The Man In The Hat sits, as usual, at the center of the dais. To his left are Kristin Stewart, Neve Campbell, Serinda Swan, Leelee Sobieski, Mariska Hargitay, Pink, and Alison Brie. To his right sit Allison Mack, Kesha, Brooklyn Decker, Jewel, Britney Spears, Jamie Lynn Spears, and Avril Lavigne.

Man In The Hat: "All right, as usual, before we get to questions, there are some people I want to thank. Let's start with the BBU for agreein' ta send Ellie Goulding over here. Ellie's a huge star and she showed tonight that she can be a factor in the FCBA if she gets some work. Also, we'd be remiss in not thankin' our other indie fighters, who remain the bread and butter of Asylum. Of course, let's not forget our friends at the Bazz Fight Club. Many of the best Asylum fights have involved Bazz, and we've even WON one or two of 'em..."

(Laughter)

Man In The Hat: "And, last but never least, the FCBA Commission for sanctionin' these bouts and makin' Asylum possible. Now, questions. Cable Boy! Go!"

HBO Reporter: "You've got to be pretty happy right now..."

Man In The Hat: "It ain't often we sweep one of these things, for the simple reason that, it's very hard to do. So, yeah, I'm pretty pleased..."

HBO Reporter: "I'd imagine especially about Kesha's work..."

Man In The Hat: "Big K had a tough assignment tonight, and she showed she was big enough to handle it. As we've said before, she's stepped forward from developmental fighter to contender, and, as you saw tonight, she's not just a contender, she's a very dangerous one. Cable Boy II, let's hear it!"

Showtime Reporter: "This was a big win for Swan tonight..."

Man In The Hat: "Serinda is one of the best lightweights on the planet and was in line for a title shot earlier this year. She stumbled a little, sure, but we know what she is, and we knew this little slump was gonna end with a bang. That bein' said, it WAS a big win. It gets Serinda back on track and there's still plenty of time in 2015 for her to get some things accomplished. BLONDE! Magazine! Go!"

BLONDE! Magazine Reporter: "Let's talk about two of your other bigs, Sobieski and Decker. Leelee had her hands full, but pulled it out, and Brooke looked great..."

Man In The Hat: "Leelee got in there with a girl who has a lot of tools but ain't had a lot of opportunity. She had one tonight, and she did everything she could to make the best of it. But. Leelee's one of the best welters in the world. When she gets in trouble, she knows how to turn things around, and she did that tonight. As for Brookie, I'll say again, she is what she is, one of the best bigs in the FCBA and a top lightweight contender. Tess, dear, go ahead."

Tess: "You had to like what you saw from K-Stew..."

Man In The Hat: "I did. Seems like I always say this about Kristen, but, she gets better almost every time out there, and she did it again tonight. For awhile now, there hasn't been much she couldn't do in the ring, and it's now gettin' to the point where there's pretty much nothin' at all she can't get done. We've got quite a bit of competition at fly these days, but K-Stew's right at the top of our peckin' order, and there are lots of reasons for that. Smackeroo. It's dinner time. Take us there..."

Reporter: "Is Allison Mack going to get a title shot next month?

Man In The Hat(smiling): "Well, that's not up to me, but, you saw tonight how good Allison is...if you needed any additional evidence...and you shouldn't have. 'Knife' is as good as any bantam in the FCBA, and she's definitely deservin' of a shot. That bein' said, bantam's a very, very good division with tons of depth, so, again, it ain't up to me. All right. It's dinner time. Tess! Smackey! Limo!"
