*Silence. A black screen is all that graces the monitor of your TV. You adjust the volume, expecting that just maybe, the sound and picture of your set was just screwed. You find this odd, seeing as it’s the plasma TV you’ve had in your apartment since you came to the US over two years ago. Someone at work had told you to check this joint out whenever you were off work. Well, thank god this was a resting week. Soon Deine Schuld by Die Ärzte blasts through, causing you to jump a little at the unexpected music. The black screen burns away to images of a wrestler demolishing his opponents in some sort of German independent wrestling circuit. Soon, a sotto voice creeps over the music*
Voice: 1939, the first German Panzers rolled into Poland, bringing with them a trail of destruction, a Blitzkrieg. Soon these machines were some of the most feared artillery equipment to be used on the front.
*The same guy saluting the crowd*
Voice: 2011, The Human Panzer lands in America. Much like his mechanical forerunners in Poland over 70 years ago did, he too will bring destruction and chaos wherever he may go. He will bring with him a ‘Flammenkrieg’, a war that has never before been seen on the shores of the US.
*The same man, this time holding a prop AK-47 aloft, as flames spurt out from the barrel*
Voice: This Tuesday...
*Taking out his opponent with a huge boot to the face*
Voice: Rusty Axel.....
*Powerslam to the outside*
Voice: Will attempt to stop the Flammenkrieg from hitting the American shores....
*Man with his arms raised in triumph*
Voice: LIVE! On AWR CRASH! TV.....Rusty Axel will take on.....
*Shot of a silhouette at the end of a long foggy tunnel*
Voice: Wilhelm ‘Flammenkrieg’ Kaast!
*The shot zooms in quickly to show Wilhelm smiling slyly as he looks down sort of*
Voice: Only on AWR CRASH! TV. Check your local listings for timings.
*You switch off the TV with a sense of excitement. It has been a while since you saw your cousin*
Viewer: Christ, I never thought he’d bloody well turn up in America.
*You reach for your iPhone, the screen alight with a text from Zeke regarding Outlast. You ignore it, and go directly to the phone icon, clicking the call button for Willy*
Voice: Hey, Will. It’s JK mate.
*The camera pans around to show ‘The Aussie Superstar’*
JK: Why didn’t you tell me you were in America?
*The scene fades down to a local Gym, where Wilhelm is seen throwing punches at the old and worn out punching bag. Grunting words between punches*
Wilhelm: Mustn’t lose.....Must give it my all....must win!
*We notice JK soon entering the gym, smiling at the sight of his German cousin. He gives a little wave out, and calls out to Wilhelm, who barely looks away from his training*
JK: Yo, Will!
Wilhelm: Yes, hello JK.
*JK walks up to him*
JK: Training hard, or hardly training?
*Both share a quick laugh as Wilhelm takes a break from throwing strikes*
Wilhelm: Still a joker, I see. I guess you saw my little debut?
JK: Yeah, mate. Why the fuck didn’t you tell me that you were coming over? Could’ve gotten you a spot in UGWC.
*Wilhelm sighs*
Wilhelm: Don’t take this the wrong way, Jordan. You know how important family is to me. But, I don’t want to be seen as a heel right now, and if I’m teaming with you, then that’s how I’ll be seen. I want to be someone to get the fans excited, someone they can look up to, and cheer.
JK: Dude, don’t get me wrong I miss that crap, but you’ve gotta get your head out of the clouds, the fans will turn on you in an instant if you give them a chance.
Wilhelm: Then I’ll just enjoy it as long as I can.
*JK shrugs*
JK: Hey, your career, mate. So, this match against this Rusty Gears....
*Wilhelm corrects him*
Wilhelm: Rusty Axel.
JK: Meh, same difference. Anyway, you looking forward to it?
Wilhelm: That’s an understatement, Jordan. I am really excited to finally kick-start a career internationally. You know I’ve been wrestling in the small-time circuits for way too long. Now, I get to show that I’m capable of desecrating any opponent in any federation, big or small. Rusty Axel may have been in the ring before, then again, so have I, but he has never come up against someone like Wilhelm ‘Flammenkrieg’ Kaast! Someone with the same intensity as the Human Panzer, someone with the same durability and stamina, someone with the same strength, no! There is only one Flammenkrieg, and this week, Axel will be the first to fall to it.
*JK is laughing slightly, irritating Wilhelm somewhat*
Wilhelm: What’s so funny?
JK: All that hot air you just let off. You’d think your head would shrink, but I just saw it grow a little!
*Wilhelm just rolls his eyes and smirks*
Wilhelm: Quiet, you.
*He playfully punches his arm as the scene fades to black*
