In the interview area, backstage at the Sahara Events Center, Grace has caught up with Rain Blackheart after his tag match with Devon Bishop in which they were victorious over CJ Walker and Nathaniel. Bishop has beelined for the Black Hand locker room but Rain seems more than happy to grant Grace a few minutes for an interview…
Grace: “Rain, you and Bishop had a very competitive match against Nathaniel and CJ Walker, how was it to have a victory after your losing your last 2 matches INCLUDING losing the Sin City title to Pixi?”
Rain: “Grace, let me be very clear… Yes, there have been some missteps over the past few shows, nothing to be proud of but nothing to really dwell on wouldn’t you say? The Black Hand moves forward setting things as they should. Devin and I did exactly what we do best, and that is dominate and rise above the expectations of our opponents.”
Grace: “And what about the other half of the Black Hand, the ones with the championship belts who were defeated by Team Sp!ke in the main event? Does that change the dynamic within the group?”
Rain: “It changes nothing. We take our losses like our victories, they happen and we move on. What everyone saw is what many of us had been saying and expecting – CJ Walker abused his power to the point that even as Madam Wu’s hand chosen lap dog had to smack him upside the head and send him back to his 2 room doghouse. And no one is going to miss him, again. He either gets fired, suspended or just out right quits so much that technically he’s just a part-timer here in UPW. Yes, he cost Diaz and Miller a victory but it’s small potatoes compared to the big picture. Rated M are still Tag champs, Kid Diaz is still the UPW World Champion, so what is really lost? Sure Team Sp!ke now have a victory with an asterix beside it, and what’s that really going to get them? A tag title shot? Probably not since Pixi has her hands full defending the Sin City championship.”
Grace: “And what about you? On the next card the D20 will decide who will take the third spot in the triple threat Sin City title match on the upcoming Friday Night Free for All, do you want to be added to that match? Perhaps use the opportunity to regain the Sin City belt?”
Rain: “Jeezuz! Pixi sure does have a thing for 3 ways doesn’t she? I mean I’ve seen the web cam footage but c’mon! Can she not confuse her wrestling with her personal activities? Look Grace, here are the facts, one on one Pixi can NOT beat me. And that is a rematch that should have happened for a long time but it looks like that’s not going to happen anytime soon. I mean if she REALLY wants to prove that her initial winning of the title wasn’t a fluke then she would ask for a rematch with no way of interference – inside the steel cage. No escape rule, just submission or pinfall to gain a victory. I dare Pixi to accept THAT challenge. Just like last year, no Black Hand, no Alliance, no Raggy, no CJ, just champion vs challenger in a fight to the absolute finish. The smiley war dancer against the focused professional in a no interference, no escape scenario.”
Grace: “That’s a very specific challenge. I’m actually intrigued now to see what Pixi will say about it.”
Rain: “Good. And while you’re waiting for her to dance around the issue and avoid answering the challenge, I’m going to be preparing with the rest of the Black Hand to take out the volatile mixture of THC and Wicked. Hell, we may not even have to do anything as those two teams will probably take each other out before we even get to the ring.”
Grace: “So in conclusion, what’s next for Rain Blackheart?”
Rain: “More victories. Perhaps a run for the High Roller title. Or maybe I’ll just wait with bated breath for Pixi’s duck and dodge. I have a myriad of possibilities before me, but it’s not in my hands at this point. So we will just have to see, but whatever the challenge I’ll be ready because the Black Hand will once again do what we want, to who we want, when we want and no one is gonna change that."
