Scene opens.

We See The Shark and Stu-E at The Shark podcast room.

(The Shark): Hey there guppies! Welcome to the Shark Podcast! It's going to be a fin-tastic episode today! Cause today we have someone other than Wolfy for once! Please welcome my upcoming partner for Ringmaster and when we go through the tag team matches my opponent. Please welcome Stu-E Price. How are you doing Stu-E?

(Stu-E): I'd be a lot better if your stupid ass didn't just cost me a match, but I'm not the type of bastard to hold a grudge

(the Shark): Well jaws... I apologize. I wasn't even thinking much about matches. I was thinking about my anger for Prof. Hoff. Definitely, after he tortured me like he did. So I had a lot of anger towards him, just like you had for him as well. So I surely hope you don't hold a grudge and I hope we can shake fins and make up especially before ringmaster as we should be able to work together for it.

(Stu-E): You've got a lot to learn, for all you know I was about to kick him square in the nuts while the referee was distracted, and before you could say 'research this' I'd have nailed him with a Stun Cutter and took the win. Like I said, before, my focus wasn't on him, it was on the tournament. He'll pay his price once I'm finished with that, as far as you're concerned, I'll forgive you, as long as you impress me in Ring Master.

(The Shark): Sorry again. As for Ring Master, I'll definitely impress you.I'll even be a challenge because we will make it that far. Speaking of Prof. Hoff however, how do you feel about him? I know you two got into a rumble because he even messed with your daughter. Are you worried about what he might try doing next?

(Stu-E) No, I ain't worried. Dealt with far worse from bigger people than him in all my years in this messed up business. As soon as Ring Master is done, I'll won't be knocking on his door, I'll be smashing the ####er down and dragging that sorry excuse out into the middle of the ring to have some old fashioned revenge. I don't need chemicals to choke a bitch out, all I need is a tazmission and while he's losing consciousness I'll be whispering in his ear every second he's going limp to see if he can count and remember how many seconds it takes to leave somebody living the rest of their lives as a vegetable.

This clip then plays.




(The Shark): I'm aware you're not worried about your own safety with Prof. Hoff, but what about smaller people? Such as your daughter? When I saw that footage of you three backstage I was extremely scared till I saw you were there in time. I'll be honest I fear the time whenever someone smaller doesn't have a guardian angel Stu-E nearby.

(Stu-E) Not all small things are defenseless... Take the Slow Loris, for example, only about 37cm tall but produces a toxin that can be fatal... And yes, I had to look that up once I knew I was coming on here!

(The Shark): I was about to ask if you've been talking to Wolfy lately. haha! Wolfy will be so proud. However, let's get onto Ring Master. we will be first teaming up against Tobias Clarke and Maniac. What is your prediction on our opponents? We have two guys that have a giant history of being nothing but cheats. However yet they can't get along half the time, then we have Erica to think about with how she was kicked out of the tournament and Erica and Dream Masters history of getting involved with Maniac. I'm kind of curious what your prediction is on what events will probably happen?

Stu-E looks surprised, but smirks

(Stu-E): Two massively underrated people for drastically different reasons. Clarke is underrated because of his cockiness while Maniac is underrated because of his past actions. When I've been in the ring with Maniac, I feel I brought the very best out of him, so for you, it's an ideal time to learn on the job about this business. As for Clarke, he's just one of those people you love to punch in the face, for no real reason. I'll have to do my best to not misjudge my swing, and crack his nose open with the point of my elbow. As for Erica, we've surprisingly not had an issue. She's mental, and I've called her out on it when I've spoken to Maniac in the past but she's pretty much stayed away from me. In the grand scheme of things, her mind should be on Michelle and Sean because karma will visit you when you least expect it. As for what's going to happen, I don't waste my time on possibilities, I'll go with the flow and see what happens. All I need is a split second and a Stun Cutter, I don't need to maim these guys to advance.

The Shark gets a look of oh shit across his face, and this clip plays.




(The Shark): Fair enough. I'm excited to learn and I'm excited to learn from you. Well, I made a mistake our first match will be Kratos Payne and fallen. How do you feel about those people?.... we won't edit this by the way I want the people to know how much of a mess it is here at the Shark podcast, HAHA!

(Stu-E): Wondered how long it would take you to realise, and if you were man enough to admit you were wrong! I agree, don't edit it out as I need people to see just what I've got to work with...
I've got nothing against Kratos, we've never had any sort of disagreement so I'm excited to wrestle him. I can't say the same about Fallen, though.
I blame him for what Erica did to Michelle, this whole mess starts with him because she saw what Fallen did to her and watched what happened afterwards. The very fact the twat is still in this business and isn't paralyzed told Erica all she needed to know, that she could do what she wants and once the voices quietened down, she'd continue her career.
So, I'm really looking forward to ripping his head off, every attack that lands on his face, I'm dedicating to Michelle. And I know Laney, can't wait to see Fallen bleed at my hands.

(The Shark): I know exactly that's what's going to happen. I believe we will get through both teams. I know I said Maniac and Tobias by mistake but who do you think will move up with Maniac and Tobias vs Jeremy and Causehell?

(Stu-E): I don't care. Waste your time focusing on one team and they don't go through is just shitty preparation. Best way to get ready is just accept everybody wants that title, and they're gonna try and beat you like a bastard to get there. Best scenario, they have a time limit draw and both teams are out!

(The Shark): fair enough. Looks like we're running out of time so my final question do you have a statement for anyone out there or something you wanna say to the fans before we log off for today?

(Stu-E): Running out of time? Really?... Wasn't even worth the taxi fare to come over, you keep that red light on and keep the tapes rolling.

(The Shark): Hey if you want to keep going I'm sure we can. But let's remain with the same question any statement you wanna make?

(Stu-E): I came back into this business for the money, but it turned into something I could never imagine. Admittedly without a big title to chase after, I was left a bit bored and had thought of retiring on the down low but with the return of the Ring Master tournament and a World Title, it's given me purpose to continue.
I feel at my age, after starting in this business in 1997 that this is my swansong, my last big hurrah before I'm ready for the old heap with all of the other retired wrestlers. If I don't win this whole tournament then maybe it's time for ol' Price to call last orders after never truly making it to the top of the pyramid on such a big stage.
If I get to the final, and I lose, I'll no doubt cry. And if I get to the final and somehow win, I'll cry too. So either way, I know when that final bell rings, I'm going to be an emotional mess so I'll need some big hugs from my DILF girls.

(The Shark): So would you say this year's Ringmaster would be one of the most important ones to you?

(Stu-E): It's the last thing most people will probably remember of my career. You're only ever as good as your last match, your last title, your last big win. I will never be someone who burns out and hangs on too long. I'll never have people pointing at me saying, I remember when that guy was winning titles years and years ago, now he never wins a match.

(The Shark): Well we'll definitely miss you. Do you think after retiring from fighting matches you'd try doing something else within HWA? Maybe commentary or managing wrestlers? I know your daughter is very interested in HWA would you ever manage her if she decided to turn to this business?

(Stu-E): I don't know, not sure if I'm that well thought of to be considered a mentor or trainer. Commentary wise, they would have to have a disclaimer about anything I said, with my sense of humor so I don't know if that would work.

We'll see what happens, she is already itching to bust out a few moves, I'd support her 100% if she took it seriously enough...

Thanks for the vote of confidence, by the way, you cheeky bastard.

Wolfy: (The Shark): HAHA! Has Laney already come up with a wrestling gimmick?

(Stu-E): I ain't joking...

Do you...


Really think...

I ain't winning this thing, and I'm about to retire?

(The Shark): No I don't doubt your chances of winning but I don't doubt the chances of Laney wanting to join HWA in the future either... But one day, We all retire you're going to and one day I'm going to it's just a matter of time. No harm in talking about it.


(Stu-E): I see your gums flapping but it looks like your arsehole is twitching from where I'm sitting, pal.

Stu-E slams his fist on the table.

(Stu-E): I'm gonna ask you one more time.

Do you think Stu-E Price.

England's Favourite Wrestler.

The Stun Cutter Captain.

The Daddy They'd All Like To ####.

The purveyor of the Price Tag.

The greatest wind up merchant since Roddy Piper.

Is going to win Ring Master?!

(The Shark): Chill out guppy. Nowhere I said you were going to lose. If you wanna fight me fine, but at least get along with me until we fight through those two tag team matches when we go one on one

(Stu-E): Oh, so now you want to fight me? You bring me here to insult me and challenge me?
Say something!
Don't just sit there with that dumb look on your face.

This clip then plays.




(The Shark): What the hell are you talking about? You're the one yelling at me like you wanna fight me.

Price bursts out laughing.

(Stu-E): You dumbass, I'm just messing with you!!

Stu-E reaches under the table and brings out 2 beers.

(Stu-E): It's my initiation, I enjoy pushing people's buttons first, shows me who their character is.
You should have seen your face!
Why do you think me and Steve Austin are such good friends?

This clip then plays.




(The Shark): HAHA! Jawses I thought hell was gonna break loose at the Shark podcast for a minute. However, how is Stone Cold off camera? Is he like what you see on camera?

(Stu-E): Not really, if you're on his right side. Same as everybody, really. Such a fountain of knowledge and an untapped mind for this business, he certainly helped me out when I was getting started, that's why I invited him to the show.

Price looks at his watch.

(Stu-E): Almost time for me to get out of here, actually. I've got to go pick Laney up.

(The Shark): Oh Jaws. Well, it was really great having you here. I hope to have you on again. Anything else you wanna say to the audience before you go?

(Stu-E): Don't believe the hype, The Price will be around a lot longer than this Shark fella will have you believe. And don't forget, ladies, that prized DILF seed is in stores across the country!

(The Shark): awesome we'll see you all again. On The Shark Podcast have a Fin-tastic night!

The scene fades to black.
