Stephanie Jones
In this pivotal scene at the EFC FC Arena, **Donna Carter**, the head of the women-only MMA promotion, confronts the fallout from a chaotic melee the previous night. While discussing damage control with her Nikki Reed, Donna is approached by Frank Russo, a dominant investor, and his associate John David, a seasoned fight promoter. Frank expresses frustration over the financial strain caused by the controversy and the perceived inability of the fighters to generate substantial revenue. 

John David proposes a bold plan to restore the company's image and profitability: stripping star fighter Alexa Star of her championship belt, organizing a high-profile tournament, and leveraging the viral buzz for lucrative TV and streaming deals. Despite his enthusiasm and promises of securing top-tier talent, Donna remains skeptical, asserting her authority and experience while dismissing John as potentially unreliable.

Tensions escalate as Frank loses patience with Donna's resistance, but John diffuses the situation, asking for a week to prove his worth. Donna ultimately leaves the conversation, asserting her control and setting the tone for a high-stakes power struggle over the company's direction. This scene highlights the clash of business ambitions, personal egos, and Donna's unwavering determination to protect her vision for the promotion.
