The scene opens in the backstage area of the Roanoke Civic Center where WGEF was going to be broadcasting Smackdown! from the following night. As usual a collection of the superstars booked on this week’s card had chosen to arrive early and get in some last minute preparations for their respective match.  One of those individuals was none other than WGEF Co-Owner Trish Stratus Jericho. Trish hadn’t been seen around a WGEF Arena since her announcement regarding the match between her husband Chris Jericho and Deacon Havok, but she was not one to negate obligations. Especially when it came in form of defeating someone that irritated her. And John Adams fit that bill. Trish made her way inside the arena carrying her two year old daughter Crystal on her hip. She started down the hall where the superstar’s locker rooms were located; heading for where one could only guess was her office. As she rounded the corner she saw Drake Striker leaning against the wall talking to someone on his cell phone. She offered him a quick wave as she made her way past him. A few moments pass and she reaches her office. She places her hand on the knob, twisting it to the right and gently pushing it inside. She steps inside the room, sitting Crystal on the floor beside her toys and makes her way over to her desk. She reaches for the stack of contracts in front of her. As she starts to read the first one the door to her office starts to open. Figuring it was someone coming to give her grief, Trish rose from her seat ready to yell at whoever was on the other side of the door. Finally the door opened all the way and Trish’s assistant Karen made her way inside. Trish let out a sigh as she lowered herself back into her seat. Karen closed the door behind her and made her way over to Trish’s desk taking a seat in the chair in front of her. Karen: Well I wasn’t expecting to see you come around an arena till Smackdown. Trish Stratus Jericho: What on earth for? Just because my life is a complete mess at the moment doesn’t mean I’m going to put my career on hold. Besides I’m finally getting a shot at John Adams and as much as he’s irritated me lately I’m not about to pass that up no matter how I feel. Karen: I know but are you sure your head’s going to be fully in this match and not on what’s going in your personal life? Trish Stratus Jericho: (smirks) Of course my head’s going to be fully in this match. This is John Adams we’re talking about here. The man can only concentrate on one thought at a time and since I’ve finally proven to him that I trust his sorry ass and will go through anyone to advance in this tag team tournament that doesn’t leave much for him to whine about. Karen: Well unless things miraculously change between now and tomorrow it’s going to be a much easier night for you than you’re anticipating. Trish Stratus Jericho: Let me guess, the idiot has nothing to say and hasn’t shown his sorry face yet? Karen: So far he hasn’t. Trish laughs. Trish Stratus Jericho: Imagine that. You haven’t smelled smoke around here have you? Karen: No why? Trish Stratus Jericho: Just checking. I know how John gets when he starts thinking and I don’t run to run the risk that he’s sitting in his locker room thinking up something all new to bitch about. I didn’t smell anything when I came in nor heard the smoke alarms bit you never know with some people. Karen: You’re awful you know that? Trish Stratus Jericho: I can’t help it, with him it all comes naturally.  Do remind me to stop by Courtney’s office sometime and thank her for this opportunity. I may despise her ass but hey I have to thank her for this. Karen: You thanking Courtney is something I never thought I would hear you say. Trish Stratus Jericho: Yea well, I never thought she would do something so nice for me. You know though, I going to have to be careful and hurt dipshit to much or else I’m going to have to go through this tag team tournament all by myself until I get eliminated, which if I go through it alone won’t be long. Karen: If he doesn’t show you get to choose a different partner. Perhaps you could get someone that you actually like. Trish Stratus Jericho: And have to listen to him bitch about how I did it on purpose just to get rid of him…I think not. I kinda like listening to his little bitch fits. It gives me something to laugh about Speaking of it that dipshit better show up. I’ve been looking forward to this night for far to long to be robbed of it because John’s a chicken shit.  Yes an easy win would be nice but I would much rather have some fun with him. You know me and my fun. Karen: Of course I do. Trish Stratus Jericho: Oh well not much I can do but sit here and wait. Karen nods as she rises up from her seat. Karen: I’m going to make sure everything’s going alright while you work on those contracts. Trish Stratus Jericho: I don’t know what I’d do without you. The two women share a laugh as Karen makes her way across the room. She opens the door, disappearing into the hallway leaving Trish to her paperwork as the scene ends.
