Dark Horse is walking and looking at his cell phone. Ava is right next to him stride for stride looking up at him and then at the cell phone, but she can't see the screen. They get to the ring entrance and Dark Horse hits a few buttons. He stops in his tracks and hands her the cell phone and then turns to her and smiles.
Dark Horse: You're not coming out there tonight. I need to do this alone.
Ava: Wha- Wow! Why?
Dark Horse: Because tonight is all me. Tonight I just want to focus on winning this match alone. Sorry babe.
Ava: This is just like...
Dark Horse: Woman, nah - never. You're with me until I retire. And there is no way "Baron" Bob could make me quit. Not tonight not ever.
She looks at him frowning. Then pouts but the look in his eyes doesn't change into an accepting look. She makes one last appeal.
Ava: You know you can't trust them, and those other ones are just waiting for you to screw up. You can't trust anyone but me. So why should I stay backstage?
Dark Horse: Because I asked you to. Don't worry, I'll do just fine.
Ava looks at him and then at the entrance, she twirls angrily in place and then shakes her head exasperated before finally walking away leaving Dark Horse alone with his thoughts and the fans. He closes his eyes and raises his head, and the fans start chanting his name softly. He lowers his head and turns toward the entrance and starts making his way out into the arena.
