((Late and suspenseful entrance here, designed to shock and amaze you all, and totally top Duane Wage's pitiful excuse for an entrance.
xd Don't know how I missed this.))
After a few excruciatingly long seconds, "Pride" by Soil began to play over the PA system as his usual video of him performing various moves on various individuals from various different promotions played on the screen. Cross was out on the stage, rocking the awesomeness that was his costume. The more times he came out onto a stage in this business, the more he loved it. And it was all because of these people right here. He slowly began to walk off the stage and down the ramp, stopping to perform the sign of the cross, and pray, before lifting his arms high into the sky as his multi-colored pyro began bursting off behind him. As that finished, he quickly went side to side, slapping the hands of the fans as he continued his way down the ramp.
"Heading to the ring, Hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 207 pounds, He is 'The Redeemer' Christopher Cross!"
His intro was finished about the time he hit the ring and ran up the steps, walking along the apron to the center, looking out to the fans, his left hand gripping the top rope firmly. At first, it seemed he was just going to stand there emotionless, but suddenly that great big beautiful smile of his came through. He could say it until his voice wore out and his mind broke down, but he loved this business. He kept that thought close as he turned towards the ring and catapulted himself to the inside, over the top rope. He made a quick run to a turnbuckle and jumped up onto the second rope, Hardy style, performing the sign of the cross once more, before jumping back down to the mat and walking over towards Duane. Cross looked at his opponent, the smile not leaving his face, at least not yet. He thought he'd offer a handshake, but wasn't sure if Mr. Wages would accept. Oh well, he gambled and offered his hand. If he was right, it was a good show of respect, if he was wrong, he just opened himself up for the early disadvantage.
