The video opens with Joe Hendry dressed as "Damian Priest", complete with a cardboard cutout of Priest's face taped over his own, standing in a brightly lit dressing room. He’s holding a makeup brush in one hand and a compact mirror in the other, looking frantically at his reflection. The camera pans to another Joe Hendry, this time dressed as Paul Heyman, wearing a suit with a cardboard cutout of Heyman’s face taped over his own. "Heyman" is carrying a large, ridiculous makeup kit shaped like a briefcase.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Paul Heyman, please, grab your brush,
I’m on a make-up rush!
This is another Damian Priest exclusive,
Come on!" 🎵

The beat kicks in, and "Heyman" dramatically slams the makeup briefcase onto a vanity table, flipping it open to reveal absurdly packed brushes and palettes. Hendry as "Heyman", meticulously applies makeup to "Damian Priest". "Priest" looks overly dramatic, tilting his face side to side like a diva while "Heyman" wields a makeup sponge with comical precision.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Is it blended? Let Paul work it,
He grabs the sponge, dabs, and perfects it.
If my contour’s off, let him fix it,
Paul’s got the skills to make it exquisite." 🎵

At the line "dabs, and perfects it," "Heyman" pauses to dab "Priest’s" face dramatically. Makeup splashes everywhere, covering the mirror. The scene cuts to "Heyman" spinning "Priest" around in a chair like a contestant on a makeover show. "Heyman" pulls out a gold palette labeled "That Spoiler Glow" and dramatically swipes glitter on "Priest’s" cheekbones. The lights dim, and a spotlight from the camera highlights the glow-up.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Paul’s got my foundation smooth and bright,
He works the glow so it hits just right.
My cheekbones pop, my brows are fierce,
Without his touch, I’d be in tears." 🎵

The camera zooms in on "Priest" sobbing comically, only for "Heyman" to shush him with a makeup brush and reapply eyeliner.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "He’s got the brushes, the palette’s gold,
When Paul’s in charge, my look’s untold.
Not in the ring, he’s backstage chillin’,
With highlight game that’s absolutely thrilling!" 🎵

During "backstage chillin’," "Heyman" turns dramatically to the camera with fresh makeup now applied to his "face". The camera zooming in to show the makeup work now done with "Heyman" himself. The scene cuts to "Heyman" doing an exaggerated catwalk down a hallway while holding up makeup brushes like trophies. "Priest" follows behind, flipping his hair dramatically as glitter falls from him as they walk down the hall.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Is it blended? Let Paul work it,
He grabs the sponge, dabs, and perfects it.
If my contour’s off, let him fix it,
Paul’s got the skills to make it exquisite." 🎵

At "perfects it," the camera pans to a stock photo of a walrus who has badly edited Paul Heyman hair and suit with new makeup and brush on him appears. "The Wiseman Behind the Glow. Not a Prediction, Just a Spoiler" The crowd can be heard through the speakers bursting into laughter. The video transitions to "Priest" standing in a ring surrounded by mirrors, admiring himself. "Heyman" appears beside him, wielding a brush like a magic wand, and the camera focuses on "Priest’s" flawless makeup.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Paul, you’re the man with the magical hands,
You make me shine for all my fans.
My eyeliner’s sharp, my lips divine,
Your make-up game is so sublime." 🎵

As the beat drops, "Heyman" suddenly starts twerking while holding a bronzer brush applying makeup to "Priest's" face.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Boy, lift it up, let’s raise a toast,
To Heyman’s touch, it’s him I boast.
Without your skills, I’d be a wreck,
But now I slay with every neck check!" 🎵

At "neck check," "Priest" strikes a dramatic pose, showing off a perfectly blended neckline as "Heyman" applauds proudly, but his hands more limp like a walrus. The video cuts to a montage of "Heyman" running around backstage with a makeup kit, chasing "Priest" to touch up his look. In one shot, "Heyman" accidentally spills glitter everywhere, creating a cloud of shimmer.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Hoping for the best while my eyeliner’s cracking,
Paul’s in the back, his palette’s never slacking.
I’ll never ask, and you’ll never tell,
But Paul, your magic keeps me looking swell.
Hoping for the best while my highlight’s fading,
Paul’s got the bronzer, always upgrading.
I’ll never ask, and you’ll never tell,
But everyone knows it’s you who works well!"🎵

At "keeps me looking swell," the camera cuts back to the stock photo of the walrus with a glittery filter added. The text underneath now reads: "The Wiseman Glow." The final chorus features "Priest" and "Heyman" dancing together in the ring, surrounded by mirrors and glowing lights. "Heyman" twerks again, holding up his oversized makeup brushes, while "Priest" strikes dramatic poses.

"DAMIAN PRIEST"
🎵 "Is it blended? Let Paul work it,
He grabs the sponge, dabs, and perfects it.
If my glow’s fading, let him fix it,
Paul’s got the skills to make it exquisite." 🎵

As the music winds down, "Heyman" pats "Priest" on the shoulder and hands him a compact mirror. "Priest" smiles and holds up a sign that reads: “Paul’s Glam Squad Approved.” The video ends with "Priest" and "Heyman" standing back-to-back, each holding a makeup brush in one hand like a sword. The stock photo of the walrus flashes on the screen one last time, before "I BELIEVE IN JOE HENDRY!" bursts through the speakers to the live audience as the fans erupt in cheers. Hendry steps onto the stage, his ribs visibly taped, but his smirk as confident as ever. He makes his way to the ring and even tries to wave his arms side to side with the crowd, playing to their energy, but clearly still is a step slower with the impact of Big Show throwing him through the wall backstage. After, Hendry turns to the camera, his own branded microphone in hand.

JOE HENDRY
“Ladies and gentlemen!”

The crowd chants, “We Believe!” as he paces the ring with a playful yet focused demeanor.

JOE HENDRY
“Now, I know what you’re all thinking: ‘Joe, how do you come up with these masterpieces? Where does the genius come from?’ And honestly, the answer is simple: when inspiration strikes, you just have to roll with it. And Damian Priest? You, my friend, are walking, talking, contour-wearing inspiration.”

Many in the crowd laughs, though there also notably those who remain solemn and loyal to Priest, as Hendry leans against the ropes, mockingly rubbing his taped ribs.

JOE HENDRY
“Before we get into that, though, let’s address the elephant in the room, or should I say the walrus in the room?”

A massive cheer breaks out as Hendry points to the titantron, where the freeze-frame edit of the walrus as Heyman from the music video is displayed. Hendry laughs along with the crowd.

JOE HENDRY
“Don’t worry, Paul, that wasn’t personal. I just thought it was important to honor your true essence. But let’s get serious for a moment, because as much fun as that video was, these ribs - ”

Hendry pats his taped side and winces.

JOE HENDRY
“They’re no laughing matter.”

The crowd boos, remembering the brutal attack by Seth Rollins and Big Show a few weeks ago.

JOE HENDRY
“A few weeks back, Seth Rollins and Big Show thought they could take me out. They thought throwing me through a wall would be the end of Joe Hendry. But I’m still here, and I’m still standing, because when you believe, you don’t just quit. You keep fighting. And I am, if not a man that is two-hundred and fifty two pounds of inspiration, I am a fighter!”

The crowd roars in approval as Hendry straightens up, pointing at his ribs.

JOE HENDRY
“These ribs may be taped, but my resolve? That’s unbreakable. So Seth, Big Show, you can swing your cheap shots and play your little games, but you didn’t break me. You just made me hungrier. So as I come into tonight scheduled one-on-one with the Gateway Heavyweight Champion of the World! I now see my path clearly. Damian Priest!”

Hendry pauses, his tone shifting to one of playful seriousness.

JOE HENDRY
“Let’s talk about you, champ. Did you enjoy the video? I mean, I worked really hard to capture the spirit of your partnership with Paul Heyman. The brushes, the glitter, it’s all that makes up your greatness!”

The crowd laughs as Hendry walks to the center of the ring, looking directly into the camera.

JOE HENDRY
“But in all seriousness, Damian, let’s not pretend you didn’t see the point. I have fun poking at you, but the fact is, that I KNOW you're one hell of a competitor. These people know you've been on top of the wrestling world for a long time now. I don't come here thinking that this one video will throw you off your game. However, I will be honest with you. Tonight, I am coming at you with EVERYTHING I have! Because while you may enjoy being Gateway Champion and coming into tonight seeing that it is non-title. I NEED TO BEAT YOU!"

The crowd cheers as Hendry’s tone becomes more intense.

JOE HENDRY
“You see, Damian, I must defeat you tonight because my path is clear. My path is to become Champion! Not just for me, not just because those two bozos threw me like a lawn dart through a solid wall. No, I WILL become champion to show every single person in this arena who spent their hard-earned money to see us, chanting right now at the top of their lungs - 'WE BELIEVE!'”

The crowd chants on cue, “WE BELIEVE!”

JOE HENDRY
"That anything is possible with belief and inspiration!"

The crowd cheer as Hendry is clearly fired up at this point.

JOE HENDRY
“So, Damian, you hold onto that Gateway Championship real tight. Tonight win or lose it is staying there with you. But after tonight, when I beat one of the greatest wrestlers in the world, I will be down MY path! And to quote a man I respect, that isn't just a prediction - THAT is a spoiler!”

Hendry flips the mic dramatically, holding his arms out as the crowd erupts into cheers. His music hits, and he climbs the turnbuckle, playing to the fans as the camera fades to black on his confident smirk.
