It's late at night and three men stumble outside through Killie's doors. They're goofing around, laughing, having fun. What started as one last strategy meeting before Super Glory quickly turned into a night out with good drinks, great music and even better friends. Rogers and Pierre say their goodbyes, leaving Chesterton on his own.
Shredsbury isn't heading home yet. He just got a notification from his favorite app. The waves are supposed to be great tonight and no matter the hour, he cannot resist the ocean's call. Chesterton heads to the beach and retrieves the board he stashed under the boardwalk. He walks into the surf and places his board down... only for it to sink like a brick. Chester is shocked. He holds the board up in the moonlight and sees dozens of puncture marks. The look like they were made by something sharps, like a knife, or a screwdriver, or a... beak?
Cut to...
Rogers thanks the cabbie and closes the door. It's a pleasant night and he will walk the last few blocks. He turns right on the intersection and sees his humble abode at the end of the road. As he gets closer he notices that his front door is open. Rogers starts running. As he gets closer he notices that the door has been rammed in. The fearless Red Pirate wastes no time and rushes in to confront the intruder, but he is too late. Whoever did this is long gone. There are holes in his walls, his prized possesions have been smashed and his furniture has been reduced to nothing but splinters and dust. It looks like a storm has gone through this house, or maybe a wild animal...
Cut to...
Pierre is pouring himself one last beer before going to bed, but his attention is with his phone. Chesterton and Rogers have been sending him messages non-stop for the last 15-20 minutes. He tries to open them, but it is hard to operate the device. Unfortunately they don't make smartphones especially for giants. As he struggles to input his passcode he absent mindedly takes a sip of his beverage... and spits it right back out. This isn't beer! A red, viscous liquid drips from Pierre's mouth. He holds up his glass only to see that it is filled with blood.
Cut to...
All three men suddenly hear an ominous voice coming from their phones:
... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH... THE END IS NIGH...
(OOC: I don't know if we ever decided on where we are located, but it's an oceanside city now)
OOC: It is "Anycity USA". There is as many environments as we need, is as close to anything in the USA as can be reasoned to be, is as big of a city as we think it is, yadda yadda yadda. The only thing it is not is somewhere in Alaska or Hawaii. |

Text message from Red Pirate Rogers to Pierre the Enormous:
"I'll meet you both at Killie's. I have a bit of business to take care of first."
He turns off the phone and walks tentatively down the hallway of the local medical facility, to where Johnny Kobra is standing beside Penguino's bed discussing strategy. He sees Rogers and gets up defensively.
"Easy Johnathan, I'm not about to challenge you to another match like in Guadalajara. I came to see your protege."
Penguino looks up from the bed as Rogers comes over.
"I didn't get a chance to do this in the ring," he extends a hand for a shake, "I know that Jonathan should give you all the help you need, but if your erstwhile teammates insist on making things difficult for you, I offer my services, at your command", he bows and makes to leave...but before he can reach the door his legs go rubbery and he topples to one side. Medical personnel rush over and take him away for further examination.

After hearing about Penguino’s grace in defeat at Super Glory, I’m even more excited to give him his dream match this week. It’s starting to become a dream match for me as well. #hesabirdnotaturd

Seems people are wondering about the future of me with the wedding coming up. I'll try to be by Arizona and Tommy's side, barring my own matches. I have my wedding coming up on August 2nd. I'm sure I'll have a batchelor party be thrusted upon me by some of the boys. Rebecca will also have a bachelorette party thrusted upon her. As for a honeymoon...everyday is one when your job moves you around the world.

Conor Caine sustained a serious head injury during his recent bout with Seph Kobane at Super Glory. Since the injury was sustained while Caine was wrestling against doctor's orders, he has been indefinitely suspended from in-ring competition. (1/3)
Caine will be permitted to return to the ring once he is 100% cleared by our medical staff. Unlike at Super Glory, Caine will not be allowed to sign a liability waiver in order to compete. Anyone attempting to circumvent my medical suspension will be released from their JWA contract. (2/3)
In other news, as a result of their victory at Super Glory, I am proud to announce that Big Waves will challenge The Ronin for the World Tag Team Championship at Fortune & Glory on July 23! (3/3)

The kid wants me to earn my title match? Is he joking? I was a main eventer before he was a twinkle in his father's lazy eye! Looks like I'll have to remind everyone of what kind of threat the Doctor of Debauchery presents! God help whoever is across the ring from me on Glory...

You might have too much ring rust. Want to face me and shake some of that off? |

@bigdaddymack reply to @bigdaddyduke
You tried to steal my handle like you tried to steal a title shot. How about this: find yourself a partner, face me in a tag match. You win, you get a title shot. Normally I’d ask Red, but since someone else is already invested in this… @weebwarrior What do you say to a one time team up to make this legend a distant memory again?

Cost a pretty penny but I don't care because it's Kip's cash, not mine. As for your challenge... I'm going to make you wait for my response. Be sure to watch Glory this week, nerds! |

I remember breaking into the biz when @mongooseisloose was main eventing. I also remember the way he treated the rookies. Duke, I haven’t forgotten that you paid the locker room attendant to piss on my gear five minutes before I had to get ready for my first match, and how I had to buy one of Jerk’s T-shirts from the merch stand and wrestle in my jeans that night. (1/2)
It’s why I treat our newcomers with respect, and why I’ll relish every time you get punched in the face in the JWA. Welcome back, pal. May you get nothing that you want and everything you deserve. (2/2)

(1/2) @mongooseisloose on Chirpy Sounds like it was worth every penny! That experience helped mold you into the person you are today: Multiple time champion; movie star; role model to millions. You can thank me later, kid. |

The one by the name Steriaca? Well, I remember him quite well. It wasn't long before he got his big break. He wasn't an immediate star thoe. I'm quite certain you don't remember him. Pity. |
