*after the show*

Parker Bennett, Anne Winters, and Riley Keller are seen sitting at their chairs, dressed in normal clothes, talking about tonight's show. Daikon is seen being praised by nearly everyone backstage, because of his return to the Wrestling World after half a decade away.

Anne: So tonight was something. Getting to join you guys and be led by Daikon Black. Pretty strange if you ask me.

Parker: I think it's awesome. I had experience with Daikon in my days at ROH, and he's someone that can just command the locker room.

Riley: From the stories I heard, you have a point. I also heard he even got AEW set on straight earlier in the CM Punk debacle.

Parker: Yeah. And no one tried to argue because he has a reputation that even the more assholish guys backstage can shut up.

Anne: I mean, what do you expect from a guy who helps the IWGP, ROH, and NWA World Titles at the same time? For him to do that, he has to have the most fearsome presence.

The door opens and they turn to see Daikon entering the room.

Daikon: Hello you three children.

Riley: Dude, we're like in our mid-20s.

Anne: And I'm close to your age.

Daikon: Relax. I'm just kidding. Anyway, I just got out of talking to several people, mostly Triple H, and tonight was great. So...who wants to go have fun at the bar?

Parker: Oh Hell Yeah!

Anne: I'm in!

Riley: Me too!

Daikon: Alright. Let's go to the nearest bar and have a great time.

The three cheered as they all left the room.

*At the Bar*

We see the three hanging out at the bar as Anne goes around, partying with other ladies as Riley and Parker talk with some friends. We see Daikon sitting nearby, watching them have fun as he smiles. He takes a sip of a non-alcoholic beer as he thinks about something.

?: Hey, man.

Daikon was snapped out of his train of thought as he turns to a good friend of his.

Daikon: Well, if it ain't the Tribal Chief

Daikon: Well, if it ain't the Tribal Chief.

Joe chuckles as he and Daikon shook hands and hugged. Both men became best friends back in 2013 and their bond was so close that even Roman's daughter refers to Daikon as her uncle.

Joe: You didn't tell you you were coming back.

Daikon: I wanted it to be a surprise. And the vignettes shown weeks ago didn't show our faces, so it helped add the mystery and eventual shock.
