Mendez Interview Subject 1: Alizeh Midori

[Taskmaster12]

Her home was a very diverse place with all kinds of cultures. Making a street fight styled by São Paulo was just a blanket excuse to bring whatever she wanted and have it ready to go for the match. Alizeh’s confidence would be shattered when Robin was done with her. “Cut the cameras. This interview is over.” Robin didn’t move from her spot. She would stare right back at Alizeh while the crew ended the interview and some began to leave fearing they were about to be in the middle of something they didn’t want to be here for. “This will be a helpful lesson for both of us Alizeh. I did need this reminder.” Robin often forgot that she didn’t have the power and influence that she had back home. Anyone who talked like that to her in those streets it would have already been dealt with. In LAW she was a nobody and she forgot that she was supposed to pretend to be a nobody. So beneath notice that no one would suspect her of being anything besides the wrestler who tried to get work backstage. That meant she would have wrestle more of it would start raising questions why she accepted a contract here to avoid working in the ring. Alizeh might be her saving grace by challenging her like this and making a match that Robin needed to win. “When the match ends I don’t want to hear any blaming going to me for what happens next. You let me pick the match so the consequences will be yours to hold.”

The interview was officially over, and it ended in a way very few, if any could have expected with Alizeh outright challenging Robin to a match with the woman accepting. Now everyone was rushing to finish for fear of getting caught in a brawl. But even Alizeh wasn't that reckless... Or well so long as Robin didn't further provoke her physically. For now though the taller woman seemed content to simply throw another line meant to sound intimidating. Not that Alizeh actually found it such. "Say whatever you want Robin. I don't regret anything I do in or out of the ring. Just keep what I do to you in mind next time you decide to press for a reaction from somebody." Alizeh said and, in a final act of rebellion, would move to shove past Robin, very intentionally bumping shoulders with the woman as the green haired girl tried to make her exit.

This was over. Alizeh left and shoulder checked her on her way out to let Robin stand there watching her exit. “Fool.” Robin wouldn’t be intimidated by someone like Alizeh making threats instead walking out as people closed things and cleared out. At least they had made a good enough interview for footage later. Robin had other concerns any pulling her phone out. She had something to arrange. “You’re in charge of something for me. When I send you some things I want them placed to the ring when my next match is made. I want them exactly where I tell you to put them.” Robin spent a few extra minutes detailing what she wanted and where it should be. She planned to handle this one on her own, that didn’t mean she was giving Alizeh a fair shot. It was a little early to use some of her influence and power but with Celeste as her boss she knew she could plausibly get away with it. Besides, what good was having so much power if you had to be secret about using all of it?
