Gimmick: A charismatic blue collar wrestler who loves a fight and loves whisky and hot women just as much, if not a little more. He's a partyer and former stand up comedian with a history for a prankster of sorts. He also works at the Ford Center Factory in Detroit when he's not wrestling.
Entrance Music: "Cave" by Ted Nugent
Entrance Description: He appears from one of the side exits, wearing a black leather biker jacket, black sunglasses and Miller Lite skullcap. Sometimes carrying a weapon (alternates between a Singapore Cane and Steel Chair) in hand, and always has a burning cigarette in his mouth. He'll take a moment to acknowledge the fans and put his cigarette out before going to the ring, greeting a few fans. He'll even taunt his opponent(s) along the way if he's coming out second to someone he dislikes.
Ring Attire: Old school desert storm camouflage pants, an extra large NFL Detroit Lions or NHL Detroit Red Wings jersey with white tank top underneath, black wrist bands, and a pair of short black wrestling boots.
Normal Attire: Anywhere from denim blue jeans and t-shirt of one of his favorite metal bands to more formal wear at important events and some pay per views.
Wrestling Style: 8 Mile Wrestling - His name for a hybrid style where one uses a limited amount of Technical Wrestling, and relies more on their Brawling and Acrobatic skills. This style also encourages using various parts of the ring as a weapon when/if possible. Given to more hardcore environments, he’ll use any and all weapons to disposal in deadly and innovative ways. Ring Persona: Wily, Crafty and Unpredictable in mindset. Rowdy and Arrogant in his attitude, and using that to get under his opponent’s skin so they’ll be more likely to make a mistake he can take advantage of. Signature Taunt: Good ol’ fashion flipping them the bird, using various insults, eye rolls and crotch chops
