History:
Chris Cole was an arrogant heel with more of a angry confidence then a smartass vibe. He truly believes he is the best in the OOWF. He proved very quickly to be a dominant force in BTW before coming to the OOWF. Having the company built around him (he was even co-booker) inflated his ego even more. He took that ego and added to it by quickly joining forces with Ax-man to form the 3 Piece Set. In their first act together as a team they took out Top Babyface Hardbody Harris and would continue to be major antagonists in Harris’s career keeping him from his goal of winning the OOWF World Heavyweight Title. They captured the OOWF Tag Team Title in February 2005 at OOWF Home Sweet Hell. Cole & Ax were able to swerve the company by revealing Firechild as their secret 3rd member. Cole & Ax as Tag Champs and Firechild as Onslaught Champ would be a great force in OOWF for all of 2005. Cole & Ax were even named Tag Team of the Year in 2005 winning the World Tag Titles 3 times.
Shortly after being named Tag Team of the Year and losing the tag titles, Ax & Cole decided to try going solo. Ax & Cole even had wagers on who would capture the OOWF World Title first. Cole got the leg up by wining the OOWF Invitational which guaranteed him a title shot. Ax then suffered a knee injury that forced him to the sidelines for quite awhile. With Ax sidelined Cole seems to spin his wheels as well. Tensions between the Set members intensified. Firechild was often preoccupied in his own fierce rivalries which Cole thought was keeping him from helping Cole win the OOWF World Heavyweight Title. He also accused Ax of milking his injury and not being supportive enough to the cause. To make matters worse Hardbody Harris had become OOWF World Heavyweight Champion.
Just when things looked their worse for the Set they turned things around with one eventful night. On May 10, 2006 at Midweek Mayhem Hardbody Harris was facing his Best Friend Chris Alt for the World Title. The two of them had been best friends and partners but Alt had won the right to challenge for the title. They had a series of matches already that were epic and hard fought but Harris found ways to win. On this night Alt snapped and got DQed and laid his former best friend out. He left to a chorus of boos as Chris Cole entered the ring. Cole demanded his guaranteed title shot and made quick work of Harris to capture the OOWF World Heavyweight Title. Chris Alt came back to ringside and to the surprise of all hugged Cole and flashed the sign of the Set. Harris was heartbroken of the betrayal and left the OOWF.
Cole, Firechild, and the newly dubbed Altrageous kicked founding 3 Piece Set member Ax to the curb and this new version of the Set had even more influence. Cole was World Heavyweight Champion and Altrageous was tearing up the IC Division while Firechild continued his dominance in the Onslaught Division. The only roadblock seemed to be GM The Rick who had previously been a thorn in the side of 3 Piece Set during their tag reigns. He continued to make rulings that seemed to go against the World Champion and the feud between Cole & Rick intensified.
Firechild’s issues with Cole never went away either. Cole still thought Firechild spent more time on his own career then helping the Set keep and win all the titles. This caused arguments between the members. The 3 Piece Set were not done shocking the world. 2 masked Men ended up winning the OOWF Tag Titles and then it was revealed to be Altrageous and Hardbody Harris. Harris decided “if you can’t beat them then join them”. This sent a big shockwave through the OOWF and its fanbase that adored Harris. Well the Set had always been a 3 man group so Firechild was the next to the get the boot. Cole as World Champion and Alt & Harris as Tag Champions would rule on for a few more months.
Through all the internal turmoil of the Set and all of GM The Rick’s interference Cole managed to keep his World Title for a record setting reign. And he never lost the title in a match, rather he was stripped of the title by the GM. Cole lost the vacant title in match with Underdawg. But this proved too much for the Set to survive. Harris & Alt eventually faded out of the OOWF and Cole found himself obsessed with the World Title and revenge on Rick and kept losing matches. The end came when he lost five consecutive matches to newcomer Davin Moreland while seemingly falling deeper and deeper into his own personal hell. Cole left the OOWF and did not return for over a year.
Cole came back to the OOWF and immediately people could spot a change. Gone was the power hungry asshole and in his place seemed to be a savy veteran who wanted to use his experience and wisdom to good use. He entered the company at the same time LJ Bennett and a group of other began to make rumblings. Cole wanted to make amends with Rick and apologized for previous wrongs. Rick wasn’t buying it. Cole also tried to patch things up with former stablemate Firechild. But Firechild was the slave of F. Fonzworth MacCappington III. Cole won Firechild’s freedom in a match and Cole & Firechild were able to patch things up. The two of them even wrestled together occasionally as members of 3 Piece Set getting big nostalgic pops all over the country. Cole also seemingly patched things up with another former rival, the man who defeated him on his way out of the company, Davin Moreland.
The war between the two factions in the OOWF intensified and Cole continued to try and guide Rick to smart decisions that would not lead to Rick being put in harm’s way. Cole stood up against Moosehead Jack and others who tried to bully Rick. Finally after months of trying Rick’s trust it appear like Cole had done so. But it all turned out to be a ruse. Moose & Cole had been working together and Rick ended up in a Barbed Wire Steel Cage and was brutalized by Cole in a sanctioned match. This is noted as the first shot in the war.
Cole had won another OOWF Invitational before the war started but now that Rick was once again a foe he never got the chance to cash this one in. Instead Davin Moreland was given the chance to win it from Cole. Moreland had come to be Rick’s number 1 after Cole’s betrayal. Moreland and Cole had a best of seven series and once again Cole was defeated by Moreland. Cole continued to fight for Bennett’s Army but they were defeated and disbanded.
Cole began to cross paths with Run DEA during this time. First and foremost the company was headed by adversary Davin Moreland who had also become OOWF World Heavyweight Champion. Cole also began a shirt feud with Intercontinental Champion Alexander Darling. He came close on a number of times to capturing the title. But he fell short and instead found a purpose in reclaiming the Onslaught Title to its former glory. When Firechild became the first Onslaught Champion the title had a set of rules that were unique and set it apart from the other titles. In recent times those rules were not enforced and title became no different from the IC. Cole made it his mission to win the title and did so at Doomy Doomy Doom Doom V. He brought back the classic rules and brought the title back into prominence. The Onslaught Title match even Main Evented an episode of Midweek Mayhem. Cole continued to feud with Alexander Darling and DEA. After a two month run Darling won the Onslaught Title.
Cole has stated one of his future goals is to win the IC Title. It is currently held by another in Run DEA, Firewoman and would achieve the goal of advancing that feud and being the last piece in Cole’s quest for a Grand Slam. Cole has also not been up to his usual heelish antics. As Onslaught Champion he had to win matches without cheating. Because of this and fighting the heel faction Run DEA, Cole has recently been cheered by the crowd. Even outside the Onslaught Division Cole seems to not be as heelish as he once was. Rather he does his own thing and lets the crowds decide if they want to cheer him or boo him.
