“Edward, you’ve just beaten Seth Stevens on the grandest stage… What are you going to do next?”
The scene fades in to find Edward Grado standing with Denise Essex.
EDWARD GRADO- “I’m going to Dinsey World!”
The screen fades into Edward Grado on Avatar Flight of Passage with his arms extended outward. It then fades to getting scared at Revenge of the Mummy as a Mummy pops out on him. It then fades to Edward leading a parade alongside Micky and Minnie Mouse in some Disney-inspired daisy dukes. The scene fades to a massive fireworks display at the Magic Kingdom castle before we find Edward was down on a bartop with an empty pint glass beside him.
“Hey, Mr.”
An arm reaches across the bar and nudges Edward.
“Wake up. We’re closing.”
The arm nudged Edward a second time that started to rouse him. Edward slowly raises his head as he wipes away the drule from under his bottom lip before adjusting his Mickey Mouse ears on his head.
“Are you alright, Mr… oh wait, aren’t you Edward Grado?”
EDWARD GRADO- “Uh huh.”
Edward rubs his eyes.
“Oh damn! I saw what you did at WrestleWars, let me say how big of a fan I am.”
The camera pans back revealing…
“I’m Jamal.”
Jamal extends his hand over the bar. Edward has finally come back to his senses where his eyes grow rather big before immediately transitioning into puppy dog eyes as he reaches out and shakes Jamal’s hand.
EDWARD GRADO- “Nice to meet you.”
Jamal flashes a smile displaying his pearly whites.
JAMAL- “The pleasure is all mine.”
They release their handshake.
JAMAL- “What do you have planned for the rest of the night? It looks like you’ve had a day.”
Jamal points to the Mickey Mouse ears on Edwards head.
EDWARD GRADO- “Ummmm, I dunno.”
JAMAL- “I have an idea. Give me like twenty minutes while I close up. I think I know exactly where to take you, I mean, this is Orlando, there is a lot of nightlife.”
EDWARD GRADO- “Okay.”

Getting past Seth Stevens was the best thing that’s happened to me in the WGWF. Seth counted me out, he tried to end my career, but when push came to shove I opened WrestleWars 2024 on such a high note that I’m still riding the wave of momentum that comes with it. Finally, I started to prove my doubters wrong by showing them that the last thing I am is a joke. Seth Stevens, I’ll give you credit on taking me to places that I forgot existed. I want to thank you… that’s right, I said thank you because you’ve awoken something inside of me that is going to be the bane of existence for the WGWF roster because of you I’ve found myself… and now I want some gold. I’ve found a new home on Monday Night Brawl as well as finding myself dealing with new people, new fights to be had, and more examples that need to be set. The days of all of you laughing in my direction have ended. On Monday Night I will be making my Brawl debut where I fully intend to continue riding this wave of momentum. I don’t expect my opponent to take me seriously, but then again he can’t ride all the rides at Six Flags, or any theme park for that matter when you consider the minimum height requirements. I suppose I should be sure I’m up to date on shin guards.

“Where are you taking me.”
Edwards eyes are covered by Jamal.
JAMAL- “We’re almost there, I promise.”
The lound thumping of dance music can be heard getting louder and louder.
JAMAL- “Okay… are you ready?”
Jamal removes his hands from the eyes of Edward Grado.
Edwards jaw drops as he turns and sees his reflection in the pearly white teeth of Jamal as he has a grin firmly etched across his face. Edward promptly states.
EDWARD GRADO- “NOOOO!”
Edward points at Jamal.
EDWARD GRADO- “Are you like me?”
Jamal winks at Edward which causes Grado to faint as he falls into the muscular arms of Jamal.
JAMAL- “Whoa, whoa… Edward, are you okay?”
We hear the opening of….
[/img]
Jamal continues to check on Edward until the opening beat to Madonna’s “Like a Prayer” is heard coming from inside Savoy’s. Edward’s legs begin to twitch followed by his stomach, and then his eyes before he sits up like he’s The Undertaker. Edward reaches up and is helped up by Jamal before he starts strutting ass toward the front door of the club.
EDWARD GRADO- “Come on!”
Jamal takes off after Edward as they disappear into Savoy.

I’ve never really liked clowns because they’re eiter pervs using makeup as a way to get their jollies or they’re serial killers that bury people under their houses. That begs to question, Pogo, which kind of clown are you? It’s interesting that the new sheriff in town elected to put me up against you because that tells me that he sees me in the same light as you. Nope! I’m not a joke that fluked my way into a title run that should have never happened. What else have you done? I’ll wait. Me, on the other hand, I’ve captivated the hearts and souls of the WGWF universe. They sing me to the ring, who else gets that kind of treatment? Grado-Fever has taken over and now I’m going to use your face as kicking tee when we grace the ring on Monday Night Brawl. I’m going to show that cheap scotch running the show that this is going to be the LAST time he associates me with a clown.
I’ve got my eyes on something bigger than you… which is practically everything…
I’ve got my eyes on the Television Championship. If that means I need to take you and toss you into the deep end of a swinging pool to take one step closer to that goal then that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Maybe then you’ll realize that people aren’t laughing with you, they’re laughing at you. Bring Stitches with you, I’d love for him to get a birdseye view of what I am going to do to you. Don’t worry, little guy. I’ll bring you some phone books to stack up, a step ladder, or something so that you can reach the minimal height to be worth my time. I didn’t ask for this, I was put in this position to slap around a member of the lollypop guild.
At least when it’s all said and done I’ll have a dance at your expense.

The doors to Savoy burst open as the sun begins to rise and in Orlando and out staggers Edward Grado and Jamal. They’re laughing and carrying on before Edward looks at the watch on his wrist.
EDWARD GRADO- “OH NO!”
JAMAL- “What’s up?”
Edward responds.
EDWARD GRADO- “My flight leaves in an few hours. I’ve got to get to the airport.”
JAMAL- “That’s nothing, I got you. Need a ride?”
EDWARD GRADO- “I don’t want to leave, that’s the problem. I’ve had such a good time.
Jamal steps in cutting Edward off with a kiss on the lips. It’s as if time stands still for Edward.
Cher’s “If I can turn back Time” plays softly as the lip lock which seems like eternity continues to take place before both Jamal and Edward draw back from each other.
JAMAL- “I’m sorry…
Edward cuts off Jamal.
EDWARD GRADO- “Don’t be.”
Edward has a school girl grin on his face.
EDWARD GRADO- “Does that mean we’re going to see each other again?”
JAMAL- “That’s up to you, Mr. Grado.”
Jamal whips out his phone and hits a few buttons.
JAMAL: I certainly hope it’s in the equation.”
Edward asks.
EDWARD GRADO- “What are you doing?”
JAMAL- “I’m getting us an uber to the airport, that is if you don’t mind if I accompany you and make sure you’re sent off on time.”
EDWARD GRADO- “I’d love it.”
Several minutes later the Uber pulls up and picks up Jamal and Edward. Our scene fades.

Pogo.
I hate you drew the short straw on this but now I’ve got someone to impress.
It’s just a shame that it isn’t you.
Although I do wonder what would happen is I picked up and shook you like a beer. Will you spew? I suppose we’re going to find out on Brawl, aren’t we?
Toodles.
