(Scene cuts to the locker room with Immacolata sitting on the bench with her head down trying to catch her breath from her tough match earlier in the night. The door slowly opens and she does not even look up as Furious Steele walks in. Steele stares down at Imma for a good ten seconds is silence before speaking.)
Steele: Careers in this business go by in the blink of an eye. Next time you open your eyes, you will be middle age with fading skills. Those people whose opinions you cherish so much will take about how great you were and how you "almost were champion" so many times. You will blink again and your grey hair will have come in and your skills will have eroded. You will either become a manager to mentor some up and coming star or you will be forced back into the independent circuit wrestling at casinos, banquet halls, and community centers for 50 bucks.
(Steele starts grabbing chairs and whipping them against the wall.)
Steele: HOW LONG are you going to let them shackle you!!?!?! Let go of it all and be what you were designed to be... They are turning you into a pretty girl that is sassy. Is that going to be your legacy? They keep saying you need to earn your shot, but that is lies. You need to TAKE your shot. You had a chance to face me for the world title but you could not get by your uncle. He knows the game and he plays it very well. He will be the good guy or the bad guy, he will do whatever it takes to win, and he won't think twice about it. He TOOK your legacy, because you were too weak and too afraid to do what needed to be done.

Oh, please! Cut the crap!
She stands up to face Furious Steele, despite his chair-whipping ways.
Are you here to liberate everybody's monster or something?! What are you, an evangelist of dark and wicked ways?! You think you have all the answers, but, really what would you have accomplished on your own, huh? What would Furious Steele be without Tommy Bones to give him the stepladder to the top?
She grabs an unmolested chair and flings it away.
You're right: I lost my chance. I lost again. I didn't win. You know what? I'd rather lose than to win only because somebody helped me. If I ever win this belt, it's going to be by my own power! You did pretty well against Semag, but that's because he made a stupid mistake, because winning the title doesn't mean as much to him as it used to. He can afford to take these risks and to get caught like he did. That's the reason you're still champion. And the reason you're champion in the first place is because Bones swarmed the ring with men to distract your opponent. You're supposed to be this monster, but so far all you've dominated are the rookies Bones fed you.

Steele: Furious Steele has been world champion in every federation he has stepped into. The situation with Bones has complicated matters, but if this monster was free to do things his way, the title would have been here a lot faster but Bones does things to make Bones looks good. Me winning the title was not enough, he had to be an important part of it. his EGO demands that. As for the rest, the loser always has an excuse why they didn't win. the idea of "fair" is just another weakness of yours. It weakens you and in those moments when you have to dig really deep it gives you an out.

You're a lot less impressive when talking about what would have been. I can't wait to hear what you have to say when you lose that belt, whether it's next week or next month. Have fun with my uncle.
She grabs her bag and exits the room, unless he has something more to say.
