“That’s what I like to hear.”

“How is tonight’s main event looking, Mister McKinney?” Kendra asked Gordon.

“Well…” Gordon began, holding up his iPhone and furrowing one bushy brow as he looked over the NMW Live app. The right side of his mouth twisted up, one meaty thumb hovering over the screen. Fiona and Kendra waited in silence. After about a minute he lowered the phone to his side, his eyes moving to Fiona.

“Raven Veyn holds the advantage currently, but Isabella was dominating for most of the opening.”

“Who seems to be the fan favorite?” Kendra asked with a touch of caution.

“It’s a close one,” Gordon said with a smirk. “Isabella Cadiz was the face of No Mercy Women’s Wrestling, and she had a following before then. Raven Veyn was the undefeated champion back at Crash Syndicate Wrestling, but… between you two and me, Isabella Cadiz is probably the toughest opponent that Raven has ever faced. Well… except for one other…”

Kendra started to ask who the “other” was, but Gordon’s phone pinged with a text. He glanced at it then quickly excused himself.

“Fiona, I’ll call you tomorrow with details about next week,” Gordon said as he stepped through the doorway, not looking back. “Go on back to the hotel and get some rest. You’ve earned it!”

Kendra smiled and crossed her arms, turning to Fiona.

“So, who would you rather face between those two?”
