The Parking Lot, GHW Arena, Boston. 8:35 PM, Tuesday 1 June.
It is a pleasant, warm evening in Boston. Sitting on a bench at one side of the parking lot, thouroughly enjoying his evening, is "Mr. Wreckingball" himself, Jason Philips. He is wearing a pair of blue urban camouflage trousers, a "Boston Celtics" basketball jersey and a pair of heavy boots- and he is also wearing a confident, relaxed expression. He nods amiably to a couple of people who walk past but before long he is interrupted by Charlie Coors, who wanders over towards him with a microphone in hand...
CC: Oh, there you are! Is it alright if I ask you a few questions about Nexus and tonight?
Wreckingball: Don’t bother asking in future. Of course it’s alright, so sit down and get started.
Charlie sits on the bench and begins to speak…
CC: Sorry to start on a sore spot, but can you tell me truthfully how you felt last week?
Wreckingball: I felt like the match was an enormous and unmitigated disaster. Gangsta and I had a major, major problem to deal with. Believe me, we both wanted to win those belts… but also, we knew only too well that if we won the match by pinning Wolverina, she might end up being beaten or murdered by Jaggeroth. On top of that, neither of us wanted to lay a hand on Wolverina, and we both wanted to turn Jaggeroth into pate. Or at a push, mincemeat.
CC: I assume that’s just a figure of speech…
Wreckingball: Not really, no. Anyway, as soon as the match ended, the two of us realised what we had done. We both fell for his fucking mind games, man.
CC: Mind games?
Wreckingball: Yeah. If you want to win a match, then you should head down to the ring in a placid, calm and relaxed mood. You need the placid mood so you can concentrate on kicking your opponent's arse. What that freak tried was to keep the two of us as angry as possible and stop us concentrating on the match. The worst of it is, it paid off for him.
CC: Moving swiftly on… how do you feel about tonight’s match against Greenspark and Johnny Enmity?
Wreckingball: I don’t know about Greenspark, but I pity Johnny Enmity. I thoroughly kicked his ass two weeks ago, and I’m going to kick his ass again tonight. Let’s just say Demolition Express is taking the one-way express to demolition, heh heh.
CC: It’s common knowledge around here that you have planned to make a tagteam with Eddie Hall, but you’ve somehow ended up as Young Gangsta’s partner. What happened?
Wreckingball: I’m not sure, it was just there on the Nexus card. We co-operated much better than either of us expected, though.
CC: From a spectator’s point of view it was interesting to watch the two of you fight as a team, as you have a very different in-ring style to Gangsta. Personally, did you find this difference a problem inside the ring?
Wreckingball: If anything, it was more of a blessing than a problem. It allowed the two of us to fight more inventively and much less predictably.
CC: One last thing, who do you want to fight next week?
Wreckingball: Young Gangsta. I think that if I fight him, that’ll help me understand the way he fights and vice versa. We’ll be a much stronger tagteam as a result of it.
CC: Well, thanks again for your time… I have to go and interview Demolition Express now…
Wreckingball: …Good luck.
CC: Somehow, I think I’ll need it.
With that, Charlie stands up and walks back inside…

Comments are always welcome. (I did edit this interview as I thought of more stuff to write.)
