Announcer: "Welcome to the annual World Cup! First match is the Equestrians vs the Gryphons! Both of these species are heavily talented and brutal, so we will see a great match tonight!  The two star players to look out for is Rainbow Dash and Gilda! It is said these two were best friends early in their lives but split ways in adulthood. What a match that will be! Two former friends battle it out on the field."
