Members of the press have flooded the room. Looking on at a podium backed by a massive Saturday Night's Main Event banner, the buzz around the rooms grows in anticipation. With their cameras and recorders in hand, the press anxiously wait for the door to open, revealing the owner of Saturday Night's Main Event. As the door opens, Shawn steps out. He is wearing a grey suit, sharp as ever. With his cowboy hat sitting upon his head, he steps behind th epodium ready to address the word. With a tip of his hat, he taps the microphone.
Shawn: First off, I would like to thank all the members of the press that have gathered here today. I would also like to thank the many fans that have joined us for this special announcement. As you all know, Saturday Night's Main Event is my baby. I created this place, and it grew to be one of the most successful wrestling companies on the face of the planet. The success we had wasn't just due to me and my hard work. It was due to all the guys busting their tails night in and night out. It was due to all of you fans who tuned in every Saturday night to see what was gonna happen next. For that... I thank you. Now, as you all know... SNME has been closed now for some time. After sitting at home and twittling my thumbs, I got kind of bored. I'll be honest, I love my wife and kids to death. They're the world to me. But what made me who I am is this business. This business allowed me to have my loving family. This business allowed me to have the friends I have. And to be honest, I hated seeing it down in the dumps. I hated seeing it gather dust and cob webs. So... With some financial backing, I opened her back up! I gave a few of the boys a call, and I went hunting for talent, and here we are... The only thing is, we need some direction. We need something to build to. And that's why I've brought you all here today. I am here to announce to you the FIRST pay-per-view of the New Era of Saturday Night's Main Event... Ladies and gentlemen...
Shawn steps back, grabbing a rope. With a swift tug, the SNME banner splits in two, revealing this...
Flashes go off from all across the room, as the media snaps pictures of the Rumble in the Jungle poster.
Shawn: That's right, just like SNME first started off... We're kicking off things with the Rumble in the Jungle! Over the next month, we're goig to build to this show, and we're going to make it one heck of an event. As we have done in the past, a King of the Jungle Tournament will be held to crown a World Heavyweight Champion. But I'm not giving those names out just yet. Ladies and gentlemen, be sure to tune in to the first episode of Saturday Night's Main Event!
Shawn tips his hat to the audience once more, as he makes his way back through the door that he appeared.
