The arena went black. A couple of moments later, the guitars of Ice Nine Kills's Freak Flag started to blare over the speakers as the lights came back on casting the arena in a reddish glow. From the back, Rex Kobra and Ramona Tyler stepped out standing side by side. They stood in the center of the ramp and stared down at the ring. They looked to each other and stood like that for a moment before looking back to the ring. The pair suddenly shot their arms out to the side causing the stage on either the the sides of the pair to erupt in flame. As the flames died down, the pair lowered their arms and they started down the ramp.
We're taught to be like them Taught to know our place We kept the pace but we're done pretending We'll fall blindly through the fairy tale endings
They tried to sell us the convenience and conformity Those are the images of the man that I want to be Rise up if you agree
As the pair started down the ramp, hooded individuals started to follow them out of the back. Thirteen cultists that have made their presence known before following close behind their leader. Rex and Ramona walked at a slower deliberate pace, coming up with strategies and plans. Rex's eyes stayed locked on the ring. His cathedral. After the Wargames, he was being granted an even better gift and he would pull those titles from the cold hands of Salem and Erynys and dedicate them to The Serpent. At the bottom of the ramp he stopped and glared over to Ramona who stared back with a nervous look in her eyes. She had a lot to prove or she was certain to feel more agony.
"And introducing...from The Land of Darkness and Nightmares...The Defiler Rex Kobra...and The Vipress Ramona Tyler....The Cult of the Serpent..."
And let your freak flags fly We're all messed up inside And forced to act like everything's alright Wave those freak flags high Rejected 'til we die To hell with tomorrow Just let your freak flags fly tonight
We're taught to fall in line Taught to know the rules We've played the fools and we're over the laughter They can't keep us up in the happily ever afters
Rex turned back to face the ring and the other member of his family. He moved to the steps and climbed them, his sister following along behind him. On the apron, they split so that they were standing on different ones. They looked over at each other and at the same time, ducked down and climbed into the ring under the top rope. Inside the ring, they moved to the center of the ring and dropped down to their knees where they looked up to the heavens and the Serpent beyond, all the while, the cultists started to move around the ring, surrounding their leaders.
Rex and Ramona threw back their hoods as they looked away from the heavens and looked at each other again. Simultaneously, they stood and removed their shades and coats. They passed them to the cult outside and moved to their own corner where Kobra started to whisper strategies and threats into his sister's ear.
They can't sell us on convenience and conformity Those are the properties of people that we want to be Rise up if you agree
And let your freak flags fly We're all messed up inside And forced to act like everything's alright Wave those freak flags high Rejected 'til we die To hell with tomorrow Just let your freak flags fly tonight
The music died down and Rex gestured to his Cult. The lights went out and as they came back on, Ramona was on her apron, Rex was leaning against the far ropes, and the cultists were no where to be seen for the moment. Whether they hidden in the crowd or had simply disappeared to wherever they went in the dark, no one knew. All they knew was that Kobra was staring at the ramp with a predatory grin.

The crowd would watch idly for just a moment as before Mitch Hetfield screamed across the PA system:
Gimme fuel, Gimme fire, Gimme that which I desire, Ooh!
With the last sound, fireballs burst up from the stage, "The Savage Sons" appearing on the titantron as the audience popped loudly with enthusiasm and praise. Stepping out onto the stage, pyro continued to belch from the stage in sequence reminiscent of a combustion engine as Erynys stood at the top of the ramp, dressed in his hooded Apex gear, his eyes still partially bandaged, the gold firmly wrapped around his waist.
Yeah! Turn on... I see red! Adrenaline crash and crack my head! Nitro junkie, paint me dead! And I see red!
Descending the ramp, he stormed down to the ring with Salem in hot pursuit, trying his best to talk some sense into his partner.

Salem rushed after Eryn, knowing he wasn't medically cleared for this match but was determined to defy Cartwright and Rex after War Games, anyway! As they reached the ring apron, "Showtime" managed to get between Reich and the squared circle, putting hands to his chest to hold him back long enough to listen! Pleading with his friend and partner, Salem insisted Eryn let him start things off!
"Bro, BRO! I get it! You want at him, and I do, too! He threatened my kid, Eryn! Kyra! I gotta make that right! Let me go in first, okay?!"
