Physical Description	At 6'0" and 293 lbs, Seamus Finnegan remains as physically dominating as he's ever been, in spite of his age. While not particularly blessed with the most solid physique you'll ever find in a wrestler, he makes up for in sheer brute force. His body is covered in scars he managed to accumulate over the years, including a 12 inch scar running down his right arm from his shoulder down, several scars on his face and forehead, as well as one scar close to his right eye, which he came within a mere inch of losing while wrestling in Japanese Death Matches over a decade ago, and a scar on his right hand, just to name a few. His body is also wracked with old injuries, and as such, he generally tends to walk to the ring with a bit of a limp, favouring his right foot. His back has also withstood much damage over the years, as well as his right knee. Usually unshaven, he sports a thick goatee as well as the usual stubble. He generally keeps his slowly greying reddish-brown hair fairly short yet scruffy. Appropriately enough for an Irishman, his eyes are green, reflecting the sheer viciousness of the man most well-known for shortening careers in the business.
Ring Attire	Seamus' ring attire generally accentuates the hardcore nature of the superstar, wearing faded and blood-stained cut-off jean shorts, black Doc Marten boots, a red plaid-flannel vest, and a black "Guinness" t-shirt. Seamus also likes to carry his shilleiglagh with him, at all times, but especially to the ring.

Biography	Seamus was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on May 6, 1968. He grew up in a predominantly Protestant neighbourhood, near the Woodstock Rd, with his older brother and three younger sisters, and his two parents. Seamus' love for wrestling began at an early age, when he attended his first wrestling match at the King's Hall, where he first saw legendary Irish superstar Eamon "The Demon" Donnelly in action. After the show, the young Seamus waited around outside for Eamon to make an appearance, and the youngster was not disappointed. An autograph and some kind words later, the course was set for Seamus' future, and a lifelong friend was made. Eamon trained Seamus for 2 years, after which Seamus spent much time wrestling all over the European circuit, where he first met up Lord Angus MacReilley, the legendary Scottish superstar. Angus took Seamus under his wing, and the two occassionally tagged up all across Europe. Seamus gleaned much knowledge of the business and sport from the Scottish legend, and took much of what he learned from Angus over to Japan, wrestling in various promotions as well as the "Death Match" circuits, while Angus took his craft to the more mainstream North American promotion, the Universal Wrestling Council (UWC). Seamus later joined Angus in the UWC, wrestling his first ever North American match in front of a sold out Busch Stadium in St. Louis, MO., on Sept. 14th, 1998, a win over the cagey veteran J.J. Megabux. Seamus had arrived, and quickly was on a tear, earning a shot at Zeus for the UWC North American title. However, Zeus no-showed their big match up, and the match was rescheduled, set to happen a week later. He also no-showed this date. One week later, and one more no-show later, Seamus was awarded the UWC North American title, which he promptly handed back to his mentor, MacReilley, who had legitimately won the title from Zeus a month earlier at the Celtic Carnage ppv, but handed back to Zeus immediately following the match, not wanting the title, but rather, sending a message. When the UWC closed its doors a short while later, Seamus and many of the other former UWC superstars were quickly signed up by the former XWF, the newly (and aptly) renamed fed known as EXILES, as was the aforementioned Zeus. Upon arrival, Seamus made it his personal mission to make Zeus' life in EXILES a living hell, and upon making his debut, he called out the man who ducked him in the UWC and challenged him to a match at the upcoming Dark Conflict ppv. Zeus accepted the match, but made a critical error in underestimating the crazed Irishman, and paid for it with a sneak attack from behind on the way to the ring for another match. Seamus succeded in injuring Zeus' knee, also giving him a concussion in the process. The two engaged in a bitter, heated war of words leading their way up to the match itself, a 38 minute blood-bath of a match, won by a barely conscious Zeus who somehow managed to reverse Seamus' finisher, knocking them both unconscious but somehow landing on top of Seamus for the pinfall. Neither man was even aware of the final outcome of the match till they were both loaded on medical gurneys and carried out of the arena to a huge standing ovation. The match itself was hailed by many writers in the industry as "match of the year". Seamus had arrived. A short time later, EXILES folded and the Chaos Wrestling Federation was born. Seamus made an immediate impact, turning heel and forming the Pogue Mahone faction, consisting of himself and the 7 foot Irish monster known only as Finn. The two were later joined by Lord Angus MacReilley's old manager, Leprechaun, and later by Angus himself. At the Canadian Chaos ppv in Toronto, Seamus captured his first major singles title, the CWF Pan American championship, from PHOENIX, with the help of his new Pogue Mahone stablemates . However, a rematch was ordered by the front office a week later, with all members of Pogue Mahone banned from ringside. A screwjob finish later, orchestrated by the administration without either wrestler's knowledge, and PHOENIX had regained the title. However, being a true sportsman, not wanting to regain his precious Pan Am title this way, PHOENIX offered Seamus the rematch, which he readily accepted, and was successful in regaining his title, a title he held for a CWF record nine months! A short time after regaining the title, the Pogue Mahone faction unified with "The Ref" Jeff Kushner's faction, the Union, thus forming the very successful Pogue Mahone Union. The two factions, however, went their seperate ways after an unsuccessful World Title shot for Jeff. Seamus had also just recently lost his Pan Am title to the demonic priest, Cardinal Bloodlust, a man to whom Seamus began to show a strange amount of respect towards. At the same time, Seamus didn't take very kindly to Jeff's turning his back on his former partner, and the two engaged in a heated (albeit brief) feud, culminating in the first ever "Round the World Tables Match". A gruelling, 45 minute display of brutality between these two former allies resulted in a victory for Kushner, but at a huge cost. Seamus, now somewhat of an ally with Bloodlust, sealed the deal at the conclusion of the match by selling his soul to the demonic priest, thus undergoing a hellish transformation into the persona of Balor of the Evil Eye, or simply "Balor" for short. Now a member of Bloodlust's "Church of Sedition", along with the former Union member Ubie (now known as "Hades Osiris"), a higher power was at work and would soon make his presence known in the CWF...The One in the Throne...the devil himself. Bloodlust was quickly removed from power upon arrival, and Balor became The One's agent of evil, destroying the career of one Chaos, and almost putting an end to the career of the CWF Hardcore Champion, Mac Steel, and claiming his soul in the process. It was only through the power of the newly reborn Bloodlust, now known as Revelation, that the good Seamus was able to break out from under his demonic shell, returning at the CWF Final Chaos ppv, helping Mac Steel overcome the threat posed by the Church of Sedition, and allowing Steel to retain his title. That very same night, the newly reborn Seamus, along with a host of others, helped Jeff Kushner to defeat the One in the Throne, send him back to the nether-world, and reclaim the CWF World Heavyweight Title. After the CWF Final Chaos ppv, Seamus disappeared from the wrestling scene, taking some much-needed time off to allow various injuries to heal. About a year later, he signed with the World Wrestling Alliance (WWA) to a lucrative, multi-year contract, and immediately made a huge impact by joining the newly reformed Triumvirate. Consisting of Seamus, Louis Bourbon aka Leviathan, and Jeff Kushner. Managed by Robert Goodlife II (now wrestling under his given name, Robert Lancaster), the three were truly a force to be reckoned with, quickly gaining noteriety for their brutal attacks on Duke Briggs, among others. Seamus and Leviathan were successful in gaining the WWA Tag Team belts, but their reign was very short lived thanks to the Regulators. During this time, Seamus was also engaged in a brutal best of 7 hardcore series with "Freakshow" Dexter Payne over the coveted title of WWA King of Extreme, which went the full limit of 7 matches, in which Seamus was ultimately victorious, but at a huge physical cost to the Irish madman. A chance encounter in Phoenix, AZ, while the WWA was in town for their "Continental Clash" ppv at Bank One Ballpark, Seamus was reunited with his teenage sweetheart, and daughter of his long-time mentor Eamon, the lovely Rebecca Donnelly. Rebecca soon joined Seamus as his new manager, and the two were completely inseperable, in more ways than one. They soon became engaged. After the WWA closed its doors due to bankruptcy and legal problems, the two were married in the Church of St. Patrick, in Downpatrick, Northern Ireland, on October 19, 2001. The two settled down back in Phoenix, Rebecca's newly adopted home, where Seamus remained off the road, allowing his various injuries to further heal. He briefly contemplated a return with the announcement of the NAWA reunion tour, but as things fell apart, he officially announced his retirement on May 1st, 2002. However, as wrestling fans are well aware, retirements in pro wrestling are very rarely final. The itch returns, an itch that can only be scratched by returning to the ring. Seamus' itch has returned...he will return...the CSWA will never be the same!				. , .
Gimmick	Seamus' tends to show alot of wreckless abandon both in and out of the ring. Showing complete disregard for his opponant's bodies and especially his own, many consider him an insane, drunken Irish lunatic...which would all pretty much sum him right up to a "T"!
