Corey O' Brian

Corey O' Brian
Corey O' Brian is a performer who has worked with several of the AOL dice feds in the past, including RCWF and most notably NGPW where he won the NGPW Heavyweight Championship.

Early Days
Corey O' Brian briefly competed for RCWF in 2001, wrestling three matches before the company went on hiatus. He would resurface in late-2003 in New Hope Championship Wrestling, a promotion briefly ran by Jay "The Eliminator" White. His debut in NHCW was against the Eliminator in a losing effort, however he would later win the the Regional Title from Eliminator and Mr. Highlight in a three-way match and hold the title until the promotion's demise.

Shortly afterwards, the New RCWF opened, and O'Brian was immediately awarded the first Regional Championship. He held the title for 14 days losing it to Mr. Highlight due to underhanded tactics on Highlight's part.

Afterwards O'Brian, who was working a hungry young athlete gimmick, was sudennly cutting very dark and ominous promos about having revenge on someone who wronged him years ago. This would turn out to be his longtime friend Jason Brody, turning heel on him during a match, and revealing the reason for this revenge: Brody breaking his ribs eight years ago in Japan (this was a work for storyline purposes). Shortly after this, RCWF also folded, so Brody and O'Brian went to another upstart promotion, OWO.

O'Brian also competed in the Umbella Nationals, losing in a three-way HPWF Rules Match.

There, O'Brian began exploring his new heel persona, a darker, gothic-inspired character nicknamed "The Skorpion", a mockery of Jason Brody's alter ego "Spyder". He would face Jason Brody in two critically acclaimed bouts. After their final bout, an I Quit match which saw Brody breaking Corey's leg with a figure-four leglock, O'Brian would return as a babyface until OWO's close. Then, he would dissapear from wrestling for over a year, resurfacing in NGPW

NGPW
In NGPW, he came back as a cocky tweener called "The Antichrist Superstar". He would go own to form "The New Wave of Reality" with Nero Kross and DJ Terlaak and later won the NGPW US Title in an Elimination Chamber match, pinning then-champion Mike Theory with a Shotei, then losing it to Sage via a rollup in a cell match. A rematch between the two never happened as Sage would later quit the company.

Corey would go on to fued with several other opponents, notably Black Dragon and Ken Hansen, before getting his first shot at the NGPW World Title in a losing effort against then-champion Nathan Moore. After the return of talent who had dissapeared for months- namely Roz and Tad Peters, Corey would return to the midcard, now as "The CO", an arrogant heel, facing Black Dragon in a brutal Falls Count Anywhere match and Ken Hansen in a Strap Match before being frustrated with backstage antics and leaving the NGPW, which would go on hiatus a week later. Corey would (jokingly) later claim that it was 'proof that he was what kept NGPW alive'.

When NGPW returned, Corey O' Brian decided he wanted in, facing and defeating then-champion Tad Peters in a non-title bout. This time, he became a babyface following the code of Bushido, and had a non-wrestler 'trainer', Xander Starr, to play off as comic relief to Corey's serious promos. Corey would go on to fued with Jake Micheals, after Corey warned Roz (the #1 Contender at the time) that Jake Micheals (who was siding with Roz) would betray him. Jake and Corey fought until Corey admitted that Jake was trustworthy "for now."

After the fued with Micheals Corey had gained a chance at Tad Peters' title. After nearly losing to a Gravedigger Corey would use a Super Core Meltdown to finish Tad Peters off and win a world championship for the first time. Afterwards Tad Peters (the owner of the company) would lose interest in NGPW, which would flounder about before dying in early 2007.

HPWF
Black Dragon and Corey O' Brian would enter the HPWF arena shortly afterwards, joining the company. They would form a mini-stable that aimed to enforce the rules of wrestling by brutally assualting (or as they put it "executing") wrestlers who used cheap shots. This lead to Black Dragon using illegal tactics and Corey O' Brian hitting his 'protege' with chair. Shortly afterwards Corey O' Brian and Black Dragon would face off in a Comraderie Tournament match, where Black Dragon(with a valet in Christina Michelle) bested O'Brian after Christina put Black Dragon's leg over the ropes after Corey's signature "Core Meltdown" move. Afterwards, Black Dragon would tell Corey he's being his own man, which Corey responded with giving Black Dragon "[his] blessing". Black Dragon would answer this with a sudden chair shot to the throat, which led Corey to be mute for the next few weeks.
