After losing and regaining the championship from a weight lifting bench and bathwater she was looking to get rid of the thing as quickly as possible, but when she'd tried to hand the belt over to a member of staff to throw away she had found herself unable to release her grip on the championship belt. It seemed there was more going on here but maybe the mysterious omnipresent referee could provide answers.
Amy laid flat on the carpeted floor and placed her phone on her chest, instantly the referee from before appeared to her left counting the pinfall. Amy rolled onto her side at the count of two.
>"So you just appear out of thin air whenever someone gets pinned?"The referee scratches his chin, "so it seems".
>"Do you have a name?""My name...", he pauses for a moment apparently deep in thought, "...my name was Malcolm"
>"Was?"Malcolm folds his arms across his chest, "for as long as I can remember my fate has been tethered to the WWA Super Duper Multiversal Championship"
>"Hasn't this belt existed for less than three weeks?""Like I said, as long as I can remember", Malcolm pointedly responded as he straightened his referee shirt. "I was driving to the arena on Halloween, my car went off the road, the next thing I know I'm refereeing matches and counting pinfalls for that damned belt."
>"Where do you go when you're not, uh, here?""It's like being asleep, I wake up when you're being pinned then disappear again, this is the longest I've ever WOAH SHIT I'M FADING AWAY!"
Amy laid back down on the carpet and placed the TV remote on her chest which seemed to stop Malcolm from dematerialising.
>"You okay Multiversal Malcolm?"Malcolm smiled and sat cross legged on the ground, "I'm fine thanks, but, uh, you forgot to get your shoulders up."
>"I hate this stupid belt.""Me too."
