THE SHOT PICKS UP INSIDE THE STUDIO WHERE ELLEN IS STANDING IN FRONT OF ANOTHER ONE OF HER SELLOUT AUDIENCES. SHE IS WEARING A SPORTS COAT AND A PAIR OF BLUE JEANS.

Ellen: "Ladies and gentlemen, he is the owner of the largest professional wrestling company in the world.... please welcome Mr. Travis Wakeman"!

WAKEMAN STEPS OUT TO A GOOD RESPONSE. HE IS WEARING A VERY NICE DARK GRAY SUIT AND A BLACK TIE. HIS HEAD HAS BEEN FRESHLY SHAVED. BOTH HE AND ELLEN TAKE A SEAT.

Ellen: "I..... I gotta say, I've really been looking forward to your appearance here".

Travis Wakeman: "Well thank you, thank you for havin' me".

Ellen: "So for those of us out there who aren't familiar with the TWF, tell us about it".

Travis Wakeman: "The TWF has been in existence since November of 1999 and we feature the best wrestlers, the best matches and the best events in the world".

Ellen: "And this is something that you run"?

Travis Wakeman: "I do..... for a number of years it was owned by Vince McMahon but yes, it's in my hands now".

Ellen: "And you've formed this group called The Empire. Sounds menacing".

Travis Wakeman: "Well that's the idea. The Empire is a group that was made to be at the top of the food chain in our business..... everything goes through us, so to speak".

Ellen: "So coming up is your big event, WrestleMania and this will be the twelfth one"?

Travis Wakeman: "Yes, WrestleMania twelve and it will be held in Denver, Colorado where we are going to brave any of the Colorado elements we may have to to hold the event outdoors inside Invesco Field".

Ellen: "So, what makes this year's WrestleMania so big"?

Travis Wakeman: "Well, the TWF originated in Denver so this is like a homecoming of sorts but the fans have my word that this will be the biggest, most spectacular WrestleMania to date".

Ellen: "So, are you like in charge of all the hiring and firing"?

Travis Wakeman: "I am and as far as the hiring goes, we have some surprises coming. There are several contracts I'm working on finalizing and to all the real wrestling fans out there watching, here's a little inside info for ya. The TWF will soon be the place to be for tag team wrestling and we will also soon bring back the old school style managers as several current superstars are interested in having managers guide their careers".

Ellen: "Okay, I'm a little lost on all the wrestling lingo but it sounds great to me. Now, I can't let ya go without this because I understand you're somewhat of a womanizer".

Travis Wakeman: "Uh...... I'm trying hard to be a one woman guy these days....... my wife is a good woman".

Ellen: "Okay, but we can still have a little fun right?

WAKEMAN HAS A PUZZLED LOOK ON HIS FACE.

I understand that we have a fan in the crowd right now that is a self proclaimed TWF fanatic. She's twenty years old and she says her favorite memory is your match with Money Mike at WrestleMania eight. Her father, who got her into wrestling, was stricken with cancer and passed away this past April. She has flown all the way here from Montpeiler, Vermont so Travis, if it's okay with you, I'd like to introduce you to Hailey Stewart".

THE CROWD CHEERS AS A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN STANDS UP IN THE CROWD AND WALKS UP TO THE STAGE, TEARS IN HER EYES. WAKEMAN STANDS FROM HIS CHAIR AND EMBRACES THE GIRL WITH A BIG HUG AND WAKEMAN WHISPERS SOMETHING IN HER EAR.

Ellen: "I just heard you whisper something to her.... would you be able to say that a little louder"?

Travis Wakeman: "I just asked her if she'd have someone to go to WrestleMania with if she had the chance".

Ellen: "Well, Hailey, would ya"?

Hailey: "Yeah.... for sure".

WAKEMAN REACHES INTO HIS JACKET POCKET AND PULLS OUT TWO TICKETS, HANDING THEM TO THE GIRL. SHE IS SHOCKED AND ECSTATIC AT THE SAME TIME AND SHE GIVES HIM A HUG AGAIN AS THE CROWD APPLAUDS.

Ellen: "Wow.... isn't that sweet? I guess she's goin' to WrestleMania. Guys, please give a warm applause to Travis Wakeman..... what a guy, huh?! And make sure you use that remote control to order WrestleMania twelve.... only on Pay-Per-View"!

ELLEN, TRAVIS WAKEMAN AND THE GIRL STAND ON THE STAGE TALKING AS THE SHOT FADES OUT WITH THE CROWD CLAPPING AND THE SHOW's THEME PLAYING.
