Climbing The Ladder

[Highfly]

Alaina listened and took note, smiling the entire time. She liked the contrast between the women but noted that each one was really gunning to be a top woman around here. She also liked that, they had goals set and were doing whatever they could to get there. "Okay so this question is more for you two but it focuses outside the ring. Ashley we will start with you." Alaina said before getting ready to take down what was said. "What do you like to do when you aren't wrestling or training?" Alaina asked simply wondering what sort of answer she would get.

Everything up until now was very in-ring focuses so the sudden change would potentially throw these two off. Still, this was something quite a few fans were curious about so Alaina had to ask.

When Ashley heard what Alaina asked her next the Amazon was proven to be correct in her assumption that the question would throw her off, as Ashley would have a visible look of surprise on her face at being asked such a question. She had assumed that the questions were going to be entirely wrestling-related, but apparently this was something that people were interested in so Ashley would try her best to give a satisfying answer "When I'm not wrestling or training? Well... this might sound a bit nerdy but watching wrestling; like other LAW matches in the same card as one of mine or some older matches. I kinda have a one-track mind when it comes to wrestling, as sad as it sounds I don't really have many other hobbies or interests" she answered, with a chuckle.

JJ shook her head when Ashley answered. It was a smart answer and very text book. It also wasn't far from what JJ did either. "I am much the same. I watch my matches to see where I screwed up and I watch a few favorites in the ring. Even though my girl Sienna is gonna put you in your place when she faces you again I have to admit you were a favorite power wrestler growing up. I like watching really fit, muscular wrestlers who I want to emulate so women like you and Jacqueline Moore are high up on the list. Of course I would love nothing more than to face you in the ring and beat you at your own game but I want to earn a shot like that." JJ said, looking over at Ashley and giving her a wink.

Alaina smiled at the mention of Sienna. She knew JJ and Sienna had taken to training together and both of them did remind Alaina of herself as far as in-ring performance went.... to an extent. Alaina didn't think Sienna was ever going to reach her level and their next match would be a chance to demonstrate that to Sienna as painfully as possible. "Well then, another burning question from fans is this. Is either on of you seeing anyone and what is your ideal date?"

[pikazard]

Ashley had already been taken quite off guard by how different the last question had been from all the wrestling-oriented ones, so when Alaina asked a question about her love life and ideal date it was needless to say that Ashley's composure was quite shaken "W-w-w-ww-w-what!?! W-why is that a question? Is that really something wrestling fans wanna know?" It would quickly become apparent to Alaina and JJ that this line of questioning had left the blonde quite flustered, with her face going bright red as she struggled to form an answer "Uh no... I'm not seeing anyone no..."

If she was to be frank she would admit that she didn't really want to answer this question, in fact the only reason she was even entertaining the idea was because it was Alaina who was asking, a woman that Ashley had a lot of respect for "M-my ideal date... uhhh... the beach is nice, I guess. Yeah, a beach date followed by a fancy dinner... I suppose" Ashley would say, feeling quite embarrassed by this line of questioning. She was here to talk about her career, or so she had thought.

[Highfly]

JJ rolled her eyes at Ashley a bit and chuckled. Sure JJ was taken off guard by this but it wasn't anything too crazy or so she thought. "Honey, if ya want to date an impressive lady like me you better impress me. Sweep me off my feet, make that spark and really make a connection. And no, right now I am not seeing anyone since I am focused on showing LAW why I am the best rising star in the promotion." JJ said with a smile and wink.

Alaina nodded along as both women answered and she saw how embarrassed Ashley was. "All right, finally.... how long do you think it will be before you have a title around your waist?" Alaina asked looking back at Ashley as she looked to cap things off with a wrestling related question to try to help Ashley feel a bit more comfortable in the interview.

[pikazard]

In hindsight Ashley was quite embarrassed by her reaction to hearing the question, especially given that she'd reacted that way in front of Alaina of all people, but she couldn't particularly help it. When it came to matters of romance or relationships she was quite clueless so it was an easy source of embarrassment for her, but she answered to the best of her ability so hopefully the readers were satisfied.

The next question would be something a little more in Ashley's wheelhouse as Alaina asked the two of them how long they suspected it would be before they gained a title belt "Hmm... that's probably quite a while off for me, maybe 2 or 3 years. I need to do more to establish myself in the middleweight division first" as she spoke her voice was calm and composed, her voice was quite composed. It was clear she had put some thought into the answer; she hadn't exactly been singing her praises but she wasn't being self-deprecating either. It was just what Ashley thought was a realistic answer.

Ashley would then wait to hear JJ's answer, and given her attitude so far in the interview she was expecting another confident answer from her fellow wrestler.

[Highfly]

JJ smiled as it was her turn to answer. "Honey, I am gonna have gold around my waist soon, I can feel it! Middleweight title or Openweight title suit me just fine. Perhaps Sienna and I take those tag titles? i have a lot of options open to me and I know one way or another I am gonna be a champion around here." JJ said with a grin and wink.

Alaina smiled and compiled everything before slowly rising. "Thank you both for the interview, I am sure this will make for a great article! This was quite fun for me and I hope you both enjoyed it as much as I did!" Alaina said as she looked around to the two young wrestlers. "So do you ladies have any questions for me at all before I heard out?" The interviewing amazon asked as she looked between the two women.

[pikazard]

To absolutely no one's surprise JJ would give Alaina quite a confident answer; declaring that one way or another she would be getting a belt soon whether it was the Middleweight, Openweight or even Tag title. It was quite an out-there claim, but JJ managed to make it sound like it was just a matter of fact. It was an answer that cemented just how different Ashley and JJ were in almost every way, the only thing they have in common is how talented they are.

Satisfied with the answers she had gotten from the two of them Alaina would thank Ashley and JJ before preparing to leave "Oh! Uh no, no questions Ms Alaina. Thank you for having us!" Ashley would declare before holding her hand out for Alaina to shake.

[Highfly]

Alaina stood up and smiled to the two women. "Thanks for answering my questions! It was great to talk to the two of you and I hope to see you in the ring again Ashley." Alaina said with a nod before turning to JJ. "I also hope to see you in the ring soon as well. Sienna, not so much as slamming sense into her seems to achieve nothing even if she can't pick up a win against me." Alaina said with small grin. She had enough to give the higher ups at LAW and she was more than happy to get to talk to two young wrestlers whom she hoped to see in the ring again the sooner the better.

[pikazard]

Ashley couldn't help but giddily smile when Alaina said she hoped to fight Ashley again some time "Y-yes! I feel the same. S-see you later Alaina!" Ashley would say as she waved Alaina off. This wasn't her first meeting with Alaina but it still felt unreal having such a casual conversation with someone she'd been a fan of from childhood, so she had trouble keeping her composure around her. When Alaina left Ashley would prepare to leave herself, but not before turning to JJ and holding out a hand to offer a handshake "I'm sure it's only a matter of time until we have a match. When that happens; may the best woman win" she would say, wanting to show respect to her fellow competitor.
