Before: “It may have been way back in 2011,” says Ashley Greene, “but don’t think I don’t remember losing that fight with Rachel McAdams. By one lousy point—two if you realize that’s what I needed to win instead of tie. I didn’t even get the tie. It has burned me ever since. Now I hear Rachel could be retiring soon. This is my last chance to do something about that injustice. I am glad she at least had the decency to accept my challenge.”
“I’m sorry, Ashley,” replies Rachel McAdams when her turn at the podium comes. “I had no idea losing to me meant so much to you. I certainly would have agreed to a rematch a lot sooner. Sadly, I don’t think this will turn out any better for you than it did back in 2011, but do your best near and try not let losing get to you.”
“It’s not getting to me. It’s just unfinished business,” Ashley retorts. “This is my last chance to set things right.”
“Whatever you say, Ashley, but it won’t help you beat me,” Rachel said with assurance.
“That’s what you think.” Ashley says with equal assurance.
