Brief History: There isn’t much known about Stan Rogers. His story is always changing. Even his wife (eighth wife, to be more precise) doesn’t know his exact age. Some say he is just a wrestler who loves old school wrestling having some fun. Others say that Stan Rogers is the result of a nasty, mind-altering bump. But all available evidence points to Stan Rogers being the real deal – a wrestling veteran with a century-spanning career. Who has good skin.

Sample RP

Stan Rogers is surrounded by a bevy of attractive females in a locker room, coming to the end of telling a story. His gruff voice and demeanour is in direct contrast to the pretty, feminine nature of the ladies he is entertaining.

Rogers: ... and people may tell you otherwise, but that was a shoot.

The ladies giggle and look impressed.

Todd Grisham: Stan, have you got time to talk?

Rogers: That’s Mr. Rogers to you, son.

A frightened look comes across the face of the interviewer. Grisham looks like a deer trapped in the headlights of old school fury.

Rogers: Nah, I’m just messing with you, son. Ladies, I’ll see you later.

The ladies leave the locker room, giggling as they walk through the door.

Rogers: Shoot.

Grisham is part confused by the scenario he walked in on, part by the attractiveness of the now departed females and part by the previous jesting by Rogers at his expense. Trying to collect his thoughts, he begins.

Grisham: Stan, tonight you’re facing one of this promotion’s hottest young stars in the form of Ted DiBiase. How are you feeling heading into you’re match?

Rogers: Ted DiBiase? Ted DiBiase, Ted DiBiase... The name sounds familiar. Did I wrestle his father? Hmm... did I wrestle his father? YES! Yes, I did. “Iron” Mike DiBiase. Good kid. Mean right hook on him, even from an early age. As for your question, I’m feeling good. I’m feeling confident.

Grisham is both confused and in awe. To the point where he can’t even muster the words to set Rogers straight on the lineage of the DiBiase family.

Grisham: Um, great. So how are you going to go about beating DiBiase?

Rogers: Abdominal stretch, probably. I don’t know, we haven’t booked it yet.

Grisham: Erm, Stan, we are filming this.

Rogers: What?

Grisham: We’re filming this interview. Look, there’s the camera.

Rogers notices the camera being operated next to Grisham. His eyes suddenly widen. He realises what he’s done.

Rogers: Crap! Go again, GO AGAIN!

Grisham is once again startled during the interview. However, the consummate professional that he is, he goes again.

Grisham: Um, so... erm, h-how are you going to beat DiBiase?

Rogers: How am I going to beat him? HOW AM I GOING TO BEAT HIM?! I’M GONNA STRETCH THAT DADDY’S BOY OUT! I’M GONNA MAKE THAT PUNK SCREAM OUT IN PAIN AND SHOW HIM WHO’S BOSS! I’M A GONNA THROW HIM AROUND THE RING AND MAKE HIM TAP OUT! THAT’S HOW I’M GOING TO BEAT HIM!

Rogers storms out, pushing over a table as he leaves the locker room. Grisham turns to the camera.

Grisham: Well, “Strongman” Stan Rogers is clearly pumped up for his match against Ted DiBiase. Keep on watching to see-

Rogers comes back into the frame.

Rogers: So how was that, son?

Grisham: Um, we’re still on air.

Rogers looks into the camera again.

Rogers: Ah, crap!
