Our reporter and his blonde companion sit in the Man In The Hat's office at Front Street.
Reporter: "So, Wiz, some wild fights earlier, huh?"
Man In The Hat (smiling): "I'm liking this IBB stable more and more. They've got some real physical girls over there and they're already making noise."
Tess: "What on EARTH was Avril doing fighting some girl who's famous for being on a daytime talk show?"
Man In The Hat (laughing): "Last I saw, she was WINNING..."
Tess (shaking her head): "We need RULES about who can get fights in the FCBA..."
Man In The Hat: "We HAVE a rule. If you don't WIN 'em, you stop GETTING 'em. It's a pretty good rule."
Reporter: "Well, I think Tess is referring to the fact that the 'C' in FCBA refers to 'Celebrity'..."
Man In The Hat (smiling): "Oh, I know what she's saying. But, on another subject. I hear Tess has a new friend..."
Tess (smiling and shaking her head): "I was WONDERING when you'd bring that up..."
Man In The Hat: "I'm a big fan, as you know. I'm even willing to forgive the MICHIGAN thing."
Reporter: "I remember you trying to trade for her..."
Man In The Hat: "We didn't do that ONCE. We did it TWICE. And, we did it because we could see, even when most people couldn't, what her previous management HAD in that girl. When she came into the FCBA, this was the bad old, 'Models can't be champions' days. And, people looked at her and said, well, she'll get fights on her looks, and maybe she can work JMD or something. And, they're forgetting that she MADE herself a star in modeling DESPITE being different than the other models of the day. That determination, that was gonna PLAY in the FCBA. Add in the power and the physical gifts, and you had yourself a CHAMPION. And, that's exactly what she's become. Multiple times."
Reporter: "Wish you pulled the trigger on a trade?"
Man In The Hat (shaking his head): "No trigger to pull, really. We didn't get close enough for triggers. We got CLOSE. But, not quite THAT close. But, if you wonder if I regret not bein' able to get the kid, well. Keep in mind I brought in TWO welters who were billed as Upton CLONES, McKinney and Utgaard. So, yeah. We wanted us a Kate Upton. Unfortunately, there's only one. But. I'm glad to see you're on friendly terms with her, Tessarabia. She's good people. And, you know what ELSE is good? Chef's barbecue..."
Tess: "Let's GO!"
