Wrestl Drivl: Fantasy Booking - The Return of Awesome Truth

Before I get too into this, I gotta give a shout-out to my coworker Stephan, who helped germinate this idea. He and I will talk a lot of different things-- video games, movies, and pro wrestling-- and he's a great sounding board for me to bounce ideas off.

We came up with this bit of fantasy booking together, and I just had to write it down before we lost it. And it entails re-creating a heel tag team that together had a serious, if short, run in 2011-- R-Truth and The Miz, collectively known as "The Awesome Truth."

Wrestl Drivl: On Tag Team Wrestling

It is a sad truth that in WWE, tag team wrestling does not always seem to get the priority it should. There was a time when climbing to the top of the tag ranks was a major accomplishment. Today, while the title matches might be some epic confrontations, the Tag Division(s) seem like more of an afterthought than anything. And that's a shame.

Gamr Drivl: Assassin's Creed

I love the Assassin's Creed series made by Ubisoft. It combines stealth exploration with fluid melee combat, and across the franchise, has been set in various historical periods complete with various famous historical figures. And underlying it all is multi-layered lore involving the secret history of the world-- on one level, the conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins and the Templar Order, and on another, the lingering influence of a precursor race, the 'First Civilization,' who were responsible for creating mankind in the first place. It explores themes such as free will and security, with the Assassins seeking to safeguard the former and the Templars trying to assure the latter, usually impacting the former.

The most recent entry to the franchise, Assassin's Creed Origins, rewinds things back to Egypt during the time of Cleopatra and Julius Caesar, and shows us how the Brotherhood of Assassins was born. It incorporated a lot more RPG-style elements and was more open-world, almost Skyrim-esque in how you could explore the map to find more locations across Egypt.

But where does the Creed go from here?

Destiny 2: Lost Sector - The Atrium

Like many Destiny players, I mourn the loss of the Grimoire. While it was not perfect, it was a great way for Bungie to expand on the lore of the setting, and to encourage exploration of the world to find the 'dead Ghosts' that unlocked it. The Lore tabs on pieces of gear in Destiny 2 are good, but with no way to track or re-play the dialogue unlocked by scannables... well, it's just not the same.

So what comes below is a bit of lore I made up about the boss of one of Destiny 2's Lost Sectors, explorable side-dungeons.
