Eternal Phoenix

*We fade in on a familiar scene. It's Dragoneer, backstage, still frickin' grinning. He's wearing that same shirt again. The one with the flaming phoenix on it. Yeah, that one. Got jeans and sneakers on, too. Just like last week. But this time, D's doesn't seem to know the camera's there. He's got an IPod on and he's flipping around like a loon, randomly kicking at things. Oh, dear. But wait, here comes Graham Hansen. Interview time, oh goodie. Perhaps he can salvage this situation.*
Hansen: Excuse me, Dragoneer?
*Our resident Highflying Phenomenon turns around and sees Hansen.*
Dragoneer: Oh, hey GH. How's things?
You do know you have a match tonight, right?
Yeah, I've got a match. What about it, man?
Seeing as you haven't cut one of your usual promos, Mr. Philips decided I should interview you, get your thoughts on your opponent.
*D's grin shifts into a smirk and he snatches the mike over Hansen's admittedly feeble protests.
*Yeah, I know, relax. You shouldn't be so tense, man. It's not good for you.
*Poor Hansen receives a friendly slap to the back, nearly knocking him over. D then assumes his usual promo positioning, and lets it loose.*
WHAT'S UP, GUYS!
*Of course, the crowd loves it.*
Hey, you guys, I've got Adam Hurst tonight. Thinks he's hot stuff. Well he must, with all those nicknames. "The Hot Commodity", The Prince of PPV", and "The Savior of the Sport". Adam, you've got ego problems, man. But there's no worries. Because I'm going to beat you tonight. A good beatdown is always good for deflating the ego, you know? I do.
*He pauses, and Graham think he can talk. But before he can get a word in, D kind of...steamrolls him. Knowing he won't be heard, Hansen shuts up again.*
Nah, Adam. I'm messing with you. Look, man, let's have a great match and tear the house down. But don't you forget...
*And the grin explodes back onto Dragoneer's face, obliterating the smirk.*
You may be one of the best there is, but so am I. After all, they don't call me the Highflying Phenomenon for nothing.
*D assumes his best imitation of an announcer's pose, and you have to know what's coming next.*
Spoiler, man: AND THE WINNER OF THE MATCH, THE HIGHFLYING PHENOMENON, DRAAAAAAAAGOOOOOOOOOOONEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!
*D hands the mike back to Hansen. The literal definition of an interview is befuddled and the highflyer walks away with that dang grin STILL fixed in place, as we fade out.*
