Welcome to the FWA
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Solomon Graham
WRESTLER’S HEIGHT - 6’2”
WRESTLER’S WEIGHT - 220 lbs
HOMETOWN - Scarborough, Ontario, Canada
BILLED FROM - Scarborough, Ontario, Canada
ALIGNMENT (Must be Babyface or Heel. I will allow Tweeners, so long as you give an indication of which way they’re leaning. I.E., Tweener, face-leaning) - Babyface
DESCRIPTION OF GIMMICK - Hmm… can this really be described as a gimmick? He comes from a long line of legit badasses in Pro Wrestling (3 generations, to be exact). He is also part of the LGBT+ community (he has a hard time determining whether he’s pan or bi) as well as having Autism (and by extension, struggles with severe anxiety and depression). No gimmick could ever beat that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Entrance Info
THEME SONG (Though, keep in mind, it’ll only be used during PPV’s or Supershows) - “Skeleton Key” by Calisus
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION -
“Skeleton Key” plays over the PA system and we hear these words open the song...
"In another life, another place... there was a shadow without a face.
I could see... the survivors, were few...
Memories to which I cling, things I do and songs I sing...
They all... bring me back, to you..."
Then, after the intro ends and we hit the chorus, out from the curtain comes Solomon Graham, to nothing but cheers and applause. We see that Solomon has a roll of white hockey tape in his left hand, but soon he transfers the roll of tape to the other hand, before slowly raising it high in the air (to a massive pop, of course). He puts his hands on his hips before smirking and shaking his head in disbelief. After all he’s been through, all the grief and turmoil, and especially the devastating losses… the fans remain loyal to him. He then proceeds to take a strip of tape from the roll and wrap his right wrist up in tape.
::Ring Announcer::
"And the opponent, from Scarborough, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 220 lbs, he is the owner of the Fullmetal Wrestling Alliance... "The King Of The Juniors" SOLOMON!!! GRAAAHAM!!!!"
After wrapping it in about five layers of tape, he turns it diagonally and proceeds to also wrap his knuckles in tape as well, all the while slowly and methodically walking towards the ring. He then bites the tape in two, wrapping the strip still connected to the roll back on and wrapping the strip attached to him around the knuckle, before driving his right hand directly into his open left hand and walking to the ring, on the way stopping to play to the fans, letting them know that they are “ENTIRELY too quiet!!” before pumping them up.
Once we hear some noise from them, he yells once again: “C’MON, I CAN’T FUCKIN’ HEAR YA!!!!” at which point the roof blows off the place. He then climbs the ring steps onto the apron, before wiping his feet. He then steps into the ring, gets into his corner and stares across at his opponent.

WRESTLER’S REAL LIFE INFORMATION (Keep in mind that this section is completely optional)
REAL NAME - Solomon Graham
TRAINER/WRESTLING SCHOOL - Graham Family Wrestling Academy
REAL ATTITUDE BTS
In The Locker Room: He’s the boss, so he’s usually brutally honest, but he’s also very fair and usually encourages the wrestlers to do their best.
Towards Management: I mean… he is one of the Co-Owners, so that technically makes him management. But, as with the locker room, he is brutally honest.
In regards to winning and losing: He doesn’t care as long as he’s paid at the end of the night (And as long as he’s not made to do phony shit).
Will they shoot on their opponent in the ring?: Not unless he’s shot on first, for whatever reason.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER INFORMATION (This section is a free for all where you can give anything from taunts your wrestler does to any information about the wrestler themself. One thing I ask is that you put them down in bulletpoint form. Kinda like how I have the Moveset section)
-Chose the Low Blow as his finisher because he feels it will help ingrain in the minds of the fans that he is a Heel and will help distinguish him from other heels on the roster.
-He feels that unlike him, heels today don’t really know how to properly be heels (aside from a select few, of course)
-He is the owner of the Fullmetal Wrestling Alliance and will never let anyone forget it.
-He is a big fan of certain feds in the XHF Network (NLW, SCCW, J-ROK and GUNS) and puts them over as much as possible.
-He’s also a known fan of video games, comics, anime, internet culture and musical theatre and references those sometimes.
-If ever he is written out of shows, it's likely that he's off doing a musical theatre production of some kind. Either that or he's just taking time off. You never can tell with him
-This was a well kept secret when he first broke into the wrestling business, but it has since been revealed that he has High Functioning Autism, which is really helpful to him as a booker since the gears in his head never stop turning.
