It's All Happening So Fast!

Ashley Riot sits down on the apron at her favorite wrestling gym, taking a deep breath as she settles down from a training session. Once she catches her breath, she pops open a bottle of water, takes a long swig, and then begins to speak.

"Everything in CMV happens so quickly! Feels like just yesterday I was fighting Scotti on Aftermath, and now people are like, calling me out! I'm so happy that everyone likes me! Being on a stage as big as CMV is way too cool! But, like I said, everything happens so fast! Back on the indies I could go weeks or months without any work! Sometimes I had to get part time jobs to get between bookings."

Ashley jumps down from the apron.

"But here, everything is much faster! Weekly shows- well, usually- and PPVs once or twice a month! And people are noticing me too! Tailcoat Val says I have potential! Isn't that cool? She's so cool, even if she has gained a little weight. It's okay, Val, I used to be chubby too!"

Ashley takes another swig of her water.

"I'm worried about Riley, though. She got really upset the other day when she called me the wrong name! I wasn't offended though, I mix up names all the time. Probably from the brain damage, I dunno... Oh yeah, that reminds me! Janet Torre is back too! I've always wanted to fight her, she's super cool! I was a janitor once too! I never hit anyone with my mop, though... That's a good idea actually!"

Ashley reaches under the ring and pulls out a pink notebook labelled "Things I should hit people with". She pulls a pen out of the notebook's binding, jots something down, and then puts it back.

"Anyways, sorry camera guy, I've been rambling. I just wanted to say to Riley and Janet and Val, I'm really excited and flattered that you've all been so interested in me! Val, especially! To be honest, I don't know a whole lot about you! Why do you call yourself "Tailcoat Val" but you don't wear a tailcoat? Actually... What is a tailcoat?"

Ashley glances off frame.

"Hey Frank, what's a tailcoat?"

"How the fuck should I know?"

Ashley pouts, before shrugging.

"Oh well! Anyways, I'm gonna keep doing what I'm doing! Seems to be working!"
