Far, far away, in the deep depths of space. In the year 2020. On the planet Uranage, sat a man. A man who had the appearance of the average human being. Instead bearing purple skin and long silver hair. White and gold robes covered his body. An alien you might call him, but just a man to him and his people. Call him, Bruel. Bruel was the leader of a large colony of people like him, and a powerful being as well. Being able to manipulate time and space itself. Coming from an ancestry of gods gave him this power, which helped govern his people. He sat on a balcony, staring out the window into Uranage's mild yellow sky.
"Dad?"
The bedroom door opened up. A young boy steps inside. A spitting image of Bruel, except with a mohawk. His name, was Helmsley.
"Dad are you busy?"
"No my son, what can I do for you?"
Helmsley sprinted over, tripping upon reaching the balcony. Bruel chuckled as his son dusted off.
"What are you getting me for my birthday tomorrow?"
"Not telling."
"Why?"
"Because you can wait until tomorrow. It's a big day. You're finally turning 13 years. You're officially becoming a man."
He patted young Helmsley's head. Helmsley jumps up, placing a weak sleeper hold on Bruel.
"Tap, tap!"
Bruel stood up with ease as Helmsley dangled, then fell.
"Enough games son. Lets hurry up and finish watching Smackdown."
Both of them walk to the lounge area downstairs. Bruel's wife and brother there. Stella and Mazi. Mazi wore black and gold robes, contrasting his brother's family. A large projection on the wall shows Roman Reigns vs Baron Corbin. Reigns hits a Superman punch on Corbin, causing Helmsley to jump for joy.
"BOOM! You see that dad? Roman Reigns is gonna win!"
"He's a BUM!" Shouted Mazi. "That pretty boy wouldn't last 5 minutes against my man Stone Cold."
"Yes he would!" Helmsley retorted. "Roman Reigns already beat Triple H and the Undertaker."
Mazi unleashed a huge belly laugh. He was chubbier and older than Bruel, so his laugh carried a lot of bass.
"Of course he did, they're ancient. Roman couldn't lace young Triple H's boots."
"Yes he could. Roman would get Seth Rollins and they would beat up all those old bums. Tell him dad!"
"I don't know son. The Undertaker was amazing. Not many could go toe to toe with him back in the day."
Roman pins Corbin for the three as Smackdown goes off the air. Stella tells Helmsley its time for bed.
"Already?"
"Yes. You have a big day planned tomorrow. Go on now."
"Aw come on. I'm going to be a teenager. Only little kids go to bed early."
Bruel sneaks up behind Helmsley, poking the back of his head, knocking him out.
"Was that really necessary?" Stella asked.
"No, but it'll speed things up."
He picked up Helmsley and laid him on the sofa. Mazi stretched as he smiled down at his nephew.
"Kids gonna lose his shit when he sees what we got planned."
"Shhh. Keep quiet around Helmsley." Said Stella. "He's good at picking up sounds in his sleep. He told me yesterday about who he heard in the kitchen eating my sweet cakes. Mazi..."
Mazi smiled as he grabbed Bruel and hastily made an exit. They head outside to the garden area, where there was a large, circular pond. Mazi stood back as Bruel raised his hand. The pond's water started glowing, bubbling fiercely. Bruel focused as magic energy emerged from his body. Mazi stared down, as objects begin floating towards the top of the water. Multiple objects. All of which soon busted out of the water.
Daniel Bryan sat up in a panic, looking around. He was in his ring gear. Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns emerge from the water, also in ring gear. Joining them was AJ Styles and Drew McIntyre, who were in casual clothing. Everyone was soaked and confused.
"What the hell just happened?" Asked Seth.
"I don't know." Said AJ, wiping his face. "But we sure as hell not home."
The wrestlers all turn their attention to the two purple people, who both give a friendly wave. Time seems to stand still for a moment. No one moves a muscle.
"Welcome to our planet friends. We're what you people call 'aliens' on Earth." Said Bruel.
Drew who had the same dumbfounded facial expression this entire time, tapped AJ on the back.
"You slip something in my beer man?"
AJ shook his head no.
"Okay then." Drew sat still until it finally hit him. "THIS IS REAL!"
All five of them scrambled out the pond, screaming for dear life. Bruel snapped his fingers, taking away all of their voices.
"Would you please stop yelling? My son is sleeping."
"I told you these guys were wimps."
"No need to insult our guests, brother."
"All I'm saying is that the Mankind wouldn't be crying like a sissy."
"Oh really? Would you like to make a wager?"
Bruel and Mazi went back and forth as the guys looked on. They stared at each other, with no idea what to do. There was nowhere to run.
"Fine, stand back."
Mazi politely backed off as Bruel raised his hands again. The water started to bubble once again. More people started rising from the pond. To the surprise of everyone except Mazi and Bruel, five more wrestlers emerged. Stone Cold, The Rock, Triple H, Undertaker and Mankind. All in wrestling gear. Seth jumped around. Pointing and trying to scream at the disbelief they were all seeing.
"What in the hell?" Shouted Austin.
Taker pulled his hair back, trying to wring it dry. Triple H got up, fists at the ready. The Attitude wrestlers all grouped together. Caught in between two weird looking strangers and men dressed like them.
"The Rock would like to know where the hell we are!"
"Well Rock, it looks like we're on an inter dimensional planet." Replied Foley. "This is something MY mind can't even comprehend."
"Relax gentleman. My name is Bruel, and I-"
"Now wait a damn minute. Who are you, and who are they."
"I was getting to that before you interrupted me. My name is Bruel. I'm what you might call an 'alien' back on your home planet. I brought you five here back from the year 2000."
Silence came over the garden again. A few whispers can be heard between Taker and Rock. Rock to Austin. Austin steps forward.
"Alright, Stone Cold will play your little game. As I was saying before. if you're an alien, then who the hell are those guys?"
"Those are wrestlers from this year, 2020. Two decades from where you guys are."
"So we're in outer space, in the future?"
"Yes."
"Just making sure."
Austin leapt forward to throw a punch. Bruel zaps Austin with a laser beam, turning him into a turkey sandwich. Everyone gasped in shock. Seth going bug eyed. Roman waved his arms in the air, trying to get the attention of Bruel. Once he does, Roman points to his mouth. Bruel snapped his fingers, restoring their voices.
"Please, no screaming."
"As long as we don't turn into deli platters, not a problem. But I have to ask, why are we here."
"I can explain inside where its warm. Follow me."
"HEY, HEY, HEY!" Shouted Taker. "What about Steve?"
"Oh yes, almost forgot."
He chuckled softly as he zapped the sandwich, turning it back to Austin. Bruel continued on as they helped up Austin. The group headed down a large hallway, heading towards a door. Bruel opened the door, which brought them into an empty room. Bruel used his power to make chairs appear. Also making a table with cut veggies and water for snacking.
"The Rock has officially entered the Twilight Zone. One of you jabronis slap me just to make sure."
"Everyone, please have a seat."
Bruel went front and center as chairs were filled. Mazi went straight for the food.
"I really can't believe it. Stone Cold in his prime!" Seth gushed.
"In my prime? So you are from the future?"
"Yep."
"Then what happens to us in said future?" Asked Rock.
"Well Rock, you become America's biggest movie star." Said Drew. "Austin is retired. Hunter, you're basically under Vince to take over WWE one day."
"Wait, how the hell does that last one happen?" Questioned Mankind.
"He started banging Stephanie." AJ blurted out.
All eyes turned towards Hunter, who at this time was still wrestling with Chyna by his side.
"Don't make this about me." Hunter quickly retorted. "Listen to the alien with the freaky powers."
"Hold on. The real story here is that The Rock becomes a millionaire movie star."
"Yeah, too bad most of those movies suck." Joked Drew.
"Look here jabroni, the only thing that sucks is your wrestling ability."
"You wanna go Hollywood?"
Drew and Rock step to each other as everyone starts arguing. Bruel rubbed his head in frustration. Mazi sat out the way, chomping on carrot sticks. With a wave of the hand, Bruel adjusts the gravity and sends the wrestlers crashing into the floor.
"Now unless you want every bone and organ flattened into mush, you will keep quiet until I'm done speaking!"
Another wave and gravity is restored. Through the moans and groans, everybody gets up and sits down.
"Thank you. Now, I originally brought the five of you here for my son Helmsley's birthday."
Hunter carefully raised his hand.
"If you're going to ask, yes, I did name my child after you."
Hunter nodded and gave two thumbs up.
"Continuing on, I originally wanted Roman and Seth to perform for my son. My brother Mazi is a really big fan of the Attitude Era wrestlers. So we made a wager. Five on five, Survivor Series style elimination match."
Daniel raised his hand.
"Yes Mr. Bryan?"
"Listen, I think it's really sweet you want to do this for Helmsley, but we have families too. They're gonna be worried sick with us being gone."
"Not a problem at all. If you didn't realize, I'm able to manipulate time. Hence why I was able to bring the likes of Mankind and Rock here. When all of you are sent home, it'll be in the exact moment where I took you."
"This is giving me a damn headache. I need a beer." Said Austin.
Bruel snapped his fingers, phasing a canned beer into Austin's hand. Austin toasted Bruel before guzzling his drink.
"Gentleman, I am not here to do harm. In fact, me and my family are big fans of you. All I want is a match to tear the house down."
"I've seen a lot of crap in my day, but without a doubt, being abducted by aliens is one I NEVER SAW COMING!" Shouted Mankind.
Taker covered up Mankind's mouth, telling him to keep it quiet.
"So when is this match happening?" Asked Roman.
"Tomorrow morning. I'll have gear ready for all of you to go."
"I'm gonna have a hard time sleeping with all of this shit on my mind." Said AJ.
"Not a problem." Bruel told them.
A flick of the wrist and everyone is instantly knocked out. Mazi burps and smirks.
"Well little brother, I feel bad for you. Once team Attitude wipes the floor with these posers, I'll be ruler of the planet."
"In due time Mazi. For now, please help me move our guests to the spare rooms."
The following morning, Roman opens his eyes. Sitting up to find himself laying in a cot. All of his friends were already awake, getting ready for the match.
"Sleeping Beauty is finally up." Joked Seth.
The boys laugh as Roman wipes away some drool.
"Man, I had the craziest dream last night."
"We all got abducted by aliens who are forcing us to wrestle people from the year 2000?" Said Daniel. "No that really happened."
Roman looked out a window to see the unfamiliar colony. Oddly shaped buildings no taller than four stories. Bruel's homestead sat on a large hill of land, being able to oversee the whole town from anywhere on his property. Thousands of citizens were all headed to the coliseum for a match the galaxy can't even contain.
"Damn. I was hoping that was a dream."
Seth threw a suitcase at Roman.
"It's not. Now get suited up. We're on in 15 minutes."
The Modern Era was dressed in their regular gear, with a white and gold color scheme to match Bruel. Roman opened the case and pulled out his vest. All white with his gold insignia glowing like the sun. Roman sighed as he undid his straps.
Across the hall, Team Attitude Era were all ready to fight, just conversing amongst themselves to kill time. They donned a black and gold scheme to match Mazi. Taker was in deep thought, rubbing his chin.
"Hey dead man, think to hard over there and you'll die before the match."
"Shut up Hunter, I've been thinking about something. What those guys said about us in the future. You think it's true?"
"For The Rock's sake I hope it is."
"Rocky for god sakes stop talking in third person. It's FREAKING ANNOYING."
"How about Mankind shuts up before The Rock slaps the taste of out his mouth!"
"Enough!" Yelled Austin. "We can argue about any petty bullshit going on later. Right now, we got a match to win. If these kids are from the future, then we need to show them what attitude is all about! Cause Stone Cold aint getting turned into another sandwich!"
All five cheer in agreement. The other five put their hands together for a shield style fist bump. The room doors open and they all step out to find Bruel and Helmsley standing there. Helmsley wearing a Roman Reigns shirt over his robe.
"WOOOOOW! You guys are here, I can't believe it!"
The young boys excitement was enough to put a smile on everyone's faces. The next few minutes are spent taking pictures and doing autographs in Helmsley's notebook. Roman kneels down next to Helmsley.
"Your dad really loves you. I'm still amazed by what he did for you. We promise to make it a great experience."
"Speak for yourself." Muttered Hunter, prompting an elbow to the ribs by Taker.
Roman opens up Helmsley's hand, placing a pendant inside. Helmsley gazed into Roman's eyes. He broke into tears and hugged Roman. Even with no idea on what was happening, Roman felt as great as ever.
"Well Helmsley, I hope this was enough." Said Bruel.
"Of course it was dad. This was so awesome. Good luck everyone."
Bruel kicked one foot forward, teleporting the wrestlers to a mock backstage area. Mazi was there waiting by the curtain.
"Good morning. You guys ready to rumble?"
He opened the curtain, showing the massive crowd. A Wrestlemania-esque arena with a ring in the center. Thunderous cheers as a Uranage native stepped into the ring with a microphone.
"GOOD MORNING URANAGE! I THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING OUT TO THE LOONAN COLLISEUM! ARE YOU READY!"
Cheers got louder, rocking the arena. Bruel and his family sat front row in special seats. Helmsley was jumping like a kangaroo with excitement.
"I SAID, ARE YOU READY!"
"That dickhead is stealing my catchphrase!"
"Would you shut UP!" Yelled Taker.
"Real quick, both teams are making a group entrance." Said Mazi.
"Alright, but play MY theme song." Drew demanded.
"Screw you, we're playing my song!" Shouted Daniel.
The Modern Era starts arguing amongst each other. Mazi has a hearty laugh, feeling like this one is in the bag.
"THE FOLLOWING CONTEST, IS A FIVE ON FIVE, NO-DQ ELIMINATION MATCH! ONE MEMBER FROM EACH TEAM WILL START THE MATCH. WHEN SOMEONE IS PINNED, TAPS OUT, OR CAN NO LONGER CONTINUE, THEY WILL BE ELIMINATED! WHICHEVER TEAM ELIMINATES THE OTHER FIRST, WILL BE THE WINNER."
Everyone is still aruguing as Roman's music hits. Roman smirks as he walks through the curtain. The other four follow.
"MAKING THIER WAY TO THE RING. THE TEAM OF ROMAN REIGNS, DREW MCINTYRE, SETH ROLLINS, DANIEL BRYAN AND THE PHENOMONAL, A...J...STYLES. THE MODERN ERA!"
They hit the ring. All of thier gear shining bright, looking like high knights of a counsel. AJ does his hand pose to the crowd while everyone else poses on the turnbuckles. It was incredible. Uranage may be an alien planet, but they were fans, just like any human is.
Glass shatters and the crowd goes into second gear. To the point where they almost drowned out the microphone.
"AND THE CHALLENGERS. THE TEAM OF MANKIND, THE GAME HHH, THE ROCK, STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN, AND THE UUUUUNNNNDEERRRRTAKEEEERRRRRR!"
Austin rolls into the ring with no fear. Walking straight past the enemy team to do his turnbuckle pose. He flips them off before going the next one. Hunter sets up on the ropes with a sip of water. The Rock readies himself on the turnbuckle, next to Hunter. Austin goes to the last turnbuckle, opposite of Rock. Taker and Mankind throw up fists behind Hunter as he spits his mist. Ausint and Rock soaking in the crowd. The black and gold gave a badass touch.
The music died down and both teams stared at each other. Roman motioned his guys forward. Austin did the same, bringing both teams face to face. Drew and Taker. Mankind and Daniel. AJ and Hunter. Seth and Rock. Roman and Austin. The crowd continued for a full ten minutes of non stop cheering. The referee, Noop, gets in the ring, backing everyone to the corner. Eight guys hop on the apron. Daniel and Rock are left in the ring. Daniel takes his stance. Rock, hands on his knees, focused on the man in front of him. Noop checked with each man. With both ready to go, Noop rings the bell.
