We cut to a shot of Charlie Nickles, standing behind a podium placed right outside of Kroger Field. A banner placed in front of the podium reads 'Annual Dolly Waters Retirement Ceremony'. The 'Big Gold' belt rests proudly upon the podium as Charlie's entire corporate crew stands around him. Elon Musk, Nadine, and Peter Principal....well, Peter's not standing, but he's still there!

A slew of cameras flash as a bevy of reporters rush the podium, anxious to hear the news. Charlie adjusts his tie with a smirk before placing his hands upon the podium.

"Thank you all for being here on this very special occasion. As you already know, today will be Dolly Waters last day in the XWF. After her impending defeat tonight, she will no longer be under contract with the world's premiere wrestling Corporation.

A true shame, a deep loss we will all feel.

As you may know, Dolly Waters and I have always been good friends. I considered her a daughter at one point, and I know she considered me a dear mentor. So it is with a heavy heart that I announce the kick-off of the Dolly Waters Retirement Ceremony."

Charlie looks around the crowd with a smirk, but even he can't hide the pain in his eyes.

"This podium will be left up here all day, just outside of Kroger Field. I welcome any and all members of the XWF roster to come up to this podium, and say a few words about their experiences with Dolly Waters."

Charlie reaches into the pocket of his blazer and pulls a few notecards out.

"I'll go ahead and get today's festivities started myself, because who better to kick things off than the man who made Dolly's career?

Now, I want to make it clear that my intent here isn't to change anyone's minds about tonight's match, or to force Dolly to come out here and explain herself. I just believe that a moment like this, the loss of such an important member of the XWF roster: deserves a little ceremony!"

The Nickleman looks out towards the cameras with a smile faker than a three dollar bill.

"First and foremost, I wanted to formally announce that Dolly Waters needs to check her mailbox. The law offices of The Corporation have just sent her a formal cease and desist letter, and we will swiftly be filing suit against her for slander and defamation in the federal courts of Kentucky.

Also, and more importantly: I'm going to be suing that bitch for copywrite infringement!

She has absolutely no right to spice up her boring fairytales with my name, image, and likeness! I mean, seriously? 'Baron Nicklesworth'?

THAT'S GONNA COST YA, DOLLY!

The hogwash you put on people's TVs is NPR feel-good nonsense. Your vignettes are the potato salad of pro wrestling, but that doesn't give you the right to rip my likeness off to enhance it!

Seriously, Dolly: do I get an award for being the most interesting character in both of our vignettes?"

Charlie flips the first notecard over his shoulder, and moves on to the next one!

"But moving on...

Dolly, you've been one of the pillar stones of the XWF for years. You have helped build this company into the behemoth that it is today, and I don't want you to feel like you were underappreciated before we boot you out the door.

So, I wanted to gift you a little going away present...

I wanted to gift you a motherfuckin' FACT-CHECKER, you lyin' bitch!"

The Nickleman throws the notecard over his shoulder as the gaggle of reporters gasp in shock at his harsh language. But Charlie pays their moral outrage no mind, he just moves on to his next notecard!

"First and foremost: I'm not 5-4 this year. I don't know where you get your stats from, but I'm pretty sure you pulled them out of your unwashed Kentucky ass! But then again, hillbillies like Dolly have never been too good with numbers."

Charlie throws the notecard over his shoulder as the reporters take careful notes. The Nickleman quickly moves on to his next card. 

"You know folks, sometimes I start to wonder if I'm showing signs of CTE...but then Dolly Waters goes and opens her mouth, and I realize that whatever condition I have is nowhere near as bad as that!

Dolly said that her and I have never squared off one-on-one before...well, that's another damn lie:

But even more interesting than Dolly's LIE, is the TRUTH she hides!

Dolly and I HAVE squared off before, in a 'I QUIT!' match live on XWF: Warfare! It was just a few weeks before we challenged Angelica Vaughn and Johnny Jr for the tag-team championships.

Dolly and I did then, exactly what we should have done now...

We both quit at the same time.

Because true friends would never go to War against each other."

The Nickleman glared out into the crowd, clearly seething at Dolly's apparent betrayal. Charlie flipped the notecard over his shoulder and moved onto the next one, just as he had done so many times by this point!

"But Dolly's laundry list of lies and misrepresentations doesn't stop there...

In fact, Dolly's most REPULSIVE LIE, came at my direct expense.

She stated that I pay little regard to my dental health...a lie so preposterous, that it tells me Dolly Waters doesn't even watch XWF programming!

As everyone knows, I proudly showed off my brand-new 'Hollywood Smile' in the cold-open of Anarchy's latest episode!

At the very top of the episode, I made sure that the cameras caught me "revealing a brand-new set of pearly whites"! Go watch it for yourself if you doubt me, because we both know Dolly Waters doesn't watch any show she's not on!"

Charlie flashed off his new dental implants one more time, clearly very proud of them.

"But Dol-LIE Waters has always had a tenuous relationship with the truth. I mean, just take a gander at this whole 'retirement' gimmick she's making us all go along with!

Tonight's her retirement match....but she's already booked to go wrestle for York's Super-Shitty-Super-Show!

Dolly's not retiring, folks..."

The reporters all gasp in shock at the revelation.

"But she won't be wrestling here anymore after tonight.

Not after I've said my final peace.

Now, if any other members of the XWF roster want to say a word or two about that lying, backstabbing, treacherous leech of a woman: the floor is all yours."

The Nickleman snarls at the flashing cameras before throwing his final notecards onto the ground in frustration with Dolly's deceptions. Charlie grabs 'Big Gold' off the podium and storms off, headed back towards his private locker room in Kroger Field, leaving the 'Dolly Waters Retirement Ceremony" podium open to any and all members of the XWF roster!

Solomon Kline approaches the podium, the X-Treme title draped over his shoulder. He is clad in his nicest black suit. 

"At this time I'd like to remember all the great moments I never had with Dolly, or Charlie for that matter...in her short career. As the current X-Treme champion, I feel compelled to speak. I say current knowing I have a very game opponent tonight in Tatiana Jolee and unlike her and our current, and hopefully former Universal champion after tonight, I don't believe in putting the cart before the horse. You want to change the rules of the X-treme title? Why don't you wait until after you earn it? You want to celebrate the retirement of someone you claim to care about before you even fight? So be it. It's your funeral. I'd like to close by saying I don't like either of you, Dolly and Charlie, but I dislike Charlie a tiny bit more, so here's to four more years! At least...of Dolly Waters in the XWF. And Charlie? Go fuck yourself. Have a nice day!"

Solomon taps both hands on the podium twice, before walking away from it.
