Revolution by Judas Priest hits with its heavy bass the lights in the arena go dark and a slight mist gathers on the stage. Suddenly, the rolling guitar riff kicks in and things go chaotic as spotlights swing over the audience's heads like searchlights, snapping back to the center of the stage as a heavy metal scream pierces through the dark. The silhouette of a man is glimpsed, standing on the stage with his head down and arms raised, but before he can be revealed entirely the lights snap off and red and gold fireworks shoot up, forming a giant 'X' in front of the stage. The man performs a running jump through the middle of the 'X' and lands on the top of the entrance ramp, revealing himself to be Chris Angelos and throws his signature "Inverted middle finger" hand gesture at the audience. The lyrics start off and Chris walks slowly and confidently down the ramp towards the ring, talking trash and throwing inverted middle fingers around at "Non-Revolutionaries" all the while. When he is just a few feet away from the ring Chris breaks into a sprint and slides into the ring, Edge-style, looking around at everyone as he lies on his front, propped up on his arms. Hopping nimbly to his feet, Chris moves to the nearest turnbuckle and climbs to stand on the second rope, he looks out over the audience and taps his wrist as if pointing at an invisible watch. "Change is coming!" He calls out across the arena and he is answered by his Revolutionaries shouting "Join the Revolution!". With a smirk Chris throws his hands up with inverted middle fingers again and nods, climbing down from the turnbuckle and moving to climb the turnbuckle in the opposite corner where again he stands on the second rope. This time it is he who shouts "Join the Revolution!" and placing a hand by his ear he is answered again by his Revolutionaries, who this time shout "Time for Retribution!". Chris finishes by throwing up the inverted middle fingers a final time before jumping down off the turnbuckle to do some warm ups in the middle of the ring.
