Paul Heyman pulls up to the Hardy Compound in Cameron, North Carolina, in a rented Mercedes Benz. The Wiseman of the Bloodline is not here today in that capacity and he doesn’t want to be there, but it’s the only option he’s had after years of exploring others.
Out of nowhere, “Broken” Matt Hardy appears with his arms spread wide and a broad grin. Heyman slams on his brakes and damn near has a heart attack.
“Brother Paul, I have been expecting you,” Hardy intones.
“You have,” Heyman questions.
“Your assistant called ahead,” Hardy explains.
They walk inside and sit in the parlor. Heyman does away with all pleasantries.
“I’ve been told that your Lake of Reincarnation has the ability of time travel,” Heyman states.
“It is true, Brother Paul. We have plucked wrestlers from the past out of its mystic waters such as Randy Savage and Kerry Von Erich,” Hardy recounts from one of my previous feds that I didn’t bother to look up what year it was.
“Could someone enter the water and go back in time as well,” Heyman asks.
Hardy leans back in his chair and crosses his hands in front of his face as he ponders. “It has not been done, Brother Paul, but I guess it could happen. Is there a certain year and place you wish to travel to?”
“Of course. The time is 1997 and the place is Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. My goal, is to make Extreme Championship Wrestling the number one promotion in the United States and still viable today,” Heyman rants.
“And how would you intend to do that,” Hardy quizzes.
“It’s simple. Vince McMahon destroyed the territories and won the Monday Wars because of superior talent. So, I’m going to provide my past self with modern talent never before seen back in the day,” Heyman explains.
“And who would you send back,” Hardy asks.
“Well, me for starters…” says a voice from the shadows. CM Punk emerges.
Matt Hardy leaps up to his feet, hisses like a cat and then repeats “delete, delete, delete” while making a slashing arm gesture.
“Relax, Amazing Kreskin. I mean you know harm,” Punk mockingly puts his hands up.
Hardy’s face then suddenly turns puzzled. “Wait…where did you come from?”
“I hid in the trunk of the car until just now. It’s called a dramatic reveal,” he says.
“You are willing to go back in time for this crazy scheme of Brother Paul’s,” Hardy asks.
“Yes, and I’m not the only one,” Punk gestures out the window and we see about another 20 current day wrestlers.
“That’s a big car trunk,” Hardy states.
We then cut to the Lake of Reincarnation and several wrestler standing in the waters just off shore. Matt Hardy wades into it as well and stands next to CM Punk.
“I will need to guide your way, but don’t worry the conduit will remain open between our time and the past,” Hardy says. Punk just kind of rolls his eyes.
Heyman looks on from the shore. “You are not coming, Brother Paul,” Hardy asks.
“No, my past self will no what to do. Just give him the tools and he will renovate the house of ECW,” Heyman said. And with that, they all blink out of site.
