“It’s so good to have you, Mister Trenton.”

“Thank you.” Mark said with a short nod and a smile.

“So,” Brent began, “a tournament to decide the first ever NMW men and women’s champions. Whose idea was it?”

“Our GM, Mister Deguara, and myself both decided on this.” Mark replied. “Firstly, we thought there was no better way to connect with our rapidly growing fanbase than to give them a say - [i]of sorts[/i] - in who their first reigning champions would be.”

“And… secondly?” Brent asked after a notable pause.

“Secondly was that Antonio and I just could not agree on who is the most deserving to be given title shots.” 

Both men laughed as Fiona received a responding text from Kendra saying that she was watching followed by an “awkward” in all caps. 

“So, you say the fans will be the ones deciding… what does that mean?” Brent asked, looking to the camera for emphasis as he finished his question.

Mark followed Brent’s gaze and said in a smooth tone, “Well, as of the very moment that this segment began two polls can be found on the front page of No Mercy Wrestling’s official website. The fans will cast their votes and the top candidates from the men and women’s rosters will have a spot in the tournament. And the opportunity to win the title.”

“Wow!” Brent beamed, eyes still on the camera, “Alright then, everyone better get to voting! When do the polls close?”

“Monday at midnight.”
