History[]
AWA[]
Born Ben Ottoson, Onslaught is an accomplished amateur wrestler having competed for his High School team as well as the University of Minnesota under Jay Robinson. Onslaught, a college dropout, went from the amateurs to the pros when he signed up with Eddie Sharkey's school in Robbinsdale, Minnesota (alongside former AWA World Champion and best friend, "The Sensational" Brian Stevens). Onslaught also spent a year in the dojo's of Japan, training alongside Stevens and the Great Japan Pro Wrestling talent, honing his craft. Upon entering the AWA a few months after Brian Stevens, Onslaught immediately sided himself with his best friend and became his bodyguard - putting his own wrestling career on hold. When Onslaught did get the chance to compete, he had great success - defeating men like The Fish, Orlando Ortega, C-Rock, Jeff Christianson & Logan Alexander; among others.
As the lifelong friend of AWA cornerstone Brian Stevens, Onslaught was forced to break out on his own when Brian Stevens was screwed out of the AWA World Championship and fired by The Legendary Low. Through the firing of his best friend, Onslaught has found a renewed purpose in the AWA: to avenge his best friend.
Onslaught's war on the remains of Damage, Incorporated began with Sir Nathaniel Henry Lee GBE. Onslaught was quick to blame NHL for not securing Stevens' contract and as well as chastising Sir Henry for even giving Low access to it. Onslaught engaged Sir Henry in a very personal war leading into a failed effort against Sir Henry at Hell On Earth 2008 in a No Disqualification match. Onslaught didn't give up after his failed first attempt and, at Vortex, Onslaught finally scored one for his team. He beat Sir Nathaniel Henry Lee GBE for the No Limits Championship in a Triple Glass Table match. Not only did Onslaught beat Sir Henry, he may have effectively ended his career when Onslaught threw NHL from the Entrance Stage, through four glass tables and onto a mess of electrical equipment. Onslaught was declared the winner - just as he watched the electrical equipment short and electrocute Sir Henry into unconsciousness. Onslaught won the first battle in the war. His next target is the administration itself: AWA President Travis Gray, AWA Commissioner Low and the current AWA World Champion Jason Storm - and anyone else who sides with Low. There is a war, my friends. Who's side are you on?
