The Savannah River is in the background as the cameras open to show 'Lighting Guy' Jimmy Floyd and Wonderman Waldo standing, each wearing DWF Logo Windbreakers. Bright lights shine down as the moonlight illuminates the background on the other side of the river.
Welcome to another edition of The Weekend Update with the Two Man Powertrip, I'm Jimmy Floyd and with me as always, the man, the myth, and STILL the legend in his own mind, Senior Referee Wonderman Waldo.
Waldo touches his finger to his forehead then does some silly motion as Jimmy looks on.
Will you just give that up?
Can't Jimmy. It's a thing. Even has its own Twitter account.
Can't Jimmy. It's a thing. Even has its own Twitter account.
It does not!
It will... as soon as we're done with this.
Waldo does the same motion again. Jimmy just simply looks at Waldo then back to the camera.
Well I guess if a Blue Shark and a Cat can have a twitter, why can't a finger motion. But enough of that, let's get to the Two in Two with the TMP. As you can see behind me, we're here on River Street, just in front of me is Rusty Rudders Tap House, site of one of the biggest St Patrick's Day parties here in Savannah, and it's just a stones throw, well a person's throw, to the Savannah River behind me.
The camera switches to show Jimmy with pictures on either side of him.
And in just five days, at Shamnrock Showdown, one of these eight will do just that- toss one of their opponents into the Savannah River, and take home the Defiant Title.
The camera switches to show Waldo with the same pictures on either side of him.
I don't envy any of the eight. But you do have eight very unique individuals from all backgrounds. You have experienced fighters, you have returning grapplers, you have fresh faces, and you have a couple wild cards.
The camera switches back to a Jimmy and Waldo two-shot with Jimmy nodding in agreement.
In some matches, you can kinda get an idea on how it's expected to go. But with this match, it's near impossible.
You first have to get through your match, then you have to see which other three will be in the match, then the elements come into play. The Distance, the Roads, the Buildings, the Partygoers, the River, and, oh yeah, you have three others trying to toss you in. This is unlike anything anyone has ever seen. a DWF original, and it happens every year at Shamrock Showdown.
Jimmy shakes his head in agreement.
But that's not the only match we have coming up in just five days.
Waldo turns his head with a smile, holding up three fingers. The camera switches to show him on the left and three pictures to the right.
The original three way dance rears its head as the remaining roster members square off with the winner headlining the Main Event for TNT- The Show in Pensacola on the 29th.
The camera switches to show Jimmy on the left and the same three pictures to the right.
And in this match, three different personalities collide but only one can get the big money at the end of the night, and more importantly, the Main Event match at Pensacola.
The camera switches back to a Jimmy and Waldo two-shot and Waldo points over to Jimmy.
We have confirmed some information that we speculated on last week. The Titan Title, which looks to have its roots based on the old DWF Television Title, will be on display at Pensacola, and the Main Event Winner in Pensacola, may have the inside track to being the first Titan Champion.
Now this is a surprise, the ring announcer and lead newscaster for the DWF Newsline, Stephi Zucconi!
Waldo gives a quick applause as Stephi walks in between the two.
I couldn't let you two have all the fun, now could I?
Absolutely not, plus, the ratings just went up by 100%.. we went from one viewer to two as you showed up. Thanks Twitter Notifications!
Waldo gives a Thumbs up as Stephi laughs. The picture changes as Stephi looks ahead and the camera switches to show her with a picture on either side of her.
With all of the hype given to our roster members, I'd like to give a little shout-out to our guests as they will be facing off in the One Shot Match. Two different styles and two very good wrestlers to boot, and they'll be facing off against one another in a DWF ring.
The camera switches back to Jimmy, Stephi and Waldo.
As we said last week, If we could manage to keep them here, even just one of them, it would open up so many options for more One Shot Matches.
More butts in seats and more eyeballs on screens.
Jimmy and Waldo both look at Stephi with raised eyebrows. She looks at one then the other.
Waldo looks at Jimmy, who looks back at him, then they both look back at Stephi.
Well, good. Now one thing I wanted to ask both of you guys, I've actually been told who one of the legends will be in the match at Shamrock Showdown, but I don't know who he is. So, can you help me out?
Who's the guy?
Wait! Whisper it to us.
Stephi leans over and whispers in Waldo's ear then leans back.
Nope.
Who?
Stephi leans over and whispers in Jimmy's ear then leans back.
Are you sure?
Positively. I saw the contract signed from Jana herself.
Jimmy and Waldo look at each other and simply shake their heads.
It fits with the setting.
Most definitely.
So should we tell them?
All three of them look at each other then smile.
Don't blame me everyone, they wrangled me into this as well.
On that note, we'll bid you adieu. Five nights from now, someone will be the Defiant Champion and someone else will be all wet. So for our guest, Stephi Zucconi and the Legend himself.
Waldo and Stephi both touch their fingers to their foreheads, doing Waldo's silly motion once more as Jimmy just shakes his head.
I'm Jimmy Floyd, This has been the Weekend Update with the Two Man Powertrip and We are Outta here!
Waldo and Stephi begin to laugh as Jimmy simply shakes his head as the camera fades to black.
