ON CAMERA
*The scene opens up as Avery Miles III is arriving to Gainesville, Florida in his rental car. Nothing too flashy, just your run-of-the-mill car that any Hertz or Enterprise rents out to aging couples trying to rekindle their marriage after their kids growing older and leaving for college. Avery finds a spot in the arena lot and parks. We are a couple of days before the next epside of FWP Scion, but this has been Avery's normal routine for years. Arriving early, getting a survey of the land, and being ahead of schedule. He managed to catch what Donnie Harris said in the last few days. It was clear to him that Donnie was a challenger to be reckoned with and someone to offer a major challenge to Avery right away, but that was not something that scared the former champion. He puts the car in park and opens the door, exiting the car. A camera crew approaches Avery to get some words as this is his Florida Debut for the company*
Avery: Looks like we are doing this, yeah?
*AM3 brushes his beard with his right hand as he opens the driver's rear door and grabs his travel bag*
Avery: I am brand new to this company, so I am not here to make proclamations or predictions. And I am not going to say that I know Donnie Harris.
*He pauses, looking into the camera*
Avery: But to think I do not know the type of guy he is? The backhanded comments?
*A smile from AM3*
Avery: Yes. I am a former champion. Hall of Famer. Yadda Yadda. None of that matters here in Florida. You know that. I know that. Does the boss list that on the company's website in an effort to build up his talent? Of course. He is in the business of selling tickets. Having a talented roster does that, Donnie. I am not hanging on to my previous accomplishments like it somehow got me a leg ahead of everyone else here in Florida. I know some of the roster already, and it would have been easy to start on day one with them. Don't think I was not asked. And yes, I took some time off of wrestling, but do you think that I have not kept in shape or wrestled in years? Be real, Donnie. And 33 is past my prime? That is an interesting take. Am I a young lion around these parts? No way. I never claimed to be that youthful. But to say that I am past my prime? Again, be real Donnie. You know that our Prestige Champion is only three years younger than me, yes? Best watch your tongue.
*Avery shakes his head as he starts to head towards the arena, the camera crew keeping up with him*
Avery: When I was able to hang with the kids...
*Avery scoffs*
Avery: Let's allow my "past my prime" skills inside of the ring show you just exactly what I bring to the table. And I appreciate you being honest, telling the world that you will hurt anyone or do anything to get what you want. Flexible morality much?
*Avery shakes his head in dismay*
Avery: Listen. I get it. I am the unknown here. Out of the industry for years. Most people don't know me here. I am starting from the bottom, but see that is the thing... I would not have it any other way. I like earning what is mine. I do not make grandiose predictions about my own future... I take on the next opponent and they come up. My focus is you. Aurora, and for that fact, Damon both know that I have my own history with them...
*He smirks*
Avery: Tag Team Championships... but that is friendly competition with them. Other than that? I am here to make an impression. To make my mark. To let my actions speak for me instead of my words. I've been around the block in this industry, sure. But you know what keeps everything within play? Being grounded. Being humble. And this week, Donnie... you might just get humbled yourself.
