A new season... a new Playboy (for first show next season)

The arena goes dark and a video begins to play on the videotron. As soon as the music begins, The Playboy walks through the curtain and takes his time walking down to the ring and then around the ringside area. He pauses by 4 guys sitting in the first row and shakes their hands. Playboy also slaps hands with anyone else around ringside and takes his time mounting all 4 corners in the ring and striking his pose so that the entire video plays.



The Playboy pauses after the video ends and the lights go back on. He then points to the 4 guys at ringside.

Reggie : Holy crap!! Do you know who those guys are, Brandon?

Brandon: No, I can't say that I do - but I'm sure we're going to find out!

Playboy : First things first. I would like to thank these guys right here, who I'm sure most of you know, who approached XFW management with a theme song for The Playboy. For those of you who do not know, these 4 guys right here are David Draiman, Dan Donegan, Mike Wengren and John Moyer.. better known as Disturbed. Thank you, guys... it is an awesome tune and it's the title track of their newest album Indestructible.

Now I'm sure you're all expecting me to come out here ranting and raving about my loss at Worlds Collide. But the fact is... it really doesn't matter. If anything, this whole situation with Diamond Troy Justice and The Doll taught me one thing - although it's an awful lot of fun to be with a whole lot of ladies all over the world... it is nice to have one single woman who remains with you.

Therefore, I would also like to thank the Doll and Diamond Troy Justice. Without the Justice-Man betting his wife in a match he couldn't win, I would probably never have realized that. And without the Doll, well... I would have never realized what it would be like to have one person always by your side ready to do anything you like of them. And without Justice-Man having the nuts to challenge me once again, and get on my nerves just enough to ensure that I would put the Doll on the line at Worlds Collide, I would have never known what it's like to not have something you coveted for so long.

I vow to you all, here in this arena, and those of you watching on television - you are now seeing a NEW Playboy, with a new vision on life, and new priorities. Fasten your seatbelts... we're in for one hell of a ride.

*Indestructible begins to play over the PA system again while The Playboy leaves the microphone in the middle of the ring then shakes hands with the members of Disturbed once again. Disturbed all give the sign and stick their tongues out to the camera and the camera then turns back to The Playboy who begins to slap hands with anyone sticking their hands over the barrier for him. He pauses to gently kiss the hands of all the ladies who reach out to him while he walk back up the top of the ramp, where he turns and strikes one last pose before heading behind the curtain.*



Reggie : Wow...(pauses) I.. I....I don't exactly know what to make of that.

Brandon : A new Playboy? Is that a good thing, or a bad thing? Did he really just thank Doll and Diamond Troy Justice?

Reggie : I believe we did hear just that... maybe he needs some kind of evaluation. After what happened at Worlds Collide, he's thanking them?

Brandon : He must have lost too much blood. I can't believe we just heard all that... just what is in the water here at XFW?

Reggie : It's in the water? (looks at his water bottle and then tosses it on the floor beside him) I've had enough, thanks..
