“So, Let’s just call this what it is…a disaster waiting to happen.”
Nat is dressed in shorts, top sneakers and has the backdrop of an outdoor basketball court at her back as she is sitting down with a basketball at her side drinking from a big bottle and she sighs.
“I could be surprised, but the four of us don’t see eye to eye and given the stakes there’s an argument to try and deny a clean sweep so you can juggle the entry order, and nothing against any of your opponents they’re all ass kickers but the whole thing is set up to watch us tear at each other right?”
A shake of her head and a rub at her knee shifting herself to stay under the shade
“Call this match the crab bucket, right? Nancy, Phillip, Candy and Billie have a real chance to upset the apple cart here, Set an order of things..I’m kinda all about that energy, I love it but it’s not ideal to be in it The Invictus team I can count at least two of us to maybe be on board with each other, I think maybe one thing we all agree on..”
She took a moment to chuckle and glance into the camera.
“Nobody wants Ren as the last entry. Nobody wants to give the champ that kinda advantage and that is where the crab bucket starts, ‘cause then it becomes a question of which of us wants it most? So what do we gamble on the isolation play and make sure Ren enters last? Tag matches don’t run that smoothly, trust me. The flow of things means people get a sense of when to move in, I'm gonna cover my teammates first, ok?”
Nat used her free hand to play with that basketball some and grimaces a little as she pulls up the first name that comes to mind.
“TJ, I don’t really know you that well, you got fire and desire that can only mean I think you’ll want that last entry, I mean hell we -all- do, and you certainly got the ego we haven;t really worked with or against each other so if anyone worries me the most it’s you, TJ.”
She shook her head and sighed.
“Like, We all want a shot at that gold, we all want to get that space, and if I have my mental flags pegged I think you like to try and skirt the radar some, play spoiler put the spotlight on yourself and yourself alone with no sense of team work.”
She rolls her eyes and looks to the shade.
“Survive together or die alone TJ, don;t get so focused on the end goal you lose sight of the games being played here.”
She pauses and muses at that with a small grin and then rolls the ball again as she switches mental tack.
“Tytus Rost, my man.”

“Tytus Rost, my man.”
Nat’s smile eases back onto her face as she chuckles.
“Good to be in the ring with you again big man, if I want anyone other than me in that first spot …it’s you not that I think you need it , Most everyone else will probably disagree and try to keep you from entering until last because you’re the Juggernaut but I dunno I had fun facing you, It was a challenge one I’m happy to run back with you at any given opportunity it just so happens this week we‘re working together.”
She sighs a bit.
“Sort of, I have no illusions as to what you want I think you might well be confident enough to enter first and see how far you can go…. Really test yourself, and I’m not gonna lie ..The thrill-seeker in me is intrigued by that idea too…Enter first and do the run…”
Nat’s look changes as she seems to consider that thought, head tilting as her eyes change focus from the camera to just past it and then she looks into the camera.
“Catch 22, Hold onto your professional pride, play the risk or go for the obvious and most strategic option all whilst paying lip service to the people standing on the other side of the ring. It's real easy to slip up, I’ll be damned if Stand back and stand by.”
She chuckles a bit and rubs under her nose.
“Which is of course, moving onto Ren, Serenity The Invictus champion who's done a lot of complaining, rubbing out faces in it about how she’s held the belt and still holds it, and you know at we face Serenity I didn’t give you enough credit..I was absolutely left to go to the back of the line…and you know what? Regardless of how it ended Regardless of the feet on the ropes The powers that be are on your side..”
She tapped her own chest once, twice and then glanced up to the shade above her before she smirks.
“That was on me, Serenity. It won't happen again, I’m a quick study, and as foul as I think your ass is you did still earn that belt and I’m damn determined to square that line of business away in some form or another by the time is all said and done. We don’t like each other, that much is easy to see. Hell, Serenity barely respects anyone and gets none back . Perfect karma but she uses it as an excuse to be this toxic ass.”
She huffs a breath and chuckles.
“Like I opened up on this, Rennies, the one thing I think we’re all lock in on is making sure you get the last fall if possible but I'm a realist this is a chaotic match and I might be the one person on my team not looking down my nose at everyone else, not taking any of you all for granted not assured of victory by any means, and I think that’s the problem with the rest of my team…So occupied with each other with imposing their will and making the point…they forget there’s a whole other team in this.”
She smiles sadly, her tone sounding just a bit disappointed.
“Nobody is prepared for the possibility of an upset in this of getting rolled up or put down, embarrassed in the bright lights so I have a message for my opponents too, a dare even.”
She nods a bit and looks right into the camera.
“Nobody seems to think you have much of a chance to prove one of them wrong. Prove everyone wrong, do your worst, flight claw, make the most of our inevitable infighting Pin -one- of us.. Man please do that. I wanna see the look of shock as the apple cart is upset because they’re so busy squabbling over who wins …one of them loses.”
She nods and she huffs a breath gaining a bit more resolve in her words.
“I’m still coming for any of the guys like my career depends on it, because it does, No matter which place I end up, I admit I’m too proud to not put a fight, I’m not smart enough to make a strategy play, I fly by the seat of my pants, because plans have habit of going bad.”
She leaned forwards and picks up that bottle again even as she slowly stands again with the ball glancing into the court then back to the camera, giving a sly chuckle.
“This week is a chance to disrupt everything and everyone. I promise everyone, I’m going out there with the same idea as everybody, -unlike- everyone else I’m sensible enough to stay flexible if it goes wrong, I made my bets, I’ll try my best as the IWF faithful cheer our names.”
She moves to the gate and bounces the ball into the court and places the bottles next to her bags just on the other side of the gate as she grins.
“No matter what Imma turn it up, Lighting fires and kicking tires, once that bell goes and my feet kick canvas , you all know what the game is, and I’m not gonna compromise that for nothing, not even the chance to make the best showing on earth.”
She gives the camera the finger guns and nods.
“I’ll see you guys soon, You know the rest.. Pearlescent Peregrine , Techno Tsuchigomo…try and keep up I’m at full throttle, Good luck.”
She gives a wink as she turns past the gate and lifts a hand as that basketball gets bounced into her hand in fame and we start to fade out.
“Round 6 …yeah?”
