Caria was running late. She rushed into the gym. Shannon was usually the late one, but she found him leaning against the ring.

"Look, Shannon, I'm really sorry but--" Caria rattled off, expecting Shannon to be extremely upset with her.

Shannon started laughing. "Caria, after all the times I've been late, you deserve to get away with this one."

Caria rolled her eyes at Shannon's remark. She tossed her bag aside and hopped in the ring.

"What are we doing today, sir?"

"Getting out of the ring," Shannon said.

"Why?!" Caria freaked.

"Ever been to an indy show?" Shannon asked.

"I didn't know they had any around here," Caria sighed. She always wanted to go to one, but she never found a time to, or a show, for that matter.

"We're going to one," Shannon explained.

Caria looked down at what she was wearing: basketball shorts and a really scrubby shirt. "Shannon, I am not going anywhere dressed like this!"

"Caria, you look fine," Shannon remarked, never understanding why girls just couldn't go out in normal clothes. "If you're that worried about it, I'll drive you to your house so you can change."

"Good," Caria sighed with relief.

"You're not one of those girls that takes a million years to get ready to go to the grocery store, are you?"

"I could be if that's what bothers you."

"No, thanks," Shannon laughed. "It starts in an hour, and I'm sure you'll recognize one of the wrestlers."

Shannon drove Caria back to her house where she quickly changed into something more suitable to be seen wearing in public. Once they got to the bar that was hosting the event, Shannon bought them two ringside tickets and they took their seats.

"Holy shit, is that…" Caria drifted off, looking at one of the tables in the corner.

"Yep, that's Austin Aries," Shannon explained. "Usually at indy events, some wrestlers make appearances. He's also in the main event tonight. But…"

"What?"

"He wasn't the one I said you'd recognize. She should be in the first match."

The show started. The opening music blared throughout the packed second floor of the local bar. The ring announcer welcomed the crowd and announced the beginning of the opening match.

"Oh my god, I feel bad for whoever has to wrestle that chick!" Caria yelled over the noise of the crowd so Shannon could hear her.

Indeed, the wrestler that came out was a female. She looked like a demon seed mix of Awesome Kong and Umaga.

"Yeah, she'll be in OVW soon," Shannon explained. "They want her to be the WWE's answer to Awesome Kong. You know they've been copying each other ever since TNA started."

"She's fighting that beast?"

"Yeah, and Cody isn't too happy about it. Actually, while you watch the match, I'll be watching Cody's reaction. He gets so intense when his girlfriend wrestles," Shannon said, pointing over to the table where Austin Aries was sitting with Cody Rhodes.

"Is that her finisher or something? I thought she used a DDT," Caria wondered, seeing Becky perform an inverted corkscrew hurricanrana.

"It has to be her new finisher. Cody looks infuriated," Shannon giggled.

"What is that other girl's name?" Caria asked after she kicked out of Becky's finishing move, much to the dismay of the crowd.

"Evil Edna. It kind of…doesn't do her justice," Shannon sighed, disappointed in the choice of ring name.

Caria stood up when Evil Edna went to the top rope and performed a diving moonsault. "Are you serious? She can actually do that?"

Shannon smiled, seeing how watching a decent women's match was affecting Caria. "Yes, she certainly can. Do you think that you can do that?"

"No. I'll do it better."
