Scene fades in. An old man is standing at a podium with notes in front of him.
Who is Apokalypse?
"Apokalypse is a professionally training sports entertainer, who has traveled the world since for nearly twenty years. He was trained in his mid-teens by a local legend who saw potential in the multi-sport athlete. He debuted under a mask and kept it until he became an adult. By then, he was already sox-foot-two and weighed just about two hundred pounds. Up until recently, he has not performed on national television in over a decade."
What is Apokalypse?
"Apokalypse is a warmachine. Plain and simple. He is a brawler, a fighter, a warrior, a maniac. It doesn't matter if his opponent is big, tall, short, small. He is an equal opportunity destroyer."
When is Apokalypse?
"Apokalypse is now. He is here in SFT right now and everyone is on notice. E v e r y o n e. Robert Saints. Twilight. Louis Cypher. Jamo. Cassandra. Reaper. Reno Destiny. Rumpke. Jackson Kent. Redd. Emerson Embry. Jack Jones. Each and every one of them will fight Apokalypse at some point in time."
Where is Apokalypse?
"Now? An undisclosed location. Soon? Denver, Colorado. That's where Apokalypse will systematically dismantle Jack Jones in front of the entire world. Jack is a good ol' boy, never meanin' no harm. Soon he will be retired and back home in Oklahoma where he belongs. City life isn't for him, and Apokalypse will make sure he never returns."
Why is Apokalypse?
"Because the world is a terrible place and he is the solution to all of our problems. He will cleanse the world and rebuild it in his image… starting with SFT. Jack Jones has friends in low places… so hopefully he warns them of their impending doom. He is the first victim of Apokalypse. He is the beginning of the end. He is the-----"
*slam*
The lights go out and there is a scuffle in the darkness. When the light returns, all we see is Apokalypse, the newest signee to SFT.
"Hello, Strike Fantasy Towers. I am the one called Apokalypse. I am here to do unspeakably terrible things to the SFT roster until it is no more. First up is Jack Jones. He is the welcoming party… and he will soon regret agreeing to this match. When I arrive in Denver for the first time in years… there will be nothing but darkness until I leave town. While there… I will make an example out of young Jack. He will be a warning shot to all of SFT: abandon all hope, ye who enter here!"
"I have a vast history in this business… and I don't plan on divulging where I have been. None of it matters. Not the countless titles that I have yet to lose. Not the organizations I have laid waste to. Not the unfortunate souls who will never find peace because of their defeat at my hands. None of it matters. What matters is what I am up to today, right here, right now. I am less than two weeks away from my SFT debut… and I will definitely get all of your attention because of Jack Jones."
"Thank you for your sacrifice, young man. You are providing a great service by agreeing to be my first victim. You are the first on my quest to remake this organization in my image. When the entire world is fixed… I will make sure to memorialize you in the form of a statue. Would you prefer to be riding a horse? I assume that's what cowboys still do. With or without the horse… you will not be forgotten. I can promise you that, young man. You will be cherished for your great sacrifice at Titans 81."
"I like that these events are numbered. The previous eighty episodes mean nothing now that I am risen. I assure you all… that by Titans 100… that I will be Hardcore, Intercontinental AND World Champion… simultaneously. No matter who the champion is… I am coming for them. One by one by one… you will all be defeated by Apokalypse. I… am… inevitable…"
Scene fades out.

"The Apokalypse is not something which is coming.
The Apokalypse has arrived in major portions of the planet
and it's only because we live within a bubble of incredible
privilege and social insulation that we still have the luxury of
anticipating the Apokalypse."
