We see a darkened set, with silhouettes visible of a table. A voiceover is heard from Rob Cartwright.
Cartwright: Ladies and gentlemen, he is the host of The Piercing Truth, you know his name, the Icon of Entertainment, and the Creative Director of UGWC, he is...TRAVIS PIERCE!
“You Know My Name” by Chris Cornell begins to play, and the lights come on to show a chair sitting backwards behind the desk. A monitor behind the chair shows the logo for The Piercing Truth. The chair slow turns around, revealing Travis Pierce.
Pierce: Welcome to the show! I am Travis Pierce, and welcome to the Piercing Truth, where we are just a few short days away from Sin City in Amsterdam. There will be high rollers, roulette spinning, and a final person left standing. Lots to talk about, we begin with top stories!
Travis switches to Camera B.
Piece: Word on the street is that Warner Brothers has “big plans” for their next Batman v Superman trailer. Of course, having big plans for something doesn’t mean that the subject of those plans won’t go ahead and vanish on you, and be all pouty while doing so. Separate teasers, one focusing on Batman and the other on Superman, will air during episodes of Gotham and Supergirl, respectively. Inspired by this idea, a featurette on the current Cooperative Champions will air during a re-run of Son of Anarchy.
Travis switches to Camera A.
Pierce: Questions have arisen as to the genesis of a Tequila Sunrise. Myth and legend has it that the Rolling Stones accidentally stumbled upon it by accident and it became their go-to drink. A related myth holds that PKA has discovered access to both a calendar and Mapquest that will enable him to continue to attend shows for which he is scheduled. More as it develops.

Pierce: Popeageddon 2K15 continues as his Papalcy plans to tour the Curran-Fromhold Correctional Facility, a super-max facility in Philadelphia. You may wonder why he would want to do such a thing, but the alternative was listening to the Rydell Files and trying to figure out why a podcast has video advertisements.
Travis switches to Camera A.
Pierce: Please welcome my guest for the evening, Donovan Hastings!
The 8-bit synthesizer plays “Centuries” as Donovan comes out and takes a seat on the couch.
Pierce: Welcome to the show!
Hastings: The pleasure, as always, is yours.
Pierce: Well we appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule, after all you might have a series of big matches on Monday.
Hastings: A concern for a lesser competitor given the level of talent I’m going to have to team with, but I carried Jet Somers to a Cooperative Championship reign, I should be able to work with this.
Pierce: It’s not all bad, you might team with me!
Donovan scratches his palm and just stares at Travis.
Pierce: You know I held the titles with Jet a few times.
Donovan squints at him. Travis scratches his head.
Pierce: Right, so what is it you’re here to talk about, then?
Hastings: I’m so pleased that you asked. At Sin City, we’re going to witness the ascension of the next great talent here in UGWC, the newest product of the Dungeon of Pain.
Pierce: You’re talking about Larry, the Conqueror of Planets.
Hastings: I’m talking about the man who is going to make a splash when he wins the High Roller match, setting himself up to become the next World Heavyweight Champion.
Pierce: You think you’ve prepared him for this?
Hastings: Look at my track record. Ezekiel Pax was a worthless stoner with delusions of being a fallen angel, if you can believe that, and whatever other nonsense he had going on, and when he became associated with the Dungeon he became relevant and legitimate for the first time, and what did he get then? The World Heavyweight Title. BOOM.
Pierce: I...did you just say boom?
Hastings: BOOM!
Pierce: Right. I don’t know where to go from here.
Hastings: Shill the event and sign off, I’m leaving anyway.
Pierce: Don’t miss Sin City this Monday night, and we’ll catch you all on the flip side, and remember! It’s not my fault that the truth...hurts.
”You Know My Name” plays again as we fade out…
