[The scene fades in showing eight men
standing side by side backstage. A familiar NRWL face, Mr. Lifeguard,
steps forward]
Mr. Lifeguard: Hello NRWL! Remember me?
I'm your old pal, Mr. Lifeguard! You're probably wondering right now
“Mr. Lifeguard, where oh where have you been?” Well that's an
easy answer! Saving lives of course! But when I wasn't at the beach
rescuing people from dangerous waters, I was wrestling in my father's
company, HAW! Unfortunately...my father was thrown from the top of a
building and had company power seized from him, and I failed in my
attempt to get the company back resulting in many wrestlers being
fired! But have no fear! I took some of my fellow unemployed
wrestlers, and I'm bringing them here to NRWL! Let's go down the line
and meet some of them!
[Lifeguard approaches an Italian man]
Mr. Lifeguard: Right here is none other
than Franco Mancini! Franco has had some-
Franco Mancini: Shut up! I had a pretty
good gig on when I was with HAW until you screwed everything up! I
mean, the pay I was getting there? Couldn't be beat! I was a three
time World champion! Life was good! …..But you know what?
NRWL...that's got a little bit more name recognition. That's more
opportunity for me, and I seize opportunity! The NRWL needs fresh
blood, and I will provide that. So you guys...you better watch out!
Mr. Lifeguard: Ah, Franco! That's the
fighting spirit, good job! Next in line, we have my great friend
making his return to NRWL, El Termitas!
El Termitas: Debut.
Mr. Lifeguard: Excuse me?
El Termitas: Making my debut.
Mr. Lifeguard: Of course! My good
friend, El Termitas, making his NRWL debut!
El Termitas: Thank you Lifeguard. And
while I've never worked here before, I've always been a fan of the
NRWL! I'm looking forward to getting in the ring with everyone in
this roster, from legends to new, undiscovered talent in development!
Maybe I'll end up capturing the NRWL championship, maybe I'll team up
with my pal Mr. Lifeguard and capture the tag titles, or maybe I'll
just put on entertaining matches for the fans! At the end of the day,
I'm just going to enjoy this experience!
Mr. Lifeguard: Unless you get a career
ending injury! Moving on down the line, we have Benjamin the Blessed,
and The Filthy Friar, The Holy Duo! How do you guys feel about
joining the NRWL?
Benjamin: We feel hope. Hope for the
planet. With The Holy Duo wrestling again, we can destroy the world's
sinners, one match at a time. A wrestler is a cruel man. Focusing on
brutalizing an opponent, until they are left to drown in their own
blood. And what for? A piece of gold. Greed runs rampant in this
company! Unfortunately for humanity, violence can only be ended BY
violence. We will end the reign of the sinners, and we will begin a
new age of peace. Di te incolumem custodiant.
Mr. Lifeguard: We may need El Termitas
to translate that Spanish for us! Lastly, we have a strange group of
people, Crash MuscleGate, Frederic St. Pierre, and Lovable Liam! I'm
glad to see the three of you guys made it!
Crash: We didn't have a choice!
Everywhere I went, people were asking me two questions: “Crash, can
you tell me the secret ingredient in your protein shake?” and
“Crash, when are you and the MuscleGang coming back?” Well the
answer to those questions are “No!” and “Now!” I'm back, and
my cardio is off the charts! Frederic, how would you describe my
cardio before?
Frederic: Magnifique!
Crash: Exactly! And now, it's perfect!
I've got my two workout partners, and we're ready to show some new
folks what we do!
Frederic: I echo the sentiments of mon
ami. And I also warn the NRWL roster...beware of stereotypes. One may
view moi, as a cowardly Frenchman. One may view this HAW roster
as...rejects. We are not. We are to be taken seriously. If you fail
to do that, you will be in for a surprise.
Liam: Exactly! Look at the muscles on
these boys here! They are sooooo strong! I've wrestled everyone standing here, and I can safely say, the things they can do to you in the ring, you'll remember for a long time to come! But I also agree with El Termitas! I want to wrestle everyone I can! I'll take on all comers!
Mr. Lifeguard: Wow, what a show of confidence from Lovable Liam! You just gotta love him! Well NRWL, we hope you're ready for us! It's going to be a good season!
