Jeff: "I'm very proud of this new generation of wrestlers. You've all put in long hours of hard work and dedication and I'm proud to have been a part of your learning experience. I only wish you the best and I hope you each get exactly what you want. I hope to see many of your faces on the pro wrestling circuit. I'll even hand you your first ass kicking. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Black and the Brave Wrestling Academy class of 2015."
The place erupts with applause and whistles from all the supporters of the students watching proudly as their student or child throws their graduation caps into the middle of the wrestling ring.
Seth: "I started this wrestling school so I could watch a new generation of greats go out into the world and succeed and looking out at all those smiling faces I'd say I got exactly what I wanted. Each one of you has a special talent and a special gift that nobody else out there has. I want to meet you in the WWE wrestling ring and shake your hand knowing I am shaking hands with one of the best wrestlers in the world. Good luck to you all."
The graduates all yell out "I'm fired up." The ceremony ends and the place is clearing out and most of the graduates are heading off to party and celebrate their graduation. Mark is about to leave with his friends when Jeff stops him.
Jeff: "Hey Mark. Can we talk for a minute?"
Mark: "Yeah sure Jeff. What's up?"
Jeff: "Not out here."
He takes him into Seth's office and shuts the door.
Jeff: "I didn't want to say anything out there because there's only one spot that has opened up and I think you've earned the right to it. How would you like to work for the WWE?"
Mark: "Work for the WWE doing what? Please say wrestling because I am no body's errand boy."
Jeff: "Good. Feel free to say that to the head of talent and relations at WWE. His name is Mark too by the way."
Mark: "You're serious about me wrestling for the WWE full time."
Jeff "I'm dead serious. They want you to come down to headquarters as soon as possible."
Mark: "I guess this is my big chance to audition."
Jeff: "Yes. Yes it is. I wish you nothing but luck my friend. I'm off to TNA to do our next event. Call me and let me know what's happened one way or the other."
Mark: "Hell yeah. Thank you so much for the audition. You have no idea what this means to me."
He hugs Jeff.
Jeff: "No worries. "
He leaves and Mark runs to share his good news with Seth and finds him talking with CM Punk.
Seth: "Ah, just the man I was looking for. Mark Parkers, I'd like for you to meet my best friend, brother and mentor CM Punk."
Mark: "Hello."
He shakes his hand.
CM Punk: "So, you're the Mark Parker that Seth keeps bragging about."
Mark: "Hell yeah. I'm one of the best wrestlers in the world. Jeff just told me they want me to audition to be a part of the WWE."
CM Punk: "Wow, not bad for only two years and fresh out of the academy. Good for you."
Mark: "Thank you. I just found out right now. He didn't want to say anything in front of the class because it's only one spot and he doesn't want everyone to start getting mad because I'm being offered the spot and they aren't."
CM Punk: "Rule number one of being the best wrestler in the world. Stop giving a damn what anyone thinks of you. It's all about you and your success. If they were there when the chips were down and you were nothing they will be there when your big and carrying the Superstar title. If they get jealous let them. It's all about your hard work and watching it grows into something huge."
Mark: "I'll be sure to remember that."
CM Punk: "I'm going to give you some advice that Paul Heymen gave me when I was an up and comer in the world and nobody wanted to take a chance on me."
Mark: "OK."
CM Punk: "Work hard and keep your head up no matter what. They can't keep you down if you're always looking up. The only way to succeed in this dog eat dog world is to be strong and roll with the punches. If they try to hit you low hit them high. If they try to knock you down hit them low. Keep the world on its toes and your head in the game. Never lose your edge and never lose your power to fight. Nobody can take that away from you."
Mark: "That's good advice."
