Bio: Jarrak and Nick McKoontz: the two British bastids who are more commonly known as Chaos Theory, also known as “Those Guys”, also known as “The Original ****ed Up Tag Team”, also known as “Crazy Bastards”. Yeah, they’re THAT known. At first glance, you would mistake the pair as a couple of members for a band (which quite ironically, is true), but within their home known as XWA, the two team up to take on the ranks of the Tag Team division, hoping that in one way or another (that one way mostly relying on luck, and the other being unfortunate circumstances) make a grab for the Tag Team gold.
How did these two meet? Well… it all started when the two met at seco- wait, you crazy bastards are American. What’s the term again? Oh yeah: “High” School. That’s it. Anyway, the two met at High school, both being quite the wrestling enthusiasts, AND sharing a love of Metal. By the time the pair left, their minds were set on making a career out wrestling. Find places to be trained at was a pain in the arse at first, until they came across a building known as “The Dojo”, owned by the former WCW World Champion “Testudo”: the same guy who would eventually manage them in the future. Noticing a potential future for the pair, Testudo was rigid in the training program he gave Jarrak and McKoontz, never letting them give up for one second.
It wasn’t long before they got to be regarded as Testudo’s favourites. Thanks to the amount of effort and dedication they put into their training, it caused Testudo to contact the well known FWA, securing them contracts. Excited, Chaos Theory packed their things and headed straight to their first show. What happened you ask? Well, they got too excited and flopped their debut. Nevermind boys, shit happens. Taking the loss on board, the two realised their mistakes and were able to prevail in their next encounter with the team that whooped them. Their stay within FWA racked them a large string of wins, AND 5 successful reigns as the promotion’s Tag Team Champions.
Some time later, the duo received a call from their former mentor, Testudo. He called to inform them that The Dojo was being merged into an upcoming promotion known as “REW”, and asked the pair if they were interested in joining. Accepting without hesitation, Jarrak & McKoontz got into negotiations with management on how they wanted to leave FWA. Both parties came to an agreeable conclusion, and on the following show, despite beating their opponents, Chaos Theory handed the belts to them, telling them to hold the gold with pride, whilst receiving a large ovation from the FWA crowd.
By now, Chaos Theory had returned to Bournemouth to become a part of the REW roster. After being greeted by their former mentor (who had now secured a backstage staff role as a part of the merger), the pair immediately got to work, demolishing the Tag Division with ease and winning audience members with ease. With all the good times happening, you’d surely think that something bad would eventually happen, right?
Correct you are. News reached REW that over in America was a popular wrestling tournament known as “The Odin Tournaments”. The round advertised was of a Tag Team speciality. Highly keen on participating, Jarrak and McKoontz got the first flight to America to take part. In their first round, they took on the might of Cabal & Cinder Xavier, known as The Mad Dragons. Despite their best efforts, Chaos Theory lost and were relegated to the loser’s bracket. This did not stop either of the duo, as they pressed on. Disaster struck in the third round. A female tag team known as “Rachel and Rebecca” easily took down the pair. Enraged by such a loss, Jarrak turned on McKoontz, delivering a thunderous Chokeslam in the center of the ring. Chaos Theory was broken. Hearing the news, Testudo immediately called back Jarrak, separating him from McKoontz so he could recuperate and prepare for the next Odin Tournament.
Whilst McKoontz took part in the next Odin Tournament, Jarrak returned back to England. As soon as he was back in REW, a new attitude emerged within Jarrak. He developed a cocky and arrogant attitude, leading to dub himself “The Cocky Icon”. On his singles run, Jarrak captured the REW heavyweight title on three occasions, going as far to call McKoontz “a deadweight”.
Getting bored quickly with the same talent, Jarrak wanted to move on, leaving England for America. There he made his way to the promotion known as “WTF”, the development site for VWE. However, Jarrak soon felt unappreciated within WTF. He gave it the middle finger and left for another place: LXW.
So, LXW. What can I say? Jarrak’s debut was less than spectacular, getting eliminated first from a 4-Man Battle Royal. His little feud with Essence led to Jarrak having an up-and-down success rate.
Meanwhile, over at the Odin Tournament, McKoontz entered what was known as “The Dark Tournament” and was drafted into a team of five, which included the highly successful “Odin Machine”. Unfortunately, the tournament wasn’t able to be completed, leaving McKoontz with nothing to do. Hearing about LXW, he too decided to join.
Jarrak eventually got wind of Cabal & Cinder Xavier joining LXW. The news of their arrival led to Jarrak wanting revenge, even if doing it alone. Rather unsurprisingly, McKoontz also joined LXW around the same time as them, drafted onto the opposite brand to Jarrak. When the two met again since their falling out, there was quite some tension. Whilst McKoontz was willing to forgive, Jarrak still blamed him for the loss. The two came to the agreement of teaming up for one-more time to take on Cabal & Cinder, now known as The Twin Dragons. However, suffering a brutal attack from Cinder, Jarrak came to his senses and reunited with McKoontz fully. Chaos Theory were back again. Unfortunately, the time they spent apart was clearly evident, as the duo lost with ease against The Twin Dragons.
It wasn’t long before Chaos Theory received a shock visitor: Testudo. Resigning from his position at REW (reportedly unhappy with the direction it was taking), Testudo brought upon himself to immediately bring the duo back into fighting form.Whatever the hell he did, it surely worked, as Chaos Theory began bringing on a successful string of wins. Their success soon dropped them into a Triple Threat Tag Team match against The Twin Dragons and the Hard Knockers for the TTT Titles. Chaos Theory came on top, as Jarrak was able to make Joe Bruiser submit to his “Lethal Injection” Camel Clutch. Whilst they did not pin the Twin Dragons, the feeling of stripping them of the gold was good enough to exact their sought-after “revenge”. They managed to keep the titles all the way to the end of the season, shoving away Full House to keep them.
Offseason time. Good times. Or so you would think. McKoontz and Jarrak decided to retreat to England for a break, relaxing and having fun, which included “raiding chav clubs”. During one so-called raid, their escape plan backfired. McKoontz was unexpected blindsided by an aggressive chav with a broken bottle. The attack caused McKoontz to become badly scarred across the left side of his face, staying there for life. The incident left Jarrak guilty, as he was close to convincing McKoontz to not actually go through with the raid. Side effects from the attack also left McKoontz hardly speaking, using one-word sentences (unless something really got up his nose). In fear of being humiliated in public, McKoontz wore a face-mask to hide the scar.
So, the tomfoolery ended, and Chaos Theory got back to training. During this training, both men lost quite a bit of weight: Jarrak dropped down to 281 lbs (losing 15 lbs) whereas McKoontz moved down to 269 lbs (shedding 9 lbs himself). Their training paid off, as when they returned to LXW, a house-show showed what Chaos Theory were now capable of. In a Tables match against The DOORs, Jarrak was able to easily Suplex John Locke into an upright table, winning the pair the match. In their rematch, McKoontz put his new-and-improved agility to the test, running circles around both men, and Jarrak was able to add another victim to the Psycho Spike list.
Unfortunately, LXW ended, leaving Chaos Theory AND Testudo without a job. Whilst Testudo sorted out some other business, Jarrak & McKoontz were easily recruited into another fed known as FCW. Unfortunately, records of their stay in FCW were somehow lost: “broken into” actually.
So now the pair ended up in XWA. McKoontz had dropped the mask due to a stipulation, but later was able to get reconstructive surgery to repair most of the damage. Within their debut match, the pair were on top form, easily beating Blaze & Psycho, which also netted them a chance at the Tag Team gold. Sadly, they lost the following match. Surprise, surprise. Then they lost again, to the highly brutal “Bruzas”. Soon after, the pair made sparse appearances here and there, mainly for laughs and to cause mischief.
Cue the 2008 season. Will Chaos Theory be stepping up their activity and not let the past drag them down? Most certainly. Will Jarrak find out where Ms. Blackheart has her tattoo? Probably not. Will the duo be up to their old tricks?
…**** yes.
