Cameras open up on the one and only Shane sitting in his golden throne with his massive golden desk in front of him that basically looks like a wooden king size bed that doubled in size. The sacred "Shane's Golden Potato" is sat in the center with a glass case over it. There appear to be a few flies buzzing around inside the case...

Shane's grin is ear to ear as he begins.

Welcome! Welcome! Today is indeed a day of welcoming. I welcome all of you here to help ME welcome the newest member of XWF management! This man has the credentials it takes to be given immediate FULL CONTROL of any and everything that falls under the "24/7 umbrella" here in the XWF!

That means, among other things, he is the NEW official and has final say for all 24/7 X-treme Championship attacks, pin attempts, disputes and the like. He also will be overseeing all activity with the Federweight Championship with the help of Thomas Girard. He may also organize special "24/7 Interaction" events with special perks or prizes that might be awarded or competed for somehow... whatever THAT means.

This man is also going to be appearing on XWF shows as he sees fit to help maintain the quality and dignity that the XWF audience has come to expect over the last 17 years.

Shane turns to a big monitor behind him.

Ladies and gentlemen I give to you...














GLADIATOR!

Shane continues watching the screen behind him, waiting for Gladiator to appear on it and say a few words to the world...
