The scene opens at a large metal table filled with papers and cups of half drank coffee. There are wires snaking across connecting to high quality microphones arranged at different points. In front of those microphones were two men and a woman. Each of them dressed comfortably and causally with a set of headphones over their ears an each with an energetic yet pleasant voice that podcast hosts are known for.
The man on the right was a large white man, bald but the shaved kind of bald that made him look much from bad-ass than his receding hairline ever could, and wearing a THY WWE T-shirt. The woman on his left had long red hair that she died to make it bright as a neon sign. Her skin was tan as she had just gotten back from vacation. Her Red, White, and Blue medium T-Shirt was tied in a knot in the back and cut up in the front to allow for the ratings of the views watching live streaming online to rise and fall based on how much she bounced while talking. It read “Rock Star USA” on it from when she had seen a live taping of an indie show. The second man was a younger dude with glasses and a septum pricing. He wore a green and blue button up plaid shirt and his neck tattoo read “Forever”. His hair was shaved one said and fell to his chin on the other. All three seemed to be going over notes before another person walked in with a clipboard and a jittery disposition.
Clipboard Person: Alright everyone we are on in 2.
Bald: Sweet
Red: Alright thanks Shane
the guy with the piercing didn’t respond as he had just took a sip of coffee but he looked at the young man with the clip board and nodded. The room went back to paper rustling as the guy with the piercing put his coffee mug down that read “I tap without Coffee” and it had a picture of Sasha Banks on it locking the “BankStatment” on some poor woman.
Bald: So you guys ready?
Piercing: Yeah I think so
Red: Yeah I’m good. It was a big week.
Bald: mhmm there’s a bit to talk about.
A little blinking light came on in front of them, which let them all know the show was about to start. Shane was behind a large clear window holding up his hand.

Bald: Hello everybody out there, over here, and everywhere! Thank you so much for tuning in to Beyond The Ropes your number one online streaming podcast for all your professional wrestling coverage, updates, and inside scoops. My name is Bobby Ham and with me as always are my co-hosts the beautiful and talented Lela Day
Lela: Hey!
Bobby: And my not nearly as beautiful, not nearly as talented Warren “Rox” Taylor
Rox: Hey now Bobby! I would like to think that me and Lela are about tied for beauty. I mean look at me I am a stud.
Lela: You’d like to think that. But I mean come on when’s the last time YOU posed for a magazine?
Bobby: and “beer gut weekly” does not count
Rox: …alright point taken.
Bobby: Well then let’s get to our first story ladies and gentlemen and boy is it a good one. All eyes have been on the THY WWE as of late, which is nothing new, but what is new is that the title scene over there has taken a shot of crazy to the arm!
ROX: That is an understatement Bobby! They-
Lela: Maybe one of the biggest understatements in a while
Bobby: ok ok let’s talk about it.
ROX: Well I was talking about and I haven’t stopped talking about it since I watched the last RAW. Beno, the best pure talent of THY WWE-
Bobby: Whoa!
ROX: yeah I said it. Beno is the NEW intercontinental champion!
Lela: I don’t know about “Best”
ROX: What more proof do you need? Triple crown champions don’t come around every day Lela.
Bobby: He’s got a point there.
Lela: Hey Beno’s great and it was a big win. I am just saying that maybe that might not be so true anymore..about being the best.
Lela smiled to herself as she sat up in her chair adjusting her T-shirt for the camera. Bobby and Rox both rolled their eyes though neither of them looked upset.
Bobby: Oh really Lela and I WONDER who you think might be better?
Lela: I am just saying-
ROX: Wait hold up are we just done talking about a Triple Crown champion? Are we just done talking about a brand new champion?
Bobby: No we are going to get back to Beno and the rest of the wrestling world in a minute but I know that our email box has been overflowing, calls have been flooding in about a huge rumor of a big signing that has been confirmed for THY WWE.
Lela: Woooo!
Rox shook his head and took a sip of his coffee. He then pointed his cup towards Lela.
ROX: Someone’s marking out
Lela: I’m sorry can I not be excited? Am I not allowed to be excited?
Bobby: I think you are not the only who is excited Lela. For those of you who are not streaming us online-
Lela: And you should be because I look good today
Bobby: for those of you who aren’t streaming us online I can tell you that my co-host Lela Red is sporting a shirt from one of the biggest independent stars in recent memory who has officially coming to the Thy WWE roster, Adian Future!
Lela: Rock Star USA BABY! Woooo!
ROX: I don’t know Bobby do you think Lela’s excited?
Bobby: not sure. It doesn’t seem like it.
Lela: oh come on guys don’t act like you haven’t been hoping that this would happen.
Bobby: I will admit that I did not think I would see the day that Mr. Infintiy himself would step foot in such a major US promotion.
ROX: That’s because Adian Future like’s feeling like a big fish in a small pond.
Both Lela and Bobby Ham look at their co-host with a face of shock.
Lela: Are you kidding me?!
Bobby: Rox tell what did you slip in the coffee man.
ROX: Hey i just calls em like i sees em
Lela: So New Japan Pro Wrestling is a small pond now is what you are saying? You are just saying that ROH is a small pond?
ROX: I am not saying those places don’t have talent all I am say-
Bobby: Tokyo Dome is a small pond?
ROX: All I am SAYING is that when it comes to over all promotion status around the world…Adian Future has never performed under the big lights. I just don’t think it’s going to be as hype as everyone is making it out to be.
Lela: Well I don’t know what Rox is talking about. My man is Wrestling AF.
Bobby: Your man?
Lela: I have been a Future fan from day one. And for your information Adian Future was born under the big lights.
Bobby: Well if we want to talk about pedigrees its hard to not mention the Prodigal Son of one of wrestling’s most controversial and often underrated figures.
ROX: Hold up Hold up. I got stop you both right there cuz I know where you are going with this.
Lela: oh really?
ROX: Yes I do. Every conversation about Adian that comes up someone tries to bring in who his daddy is. Justin Time was one of the all-time greats, super underrated a modern day Rowdy Roddy no one is taking that away for JT. But Adian is NOT his dad.
Lela: I’m not saying he is.
ROX: nah nah you’re just saying he’s going to be great because his dad was great.
Lela: I was not
ROX: I think you were
Bobby: I think what Lela was trying to say was that Adian isn’t a stranger to the big stage of pro-wrestling.
ROX: Being a kid backstage isn’t the same.
Lela: Tell that to the Ortons-
Bobby: the Usos
Lela: A little known guy by the name of Dwayne “The ROCK” Johnson!
Rox put his hands up in defeat.
ROX: alright alright all I am saying
-
Lela: Is that you’re a hater
ROX: all I am saying is that I am going to reserve my judgement until we see how he does on THY. He’s good for sure but sometimes that’s not enough.
Bobby: Well we are going to figure it out because Adian’s first match in THY WWE is against a challenging competitor Travis Decon Hall. I don’t know if you saw the video of what Travis and his wife had to say about Adian but they seem to be on the same page as you Rox they think that Adian is going to have to prove he deserves his spot on the roster.
ROX: Hey when you’re right you’re right.
Lela: and when you’re wrong you’re wrong. Adian Future has never done anything but put on amazing matches.
ROX: Outside of the Thy WWE. The wrestling business is about the here and now. Adian has got to prove himself on this stage.
Bobby: What do you think of Melissa’s claims that if Adian manage to beat Travis in their match he should just pack it up and go home?
ROX: A wrestler’s debut is important. It’s awful hard to come back from a loss on the first time out.
Bobby: Lela? It’s obvious your Team Infinity. What do you think of Adian’s chances on coming out on top on this first time out.
Lela: I think that Travis Hall and all of the WWE is about to see what the next level looks like.
ROX: Whoa!
Bobby: Well you all heard it hear folks bold claims by Lela here on Beyond the Ropes. Breaking news of The Young Gun, Adian Future signing with Thy WWE his first match against TDH, Travis Decon Hall. When we come back we will bring you more from Thy WWE as well as wrestling all over the world but before we head to commercial it looks like we have a clip from the official Adian Future web page where The Man of Tomorrow himself apparently has a few words for the Freakin Decan.
While in the studio nothing changed if one was watching the show streaming online there would be a quick flash of the “Beyond the Ropes” logo before the entire scene would shift dramatically.
Gone was the brightly light studio space now only a dimly light room seeming filled with fog or some kind of light smoke. In the room was a chair an end table with a few flickering like beacons in the haze. Sitting in the chair was the sillotte of a man. Even in the dim light and the swirling smoke it could be seen that the man was wearing a nice suit and a fancy watch that caught the candle light and sent it glinting into the fog.
After a few seconds of silence the man in the chair leaned forward into view and the smiling face of Adian Future could be seen.
AF: Thy WWE…..Welcome to the Future.
Adian takes a long drag on his cigar before setting in the holder on the table beside him. After a second he blows the smoke out from behind his smile adding to the overall haze in the room.
AF: I gotta admit I never saw my self stepping foot in the place. I have been all over the world and wrestled in front of countless people just to cement myself that I was the best that the world had to offer. But no matter where I went no matter how many titles I strapped around my waist I kept getting met with the same question. あなたはいつWWEに来ますか？
Adian leans back in his chair for second allowing the smoke to cover his face again. Though he leaned back forward to be seen shaking his head with a smile.
AF: Yeah I was shocked too. Even on the other side of the globe somehow this glorified bingo hall is still what people are asking me about. Well I’m not sure how you did it but it looks like you have made an impression and low and behold it paid off because now I am here to bring you all out of the mediocrity you have been drowning in and bring you into the light.
You are welcome.
Adian leaned back with his arms outstretched as if to take in applause. After a second he lowered his arms and pointed to the audience watching through the screen.
AF: You are all about to experience a meteoric rise the likes of which you have never seen in this business. I am going to go down in history as one of, scratch that, THE best competitor who has ever stepped into any ring. Today marks the dawn of a of the age of infinity and trust me when it’s going to be unlike anything this run down shit hole has ever seen before. You think you’ve seen greatest but you haven’t even scratched the surface of what can be achieved. Oh yes people I am about to blow the doors wide open and lucky for you each and everyone one of you can just sit back and watch the magic happen. Because the Man of Tomorrow is here!
The smoke still swirled around the room as the flickering candles cast dancing shadows against the haze. Adian sat back in his chair and placed his leg across the other in a relaxed pose. He lazily reached down to pick up the cigar again though he did not put it to his lips. Merely swirled it around between his fingers.
AF: Now I gotta say. I can tell why you have all have fallen so low on the totem pole. By the grace of the gods you have found away to get the biggest star in this business to join your little high school gymnasium circus and instead of putting him at the top of the card where he was meant to be…you stick him with some dark match jobber at the front of the show. Not a smart business move on your end there but It’s been awhile since you all made a good decision so I’ll throw you bone.
I just feel like you are doing a disservice to your own roster because you have put this no name back wood hick against me…and that’s just not fair. Yeah I heard what him and his old lady said about me, that I have to prove myself, that he is not going to be a stepping stone. The same old song and dance they all go through before they find themselves laid out on their back with my hand in the air.
I don’t know what turnip truck and your holiday inn bride fell off of but allow me to introduce myself. I am better than you. I have been better than you since they cut the cord. On your very best day you still would be miles below what I would be able to do on my worst. Now I am sorry it had to be you, I am sorry I am going to embarrass you in front of your wife. But I didn’t make the match, I didn’t put you in this position and when it’s all over and there are sweeping up your teeth from where they landed in the nose bleeds don’t come looking to me.
You want to me to “prove myself” heh… oh I am going to prove something alright. I am going to prove that you’re right. Yeah surprise. You are not a stepping stone. In fact when I meet you in Brooklyn I am PROVE to the whole world that you’re not even a pebble on the mountain that is going to be my legacy.
But hey…maybe if you’re lucky they’ll put me kicking your ass on my highlight reel someday.
Adian makes a finger gun at the screen and then fires. The screen cuts leaving only black.
The man on the right was a large white man, bald but the shaved kind of bald that made him look much from bad-ass than his receding hairline ever could, and wearing a THY WWE T-shirt. The woman on his left had long red hair that she died to make it bright as a neon sign. Her skin was tan as she had just gotten back from vacation.

the guy with the piercing didn’t respond as he had just took a sip of coffee but he looked at the young man with the clip board and nodded.
