]Tom Hannifan]
Welcome one and all to another exciting episode of Octane! I'm tom joined by my partner-

[Pat Mcaffe]
Pat Mcaffe! And tonight we got quite the night lined up for you all!
We got some tag team action for you as the unlikely pair of R Truth and The Hurricane will take on Father and Son Rey and Dominik Mysterio

]Tom Hannifan]
Later tonight we will see Finn Balor, AJ Styles, Seth Rollins and Austin Theory all face off in a fatal four way

]Pat Mcaffe]
Two former Bullet Club member now foes. I wonder if their past will come into play at all? The New number one conterder Sami takes on his biggest challenge yet. The Phenom!

[Tom Hannifan]
And if that wasn't enough, The main event pits Carmella and The Number one contender Bayley, against The Submission Machine Shayna Baszler and the Terrifying Women's Champion, Alexa Bliss. This is must see TV people

]Pat Mcaffe]
But no-

Suddenly the lights hit the arena. A hush envelops the crowds and the two commentators. Confusions and hushed whispers scatter among the people as suddenly the light on the titantron lights up. The image on the titantron is a dark room with one light sourse. One lantern. The lantern and is slowly lifted to reveal the face of Bray





From the top of the ramp appears Bray. But he's not just holding his lantern

]Pat Mcaffe]
Is that-?

Pat trails off as he refers to what's in Bray's left hand. Snug, undernethe his right arm is none other than the Undertakers urn. A see of lighters and cellphone lights light up around the arena, bring a small but brief smile to the face of Wyatt who starts to make his way to the ring



Bray finds himself standing in the middle of the ring. He brings the lantern to his lips and finally blows out the flame, cuing the to the lights back on in the arena. When it does, Bray is given a microphone and paces around the ring. His eyes marveled on the urn. The Urn of the Undertaker

Bray Wyatt
This item here needs zero introduction. Anyone who has watched this sport knows what this is. But just in case you didn't know, this right here, is the Undertaker's urn. An urn, that has been used to control that monster that we call the Undertaker. Something to use to either bring his wrath swiftly on an enemy or even used to protect yourself from him. As a younger man, I often wonder what it would be like to see. This To hold it. And people I must say...this is intoxicating for sure. I can see why you'd hide this away Taker

The grip that Bray has on the urn is like a vice grip. As if someone might pop out of nowhere and steal such a precious item from him

Bray Wyatt
You see, throughout the years I have been called many things. A leader, a mad man, a cult leader, the antichrist, it all goes on and on. All those things are debatable, what I can tell you for a fact I am...is a revolutionary. A prophet. And more importantly...I'm a witch doctor. A Shaman if you will. I am well well versed in magic. And upon touching that urn...I knew it was no normal urn

Bray brings it closer to his chest and you can see the effect the urn is having on him

Bray Wyatt
This might look like a regular urn. But it's not. This urn has been responsible for The Undertaker being so dominant for so long. So strong despite his age. Fast despite his body aging. In this urn..I can FEEL the souls of every man women and child that has ever breathed air on this earth. In this urn, I can hearing the screaming, the agony, of the souls trapped and stolen by the dead man. And each and everyone of those souls supplies power. And I want that power no, I crave it Just like I crave the end of you Undertaker

Bray holds the lantern high into the air, slowly settling down on one knee, mocking the Deadman

Bray Wyatt
I am going to strip away everything that makes you special Undertaker. I am going to wrap my hand around your neck, and I will drain you of all your powers. Watch your eyes roll back in your head for the final time before I lay you down to that eternal slumber that you so desperately need. I will-

Without warning a lightning bolt strikes the urn Wyatt is holding his his hand. Spark fly in random directions as Bray quickly drops the Urn. The crowd shriek in surprise as Bray drops the urn quickly and holds his right hand in pain. Bray shakes his hand as he cautiously approaches the now smoking hot object. Bray looks at, and where the lightning came down before smiling. Knowing who sent that lightning bolt

Bray Wyatt
That won't be enough to kill me!

Bray falls to his knees in front of the urn, screaming to the ceiling basically. Suddenly his eyes dart to the camera

Bray Wyatt
We're just getting started...

As Octane returns from a commercial break, it’s obvious some of the crowd still isn’t sure what to make of Bray Wyatt's spooky segment, but the show must go on either way.

[Charly Caruso]
Ladies and gentlemen, my guest at this time, making his XWL in-ring debut here tonight, Rick Boogs!

Rick Boogs steps into frame sporting a purple singlet matching the shade of Octane, and the crowd cheers in excitement to once again see the man who rocked for them last week, and in anticipation of his first match.

[Rick Boogs]
Thank you very much Charly but before you start your interview I have just one question for you and the XWL Universe watching if you’d be so kind.

[Charly Caruso]
Go for it.

[Rick Boogs]
Charly, XWL Universe, my one question is…. ARE YOU READY TO ROCK WITH R-I-C-K B-O-O-G-S RICK BOOGS?

As soon as he finishes his question, the XWL Universe in attendance responds in kind, signifying that they yes, they are definitely ready to rock.

[Pat Mcaffe]
I’m ready to rock, I’m so ready to rock!

[Tom Hannifan]
Pat!

[Pat Mcaffe]
Oh yeah, sorry, being quiet now.

[Charly Caruso]
Well I have to say the XWL Universe certainly is “ready to rock”, and I’ll say so am I. My first question now is, last week we got our first look at you, and it was certainly “unique” to say the least, as I’m sure I’m not the only one who had never seen an XWL superstar playing the guitar before. What inspired such a bold first appearance?

[Rick Boogs]
Well Charly let me tell you something. Rocking is a lot of things to me. Most importantly though, it’s a way of life. Rick Boogs is someone who’s always rocking, 24/7. And sometimes, to demonstrate that, you just gotta take it a little literal with some solo action and that’s exactly what I did last week! Sometimes the music just flows through me and there’s nothing I can do about it besides unleash it on those around me. Speaking of which, I think it’s starting to take over me right now!

Boogs suddenly bursts into… an air guitar solo? Charly takes a step back and laughs, not totally knowing what to do about what’s happening.

[Rick Boogs]
Don’t fight it Charly, rock out with me let’s go!

[Charly Caruso]
Well as much as I’d love to, I do have another question, which is how are you preparing for your debut match against the returning Miz here tonight?

Boogs finishes out his air guitar solo before answering the question.

[Rick Boogs]
Well Charly, you see all these muscles here? These aren’t just for show. These beauties were crafted by the gods of rock and thunder to craft a perfect specimen, and that’s exactly what stands here before you. The Miz may be a crafty little weasel, but tonight he’s not going to stand a chance against my brute electric strength!

Boogs tilts his head back and begins to let loose a battle cry of sorts.

[Rick Boogs]
YEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-





[The Miz]
"Who in the hell do you think you are, calling The Miz a weasel? I'm the most Must See superstar in all of XWL History! Unlike you with your crappy 80's porno mustache and idiotic air guitar jam sessions, I am an A-list celebrity. I have it all! A beautiful wife and children! A lavish mansion! Because I am entertaining. Yourself, not so much. You should feel honored to even be in my presence. What are you? Some band member? A Fozzy reject? A lost member of The Village People?  You see people actually pay their hard earned money to witness what The Miz has to offer. Whether it be on the silver screen or in that squared circle. And you have the unlucky fate of walking down that aisle and standing toe to toe with the greatest professional wrestler still breathing. You see while you are just now cutting your teeth in this business, I am no stranger to being on top of the mountain. You see kid, I've climbed the ladder numerous occasions here in the XWL and held the World Heavyweight Championship on two separate occasions. I've beaten the likes of Alberto Del Rio, Matt Hardy, hell you name them and they have all fallen victim to the Skull Crushing Finale! So when you step inside that ring tonight just know that you will meet the same fate Sick Boobs or whatever your name is. You see, just as i've done to many before you I'm going to slam you on your face and you'll be a footnote in The Miz's ascension back to the top. Because I am The Miz and I am AAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMEEEE!"  

Boogs and Caruso stand there in shock at the arrogance displayed by The Miz as he turns around and walks off camera.
