» Wade Lewis Palmer

[b]|[u]Hails From     [/u]|[/b] 
» Robbinsdale, Minnesota
» June 28th, 1981  (33)

[b]|[u]Job at AWE     [/u]|[/b]
» Leader commentator at desk, host of AWE After Hours, eventual producer of commentating

[b]|[u]Skills     [/u]|[/b]
» Boundless wrestling knowledge, buttery smooth voice, pop-culture references galore, can keep his partners on track 

[b]|[u]Reason for being here     [/u]|[/b]
» Wade is passionate about wrestling. He loves it, and he loves being that close to the action; even if he himself can’t wrestle due to injuries sustained when he was younger. He never wants to let this job go.

[b]|[u]Looks & Style     [/u]|[/b]
» Wade dresses pretty professionally when he’s out at the desk, but is a bit more lax when off-screen and backstage, often times going so far as to wear the merchandise the company produces. Dude, he’s a fucking mark. 

[b]|[u]Personality Traits     [/u]|[/b]
» Wade’s a bit of a geek, there’s no way around it. From the way he weaves pop-culture references into his commentating, to the way he spends almost all of his free time watching wrestling tapes and absorbing as much of the sport as he can, not just AWe, he’s a geek. Through and through.

Wade has an almost childlike adoration for the sport and its performers, it’s no secret that when he was younger it was his goal to become one of the greatest wrestlers of all time; that dream unfortunately fell through after an injury sustained while working one of his first matches after a boot camp. Wade had a severe concussion that made it simple to him and doctors: his body was not cut out for this job.

So he chased the next best thing: commentating. 

This is both a good and a bad thing; while it robbed a young man, aged 17 at the time of the incident of his dream, it gifted the wrestling world one of the most passionate and energetic commentators of all time. Wade Palmer’s voice is almost irreplaceable at the desk alongside his two newer partners.

Wade has a tendency to bring snacks to the commentating desk, and is almost constantly drinking water to keep his voice from giving out.

[b]|[u]Rep at AWE    [/u]|[/b]
» Wade traveled the world at the tender age of 18, calling matches everywhere from the bingo halls and high school around the American indie scene, to the main event of the Tokyo Dome. He has a mind and a knack for this business like none other, and it has only built and built throughout his adventures.

He found a permanent home at AWE almost five years ago, where he took over the desk from a team of older commentators who were ready for retirement. Disregarding the occasional company of a wrestler, Wade Palmer called the shows solo for [i]years[/i], until Roddy came to him with a proposition: transitioning into a backstage role, where his knowledge for the business could be utilized properly: the director of talent relations, and a powerful level of control in the booking of the company.

However, like all good things, this comes with a catch: Wade has to train his replacements, two men he was allowed to handpick. For just over a year, Wade has been calling matches not alone, but with two people he is honored to call his co workers, and proud to call his friends.

When Wade feels the pair is ready to take over for him, he’ll transition to a backstage role, though he’ll always be with them in spirit and… well, in their ear pieces. He isn’t going to let them tarnish what he’s built, after all!

Generally speaking, Wade is well liked and respected for his berth of knowledge, and is often looked to for tips to improve, despite not being a wrestler himself.
