George: Greetings, everyone. I’m George Moosefari...

Tony: ...And I’m Tony Duffy!

George: For those just tuning in, me and my co-host are currently broadcasting from the Finko Islands. This tropical eden was loaned out to us by the proprietors of this land for the Super Ultra Gathering Deluxe Tournament. After an unexpected break, we’re back to interview the next fighters for the second-to-last match of this tournament. Gentleman, care to introduce yourselves?

Elvis: Yeah, it’s me. It’s your favourite gorilla, Elvis Champagne.

Dennis: And I’m here too! I’m Dennis, in case that wasn’t obvious!

Tony: Whoa! Your tail is wagging around like CRAZY!

Dennis: Sorry, I’m just really excited! I’m actually in the semi-finals of something! This is amazing!

George: You have to love that enthusiasm, folks. Alright, let’s move onto the first question of the interview. Why do you think you should win this belt? Why do either of you deserve to claim this coveted prize over all the other fighters?

Elvis: Aside from being a cool fashion statement? I dunno, my top priority is the prize money since I’m donating the cash to charity. The belt is just a really nice, flashy bonus.

Tony: Interesting. How about you, big guy? Why should you win this tournament?

Dennis: Well, um...I just don’t think I get to win a lot of the time so it’d be nice to be able to hold onto something “real” like that and be able to tell myself that I was a winner. Will I end up losing that thing immediately in some kind of title match or something? I mean, probably. But at least I will have won something big like that at least once in my life. Honestly, the fact I made it to the semi-finals at all is a really big deal to me.

George: Huh. A nice answer from a nice individual. Thanks for the insight, Mister Leblanc.

Dennis: Aww, thanks! I just wanted to be honest, you know?

Tony: Let’s move onto the next question. What do you do to calm down and relax after a long, busy day?

Dennis: Well I like gardening, video games, going on walks, cooking and taking naps so any of those things will be good for me.

Tony: Interesting choice. How about you, Elvis?

Elvis: I only need three things to relax. A nice chair next to the fireplace, a glass of whisky on the rocks and a good novel to read.

George: Huh. I didn’t peg you for the bookish type. Tell me, what was the last book you read?

Elvis: That would probably be The Burrows by Narwhali Serpent.

George: Interesting. What are your thoughts on the novels themes of loss and the prolonged nature of-

Tony: Ok, buddy. Gonna have to cut you off here. We’re here to talk about sweaty dudes beating up each other for entertainment. Let’s save the book club meeting until after we’re done recording, alright?

George: Fair enough. Let’s wrap up this interview with our final question. One of you is going to face off against Mister Wilson in the ring. Do either of you wish to say something to the powerful bull before this second-to-last bout?

Elvis: Listen, buddy. I’m just an ape from a formerly struggling family so I know it’s easy to look down on me. That would be your first mistake! Bigger brutes than you have tried to beat me and they all failed to break me! I plan on winning this thing and you better believe I’m gonna ride you around the ring like the oversized calf that you are! That’s a promise!

Tony: Woof! That’s a spicy bit of trash-talk! Care to say something to Brick?

Dennis: Uh...You better moo-ve those expectations if you think you’ll beat me.

Elvis: ...

George: ...

Tony: ...

Dennis: ...What?

Tony: That was the lamest bit of trash-talk I’ve ever heard in my time.

Dennis: You put me on the spot, OK?!?

George: Would you care to try again?

Dennis: ummm...I know you bulls like to eat grass, but how about you eat these fists? Eh? Eh??

Tony: Wow. That was...marginally better, I guess...

Dennis: Oh, whatever! At least I tried!

George : And on that lacklustre note, this wraps up our interview. Tune in next time for the penultimate matchup between the self proclaimed King and The Sizzling Comet. Only one of these fighters will be given the chance to claim their prize so make sure to watch the next exciting match in the Super Ultra Gathering Deluxe Tournament. I’m George Moosefari...

Tony: ...And I’m Tony Duffy! Thanks for listening and I hope that you’re all excited to see a slobberknocker by sunset!
