Description
Earth is nothing more than a charred husk. But it lives on through the broadcast airwaves that ripple through space. The beings on the small group of planets that form Sianard have modelled their lives on the Earthlings since the first transmissions arrived 60 cycles ago.
Those transmissions showcase the once-blue planet's politics, comedy, music, nature, destruction and construction, sporting competition, a thirst for knowledge, and an unconscious desire to dumb down. And violence. Lots of violence. Sometimes it was a work of fiction: choreographed for maximum effect in action movies or cheesy as hell in a soap opera. More often than not, it was real. News bulletins highlighting senseless wars and crimes; documentaries examining the vicious nature of humanity.And then there was professional wrestling, which some Sianardians had initially pondered might be an elaborate work of fiction, given the high drama and preposterous situations the competitors often found themselves embroiled in. After some debate, though, it was determined that professional wrestling was, in fact, real.
Earth's demise is known only by the most powerful figures in the galaxy. If things don't change, the people of Sianard will face the same fate. Armed with this knowledge, it's up to Hip Harrison, The Bearded Brute, to battle his way through a tournament comprising the biggest and baddest wrestlers the Galactic Wrestling Federation has to offer, to become the Heavyweight Champion of the Galaxy and have his voice heard against the wishes of his boss - the tyrannical chairman, Mr Montgomery.
