Fade into the backstage are of End of Days: Forces of Nature in the medical area. Current XHF Junior Heavyweight Champion, Daigo Arakawa, is currently receiving treatment for what were thankfully only minor first degree burns on his back following his and Sam Saywer's crash through the hot chocolate table that left both of them in a world of pain. The rest of The Harbingers are gathered inside the room with Hunter Storms keeping watch over the door while Kingsley Solomon and Raiden Ishimori stand on opposite sides of the medical table as the personnel are still working on trying to soothe the pain from the damage inflicted.
Raiden: "Dear lord, Daigo..."
Kingsley: "Now now Raiden, don't give him too much of an earful. Daigo did what needed to be done in order to retain the title for not only us, but also for the whole of SCCW. Every reward has a risk attached to it after all."
Daigo manages a bit of laughter though it quickly turns into a grunt out of pain as the pain jolts through his body.
Raiden: "Still...while I'm all for by whatever means necessary, it was still reckless."
Daigo: "It was worth it. Now we have the title for another month!"
Raiden raises a hand to his face, sighing for a moment but shakes his head as he pulls it away.
Raiden: "Anyway, since we're all gathered here, though I wish this was something that could've been talked about on the plane ride back, now is a better time than never considering Daigo would've been popping the champagne bottles that moment we got back."
Daigo: "No I wouldn't h-"
Storms: "Yes you would."
Daigo: "Alright fine. Maybe just two bottles this time instead of six."
Kingsley stifles a chuckle, arms folding across his chest as he looks over to Raiden.
Kingsley: "And what exactly is the matter you wish to discuss?"
Raiden: "I want Daigo and I to go after the Global Tag Team Championship."
Storms raises a brow at the notion, Kingsley blinks a few times in silence as he processes the declaration though another chuckle slips past him.
Kingsley: "Well who are we to stop you two? You've more than proven yourselves capable in SCCW with your current reign so you don't need my blessing to pursue them."
Daigo: "I've been wanting another crack at Death Trap ever since the 2020 Gold Rush. Taking those titles from him and his Mistress will be a worthwhile endeavor."
Raiden (sighing): "Daigo, her name is Mistress Discipline. She's not actually his-"
Daigo: "She sure seems like it if I'm being honest."
Raiden shakes his head, garnering another laugh from Daigo. Kingsley turns to Storms who pushes off his post on the wall, gaze expectant.
Kingsley: "Get word to the higher-ups that our boys are cashing in a shot. The Sons of Loki are looking to be next in line to topple Top of the Class."
Storms gives an affirming nod before taking his leave from the medical room, heavy footfalls gradually becoming more faint. Kingsley turns his attention back to the Sons, laughing at the ongoing banter between the two that continues to leave Raiden shaking his head.
