Final Preparations

(Scene opens just outside a grand modern high-class building. It is situated beside the most spectacular view in the form of a sun-filled beach, not to mention the few naked holiday goers. On the other side of this elegant building, one can see a busy city, a city full of life, a city whose skyline is that of modern high rise buildings, a city where the Mean Champion of Justice resides, a city whose name does not matter right now cause I can't think of one. The grand building that the WWCW camera crew are outside of is the Mean Hotel.

The camera crew, headed by Matt Lawson and Tony Richards, WWCW Head of Technical Management and Head Cameraman respectively, made their way into the lobby of the Hotel through a shiny reflective glass double door.)

"Good afternoon sir, and welcome to the Mean Hotel..."

(Once inside, the crew are simply taken aback by the brilliant space they are in. The camera spins around to catch a full glimpse of the lobby. Marble clad walls; grand stairway; well dressed (and well mannered too if I may add) members of staff. To the left is a grand staircase leading to the Mean Restaurant. To the right is the lifts that circulate the entire building. Straight ahead is the reception area, to which the team has approached.)

Receptionist: Good morning sir, how may I help?

ML: Hi there, a very nice place you got here... I am Matt Lawson from WWCW, I have an appointment with your boss regarding doing a new video for him.

Receptionist: Ahh, yes, he has been waiting for you, he is in his private gym training just now, let me make the call...

(The beautiful blond dials some numbers on the phone and after a brief pause, she gets through)

Hello? Mrs Wilburman? Good morning ma'am, I am fine thank you, and yourself? Ahh, good good, er, Mrs Wilburman, there is a camera crew from WWCW here to see Mr Wilburman... ah huh... ah huh... ok... ah huh... ok, I'll send them right up. Bye.

(Turning back to Matt Lawson)

He's going through his training schedule just now, but he says you can wait for him either in one of the function halls, or in his private gym.

ML: We'll go see him in his gym first I think.

Receptionist: Very well...

(The receptionist gives the crew instructions on how to get there and they make their way.

They go past the restaurant and catches a glimpse of the elegantly beautiful interior of the restaurant. Holiday goers are there having some breakfast and as we see people come and go the restaurant, the crew moved on. They go past the Mean Pub, the very one where Wilburman interrupted Shawn Hart's brutal beating on Jerry Smithfield from. The pub might not be as classy and elegant as the restaurant, but it sure has taste. Dark oak seems to be the architectural theme on this one. Pictures can be seen on the walls, pictures of Wilburman's wedding with his wife, some pictures with celebrities taken at the pub, celebrities like Nic Cage, Mel, Sean, Julia Roberts, Michelle, the usual hosts of Hollywood celebrities, as well as some sporting stars too, Steve Redgrave (HE'S DA MAN!), Lennox, Michael Jordon amongst others. Before Matt Lawson could focus in on a particular picture which seems to be Wilburman and Vinnie Mac shaking hands, the crew moves on.

The crew arrive inside a gym, a very well equipped gym too. It's spread over a couple of levels with an open well in the middle and we can see people doing running on the machine, some doing a bit of weights, some doing presses, but simply put, everyone is working out. Suddenly, a stunningly good-looking redhead approaches the crew. Tony Richards is drooling over the equipment, literally.)

"Hi there, I am Carrie, I am the one you know as Mrs Wilburman, Will is waiting for you in the private gym, you know, intensive training, he needs his focus. So I am going to have to ask you all to be very quiet when you enter."

ML: Sure thing ma'am...

(They all make their way towards a door marked "PRIVATE". Once they enter, we can see the Mean Champion of Justice climbing an interior rock wall, you know the ones, cause I don't know the correct terms for them... but anyway... he is wearing naval shorts, and a pair of trainers. The sweat is pouring from him, as evident from the light reflecting from his body. Matt Lawson looks on for a good few minutes and whispers into Carrie's ears. Carrie turns around and nods in approval. Matt then orders Tony and the crew to set up the equipment and very quietly, Tony has the camera and stuff set. Tony, with camera in hand, approaches the Mean One.

The camera focuses in on Wilburman's face, a face of determination as his lips can be read "39, 40, 41, 42...". As soon as Wilburman reaches 50, he climbs another bit of the wall and continues to do another 50 pull-ups. This is repeated until Wilburman reaches the very top of the wall. He then makes his way towards a climbing rope on the far end of the wall, but as he did, his left hand slipped and he tumbles down but manages to catch onto one of the rocks, before he would fall for certain a good 30 feet into solid concrete. Only then did he realise he was being filmed)

W: TONY?!! When the hell did you get here?

TR: When you were at that rock there... (pointing towards a rock on the wall)... gee, you must have been too focused...

W: Oh... probably... so you been here for some time then?

ML: We have Will, but I figured it would be good to film out training session you know?

W: Er...

ML: Trust me, I am the pro here remember?

W: (As he makes his way down to the floor) That's not re-assuring...

ML: So what other training plans do you have for today?

W: Well, I've already gone for my usual run across the city this morning, I just kinda finished my little climbing exercise, I have a sparring session later on in the evening, and I have basically left the afternoon free for you guys...

ML: Thanks for making time for us in your busy schedule Will, most appreciated. Erm, I don't normally do this, but do you want to cut a promo or something? You know, this could be your last chance for it before the big one tomorrow night...

W: (Smiles) Thanks for the offer Matt, but all that needs to be said is said, all the talking as far as I am concerned, are over, I will do my talking at Power Struggle with some these hands TLC style! But thanks anyway. I just want to finalise my training and then rest up some tomorrow before the big one. So basically, I am all yours to shoot for the afternoon, how do you want to shoot me?

ML: (Smiles) Well I got round thinking, if I could just get some of your training on film, we could get you into the studios some day to do some voices and stuff, I can cut and edit some stuff from shows and hey, presto, a new video for the merchandise department!

W: Sounds like a plan...

ML: So what training are you planning now?

(Should he go to the gym? Should he go to the pool and swim for a bit? Or should he go to the pool and swim for a bit with his wife? Ok ok ok, no need to shout, I hear ya... by popular demand, we are heading to the pool...

Scene opens at the outdoor swimming pool of the Mean Hotel. As Wilburman walks up to the pool, some of his hotel guests are there at poolside enjoying the sun, some of the kids with swim fins are playing a bit in the shallow end of the kiddies pool. And we see the lovely Carrie, Mrs Wilburman to all of yous, striding the lengths of the main swimming pool the only way she knows how, by making waves. [What were YOU thinking?] As she continues her swim, Wilburman approaches the pool as Carrie finishes her lap)

W: Hey sugar.

C: Hey handsome.

W: Is this a private party or can anyone play?

C: Well, I am waiting for my husband...

W: (Smiles) Let him wait...

(Wilburman jumps in the pool and does something under the water to Carrie that caused her to make some girlish scream. Just then we see Wilburman swimming off to the other end with Carrie in hot pursuit. Matt Lawson and Tony Richards just stand at poolside, not knowing what to do)

ML: This is training?

TR: I wouldn't mind it myself if I was with her...

ML: Yeah... you have a point...

(As Wilburman continues this "training session", the scene fades out.)
