EARTH FIRST
COTG Promoter Prime 2021 Quarter 4
Original concept: Tom Filsinger
Updated concept and story: Rob Beaubien
You can’t have a war without America! Commander Sam and Stars and Stripes have stormed the portal at the Crossroads of the Galaxy looking for a fight! Uninvited, Earth First is taking no sides in the war on Kronos, instead inviting everybody else to join Team America - or become the enemy! “America follows nobody’s lead. You follow America’s lead.” declares Commander Sam. “Earth First!”
COMMANDER SAM
An alternate universe Commander Sam catches wind of a Great War taking place on Kronos and storms the Crossroads of the Galaxy with guns blazing! Who tipped Sam off? Did he secretly spy on Omega and follow him to the COTG? Nobody knows but he’s here now and he’s not alone!
Earth First is a rambunctious army of fired up fighters. Sam leads by example, standing up to everybody on Kronos and backing down from nobody on the villain team. “I’ve got real news for Infinity-Plex!” barks Sam. “If he thinks he can mess with Regulus without America sticking our nose in his business - he’s got another thing coming!” he says. “You can’t have a war without America. Earth First!” But what about Infinity and the hero team? “Earth First!” explains Sam. “Now that we’re here we’ll handle everything. If Infinity and his team want to join American forces - we’re always looking for new allies. Get in line, soldiers!”
How will Infinity and the rest of the hero team on Kronos react to Commander Sam kicking down the door and attempting to take over? And what does Sam’s close personal friend (and former enemy) Omega think about Earth First crashing the war on Kronos as Omega attempts to return the focus at the Crossroads on competition and championships?
Commander Sam is a brute in the ring. Like a one-man American army, Sam comes at his opponents without mercy and with a ton of firepower. He is a big and powerful wrestler who storms the ring like he stormed the portal and gets right to business with his fists flying.
Old Glory is a running ax handle smash. The Federation Defense Driver is a falling piledriver. All of this and more sets up COMMANDO SLAM, a running over the shoulder power slam from the American icon. When Commander Sam fights in trios matches with Stars & Stripes, they use an Earth-shattering move called NUCLEAR WEAPON. Sam uses his power to hoist the opponent up onto his shoulders, then both American Made and U.S. Air come off of the top rope with flying double dropkicks! The result is the opponent taking a massive four-footed blow to the skull then crashing backwards headfirst into the mat.
Don’t mess with America!
Note: Commander Sam brings his famous SAM’S BRAWL MATCH to Kronos and dares anybody at the Crossroads to fight him on his own turf! Will anybody be up to the challenge?
STARS AND STRIPES (AMERICAN MADE & U.S. AIR)
Stars and Stripes are loyal followers of Commander Sam and even prouder American soldiers. They are young, brash, brave and aren’t afraid to jump into any fight at the drop of a hat.
Stars and Stripes use a stockpile of offensive weapons to batter their enemies. Dropping Bombs is nothing but a double bully beat down of fists from American Made & U.S. Air who take full advantage of the referee’s five count before ceasing fire.
AMERICAN FIREPOWER is a Frankensteiner where American Made hooks the legs on impact for an extra powerful pin attempt. STARS AND STRIPES is when American Made and U.S. Air hit a superlex/diving head butt combo. American made hits the opponent with a superplex from one side of the ring while U.S. Air simultaneously leaps from the top rope on the near side of the ring and meets the crashing opponent head first with a saluting diving head butt. EARTH FIST is used by both members of Stars and Stripes and is another top rope maneuver, a falling fist drop right between the eyes of anybody who dares to stand up to America!
How will Stars and Stripes stack up against other main event tag duos like Desolation Factor, Sixth Law, Twin Telepathy and the Gladiators? Has America finally met its match or will everybody find out they’re second in command to Earth First!
