... jOlt ...





Shayne Anderson stood in front of a backdrop that had The Hype logo embroidered onto it. There was a podium with a microphone in front of him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen... my name is Shayne Anderson and I am the General Manager for The Hype. I wish to make an announcement to the entire world that comes in two parts. The first part will be here, tonight, on Countdown." Anderson grinned and then cleared his throat.

"The time has come for a revolution within jOlt. Over a year ago, I tried to change jOlt in a negative way. My belief that talent are nothing more than brands with expiration dates blinded lead me down the wrong path. I know that now. However, I have grown and I have matured and instead of rotating out talent and deeming them useless, I wish to nurture the talent that we have and showcase them in a way that has never been done before here in jOlt." Anderson smiled.

"That is why I am here to announce that I am the one behind the cryptic graphics that you saw on Sunday Night iNtense as well as right here on Countdown. I will not say any more than that at this time, but if the graphics tell you anything.. it's that The World Truly is Not Ready for the things to come." Anderson paused.

"The second part of my announcement will come on The Hype on July 24th.. the first Hype after Rise of the Legends. I trust you will all be tuning in for that. Thank you for your attention." With that, Anderson stepped away from the podium and walked off screen.
