(The picture opens up in a conference. There are various people standing about. Some have tape recorders and video recorders, while others are just standing, listening. Suddenly cameras light up as Smokin' Joe Seward walks from the side, carrying the UWA Hardcore Title. He steps up to the table, in front of the set of microphones. Waving to the crowded room, Joe adjusts his tie. After a few seconds of acknowledgement, Joe takes a seat before a giant UWA banner, as do the rest in attendance)

(Camera Flashes)

Joe - (Clapping his hands together) Aw right, lets get this baby started now here. I'm a busy man, so....there, you in the black shirt.

(A reporter stands up)

Matt - Yes, Joe, Matt Hansen, UWA.com, I want to know how you feel about Triple X attacking you Sunday on Stranglehold.

Joe - Well, I'll tell ya the truth ol' Matty, I really was not too happy. I was fixin' ta smash Mirror with a "Light N' Smoke." Then from outta no place, come Triple X with a chair. Now, there be sometin' I don't put up with now here. And that's attackin' people durin' their matches. Triple X. ya should've waited! Sooner or later we are gonna fight. ol X didn't need ta start a brawl on Stranglehold now.

Matt - Didn't you attack him with a garbage can?!

Joe - Means of retribution my friend. Besides, Id though Id go with eye for an eye...he hit me, so I hit him, ya know...yeah, you now here, red hat!

Farley - Yeah, Farley Hunter, Hyper Wrestling Monthly, you say Joe, you hate Triple X right?

Joe - Naw...not hate, I'm just not fond of him.

Farley - What are your thoughts on Jeremy Cundiff being a part of X-Rated, the same team as Triple X.

(Joe takes a sip of water and adjust the microphone)

Joe - I'm still friends with ol' Jeremy. I ain't gonna push aside a perfectly good friendship just casue I gots differences with one man. You there, blue shirt!

Howard - Yeah, Howard Norman, Body Slam Press, What do you predict the outcome of you and Triple X to be?

Joe - (Laughs) Me pinnin' him!

Howard - (Laughs) Triple X has given you some harsh criticism. He says you don't....

Joe - I know, I know, I don't belong wearin' the UWA Hardcore Title. Sweet Merciful Lord. I've wrastled Rilo, Minds Eye, Shadow, and God rest his soul, Travis Williams. I've stood toe ta toe with these greats. Some I've even defeated. And then, Triplx X has the nerve ta say I'm not worthy. I don't like ta talk trash, I let my actions talk for themselves, but Triple X, I will light you and I will smoke you! That be a promise, from Smokin' Joe Seward himself. I'll walk out Hardcore Champion.

(With that, Joe stands from the table. After giving another wave, Joe turns and walks toward the door. A series of camera flashes accompany Joe on the way out the door)
