*Acoustic guitar playing is heard as the scene opens up with "The Role Model" in an empty ring. He's circling around an invisible opponent as Johnny Cash starts singing.*
There's a man going around taking names
And he decides who to free and who to blame
*The scene changes to show Jordan walking down to the ring before one of his matches. He has his goofy grin and slaps hands with a few fans.*
Everybody won't be treated all the same
There'll be a golden ladder reaching down
*Jordan hitting the Perfect Example on JJ Executioner plays, then is followed up by him locking the Idolizer on Wife Beater.*
When the Man comes around
*The scene changes back to the ring where Jordan drops to a knee and hits a Fireman's Carry on a his invisible opponent.*
The hairs on your arm will stand up
At the terror in each sip and in each sup
*The scene changes to a wide angle shot of the whole arena going crazy as Jordan is shown hitting the Shooting Star Press on an unidentified opponent, then transitions to a closer view to see him hit the Shooting Star Press.*
Will you partake of that last offered cup?
Or disappear into the potter's ground
*Footage plays of the Connection laughing in their locker room and transitions to Jordan ripping up a poster of said stable with the tear going perfectly between himself and MJW.*
When the Man comes around
*Back in the ring, Jordan hits the imaginary opponent with an Arm Drag and stays locked on his arm.*
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
One hundred million angels singing
*The producers are shown hitting a couple of buttons. The AWA-tron comes to life with Jordan's video package as it is assumed that "Even Flow" is played. The camera spins around to show the fans going wild.*
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
Voices calling, voices crying
*Multiple shots are shown of fans waiting in long lines to buy tickets for the next AWA event. Many are glad in Connection or Jordan T-shirts.*
Some are born and some are dying
It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come
*Footage is played of Jordan successfully defending his Intercontinental Title against Abdul Aziz O'Malley and Jake Andrews with the final image being that of Jordan standing on the middle turnbuckle holding the Intercontinental Title high.*
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
*Jordan is shown to be lacing up his boots, then the shot switches to Jake Andrews polishing the AWA World Heavyweight Title.*
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
*Jordan is in his locker room in his wrestling gear as he kneels and places his forehead on his fists either in prayer or in meditation as the shot changes to show Jake Andrews smirking as he snatches his title off a chair and head out of his locker room.*
Till Armageddon no shalam, no shalom
Then the father hen will call his chickens home
*The scene changes to show JJ Executioner pinning Croc after Croc laid down for him with Jordan tied up in the ropes unable to break the "pin" as JJ takes the Pure Title.*
The wise man will bow down before the throne
And at His feet they'll cast their golden crowns
*We skip forward to Jordan beating JJ in their rematch, then showing Dylan Crane presenting him with the Intercontinental Title.*
When the Man comes around
*Back in the ring, Jordan, looking tired, stumbles back into the corner as sweat pours off of him as he must have been working out for well over an hour.*
Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still
*Jake Andrews is shown where he threatened Miss Taylor before laughing and walking away.*
Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still
*"The Role Model" is shown signing autographs for some fans after a show.*
Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
*Footage is shown of Andrews bossing around his girlfriend, all the while with a smirk on his face.*
Listen to the words long written down
*Jordan speaks on the microphone, then gives his goofy grin as the fans go crazy.*
When the Man comes around
*Back in the ring, Jordan wills himself out of the corner and continues his work-out.*
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
One hundred million angels singing
*Before a show, vendors are trying to sell their merchandise as a swarm of AWA fans walk up to the arena. The parking lot fills past its capacity as the shot switches to inside the arena to show the empty seats quickly being filled.*
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
Voices calling and voices crying
*The fans all file into the arena as many are jumping up as they cannot contain themselves. The shot switches to Jordan rolling out of the ring with the Intercontinental Title after another victory. The fans are showering him with praise as he holds the back of his neck.*
Some are born and some are dying
It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come
*Footage of Jordan pinning O'Malley at UK Brawl and being crowned "Champion of Champions" plays, then Jake Andrews shows up and beats Alexander Monroe for the World Heavyweight Title. The two champions just stare at each.*
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
*Before one of their previous matches, Jordan is shown squatting down in the corner looking ready to wrestle. The shot switches to Andrews who rolls his eyes at the referee's instructions while in his corner.*
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
In measured hundred weight and penney pound
*Jordan is shown hitting the Perfect Example on Andrews and pinning him for the win. He is handed the Intercontinental Title and celebrates.*
When the Man comes around
*Back in the ring, a even more tired Jordan just falls back in the middle. He hits the mat and can only throw his arms up high as he smiles. As Johnny Cash finishes playing, the image of Jordan and Andrews staring at each other in the Battle of Champions III promo poster is shown, then we fade to black.*
