month, has finally seen my true potential, and has granted me a title match against Wofl next week!

Evans
Next week? Wow! Well, you heard it here folks, Josh Wolf makes his first defense of the CMV Rising Star championship next week, against The Grenoble Nightmare, Sebastian Vachon!

Vachon
Oui, et Josh, je veux que vous sachiez que ce que je vous ai fait ce soir pâlira par rapport à ce que je vous fais la semaine prochaine, je deviendrai le nouveau champion de l'Étoile montante, et RISE reprendra vendredi soir, Genèse!

Nikola
Yes, and Josh, I want you to know that what I did to you tonight will pale in comparison to what I do to you next week, I will become the NEW Rising Star champion, and RISE will takeover Friday night Genesis!

Sebastian glares into the camera, almost as if he's peering right into Josh Wolf's soul, before he and Ivanovic take off, leaving Evans to smile that big smile of hers, Genesis wrapping up . . .
