A Manhattan Project - (An Introduction to a possible relaunch of The LXG)
Chapter - 1 of 4 - A Room With Many Views:
(The scene is a somewhat dimly lit room...in a building on West 42nd Street and 8th Avenue in Manhattan...one person is speaking to about a dozen people seated in the room...the person sits indian style...on top of an old beat up desk...identifies himself as an alcoholic...is greeted warmly by the people there...and begins to share his story...):
Sky Low Low - I used to be the...co-owner of wrestling promotion that was...not only an Earth bound one...but one that also involved...independent and even galactic wrestlers...special interest groups and governments...this fed started out...in Brooklyn...and then wound up on the Moon...at the now abandoned...City of Fight...and with that...came a whole lotta trouble...and a whole lotta of...unhealthy indulgences...
(At this point...another person slinks most quietly into the room...and takes a seat...in the back row...):
Sky Low Low - When you're predisposed to rationalizing away...or rationalizing a way around...civility...morals...ethics...adultery...and humility...you're in trouble...I was way too easily swayed by and embraced alcohol...I even rationalized it's corruption...and...hold over me...but the bottom line is...I had...to crash and burn...in order to finally understand...and begin to accept reality...not on my terms...but on realities terms...for all of you first comers...and folks in early recovery...hitting the bottom may very well be necessary...but it's not...the end...actually...it's only the beginning...and always remember...you are not alone...just keep coming...and take things...one breath at a time...
(After Sky ends his story...the people clap...however most have confused looks on their faces...and two of the clappers start to nervously laugh...):
(After the meeting ends and most of the people have left...the person who had silently entered the room...slowly approaches Sky Low Low and says...):
Little Beaver - Sky?...
Sky Low Low - Hello...brother...I didn't know you were here...
Little Beaver - I know...it's been a while...but...can I buy you a cup of coffee?...
Sky Low Low - Ahh...yeah ok...coffee has become a food group for me now...I know...we haven't talked in a while...
Little Beaver - Ahh...quick thing...I couldn't see you as you were talking...but I heard what you said...and I'm...proud of you...
Sky Low Low (with tears starting to fill his eyes) - Thanks Beav...
Little Beaver - I wanted to...ask you're opinion on something...
Sky Low Low - Yeah...ok...
Little Beaver - And...about what you ended you're talk with...did you mean to say to, "Take things...one breath...at a time"...
Sky Low Low - Yeah...what?...I didn't say that?...
Little Beaver - No...
Sky Low Low - What'd I say?...
Little Beaver - Take things One...Breast...at a time...
Sky Low Low (with eyes closed and as he exhales) - Shhhit...it's going to be...a long...road...
Little Beaver - Well...look at it this way Sky...now...you're on...that road...
(As they leave the building...Sky and Beav head towards a Starbucks down the block...to continue their conversation...)
To Be Continued!...

A Manhattan Project - (An Introduction to a possible relaunch of The LXG)
Chapter - 2 of 4 - The Elixir of Life
(The scene is a small...but cozy Starbuck's on 8th avenue...Sky and Beav are sitting in Sky's favorite corner booth...secluded and quiet...Beav is drinking a caramel frappuccino...and Sky has a cup of his usual...hot black and strong...)
Little Beaver (as he unwraps a small lollipop and puts it in his mouth) - I like this corner...
Sky Low Low - I dig it too...what's with the lollipop?...
Little Beaver - Trying to quit cigarettes...so...I wanted to actually ask you...a couple of questions...
Sky Low Low - I'm all ears...
Little Beaver - You've heard that...Wince McCan't has been able to relaunch his World Wide Empire right?...
Sky Low Low - Yeah...his fortress in Connecticut has been rebuilt...
Little Beaver - The WWE has been thriving...and as a result...a lot of our old wrestlers signed with them...but some...didn't...and...there's been some talk and interest amongst the New York City fans...in particular...Brooklynites...
Sky Low Low (interrupting) - God love em'...
Little Beaver - For the LXG...to return...and in not so many words...show them how it's done...
Sky Low Low (starting to get a bit anxious) - That's awesome...and you'll be great at it...but whose really...behind this?...
Little Beaver - A few investors and backers may...be interested...but technically the only one that's committed 100%...is Smallie Biggs...
Sky Low Low - Good old Smallie...is he out of jail yet?...
Little Beaver (chosing his words carefully) - One week left...so...my first question is...do you think I should do this?...
Sky Low Low - Definitely...you'd be a natural...
Little Beaver - My next question is...would you want to be...a part of it too...like the old days?...
Sky Low Low - Oh no...no..I can't...I can't...I'm...a...I can't...I'm sorry Beav...
Little Beaver (with genuine worry) - I know this is a lot...but to tell you the truth...I don't know if...I can handle this all by myself...
Sky Low Low - Well...what about?...
Little Beaver (interrupting) - No...she's gone...I haven't seen She Devil since it all...ahh...
Sky Low Low (interrupting) - Ohh...ok...right...ahh...
Little Beaver - I know that...it's early in you're sobriety...but then...I was thinking...remember what Neckless used to...always say?...
Sky Low Low (after taking a big gulp of coffee) - Crazy Only Is...As Only...Crazy...Does?...
Little Beaver - No...well yeah...but no...what I mean is...when he used to say that...Work...Is...Therapy...
Sky Low Low (with his head in his hands) - Whoah...I didn't expect this...can I...think about this...and maybe we could meet here again...tomorrow?...
Little Beaver - That sounds fair...one of our old wrestlers...is all in with this...actually...he's the only one in it so far...but he wanted me to read you a text he sent me:
Hey Sky, hope you're not mad, but Beav told me about what you're going through. It takes a helluva man to change. You got this my friend. I've already spoken with Beav and I'm totally in if he tries to bring back the LXG. If you guys give me a place to crash, I'll help out & you don't have to pay me or nothin until you can.
I hope you get involved. It's bad to just sit around and study your pain. Trust me. I tried it a million times. This way I figure we can help each other. Besides my man, the business is more cutthroat than ever. We really need you brother.
- Yukon Eric
To Be Continued!...

A Manhattan Project - (An Introduction to an...increasingly possible...relaunch of The LXG)
Part - 3 of 4 - Order...To Go?
(The scene is the small...but still cozy Starbuck's on 8th avenue...Sky Low Low is in his usual corner booth...he sits with his hands on the sides of his coffee...and is basically staring a hole through his table in thought...):
(Little Beaver now enters the shop...gets himself not one...but two cups...of black coffee...and makes his way over to Sky's booth...Beav immediately notices Sky's posture and demeanor...one that appears...anxious and apologetic...it was then...that Beav knew that he needed to brace himself...for bad or disappointing news...):
Little Beaver (trying to hide being crestfallen) - Hey Sky...how's everything?...
Sky Low Low (while still staring down at the table) - Everything's everything...
Little Beaver (after placing the two cups of coffee on the table...and reading Sky's body language) - I'm sorry Sky...I was...back and forth about even asking you...maybe we should just forget...
Sky Low Low (picks his head up and interrupts) - I'm in...
Little Beaver (tearing up a bit in joy) - Ohh...oh ok great!...
(Unbeknownst to Sky...Beav places his hand in his jacket pocket...and sends a pre typed text to someone that says...HE'S GONNA DO IT!!!!...):
Sky Low Low - But let's take this slow...ok?...or at least...I...have to...take this slow...
Little Beaver - Sky...I totally understand...we can even plan...all of this out...slowly...
(Yukon Eric...now enters the shop...and looks around quickly to find Sky and Beav still in the corner booth...):
Yukon Eric (with a genuine smile on his face) - Hey Guys!...Awesome you're back Sky!...
Sky Low Low - Hey...Yuke...I'm...sort of back...yeah...I guess...
Little Beaver (as he slowly shoves one of the two cups of coffee towards the now...seated at the table Yukon Eric) - Here you go Yuke...no sugar right?...
Yukon Eric (as Sky snorts out a small laugh) - Right...thanks Beav...
(As Beav was just about to share his thoughts...a young woman who works at Starbucks...walks up to Sky and says to him...):
Young Woman - Sky...is this a good time?...
Sky Low Low - Great...thanks Sara...are you sure it's ok?...
Sara (as Beav and Eric exchange confused glances) - Yep...Gordon gave it a total go...
Sky Low Low (while placing his hands together in a prayer like gesture) - That's awesome...you're both the best...
Sara (as he waves Sky and the others towards a storeroom at the back of the shop) - No problem...and besides...we were both fans of the LXG...
Sky Low Low (to Beav and Yuke) - Gentlemen...follow us...
(As the others followed Sky...Sky followed Sara...who led them towards a storeroom...Sara entered a four digit code on the security lock...and led the three of them into a darkened room...she turns on the lights and the three of them see shelving against the wall on the right...on the left side of the room...there is a open space with a few folding tables and chairs leaning up against the wall...Sara leaves Sky...and his confused friends...to it...Sky walks towards the tables and chairs...Yukon Eric gets the idea and insists...on setting up a rectangular table and three chairs...after they are seated...Sky looks a little lost for a bit...and then says...):
Sky Low Low (as he brushes a tear off of his cheek) - The folks here...are cool with...letting us use this room as an office.. I figured keeping our base off the grid as long as we could...would be best...
(Beav and Yuke nod in agreement and appreciation...):
Sky Low Low - Cell phones stress me out...Beav...do you have Buggy Hair and...Loophole still...on you're phone?...I think we xould start there...
To Be Continued!...🙏...

A Manhattan Project - (An Introduction to a probable relaunch of The LXG)
Chapter - 4 of 4 - A Fellowship of The Ring
(From their storeroom base...Sky Low Low, Little Beaver and Yukon Eric...put the wheels in motion...to get the LXG back in action...one sober step...at a time...):
(Little Beaver and everyone else went at Sky's pace...the process evolved into one of more honest...mutual support...than ever before...):
(The first series of meetings that Sky, Beav and Yuke had were with; LXG Legal Counsel Playboy Buddy "Loophole" Rose...and Buggy Hair...the longtime LXG man on the street...who seems to always know a tremendous amount of information...):
(In a relatively short period...the following was established...and accomplished):
▪ Loophole was able to ensure the LXG's lone financial backer to date...Smallie Biggs "The Biggest Midget In Brooklyn"s successful release from prison...
▪ Loophole was also able to square away the LXG with...the New York State athletic commission...he said that the LXG's license is contingent upon whether or not we are able to keep the competitions at least..."Somewhat under control"...as well as a 5% piece of the gate...
▪ Buggy Hair gave the following updates regarding some of the prior members of Afghanistan Bananastan:
- Endgame = Shacked up with his true love Cosmic Woman...they have conceived hundreds of silver children...and if Endgame wasn't fixed...they would have had thousands by now...they appear to have moved into a different Realm of existence...
- LXG Life Coach David Lee Roth = After a somewhat recent failed attempt to put together a tribute show honoring Eddie Van Halen...DLR was last ssen in Kyoto Japan attempting to...in his own words, "Get his heads together"...
- LXG Spiritual Advisor "Father" Don Leo Jonathan = Moved to Iraq with singer songwriter Carly Simon. As she...may or
not...be adding a new verse to "You're So Vain" about Father DLJ...he is in the midst of a somewhat stressful archaeological dig...is new assistant...a curious fellow named Pazuzu did attempt to explain that everything is fine...however his English sadly...is quite backwards...
- The Wicked Monk = He along with Wolf were part of the "alien deportation purge" that was carried out jointly by the U.N. and the U.F.S.P. The Monk was later incarcerated for resisting deportation however...he was broken out of confinement...by an unknown individual...the two are now wanted in several star systems...
- Wolf = He was the unknown individual mentioned above...
- LXG EAP and Mental Health Counselor Plethador (aka "Leckless) = Suffered profound professional burn out...tried to take a break via taking an indefinite sabbatical...and unfortunately...got incredibly lost trying to find himself...he now runs an all night bowling alley on the dark side of Pluto...
- Robert Redford = Now a retired gentlemen of leisure who has taken up a palatial residence in El Segundo California...was the last one who...tried...but was unsuccessful in persuading the only woman Sky Low Low ever loved...to maybe try couples therapy as a way of coping with Sky's one night affair with another woman...
- LXG Principal Owner She Devil = Was the only woman that Sky ever loved...She left him...ahead of the alien deportations...
- LXG Public Relations Guru Bill Murray = Whereabouts currently unknown...
- Wince McCan't = Has relaunched his World Wide Empire and has indeed..in Buggy Hairs own words, "Fallen Into Shadow"...
▪ Sky, Beav and Smallie Biggs have promised the world and signed a lease on a large former, (& high ceilinged), steakhouse on the uppermost floor of the South Street Seaport Pier in Lower Manhattan...to serve as the LXG's arena...
▪ When Yuke found out that Buggy Hair has always been heavily influenced by Tolkien...Yuke asked Beav, "Which fed does Tolkien compete for?"...
To Be Continued !...

four chapters, Bri is really working hard here. Mornin brother TTX! Back where I belong methinks and definitely a labor of love. Just about ready to post the next two lead up chapters to our first card / aka chapter 7 (for luck lol). Over the next two chapters the rosters will be revealed, the first cards' scheduled line up and the results of an on the air interview and basically simultaneous press conference. Little Beaver and Sky Low Low attempt a divide and conquer plan of self promoting The LXG. 🤞🙏 Thanks brother. Wouldn't be the same without you my friend! |
