Former commentator Morty is berating his cameraman when he spots someone in the corridor.
Morty: The Immortal Arkken! Your Highness!
He runs towards him and Arkken turns around. The interviewer is breathless when he catches up.
Morty: Can I... can I get an interview?
Arkken: I am in the foulest of moods, so I would normally say no, but since you are perhaps the only individual to show me proper respect in this hellhole, you may have your interview.
Morty: Great!
He looks at the camera.
Morty: Look at me! I am interviewing His Highness The Immortal Arkken! Hi mom!
The former champion raises an eyebrow, but says nothing. Morty turns back to him.
Morty: Can you believe Alexandro wouldn't put you into the Elimination Chamber match?
This rhetorical question gets Arkken going right away.
Arkken: Exactly! Who does he think he is?! Not only am I rich enough to buy this federation, especially now that it is worth pretty much nothing in this new system, but I am also a Tudor! By rights, I could be challenging for the throne of England!
Morty: And you won two medals at the London Olympics!
Arkken: And I didn't even brag about that! A gold medal in freestyle, a silver one in Greco-Roman. And I said not a word. Why? Because the World Heavyweight Championship means so much more to me than those baubles. Now AoL is in the match and I'm not!
Morty: Well... Angel of Light has been impressive...
Arkken: The only good thing he has ever done was kick Alexandro in the head, but he could not even do that properly. He did not give me the chance to play my last card.
Morty: What card?
Arkken: Alexandro likes to go on and on about how he is only doing the Italian job, but the truth is that he likes justice. He showed that trait when he screwed me out of my world title in my match against Semag. I had pinned Semag, but my feet were near the ropes or something, so our GM restarted the match. Justice. Where is the justice in AoL using his cronies to keep me from breaking his pin? Alexandro would have had to give me another chance, but now he is laying in a hospital bed somewhere and I have no way into the Chamber, that I would win for sure!
Morty: And your daughter wouldn't give you her spot.
Arkken: Where is her gratitude? Or, as AoL would say, "gratefulness", the poor man's gratitude. What chance does Imma think she has? She couldn't even hold on to her National Championship. I can guarantee you that my daughter will not win the World Heavyweight Championship next Friday. And it looks like I won't either. In fact...
Morty: You're not on the card...
The former champion glares at Morty for a moment. He speaks the next words very slowly.
Arkken: I am not on the card.
He rubs his forehead with a couple of fingers, momentarily hiding part of his face.
Arkken: I have been carrying this company for over a year, ever since the previous Elimination Chamber. I have been displaying my skills and enthralling the audience in every main event ever since, but now... I am not even on the card. I am losing it. Losing it. Alexandro does not want me to lose it.
He walks away from Morty and the cameraman and enters his locker room.
