🚒Cruise Ship

[Scene: A cruise ship deck. Johnny Lawrence and Ryback’s mom, Mrs. Ryback is enjoying the ocean view. Suddenly, Mrs. Ryback loses her balance and falls overboard. Johnny reacts quickly, diving into the water to rescue her. He pulls her back onto the deck, but she’s unconscious.]

Johnny: [panicked] Hey, wake up! Come on, baby, don’t do this to me.

[Johnny checks for a pulse and then realizes he needs to perform CPR. He leans in to give Mrs. Ryback mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Just then, the ship captain appears on the scene, furious.]

Captain: What the hell are you doing to Ryback’s mom?!

Johnny: [startled, still performing CPR] It’s not what it looks like, man! She fell overboard, and I’m trying to save her!

Captain: [suspicious] Save her? Looks more like you’re trying to steal her last breath!

Johnny: [frustrated] Look, I’m not trying to steal anyone’s mom! I’m just trying to help!

[Ryback’s mom suddenly wakes up, coughing and sputtering]

Mrs. Ryback: [confused] What’s going on?

Captain: [pointing accusingly at Johnny] He was trying to kiss you!

Johnny: [defensively] I was not! I was giving her CPR!

Mrs. Ryback: [groggily] CPR? Johnny, you’re such a gentleman.

Captain: [still suspicious] Yeah, right. It’s more like a creepy karate guy with boundary issues.

Mrs. Ryback: You should thank him for saving my life!

Captain: Fine. Thanks, Johnny.

Johnny: [grinning] No problem. Just another day in the life of a Cobra Kai badass.

[The captain shakes his head, and the scene fades out with Johnny striking a triumphant pose.]

Raw theme plays ▢️πŸ’₯

Jerry Lawler: “Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Monday Night Raw! We have a special treat for you tonight as we go live to the mansion of WWE CEO Jeff Murrey!”

Mick Foley: “That’s right, King! It looks like Jeff Murrey is pulling out all the stops tonight. I wonder what he has in store for us.”

[The camera cuts to Jeff Murrey’s lavish mansion, where he is standing in front of a grand staircase, wearing a flashy suit.]

Jeff Murrey: “Good evening, WWE Universe! Welcome to my humble abode. Tonight, I’ve invited some of the biggest names in WWE for a night of luxury and entertainment.”

Jerry Lawler: “Wow, would you look at that place, Mick? It’s like something out of a movie!”

Mick Foley: “Absolutely, King! Jeff Murrey sure knows how to live the high life.”

[Just then, the camera pans to reveal several WWE superstars like Austin Theory and Lexis King mingling in the mansion’s opulent ballroom, sipping champagne and enjoying the festivities.]

Jeff Murrey: “And now, without further ado, let’s kick off tonight’s festivities with a special performance by none other than Elias!”

[Elias steps onto a stage in the corner of the ballroom, guitar in hand, ready to serenade the guests with his signature tunes.]

After Elias plays, Thomas Griffith known the world over as Terry Silver steps out clapping πŸ‘

Griffith: “I just want to say Mr. Murrey , that is incredible!”

Jeff Murrey: “Thank you for the kind words. You wanna know what I find incredible, Mr. Griffith?”

Griffith: “Of course.”

Jeff Murrey: “That you think that I am too stupid to realize that you are trying to ruin me. I know who you were on the phone with because he is my guy. We played you. Jesse Ventura is my hall of famer. He is my property and a new board member as well. He has no interest in promoting. He is here to take care of a minor annoyance. Brock Anderson! You see Jesse loves to beat up Andersons. It is a hobby of his. So tomorrow night, he will sign a contract to come out of retirement at NXT Stand and Deliver and deliver the biggest Acrocrane ever to Brock Anderson! As for you…boys…get him!”

Ryback, Elias, Doc Brown, Flex Fuller, and Hook beat Thomas Griffith to a bloody pulp.

[Amidst the chaos, Doc Brown rushes over to Jeff Murrey, looking concerned.]

NXT Level Up Results

03/26/24

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to NXT Level Up! I’m Jerry “The King” Lawler, and alongside me is none other than the notorious Conor McGregor!

Conor: That’s right, Jerry! We’re here to witness a huge moment in wrestling history as wrestling legend, Jesse the Body Ventura comes out of retirement tonight to sign the contract to face the son of his most famous rivalry Arn Anderson at Stand and Deliver!

Jerry: The energy in this building is off the charts tonight!

Eye of the Tiger πŸ…from the Rocky movie begins to play and out comes Jesse Ventura to thunderous almost deafening applause.

After Jesse enters the ring to meet Camden Cross, the iconic four horseman theme plays, and out comes Brock Anderson to a similar reception. Both men clearly at this moment are fan favorites.

Both men stare each other down. Both men sign the contract. The crowds cheers grow louder. Jesse grabs the mic 🎀and the audience begins to quiet down.

Jesse: “I am the best that this sport has ever scene. I don’t brag about it much because I don’t have to. I am a Jeff Murrey guy. I put my faith in survivors. I was with him when he defeated cancer, when he won his first second and third little league baseball championships, all the way up to him graduating college and putting a stranglehold on the creative world of wrestling. I have a history of successfully defeating your father. At Stand and Deliever, nothing changes. I lift another Anderson high in the air for an acrocrane and drop another Anderson straight to hell.”

Commercial break

When we come back from commerical, we see Doc Brown trying to pitch a new idea to CEO Murrey in the bosses offices.

Doc: “Great Jeffrey Scott! I am telling you this is going to make you so much richer!”

Murrey: “Netflix has called me back Doc. They are asking me to fire you if you don’t calm down. The idea of WWE Speed and a Speed championship was a good start but we can’t put six wrestlers around a circular table and have them snort cocaine for three minutes then break for a minute and continue to snort another three until one is left standing. It is insane. I like that you are thinking outside the box but this shit has to stop.”

The camera goes back to Doc and he is standing near a donut box with white powder all over his face.

Tonights Match

Bronson Reed vs Buddy Murphy

With a roar that shakes the rafters, Reed hoists Murphy onto his shoulders, effortlessly executing his signature move, the Tsunami Splash! The impact sends shockwaves through the ring as Reed covers Murphy for the three-count.

The crowd explodes with cheers as Bronson Reed’s hand is raised in victory. Despite Murphy’s valiant effort, it’s clear that tonight belongs to the colossal force known as “The Colossal.”

Winner: Bronson Reed

Before Reed gets a chance to celebrate a video package airs on the screen

As Lexis King walks through the dimly lit streets on a dark, foreboding night, the city lights flicker ominously overhead, casting long shadows that dance across his path. His steps echo hollowly against the concrete, a chilling reminder of the desolation that surrounds him.

With a heavy heart and a burdened soul, Lexis King reflects on the plight of Bronson Reed, a man whose strength is matched only by the weight of his own demons. He speaks softly, his voice barely audible above the distant hum of the city.

“You see, Bronson Reed may be a force to be reckoned with in the ring, but outside those ropes, he’s a prisoner of his own darkness,” Lexis murmurs, his words carrying the weight of unspoken truths. “He carries the scars of his past like a burden, a constant reminder of the pain that haunts him.”

As he continues his solitary journey through the labyrinthine streets, Lexis’s thoughts drift to the battles Reed has fought, both in and out of the ring. He speaks of the sacrifices made, the blood spilled, and the tears shed in the pursuit of glory.

“But even amidst the chaos and turmoil, there lies a glimmer of hope,” Lexis whispers, his voice tinged with melancholy. “For beneath the surface of Bronson Reed’s towering facade lies a heart yearning for redemption, a soul searching for solace in a world consumed by darkness. He is in search of a King. Only I can free you Bronson. I let my past die. I am reborn. At Stand and Deliver, I will redeem you.”
