He is considered one of, if not the top striker in the game today. His working style is a mix of stiff strikes such as sharp elbows, knees, chops and kicks mixed with a hybrid catch as catch can style. Having trained himself since a boy in Pencak Silat and kickboxing, he uses his natural strength to manipulate his opponents body parts via a variety of submission holds in order to find an opening for one of his deadly strikes. He works snug and fast but knows how to protect his opponents, with most of the damage actually being inflicted upon himself. Originally he had much more power based move set but an injury forced him to change his style and drop a load of weight. He tries to avoid planning a match out ahead of time, preferring to call spots on the fly and allow matches to build a natural tension.

When not in the ring, he dresses in expensive suits and wines and dines with high society but he trains himself in a dimply lit, wrong side of the tracks gym. All he desires is competition and is a sportsman up until the bell rings, then he’ll tear your head off. Terrifyingly aggressive to the point that the ref often has to hold him back from doing more damage to his opponent and indeed himself. He does not care for the fans or the gold of his chosen promotion, instead only caring about hurting people and earning money from his matches. Gethin appears hyper focused to the point of tunnel vision during his matches, showing very little emotion apart from determination. His ring gear consists of a pair of standard trunks with a dragon emblem on the front left, black boots and kick pads. Black wrist tape on his right hand a taped up left hand, elbow pad, taped shoulder as well as a gumshield. His promo style is very reminiscent of Jake Roberts, he does not raise his voice and is well versed with a large vocabulary. He possesses a dark charisma and perfect psychology. [b]|[u]Face or Heel [/u]|[/b] » Heel [b]|[u]Backstage Rep [/u]|[/b] » Behind the scenes, Gethin is a generally reserved individual much like his character. He speaks softly but with purpose and is a nice enough guy to be around. That said, in the macho world of pro wrestling, many are weary of Gethin due to the fact he is in fact a bisexual man. This does put some people off of working with him as does the fact that his in ring in style is quite dangerous. At first Gethin tried to stress that he was bi and that even though he liked men, he also appreciated a woman just as much; this ran even to the point that he would make sure his colleague's saw him with girls. Eventually though, he began to accept that he wasn't always going to fit in, so he stopped trying to impress and just began to be himself. Many adore watching Gethin work as compared to many on the roster, his brutal style adds a sense of legitimacy to the proceedings and gives everything that big fight feel. He has often been called sick because of how real he makes everything look, specifically his headbutt and finger snap moves. In spite of this dangerous working style, Gethin is well known for taking care of himself and several wrestlers often come to him to discuss dieting and work out routines. He got his start on the British indy scene before making his way over to Japan where he properly made his name and developed the Brutal Artist character. Gethin arrived in AWE just under two years ago and has been slowly making his way up the card. Recently he won his first AWE title.

A queen of promo’s (in her own mind at least), she is just waiting for the day she can unleash her verbiage on the world. She knows how to use her feminine wiles to twist men around her finger and get women to despise her. Although not a wrestler, she is in great shape and isn’t adverse to taking a few bumps for the sake of the business she loves. [b]|[u]Reason for being here [/u]|[/b] » Diana has always been enamoured with her wrestling business ever since she was a little girl. She did everything she could to get into the business in some way, shape or form and is overjoyed that she now works for the biggest wrestling promotion on the planet. That said, she hopes now that she’s got a bit of experience under her belt that the bosses will see fit to give her a shot in the limelight. [b]|[u]Looks & Style [/u]|[/b] » In character, Diana portrays the character of an intellectual and cunning business woman looking to invest in the future of wrestling by managing its top stars. As such, she is always dressed to impress in business dresses and pencil skirts that show off her fine form. Backstage, Suzy dresses comfortably in leggings and AWE merchandise.

[b]|[u]Rep at AWE [/u]|[/b] » Suzy is someone who made her bones on the independent scene. Originally getting into the business as a bikini glad ring girl used to advertise shitty bingo hall shows, she eventually got to be a ring announcer. Eventually she was picked up by Roddy and the AWE but was dumped in developmental. She has been announcing during the developmental events and at house shows but is really looking to become a manager. She feels that in todays current product, being a manager is a lost art and she wants to bring it back. Suzy does not just want to manage one person, she wants a cadre of superstars under her banner ala Bobby Heenan. She is well liked backstage as she is incredibly enthusiastic and always willing to learn, though she does tend to have an attitude in regards to authority as she does not like being told that she can’t do something.

He loves wrestling and wants to help make the fans love it just as much as he does. He is a passionate storyteller with an incredible eye for detail. A wrestler may have a story or a match ready but a little tweak from JP can turn a match from a 4 to a 5 star. He’s a little manic and hyper but its all part of his enthusiasm. [b]|[u]Reason for being here [/u]|[/b] » To help AWE last beyond it’s years. [b]|[u]Looks & Style [/u]|[/b] » JP is a fan first and foremost so walking around in AWE merchandise is nothing new to him, though for important meetings he does get dressed up. Most of the time he can be seen running around backstage to his own soundtrack as he always has his headphones on, carrying an energy drink and a scrap of paper or napkin with his latest brain child on. [b]|[u]Personality Traits [/u]|[/b] » He is enthusiastic and passionate about the business, the wrestlers and the stories that need to be told. JP likes to spout of as many ideas as he can, whenever he can, throwing a hundred things at the wall hoping one sticks. He tends to describe himself as someone whose brains runs faster than his mouth. [b]|[u]Favorite wrestler [/u]|[/b] » Morgana [b]|[u]Rep at AWE [/u]|[/b] » JP was born with ADHD and suffered greatly as a child. His hyperactivity and constant ramblings left his parents a bit unsure of what to do with him. Once he was diagnosed, life got a little better. He began taken medication and found an outlet with sports, especially wrestling. He was always a fan of AWE with his favourite being the Ghost Ryder. He tried his hand at collegiate wrestling whilst studying for a journalist degree. Despite his own impressive size and athletic skill, JP knew he couldn’t continue sports with his medical issues, so he buckled down for his studies. He was working for a sport blog when Kevin approached him about signing on to AWE…maybe dreams do come true after all.
