The sun shines bright on a typical Monday morning. It's another school day for the kids at Vincent J McMahon High School but for one new transfer, it's a whole new day. With the morning bell sounding off the kids all rush into the school trying to make it to class on time. However, there was one student left standing outside in front of the school. His eye was stargazed on the incredible structure that is VJM High. This student's name is Finn Balor, who recently transferred from a school in Japan. Finn slowly made his way into the school mesmerized by its size. Finn walks into the halls as students rush in as the final bell sounds. Finn is now alone in the hallway as he searches for the main office until he finally comes across it. Finn shook his head and took a deep breath.
"Ok. Here we go." Finn said as he goes to open the door but the door swings open as a student got sent flying out of it and Finn was able to move out of the way on a count of his reflexes. Finn looked stunned as the student ended up crashing against the lockers. Storming out of the office was Coach Jeff Jarrett. Jarrett goes to the student who got thrown out of the office up by his shirt collar.
"Now you listen to me, son. I don't have any idea what they taught you down there in Helmsley middle, but up here in VJM we do things a whole of a lot different. So, if I was you I'd get my attitude set. You hear me, Corbin?" Jarrett yelled out.
"Fine. Whatever. Just let me go." Baron Corbin replied as Jarrett lets go of his grip of him.
"We'll see about that afterschool because your ass got detention!" Jeff Jarrett remarked.
"Detention?! What? Dude, that's some bull-"
"Son, if you say another word I'll throw on top of that detention with an ass whoopin." Jarrett angrily replied pointing his finger in Corbin's face.
Baron Corbin adjusts his school uniform glaring at Coach Jarrett just before he storms off. Jarrett turns to see Finn Balor standing there looking on.
"Shouldn't you be in class by now, boy?
"Uhh I'm new here." Finn nervously stated.
"What's your name, slapnuts?" Jarrett asked.
"My name is Finn," Balor told Jarrett as he presented him with a piece of paper. Jarrett looks over the paper raising an eyebrow as he looks back at Finn.
"Wait here.' Jarrett told Balor as he went back into the office slamming the door shut behind him. Moments later Coach Jarrett sticks his head out the door. "Alright you're in Class J. I already informed Mr. Snow you're on your way so get your ass movin!" Jarrett said as he slams the door.
"Wait, how do I get there?" Finn asked hopelessly. Finn sighed as he wipes his uniform off and grabs his book bag roaming the halls. Finn goes to each class door one by one to find Class J. As Finn Balor turns at a corner in the hallway he bumps into someone running in the hall. Books and paper scattered all over the floor as a skittish student hurries to grab all her school work.
"Oh my god! I'm so sorry! I-" The student paused as she gazes upon Finn, who helps her gather up her stuff.
"No, it's alright. I wasn't really paying any attention myself." Finn said with a chuckle. "Are you ok?"
The student seemed space out just staring at Finn until she shook her head and responded. "Oh…. Um… Yes I'm ok. Thank you. But no it's my fault really. I was finishing up some student body council work and lost track of time. I'm usually more prepared and here I am rushing to get to class. You must be new here cause I've never seen you before" The student said with a soft voice.
"Yeah, I am. The name's Finn." Balor said as he smiles at the student.
"Finn? I'm Bayley." Bayley said as she put her hand out shaking hands with Finn Balor smiling and blushing to no end.
"Well, Bayley, it'd been nice to meet you under better circumstances," Finn stated as he notices Bayley still has a grip on his hand. "You must really like to shake hands."
Bayley realizes she still holding Finn's hand, pulls her hand back and looks away embarrassingly. "Oh my! I'm so sorry!" Bayley nervously said.
"No need to apologize," Finn said.
"Actually, I' much more of a hugger," Bayley said as she turns back to look at Finn. Bayley looked at Finn and seemed lost in his eyes up giggling a bit. Bayley glances at her watch and freaks out. "Oh my God! I'm super late now! Well, I better get going. It was nice talking to you, Finn." She stated.
"Wait, before you run off. Can you tell me where to find Class J?" Finn asked.
"Class J? You're in Class J? Whoa! You don't look like it." Bayley said intrigued.
"What's that suppose to mean?" Finn asked curiously.
"I wish I could explain, but I have to run. Class J is on the bottom floor. You just take those stairs there down and once you enter the door, it'll be the first door on your right. I gotta go. Bye!" Bayley said as she ran off in a hurry.
Finn watches Bayley run for her life and couldn't help but to smile. Finn stood up and went the directions Bayley gave him. As Finn walks through the door he notices the differences between the middle floor and the bottom floor. While the middle floor looked like a moderately average high school, the bottom floor was the complete opposite, Graffiti on the lockers, wallpaper dangling off, and the lights twitching. Finn had a look of confusion as he wasn't sure he was in the right place. Finn looked to his right and behold was Class J's room. Finn went and knocked on the door and answering it was Mr. Snow, Class J homeroom teacher.
"Can I help you? Oh, you must be the new student I was told of. Come on in pal!" Mr. Snow replied as he opens the door wide.
Finn walks in and notices what could be called a classroom of misfits in a rundown room. Finn stood in front of the class as Mr. Snow tries to gather their attention. "Class, we have a new student. Son, why don't you introduce yourself?" Mr. Snow said as he pushes Finn towards the class.
"Uh hi everyone, My name is Finn Balor. I transferred here out of Antonio Inoki Academy High in Japan. I'm so new here to the states and I'm hoping !" Finn said as he nervously stood in front of the class who gave him zero reaction.
"Alrighty there Finn why don't you take a seat next to Zack in the back?" Mr. Snow suggested as he went up to the chalkboard.
Finn walks straight to the back and looked all around the classroom. For Finn, this was beyond a culture shock. Finn truly thinks he doesn't belong in this class and that this is some sort of mistake. Finn took a seat in a barely put together desk.
"Bro! Hey bro?" Finn looks over to his right and sees Zack Ryder trying to get his attention.
"Hey man" Finn replied.
"Bro, let me be the first to welcome you to Class J. I know it may seem a bit wild chaotic, but it's not too shabby. Sure, a lot of us wish we were higher up with everyone else and put in a better surrounding, but as time goes on you get used to it. Say bro, how bout a selfie for my Instagram?" Zack asked but still took the selfie catching Finn off guard. Zack thumbs through his phone with a big smirk on his face.
"Don't mind him, dude he's a social media nut. He's not wrong about the place though. At first it may seem like too much, but it starts to grow on you. I'm Apollo Crews." Apollo said as he spoke to Finn.
"I'm curious about the grading system. Back in Japan, it was Class S all the way to Class F, but here it's different." Finn said.
"Well, here in Vincent J McMahon everything is different if you come from anywhere else. You got Class ME, the top class which is considered the best of the best in this school. After them, you got Class UC which is like a close second place but doesn't have all the benefits that Class ME has. Then there is Class M which is just basically the average class. They're not at the top nor they're really at the bottom. Then you have us, Class J. Unfortunately, they think of us as the worst of the worst. We have no potential and have to make work of what we got." Apollo said informing Finn.
"Well, by going by your logic then I should be in Class ME, if not that then at least Class UC. I mean I gotta pretty solid GPA on my transcript and I was the top in athletics." Finn told Apollo.
Apollo chuckles shaking his head "Nah man it's like I said before. Wherever you came from it's different here. Academics and athletics don't carry the same amount of weight. Basically, Class ME and Class UC are pretty much given for those with the right status or they have what Principal McMahon said the "It" factor. Or at least close to it" Apollo told Finn.
"The "It" factor?" Finn asked frowning up thinking long and hard about it. "So, what does Class J stand for? I have a pretty good idea on what Class ME, UC, and M stand for, but I've never heard of J."
"The J stands for jobber." Apollo stated.
"Jobber?" Finn asked a bit annoyed.
"Yeah, bro. Jobber! Jabronis! We're basically a stepping stone for the other kids! We basically make everyone else look good. We may get our moments here and there, but it's usually because the upper classes are bored and want to give us false hope. It really sucks as I wish I could just put them in their place just one time, man."
"I can't believe this! This has got to be some sort of mistake!" Finn said to himself as he buried his face into his hands.
Across the room sitting in the front, Alicia Fox couldn't help but stare back at Finn. Fox's sized up Finn licking her lips at her classmate.
"Finn! It appears God has brought us together. You don't know that yet but soon you will. Our love will be incredibly strong and fierce." Fox says in her mind as she twirls a pencil in her hand. "However, there'll be heathens that'll try and ruin our special thing. I swear on everything that I love I will kill any bitch that dares try to steal you away from me!" Said Alicia's thoughts as she snaps the pencil in half! Alicia expresses a crazed look in her eyes, ogling at Finn.
