*Rose Moreno is standing in an OG-Joshi interview room in front of a camera.*
[Rose:] "Ruby."
*Rose looks exhausted after just saying that one word but takes a deep breath and continues.*
[Rose:] "I haven't talked to you directly in five years. And I could have easily gone fifty. But you've gone too far this time and I won't let it continue.
A rose has its thorns to protect itself from those who would destroy it. But sometimes that is not enough. Sometimes a rose needs to protect its fellow flowers in the same garden. You slithered into OG-Joshi, a modern Garden of Eden for women's wrestling, and you have tried to become it's Lord.
I, alone, have the power to cast you out. But I can't the way you want, at least. Because if I was to leave due to you holding the Title hostage, part of this garden would wither as a result. Then other snakes could try the same thing as you and destroy this place flower by flower, piece by piece.
But I have a weapon to make this stop. Whether or not people believe that the biblical Garden of Eden actually existed, most everyone understand the morale of the story. Eve was expelled because she tasted of an apple from the tree of knowledge. A tree reserved exclusively for our Creator's usage and protection. We were allowed to look and admire, but never to touch. Because information, as you know, can be a dangerous thing to those who have power. It can undermine them if they still desire to hold influence over others. And it can break them if they don't yet have absolute power.
You have appointed yourself the arbiter of OG-Joshi's Destiny but have not amassed enough power to have completely taken it over yet. It's still early enough that I can use knowledge as a weapon against you. And it is my duty to do exactly that to protect OG-Joshi and the sanctity of the World Title.
Ruby, *her voice falters again but not as much as the first time*. I know enough about Destiny to make you very uncomfortable. I can and will make others aware of some of the secret weapons you hold. I can share knowledge of the wrestlers you are allied with that you don't want the world to know about. Or shed a 'guiding light' *Rose smirks* on the 'religious' practices your group has that the world may not...ever... be ready to hear.
If you refuse to properly defend the OG-Joshi World Title, you will be wounded by my thorns of knowledge. Your leverage will be compromised and your status reduced to that of a mere mortal. Because I don't care if you are successful here. I don't care if you have a career that eclipses mine, that makes people forget I even exist or cease to care if I do. But I swear by my Father - if you hurt my friends, I will strike back in biblical fashion."
*Rose takes an apple out of her pocket and bites into it, before dropping it on the floor and walking out.*
[Rose:] "Ruby."
