Corenlius Jethro walks into frame. He is followed by Happenstance, who takes post in the center of the frame. Cornelius huffs and puffs while putting his hair in a hairtie.
"Make me come in on my day off...the week after signing the contract...think they would've mentioned this in the introduction..." Cornelius whinges to nobody in particular.
Once his hair is tied, he puts on the suit jacket he had slung over his arm.
With a sigh, he looks at the camera.
"Well...I guess here we are! Discovery Pro Wrestling! DPW! It's a new venture! A new form of...Action..."
He does a little pair of jazz hands.
After a few seconds of a goofy smile planted on his face, he drops the act and shrugs.
"I don't know man. H-Stance, what do you think?"
Happenstance turns towards his manager.
And just shrugs in kind.
Cornelius returns his attention back to the camera.
"Me either friendo. DPW has potential to set the world on fire. It's got potential to be the pinnacle of where pro wrestlers should go. And it won't take 280 characters or a monotonous diatribe to get people convinced. All they'll need...is my boy...the shining ace...the golden goose...the official product of Jethro Journey Incorporated...a little bit...of Happenstance."
He smirks, and Happenstance poses up.
"An old finality makes way to a new genesis, and unlike the bible, there won't be any question of the type of violence H-Stance was deliver. We're talking high-speed, high-delivery, high-impact, high-flying..."
Each phrase is emphasized with him slapping the back of his hand into the palm of his other.
"...that really hurts my hand, ow..."
He shakes off said hand.
"...enough of a quick-thinker to get the crowd into any show and his opponents completely out of it. Ha ha...that's right, it's not about how hard you hit if you can't even catch the guy. What Action Wrestling needed was a new face, and while H-Stance only has a mask to cover up his ugly mug--"
There's a quick cut-away to some weird signal.

We come back and see Happenstance and Cornelius arguing.
"I'm sorry I called you ugly, but they need to believe the lie if they're going to play along. I mean, have you seen your eyes man, they're like the moon's beams shining down on me! They want to make me sing! 'When the moon hits your eye, like a big pizza--'come on, you know the words--!"
There's another quick cut-away to the same weird signal.

"...while H-Stance only has a mask...quite frankly...it'll be the only thing DPW needs to remember."
Cornelius nods a few times. He turns towards Happenstance, who starts doing the same thing.
Eventually, they turn back towards the camera, their nodding continuing.
Soon, Cornelius smacks Happenstance in the gut, or at least, aims for the gut. He misses and hits him down too low, essentially petertapping the masked wrestler.
"As for the future of DP--ah (BEEP), you alright?"
Another quick cut-away.

"As for the future of DPW...the feuds and fights that will take place are not of our concern. Jethro Journey Incorporated only cares about treating its star with the respect he deserves."
Happenstance nods a couple times in agreement.
Cornelius drops the serious look he adorned with a cheeky smile.
"But since you asked so nicely..."
Happenstance stops and stares at his manager. Cornelius turns to him before regaining his serious look. He turns back to the camera.
"...you will receive no answer anyway! The future is unforeseen, but one thing's for sure, DPW...if you find yourself in the middle of the ring, having lost and out of breath...it's not coincidence...it's not fate...it's not even destiny...it's just..."
The two men share a brief look and a nod before resuming their stare into the camera.
"...Happenstance."
