Entrance Description:
All the lights go out and white and pink pastel lights go crazy throughout the arena as the words �No on the corner have swagger like us� go through the speakers. The crowd reaches a loud boo as white smoke engulfs the stage and it hovers maliciously. The man known as The Legend appears on the stage and the smoke rises to surround him. He stands with his arms to his side, one arm holding his trademark Louis Vuitton chainsaw, and his head facing the ground. His mouth is covered by a black bandana as the white and pink pastel colored lights continue to flash and rotate behind him. The Legend snaps his head up and you can see a pair of shades covering his eyes. The shades turn from a black color to a bright pink color and he looks around as the fans boo him as loud as ever He starts to make his way down the entrance ramp, slowly, and the first verse of the song starts to play.. The Legend reaches the bottom of the entrance ramp and looks around. Fans boo him and shout things at him but you can feel The Legend�s eyes glare at all of them through his shades. He makes his way to the steel steps and gets up them quickly and walks along the apron. He places his foot on the second rope and gets on the turnbuckle ala The Rock. He looks around and holds up the LV chainsaw as the crowd boos at a fever pitch. He moves the bandana from around his mouth to his neck and his devilish smirk can be seen clearly. Legend shifts his weight and sits atop the turnbuckle and his shades turn from a pink color back to the black color they were initially. He throws the bandana and his shades at the referee and the ref puts the bandana in his pocket and gives the shades to the timekeeper. The Legend leans back a bit, hanging the chainsaw between his legs, as he waits for the match to begin.
Ring Attire: The Legend has on black spat shorts, with a pink �L� in an angelic font on the right side of his tights. The other side of his tights has two white stripes going horizontally across his thigh. On his arms are black elbow pads and black taped gloves. His boots are black, with the words �Entity� going down them vertically in a pink.
Normal Attire: Anything stylish. One thing about The Legend is that he is one of the most well dressed, stylish people on the face of the Earth.
Wrestling Style: Legend has altered his wrestling style to be quicker and more agile. He has eliminated many of his power wrestling moves from his repertoire to make the match faster paced so he can dominate the match early to defeat his opponent. He still uses some power moves but mainly Legend uses quick strikes, takedowns, and submissions to win matches. An altered style is exactly what Legend needed to prove his prowess after coming back from retirement.
Ring Persona: The Legend loves to play mind games. He will always try and work a situation to his advantage, even if it is at his disadvantage.
Signature Taunt: After the match (if he wins), he'll take the bandana he gave to the ref, wipe his forehead and throw it on his downed opponent.

History:
Upon entering The Legend�s initial federation, Blazenwing Wrestling Federation, Legend lost his first match against another BWF rookie, Kimek. This infuriated The Legend to the point that he became obsessed with facing Kimek again. David Blazenwing then made Legend a challenge... if he could go an entire month without losing a match, he would get his rematch. But if he lost just one match... he would NEVER face Kimek again in a BWF ring! Legend accepted and made it all the way, defeating Tim Murphy via forfeit in the last match at Vertigo 2005 to capture the Hardcore Championship AND his future shot at Kimek!
The Legend battled for his Hardcore title over the months leading up to his Triple-Tier Cage Match against Kimek at Over the Edge. He defeated Brandon Beatdown in an extremely one-sided contest at Retribution, then lost the Hardcore title for the last time to Brian Cade shortly before the PPV. Legend entered OTE and waged war in an epic confrontation against Kimek, but in the end, it was interference from Havok's Captain Marticus that would swing the tides in Legend's favor enough for him to win the match.
With Kimek out of the way, The Legend was finally free to set his sights on the one thing he wanted more than revenge... the World Heavyweight Championship. Legend spent the month of October battling the likes of Rob Torborg, Mark McNasty and more, all to set himself in line for a shot at the gold. He did so and joined Adriana Garcia, Bam, McNasty and World Champion Torborg in the first-ever Brutal Breakthrough Match, which saw The Legend resort to a chair shot off the top of a ladder on Torborg, leading to the final elimination and The Legend's capture of the World Heavyweight Championship!
The Legend got what he wanted, and it was not time to rub it in everyone�s faces the only way he knows how� The Legend way. He showed the likes of Mark McNasty and countless others how to be a Legend, until a former friend and now long time foe Captain Marticus wanted a shot at what Legend had. It was WrestleFest III when Captain Marticus took Legend�s World Heavyweight Championship, pinning Mark McNasty, and ending Legend�s 62 day reign, one day short of beating the record.
But Legend was not done there. He wanted revenge on who he thought screwed him out of the World Heavyweight Championship; Chamelion, the special guest referee for the match. The two finally faced off at Broken Resolutions, Legend ready to end the epic undefeated streak of Chamelion�s. Unfortunately, he lost that match, but his momentum never left him.
Happenstance proved to be a defining moment in Legend�s career, defeating David Blazenwing in an Ultimate Submission match, after taunting David with kidnapping his wife and torturing her in his own home. An old rival, Brandon Beatdown, attacked Legend after his match with David, thusly sparking the new team of The Legend and Mike Adams � Requiem Ablaze � to take on Brandon Beatdown and Kirlia Gardevoir. Legend wrote the ending to Brandon�s career as he hit a Requiem to him on a trashcan with Kirlia in it! This put Requiem Ablaze on notice, as the next week on Havok, they faced the tag team champions Randall Moran and Phoenix. Requiem Ablaze rose to the heights of champion material, etching them in history as dominant tag champions.
However, their reign would end short as David Blazenwing and Captain Marticus would end their 20 day reign at Tainted Twilight in a TLC match. Even though Requiem Ablaze lost, they still dominated most of the match, only to lose with the interference of Ghost (who was never seen again).
This, however, sparked a feud of the century between The Legend and The Executioner. The Legend challenged Exie to a match at WrestleFest IV, saying he would �end his beloved streak�. Exie accepted, and continued to tease Legend, even calling commentary on the aforementioned TLC match. Legend, however, had plans for Exie� and the world.
Rolling around was Beta Test 2006. The Legend�s debut event. He vowed he would not lose, to Eliminator or anyone else. Eliminator, however, vacated the championship, leaving The Legend and Mark McNasty to face off in the main event for the � then � BWF Heavyweight Championship. Earlier in the night, however, The Legend would announce he was the new president of the BWF, and he thusly fired David Blazenwing, his rival. Legend was then set on beating Mark for the championship. However, a then fired Exie came out and announced he was the special referee in the match, much to the dismay to Legend. The Legend had the match won, but due to interference by David Blazenwing, Mark McNasty walked out of Beta Test the champion.
When the BWF came back to fruition, it was time for WrestleFest IV where Legend faced his biggest challenge yet, The Executioner. These two had an intense match, but in the end it was Legend forcing Exie to pass out to his signature Tragedy Clutch to secure his first WrestleFest win and Exie�s first WrestleFest loss.
But that wasn�t enough for The Legend. He wanted to prove that he was the greatest wrestler BWF has ever seen. He entered the Elimination Chamber match at Survival of the Sickest, in which The Executioner, Casey Campbell, Eden Turner, Chris Roman, and Cody Clark were apart of. In the end, Legend�s devastating Requiem ended Cody�s run at the BWF Champion, crowning Legend the BWF Champion for the first time in his career.
Legend, along with Cody Clark, had grown tired of BWF�s politics and decided to leave. In his last BWF match ever, The Legend defeated AJ Donavon to retain the BWF Championship but was named the first eWo Champion in the process.
Legend entered Epic Wrestling Organization as champion. He had the championship since January and had no intentions of losing it, especially to his first eWo opponent, the last LWA Champion Xaria Linette. After going through her, he was faced with a challenge at eWo�s first PPV: Hell & Back. He was to face Czecher, C.M. Vyrus, and James Dean for his eWo Championship. Even with some unexpected motivation from The Executioner, Legend�s 117 day streak as champion was brought to an end as Czecher pinned James Dean to become the new eWo Champion.
Legend will continue his run to get back his eWo Championship� no matter what it takes.
The stage was set: Legend would face Czecher at Body Count to try and regain his eWo Championship. The match was intense, even causing Legend to throw Czecher into the front row with a fallaway slam and in the end, Legend's new finisher the Red Lottery was enough to regain his beloved eWo Championship. His next victim? The 2007 Body Count Rumble Winner... Erin Jacobs.
In the weeks leading up to Supremacy, Erin and Legend did everything imaginable to get the upper hand on each other. From tequila bottle shots to Legend resorting to throwing powder in Erin's face, they wanted to tear each other apart.
Finally, the day came. Supremacy was upon them both and while Erin was calm about this match, Legend was like a savage beast. He wanted blood and preferably Erin's blood. The two met in the ring and the action went back and forth with Erin hitting Legend with moonsaults and springboard cutters. During the match, Erin caused Legend's nose to become broken but that didn't stop the current eWo champion. He came back with rough attacks and even hitting a vicious Red Lottery on the announcers table. Erin got Legend knocked down in the ring and was attempting to put him away with the Quickiller. Much to Erin's surprise, Legend got up and showed an amazing vertical leap and countered it to a top rope Requiem that put them both through the ring. The special guest referee, Cody Clark, had no choice but to count the three as Legend emerged from the rubble still the ruler of the eWo kingdom.
After the dust settled with Erin Jacobs, The Legend was searching for someone to face. He claimed that he has eliminated everyone in eWo and now he was going on Manifest Entity. He vowed to eliminate everyone in eWo so the company was his to control. Lawrence Jarvis appeared and demanded that he face Legend, since he beat Reno Drake at Supremacy. Legend didn�t mind because he�d already beaten Lawrence before so he figured he could do it again. During this time, The Legend did the unthinkable and aligned himself with his worst enemy: eWo General Manager The Executioner. The two, now calling themselves Manifest Entity, vowed to get power in eWo and run things their way.
Between all of this, The Legend happened to snap mentally when Xaria Linette attacked him one week with a chair, further injuring his already broken nose. The next week, in a tag match, The Legend took matters into his own hands. After the match was over, The Legend knocked Xaria�s then boyfriend AJ Donavon out and caused him to have a concussion. This left innocent Xaria by herself. What happened next was too graphic for some. Legend proceeded to force Xaria to bleed profusely, even resorting to requieming her through both announcers� tables. Legend thought this was the end of Xaria Linette and he seemed to be at peace.
The match was set for License to Thrill and once the two got in the ring, everything was crazy. The Executioner accompanied him to the ring, since Reno Drake accompanied Lawrence Jarvis to the ring. Exie and Reno brawled to the back and Alexis attacked The Legend�s wife, Lisa, but this didn�t stop The Legend from retaining his eWo championship yet again.
After the match, the lights went out and a figure appeared at the top of the entrance. Throughout the night, there was speculation that this hooded figure was Xaria Linette. No one believed it except for one person: The Legend. Legend called this mysterious person to the ring and the lights went out again and surrounding him were six glitter steel chairs. This confirmed what he had known from earlier in the night and Xaria proceeded to attack him, causing him to bleed. Knowing this feud, the match was made at Guilty As Charged for a Triple Threat Match between Alexis Sykes, Xaria Linette, and The Legend.
Going into Guilty As Charged, the three battled for the upper hand. One week Legend would have the upper hand, another Alexis, and another Xaria. The match finally came and through the strong efforts by Alexis and Xaria, The Legend once again emerged as the eWo champion, making history in the process. He is not only the only eWo champion to break a 100 day reign but he is also the only person to do it twice.
The Violence after Guilty As Charged saw a match between Alexis Sykes and Xaria Linette and the winner got to face The Legend at the next Violence for the eWo championship. Alexis walked away the winner and after Legend got his victory over Czecher, she charged the ring and sent a strong message to Legend... through a table. She then announced that it would be an ultimate tables match for the eWo championship!
Leading up to The New Black, Frank Murdoch won a number one contenders match to make him Legend's opponent at The New Black. Alexis Sykes didn't like this and tried her all to get the eWo title off Legend, even making a eWo Ultimate Tables match for Violence. Legend defeated her in that but Alexis wasn't done. She decided to make herself the special referee in the eWo title match. All in all, Legend's 126 day reign ended when Frank Murdoch became the first man to pin Legend in eWo and becoming the NEW eWo champion.
eWo closed shortly after Legend's title reign ended and with that, Legend needed a place to go. He was the hottest free agent in professional wrestling until he found Millennium Wrestling Alliance. He came in and continued Manifest Entity, a federation wide domination, and as Gabriel Gambino, Olivia K., and Heartless McMeanypants found out... The Legend meant business. So much business that he defeated those three in a three week tournament for the vacant Millennium Championship. It didn't take too long for Legend to have gold around his waist once again.
The Legend, in later weeks at MWA, was having a difficult time showcasing Manifest Entity. He participated in a Fatal Four Way match which featured a major target of his: MWA World Champion Kacy Knight. Unfortunately, The Legend was not the victor of that match which gave Kacy a one up on him that he was trying to avoid. Legend then participated in a Millennium X match which consisted of Jackie Sweets, CJ Osbourne, and Heartless for his Millennium Championship. In the end, Jackie Sweets ended up dethroning Legend which caused him to become quite irate, even threatening to quit MWA.
And so it happened.
In a fit of rage and 'no creative direction', The Legend left MWA on bad terms. Whether or not he will return is still in the air. Shortly after he left MWA, he received a call from a good friend of his. Cody Clark. He informed him that his old stomping grounds, eWo, was returning.
It feels good to be home.
But it wouldn't be such a welcome homecoming. A tournament was announced to name all three champions in eWo in one night and Legend was all for it. His first opponent was the young Eric Banks who he defeated easily. The Legend then drew a bye straight to the finals and watched as Kyle Cross and AJ Donavon made it directly to the finals. So the stage was set. It was the long awaited confrontation of Kyle Cross and The Legend, with AJ Donavon also in the triple threat. At the end, it was Kyle Cross who forced the Legend to pass out and capture the eWo championship.
The Legend would not be too pleased with the outcome and vowed to take back what was rightfully his: the eWo championship. He defeated AJ Donavon to gain him access to a number one contendership for the eWo championship. That didn�t please Legend enough. In a brawl between The Legend and Kyle Cross, Legend threw Kyle into the electrical equipment and put Kyle Cross out of action for a couple weeks. This sparked something in the mind of Cody Clark who made the match at There Will Be Blood an electrified barbed wire ropes match! The match was then made: The Legend vs. Kyle Cross in Kyle�s domain. When it all came down to it, Legend put up one hell of a fight, but it was Kyle Cross who would once again walk out with the eWo championship.
And this pissed Legend off.
Legend wanted yet another rematch with Kyle Cross. He would tell everyone that the third time was the charm and that Kyle couldn�t stop him now. Legend stated that the war was on and no one could stop him. Enter Adriana Garcia-Allan, one of the General Managers, who twisted Legend�s world around. She told him he would not get a shot at the eWo championship unless he pinned Kyle Cross� shoulders to the mat. Legend agreed, being confident, but Jacob Seldon would put his two cents in. He wanted a shot at Kyle Cross, due to the fact that he won the Money In The Bank match at There Will Be Blood. So the War Games match was set. It would be Team Legend vs. Team Cross. People were wanting to be a part of this major main event and everyone was picking a side. Jacob Seldon, Alexis Sykes, and Jack Darling sided with Legend and Scott Free, Xaria Linette, and Nick Toretto sided with Kyle Cross.
And then he appeared.
At Hell and Back, Cody Clark bumped into Legend backstage and proposed an offer to him. If Legend could pin Kyle�s shoulders to the mat he would become the eWo champion. If he couldn�t� he would not get an eWo championship match for a full year! Legend quickly accepted and walked into the War Games match with an extra boost of confidence. The War Games match was brutal indeed and, in the end, Kyle Cross would fall to The Legend and like he said he would� he defeated Kyle Cross and became a three time eWo champion.

His first opponent was the young Eric Banks who he defeated easily. The Legend then drew a bye straight to the finals and watched as Kyle Cross and AJ Donavon made it directly to the finals. So the stage was set. It was the long awaited confrontation of Kyle Cross and The Legend, with AJ Donavon also in the triple threat. At the end, it was Kyle Cross who forced the Legend to pass out and capture the eWo championship.
The Legend would not be too pleased with the outcome and vowed to take back what was rightfully his: the eWo championship. He defeated AJ Donavon to gain him access to a number one contendership for the eWo championship. That didn�t please Legend enough. In a brawl between The Legend and Kyle Cross, Legend threw Kyle into the electrical equipment and put Kyle Cross out of action for a couple weeks. This sparked something in the mind of Cody Clark who made the match at There Will Be Blood an electrified barbed wire ropes match! The match was then made: The Legend vs. Kyle Cross in Kyle�s domain. When it all came down to it, Legend put up one hell of a fight, but it was Kyle Cross who would once again walk out with the eWo championship.
And this pissed Legend off.
Legend wanted yet another rematch with Kyle Cross. He would tell everyone that the third time was the charm and that Kyle couldn�t stop him now. Legend stated that the war was on and no one could stop him. Enter Adriana Garcia-Allan, one of the General Managers, who twisted Legend�s world around. She told him he would not get a shot at the eWo championship unless he pinned Kyle Cross� shoulders to the mat. Legend agreed, being confident, but Jacob Seldon would put his two cents in. He wanted a shot at Kyle Cross, due to the fact that he won the Money In The Bank match at There Will Be Blood. So the War Games match was set. It would be Team Legend vs. Team Cross. People were wanting to be a part of this major main event and everyone was picking a side. Jacob Seldon, Alexis Sykes, and Jack Darling sided with Legend and Scott Free, Xaria Linette, and Nick Toretto sided with Kyle Cross.
And then he appeared.
At Hell and Back, Cody Clark bumped into Legend backstage and proposed an offer to him. If Legend could pin Kyle�s shoulders to the mat he would become the eWo champion. If he couldn�t� he would not get an eWo championship match for a full year! Legend quickly accepted and walked into the War Games match with an extra boost of confidence. The War Games match was brutal indeed and, in the end, Kyle Cross would fall to The Legend and like he said he would� he defeated Kyle Cross and became a three time eWo champion.
After he won the championship from Kyle Cross, Legend feuded with Nick Toretto, whom he beat at the Body Count PPV. However, at BodyCount, there was a new winner of the tournament who would prove to be some difficulty for The Legend: Jack Darling. Leading up to Supremacy II, Jack Darling swore he would being in a Paradigm Shift into eWo and rid it of the current Manifest Entity that The Legend had going. At Supremacy II, it took everything Jack Darling had to put away The Legend and defeat him for the eWo championship, ending The Legend�s 63 day reign as champion.
Manifest Entity was complete.
On the edition of Violence after Supremacy II, The Legend had stated that he was on the �Final Cut� and he would retire from wrestling at License To Thrill. Kelly Godless, however, wasn�t going to let Legend end his career without him beating him first. So, back and forth, The Legend and Kelly Godless would take things personal. First, Godless went into Legend�s home and burned his eWo Hall of Fame plaque that he received at Supremacy II. Then Legend went and saw Kelly�s mother in prison and asked her if she �Believed in God� and that he would crucify her son and make an example out of him. However, Godless went and took things a little too far. Godless attacked one of the most important people in Legend�s life: his sister. Godless brutalized her and her boyfriend to the point where Legend simply snapped, attacking everyone in his path and vowing that, at License To Thrill, Legend would commit murder on Kelly Godless.
However, things weren�t as they seemed.
Cody Clark, the active Chairman of eWo, went after Godless to confront him on what he did. Cody Clark and Godless never appeared in Japan, where License To Thrill was taking place, and a press release stated that if Cody Clark was not at LTT that a new Chairman would be announced. Everyone was ready for the match dubbed �God vs. Godless� and so The Legend came out to tell everyone that he WAS retiring from wrestling but from now on, you can call him the new Chairman of eWo. Everyone in the arena was shocked and everyone knew eWo, which Legend dubbed �Entity Wrestling Organization� would never be the same.
