The scene at ID08 turns backstage now, where once again Sonya stands by with Toni Phillips for an interview.
Toni: Sonya, tonight it looks as if you're going to be playing manager for the team of Syrus and Samson, but the question now is...what about the Pearl Championship? Did you have plans on defending it tonight?
Of course I have plans to do that! The problem is well...a week ago at Glitter, Sinclaire came out here in a situation just like this and said that she was going to prove herself against me in a non-title match. As most of you who watched that match saw, it didn't go exactly the way that she intended, did it?
Toni: If I'm not mistaken, it took you just over four minutes to pin her, a Glitter record for fastest fall, maybe even an XWA record.
Well, I'm not going to be one to brag about something like that, we all have bad nights. The fact of the matter here though is this...I learned a lot about Sinclaire and her specific "style" in the ring, and to be honest with you...and not sounding like I'm bragging...if she faced me again, I have no doubt she'd probably do better than the last Glitter, but she still wouldn't beat me.
That doesn't mean that I wouldn't face her regardless though, but she hasn't exactly been heard from since Glitter now has she?
Toni: Well, nobody gotten any word from her yet, no.
I know that a loss like that can chip at the old pride and make you doubt yourself, or it can make you re-evaluate what you're doing wrong and come back better than before. Whatever the case my be for Sinclaire, if she wants a shot at the Pearl Title tonight, all she has to do is show. Otherwise this goes out to any other Diamond on roster who doesn't have business tonight. It doesn't matter who you are or how long you've been here, or even if we've faced each other before. I will be the proverbial "fighting champion" and take on all comers. Just like Sinclaire, all that you have to do is show.
And so they wait to see who does exactly that.
