Nice, but I'd spice it up a bit. How's...

"Ooh yeahhhhh, dig it! I'm comin’ at ya from the top rope with a land acknowledgement that’s gonna shake the heavens! Snap into it! We’re standin’ on sacred ground, brother, we stole these ancestral lands of the [insert specific Indigenous peoples here], who had been stealing it from [other peoples], keeping the land in a constant cycle of murder, slavery and cannibalism since the dawn of time, ooh yeah! We took it from them like taking candy from a baby, ooh yeahhhh! Let's all laugh at their legacy being crushed with the intensity of a Macho Man elbow drop, and mock their backwards spirit like it owes back rent! Can you feel the madness? Ooh yeah!"
