It's a new day, or so it is for the duo of Chad Gable, and Jason Jordan. Two former friends have finally found their way back together. Having been drafted to Monday Night Raw just a week prior, everything was at stakes, but more so -- What did American Alpha have planned? Having just been confirmed that the duo would compete against the formidable team that was The New Day; Chad Gable would take matters into his own hands as we await this exclusive WWE Network exclusive video.

This is where our scene opens, in the streets of Toronto, Ontario, Canada; Gable was present in his formal attire. A small shirt representing the logo of his team. In Canada this was quite the scene. Looks of all ages were being thrown in his direction, but Gable had a purpose. Or so, that's what we were led to believe. The former Olympian had something up his sleeve as he motioned for the production crew to follow his every movement. We follow Gable into a small restaurant as he takes a seat. Unfortunately for Gable, there was no chef, waiter or waitress to welcome him. But instead of letting this minor hiccup baffle and upset Gable, he used it as fuel for even more verbal daggers as he spoke up. Targeting his foes.

CHAD GABLE
It's a new day, yes it is!

Obviously taking a nod to The New Day, Gable can't help but share a larger than life grin, giving the viewers a look that made it obvious even he knew the forth wall was being broke.

CHAD GABLE
Actually, that's what we're led to believe. But from my point of view, I think it's the same thing on repeat. But what do I know? After all, we're in Toronto. One of the biggest towns in the entire world, and in this business? Expect the unexpected. Especially when we're in Toronto. (A soft sigh radiates off Gable who eyeballs the menu alongside his table.) But our location is the least of our worries, or at least mine. This little exclusive via the WWE Network comes courtesy of American Alpha. But I must admit, as a former Olympian; I know how crucial a meal is before a match. Which is exactly why we find ourselves here tonight.

A soft chuckle comes from Gable as he taps the table respectfully, picking up the menu. A few seconds pass before our eyes as we are finally met with the image of the local chef., but it became clear this was the secret ace in the hole. The chef was none other than Jason Jordan.

CHEF JORDAN
Oh, Mister Gable; I've been expecting you. What shall I cook up for my tag team partner?

CHAD GABLE
Hold on. Jason? What are you doing here!?

CHEF JORDAN
It's a brand new day, Chad. Whenever I'm not competing inside that ring, I'm making the most delicious of meals. After all, you said it best. A meal is crucial before a contest. So, Chad? Take a look over the menu, and let me know what you'd like.

Gable seems genuinely baffled by the fact his tag team partner was the one cooking his meal, but a sarcastic chuckle escapes from Gable as he looks over the menu.

CHAD GABLE
Pancakes? Ice cream? What type of food is this, Jason? I came here for a feast. I wanted a meal. Something to get me pepped up. How can I be ready, willing, and most importantly? How can I be Gable with stuff like this? Do you think I can stay in tip top shape if I'm eating Ice Cream? Is this some sort of joke?

CHEF JORDAN
A joke? Of course not... (His face and sarcastic tone seemed to say otherwise.) I mean I wanted to prepare you for our match this week on Raw. I mean we're facing The New Day, Chad. These guys are all about pancakes. They stuff their foods with Ice cream, but have you seen our special? It's a true special for a true Olympian.

CHAD GABLE
The Booty-O special? Ugh, thanks, but no thanks. I'll pass.

Gable seemed genuinely disgusted by that last selection as he sets the menu aside. He motions for Jordan to sit alongside him as he sighs. Gable would use his foot to slide the chair out for his partner. Jordan looked disappointed that his close friend refused the meal, but slowly acknowledges his displeasure in the food as he sits alongside Gable.

CHAD GABLE
Listen, I'm all for jokes. But we need to discuss a game plan. In all seriousness; The New Day are not pushovers.

CHEF JORDAN
Who!? Who!? Who!?

CHAD GABLE
Are you even taking this serious?

CHEF JORDAN
To be honest? Not really. I mean I haven't had a single sale all day. Who the heck eats this crap?

CHAD GABLE
Certainly not American Alpha, right?

CHEF JORDAN
Yeah, about that. I may have ate some Booty-O's.

Gable seems caught off guard as Jason lowers his head in shame. Having admitted to eating the products of their future opponents.

CHAD GABLE
You're giving them even more ammunition. Are you wanting us to lose? I can't have you shaking your hips and getting into the spirit. We need your guts, grind, and determination to get the job done. After all, Big E is the muscles behind their team. You're the muscles to ours. He shakes his hips , and does all this motioning, and I can't have you doing that, because honestly? Big E has the moves. He can shake with the best of 'em. But you, man? You're like a fish out of water. No offense, but you should stick to wrestling. You do that well. Much better than Big E, Kofi Kingston, or Xavier.

There was some visible tough love between Gable and Jordan who both shake their head, but upon agreeing with each other, Jordan would retort Gable with his own points. Further adding onto their mixed onslaught of words.

CHEF JORDAN
I hate to say you're right, but I can't disagree with you. I'm a pretty good wrestler. Actually, we're both GREAT wrestlers. But you have nothing to worry about, Chad. After that one bowl, I knew just how big of a mistake I made. The taste was awful. Where I come from the only cereal that mattered was Cheerios. Heart healthy, and delicious.

CHAD GABLE
Yeah, let's go with that. But what are we going to do in regards to Kofi, and Big E? I mean I'm all but confident going forward. I'm not going to disrespect either of our fellow competitors, because they've made a name for themselves. Even if I don't condone their sugary intake and gyrating hips; I at least have to give them some credit. They're good, but compared to us, Jason? (Gable shrugs his shoulders, all before nodding his head back and forth.) They're not ready. We have the skills needed to get the job done. The WWE Universe is looking for a show of epic proportions. All of our fans in America are gonna be proud of us. Because it doesn't matter if we're in America, China, Japan, or even Toronto, Ontario, Canada -- American Alpha always finds a way to get the JOB done!

Gable and Jordan both look at each other with a mutual nod of respect as the two men smile at one another. Jordan has a few choice words to throw in, adding onto the confidence from Gable's side.

CHEF JORDAN
I guess you can say we're cooking up a recipe for success.

Jason adorns an even wider smile as he stretches his hand out for the approval of Gable. Chad seems rather disappointed by that childish joke, but instead of berating his partner, he joins in with a soft chuckle. Obviously a fake one, but still supportive nevertheless.

CHAD GABLE
Not just a recipe for success, Jason. But a recipe for the future. This week we cook up some grand scheme, and we defeat The New Day. After all, we got bigger fish to fry. See what I did there? (A soft wink comes from Gable, throwing his own stupid jokes into the mix.) But after it's all said and done. It comes down to the fat lady singin', and I'm not talking 'bout your momma, Jason. I'm talking 'bout results. And this week on Raw? They'll all come full circle for American Alpha. Because love it, hate it, you'll come to respect it. We are ready, willing, and Gable. That, and that alone is why American Alpha will stand tall. Because The New Day? That's just a piece of cake.

Those were the closing words from Gable as he turns back to Jordan who can't help but crack a smile after that cheesy ending. The scene ends with Gable pulling the menu close, almost as if there was a secret inside the menu. Our scene fades with that final image.

*********************

This was not how he imagined his night. This was not how he pictured his evening going. They were returning to Monday Night Raw. They were making their comeback on the A Show of WWE and they would be stepping into the ring with one of the most well liked and respected tag teams in the WWE right now, The New Day. He thought, he truly did think that they would be training. That American Alpha would be hitting the ropes to blow off the ring rust and to ensure they are fit and able for there match, but no. Chad Gable had other ideas, he wanted to try something a little bit different and now here he was, standing in the kitchen with his hands deep in hot water, washing up the dishes and his partner was nowhere in sight, as normal.

“Not only did I have to take the order, I had to prepare it, cook it, serve it to him and now here I am standing in the back doing the hard work once more. Cleaning up after him, cleaning up his mess because he cannot be bothered to do it himself. It is just like everything with us, I got to do all the work and he gets to take it easy and take all the glory, because the people like him more than me.”

He allowed a sigh to escape him as he would pull his hands out of the hot soapy water and place the plate at the side to dry out. He would shake his hands a few times before he walks across the kitchen, his eyes would narrow slightly as he would look at the table before him, the dessert was out there all ready to go. Pancakes – of course it was pancakes. He would let a sigh escape him was he would walk over to the table and look down at the stupid pancakes that lay out before him.

“I expected more, I truly did. Here I am, back after a career threatening injury. Defying all the odds, going against all the medical tests. I was told I would never compete again. That I would be lucky if I could ever move my legs, let alone wrestle, but at money in the bank I proved without a doubt that I am as good as I say I am. I walked into that money in the bank match and I put on the masterclass. I showed the locker room and the entire world watching, that I have not missed a beat and sure, I came up short, but what matters is that I made an impact and with that, I expected something better than this.”

He looked down, looking at the plate before him, the pancakes that lay there, all three of them, he bites his bottom lip as he would reach down and grab the plate. Lifting it up he would stare at it before he slants it to the side, watching as one by one the pancakes would slip and fall as they would connect with the floor with a thud.

“The New Day. What can be said about them. For countless years they have ran around here, parading around like mad fools. They formed together, because they where all lost. Each of them walked alone and each of them stumbled and fell alone. They had all been given the ball one at a time, only for it to burst in their hands. They all knew, that alone they where nothing. Kofi Kingston had been here for almost a decade and he had never come close to the top. Big E started of well, but like all big men like him, it does not take long for the steam to leave him and when it did, he fizzled out and Xavier Woods, the less said about him the better, he never even got going. Alone they where going nowhere and then they joined, meaning to become the next Nation Of Domination, but instead they became the Nation Of Assholes.”

Jason Jordan would look down at the pancakes on the ground, he could imagine the faces of The New Day in those stupid little buttery circles. He would yank of his chef hat and throw it across the room as he did not want to be a fool like them. He raises his foot upwards as he would slam it down, crushing the pancakes, doing it one at a time, imaging their faces and their cries for mercy. He would continue to do this until only crumbs remained at his feet.

“These prancing unicorn loving idiots have had it easy here. The only reason they have had the success they have had and won the titles they have won, was because American Alpha was not here to stop them. As much as Chad gets on my nerves with his antics, he is not nearly as annoying as they are. I know he had got on my wrong side today, but I know when it comes to it and we are in that ring against The New Day, regardless of with pairing step up to take us on, no one and I mean no one can defeat The American Alpha, because we are without a doubt the single greatest tag team walking this earth right now and if the New Day have a problem with that, then I dare them, I bloody dare them to push there pancakes to the side, put down the cereal and man up and try and do something about it."

He would look down at the mess he had created as he would turn around and walk away from it. He would yank of his apron as he would throw it to the side as he would prepare to leave as the door would open as Chad Gable would walk into the room. He was going to ask for the dessert, but he looked down at the floor below and it was clear what had happened.

“Jason, we all good here?”

He would utter as he would walk towards him, taking care to step over the pancakes and not slip and fall thanks to the butter that was all over the floor. He moves to stand before his partner, his brother, his fellow American Alpha.

“Chad, I need you, I really need you to take this seriously. This is not Money In The Bank. This is not a night where we can have fun, where we can just let it all sink in and enjoy the moment, win or lose. We have to win tonight Chad, we have to go out there and take down The New Day. Even with the things I think about them, the hatred I have for their childish like antics, there is a reason why they have been on top for so long. They have a plan, a game plan for everything. It is three against two and I fear if you are not on the same page as me, then it will be three against one.”

Jason Jordan would spill it all out. He needed more than his partner, he needed his brother, for without him then there would be no chance of victory. This was it, there one and only chance. A match against one of the top tag teams in the sport today did not come around every single day and Jason Jordan was right, this match had to be taken seriously.

“Jason, you don’t have to worry. I was only messing around with you tonight, I know you know that. Come show time, you can count on me. I mean seriously you knew we got this right? I mean look at them and then look at us, there is nothing they have that can match us. It does not matter what two of them get into the ring, hell even if all three got in against us, we would still win. We are American Alpha and we are taking this match!”

He was pumped, he was hyped up and more to the point he seemed more than ready for what was to come in there match. Jason Jordan would nod his head slightly as he offered his partner a smile.

“I guess that’s it then. It is clear to me that we are ready, willing and gable. American Alpha for the win!”

He puts his hand out and Chad Gable would do the same to cover it and on three they throw them up in the air before chest pumping, they where hyped and ready for this. New Day? Who the heck where they against American Alpha.
