# Uh, you guys ready? # [The old film is in sepia tones, with flickering spots. It’s a scene of Baltimore, the old train station. Men work by the roundhouse, and a train rolls out, shooting steam into the air.] # Train roll on # [The sounds of the train are layered over the music. The rattle and clack of the wheels and pistons takes over the music – and as the old song fades out, another one hits.] [A classic. Soundgarden’s “Rusty Cage”] # Ohhhhh you wired me awake # [A shot of Daemon Curtis, the OLW Championship around his waist and his broken pimp cane in his hands. Quick flash to Avarice with Marissah Whitley, the glass blood amulet around her neck. Flash to Avarice and Curtis attacking each other. In the ring, outside it. Switch to old IWA footage. Jeffy Andrews and Freddy Phoenix fighting over the IWA Heavyweight Title. Phoenix throws Andrews off a balcony. Andrews dives over the ropes onto Phoenix. Cut to the SS Syndicate and Minority Uprising. Obscure footage from Japan, newer stuff from OLW where they both failed to win the CAL Tag Titles from Kid Xtreme and Crosslatch. NGN, with titles around their waists, interject themselves into the fracas, dealing out damage in various old-school ways.] # But I’m gonna break # [Big D, defiantly swinging the Mid Atlantic Title around, waylaying Tommy Shanahan, fighting with Top Dollar, Gemma Lockhart and more, standing alongside Impact. Phil McCracken, scenes from his BWWa career, fighting with Leona Lawless and Renier von Dunzendorf, holding the BWWa Title over his head. Fights between the two men, with Tommy Shanahan involved as well. Cut to more IWA footage. Heidi and Gemma Lockhart. Mat grappling displays, high flying, roundhouse kicks by the dozen. Gemma snarls, Heidi snarls back. Gemma hits Heidi with the CAL World Title.] # Toooo cold to start a fire # [Danny Vicious powerbombs Adam Delicious over the ropes. Delicious retaliates by beating Vicious down with a chair. Vicious runs with The Unforgiven II now. Paco Losantio and Yoshikazu YAZ tearing shit up in the ring. YAZ drops Freddy Phoenix with a brainbuster, Losantio drops Heidi with a Fisherman’s Michinoku Driver. The unknown before now Jeremy Winters simply regards the camera from behind his mask. Cut to Daeriq Damien standing in the background, smiling, as an empty eyed Brad Andrews mauls an opponent on the mat, driving fist after fist into his face. The massive Kaos throws some poor sap around the ring like a ping pong ball. Damien holds a raven haired girl in a choke hold while BA leers at the camera, a heart drawn in blood on his forehead.] # But I’m gonna break # [The storied rivalry between Flare and Loki. The breakup of the Inmates. Top Dollar amusing us all as his attempts at revenge do not work as planned. Loki biting people, Flare spinning around, Top Dollar doing the moonwalk when he should be wrestling. Keith Edwards holding the CAL World Title over his head. Duking it out with Top Dollar, then with Ultra Raptor and Cole Christenson in The Match Beyond. Piledriving Paul Dodgson through a table. It’s a sick scene, but Kristy’s hot, and so is Vanessa Dodgson. The Confederate Stars of America fighting over in HWL. Their arrival in OLW, and their starting wins.] # Hit like a Phillips head inside my brain # [Music Video: fade out.] # …and run! #
