RING ENTRANCE: Lights flash then dim, and "Wherein Lies Continue" by Slipknot fills the speakers. The lights all go out and only a spotlight shines on Joe, who comes to the ring without any friendly movements or acknowledgment of the fans, who are booing him. "Thou Shalt Not...Kill your fathers - destroy another life, Question everything we clung to for years, Live forever - design a better death, Confuse a liar with a savior from fear." He climbs up to the turnbuckle, puts his hands in a clasp above his head and brings them down, still clasped, to chest-level. "The ending's the same, The world will not change, The answer is clear...Annihilation" He climbs down, glares at the audience and warms up for his match.
RING ATTIRE: He wears dark blue tights with black lines down the sides, and they're more like shorts in the fact they stop just before his kneecaps. He wears elbow pads and knee pads, and dark black boots.
HISTORY: Joe Cool started out as a backyard wrestler. He was only there for a short time, til he was taken under the wing of wrestling great, Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka. He was trained and then sent off on his own. He since then has wrestled in Japan, and the independants before reaching BTW(Big Time Wrestling). In the BTW he was very successful, and held many titles. After feeling that he could do all he did in BTW, he quit the active roster. He still maintained a role as a magazine writer, until one day the position of president was placed on him by the former prez Nightstalker. Joe then gave up the president position and went back to an active wrestling career.
He then went to UWFX. He won gold his very first match, but backstage politics quickly sent him on his way. Afterwards, using his experience from running BTW, he opened up ICW(International Championship Wrestling) where he was president. He also competed on a per-appearance contract with LOW(Lights Out Wrestling). ICW stayed open for two years before having to close.
Joe went to MWF(Meteora Wrestling Federation) and after earning some success as it's World Heavyweight Champion, MWF folded and Joe took a 5 month hiatus. With no feds in sight he stayed out of the limelight until GI told him about ASW(All Star Wrestling). Joe went undefeated in ASW, except for one battle royal loss. He left due to issues with the staff. He moved to MWA(Millenium Wrestling Alliance) and had a brief run before it closed. He tried to run a company of his own in Pride Wrestling, but it closed due to lack of interest.
Joe's doctor told him that with his neck getting as bad as it is he'll need to retire soon. To at least co-operate with his doctors, Joe reduced his high-flying skills, in exchange for a more power based style, while still keeping his techincal skills. He retired the One Step Closer, which was a shooting star press into a frog splash.
After a small period in hiatus, Joe came back bigger than ever, along with ICW, as it re-opened for montly shows with the first of many, ICW: The Rebirth. After a successful run of shows Joe decided he has grown tired of running a wrestling organization, and wanted to relax. So ICW closed.
Joe took the opportunity to sign up with UWF. However, briefly into his run Joe suffered severe damage to his neck as the result of a simple bump. After two years of surgery, rehabilitation and training, Joe has a surgically repaired neck and is looking to make one last run before calling it quits. He signed up with the OWF after a two year absence to try and climb to the top. So far he has held their version of the hardcore title, winning it and losing it twice in one night and is the former OWF Tears Champion, which is one half of the tag team titles with partner Moxie Roxie. He's also had a startling change in demeanor, promising to purify the OWF of anyone who isn't good enough and declaring Joe Cool to be dead. He now goes by JC.
JC's war through the OWF has taken him down a road that the old Joe Cool would never have traveled. After quickly turning on protege Jared Wave, he ditched his former manager Josh and beat up former protege Jeremy Daniels. He then proceed to take out a number of OWF wrestlers: Jared Wave, Skotty Surph, Moxie Roxie, Vacant, Jason Chase, Greg Jackson and most recently, the president of OWF, Chase Johnson. He's also once again one half of the tag team champions, with partner Trent Steel, as a member of The Rogues. It seems as though JC's mission to purify OWF is nearly at it's conclusion. Can he be stopped?
