Our reporter and his blonde companion sit in the Man In The Hat's office at Front Street.
Reporter: "So, what do you think of that Boxermania show coming up?"
Man In The Hat: "Well. As you know, I always enjoy the FNL shows. I think they're consistently one of the best non-PPV events in the FCBA."
Tess: "This is the annual show with all the wrestlers on it. Some of these girls are debuting, and you know my feelings on too many girls already being in the FCBA, and some others barely get any work..."
Man In The Hat: "Well. I agree with PART of your point on debuts. Fact is, lots of girls don't get regular work around here. Lots of girls debut and sit a long time before another fight. Some get just a few fights over several years. For whatever reason, they don't catch on. Others, however, do. And, they go the route of somebody like Mendes, who gets management and becomes something special. You never know. So. I like fresh blood. AS far as some of the wrestlers not getting work, in some cases, I get it. I think Stratus, for example, is probably past working here full time. Others, though..."
Reporter: "Like Bonin. I know you like Bonin."
Man In The Hat: "I do. Tons of potential there. Didn't catch fire right away and lost management. And, now, well. Her phone's not exactly blowing up. She's dangerous, and girls know it. Not worth the risk/reward."
Tess: "The Main Event has a top ten welter in it, at least according to Smackey's rankings..."
Man In The Hat: "Tell you what. If we were planning on signing another welter, Charlotte Flair might be at the top of the list. All the physicals you could want. But. Let's keep in mind that Rousey would be a lot higher than 35 if she had a few more fights. She's got championship ability. That ought to be a heck of a fight. Worth the price of admission. And, there are plenty of other interestin' bouts on there. Again, great card, like always with FNL. And. You know what ELSE is always great? Chef's herb crusted filet mignon..."
Tess: "Let's GO!"
