A large number of Men in wrestling gear are seen crossing the plains, some of them have hand carts, others with bags over their shoulders. A man near the front has a belt on, he is leading the way. A news crew hurries up to his side and begins to interview him as he walks.
Reporter: This is Lindsey Travis for KPLX news, we are here outside of Grand Forks North Dakota as a mass exodus of wrestlers seem to be headed north for some reason, here we are with the World Heavy Weight Champion Thrasher The Beast, Mr. Thrasher your group of wrestlers have been walking for what seems like days, why have you been walking and where have you been walking too?
Thrasher: Well my dear reporter I just want to say we're trying to get out of this state, this state which only hicks and trailer trash come from.
Cut to a family watching tv in their living room. They all boo loudly and point their thumbs down. The mother is holding a sign which says "Dethrone Thrasher"
Cut back to the wrestlers in the field.
Reporter: Yes I understand that you've said your line as you've gone through each state you've walked through, but really, why are you leaving and where are you going to?
Another man quickly cuts in front, he is a debonaire man with a suit and cane.
Ted Debonaire: We are going to a local wrestling ring where I will defeat Thrasher for the World Heavyweight championship and reclaim what is rightfully mine, bringing back prestige to the Championship.
Cut to family cheering in front of tv, mother is holding a sign which says, "Ted is Hot!"
Cut back to the field.
Reporter: Yes well that's nice and good, but seriously now, you're all human beings not just story line characters, so is this all just a publicity stunt or do you actually have a reason for what you are doing.
Thrasher: Well miss, I guess you hadn't heard but our program has been moved from the U.S.A. network to Friday Nights on the C.A.N.A.D.A. network. We're just on our way there.
The reporter stops Thrasher.
Reporter: You aren't serious are you?
Thrasher: When you're champion, you're always serious. Now stand aside you country yokel.
Thrasher pushes her aside as the wrestlers continue their journey.

This post has struck my fancy--somehow, the world is more beautiful with this post in it.
The world is more beautiful with you in it, Jon.
Side note: the word verification for this is 'anksest'. Is this like having sex with your cousin's ankles?
