BIOGRAPHY
[WIP/UDPATED TO FEBRUARY 2020.]
EARLY CAREER/ICON CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING
Maverick began is wrestling career in August of 2015 at the young age of 18, being trained by many Irish trainers until he went to England at the age of 19 and met with Johnny Moss and trained hard for over a year until he was scouted by Icon Championship Wrestling officials and signed to the company in June of 2017. A few weeks later, Maverick would have his debut match for the company in a Three Way Match where he would come up to a tough loss to Mad Dog Smith after outside interference by Chaos Kid. Maverick would pick up a couple more losses until he finally beat Mad Dog Smith to capture a shot at the ICW Ironman Championship, then held by Chaos Kid. He would lose that match and then be put into a 5 on 5 Tag Team Match, the last two remaining would become contenders to the Tag Team Championships.
After the match, it was decided that Maverick would team with the ICW World Heavyweight Champion, Jack Diamond, as they faced Duke Kosloff and Chaos Kid at Shattered Reflection. Both Maverick and Diamond won the ICW Tag Team Championships after some outside interference by Bobby Barratt helped the duo win. The company closed before they could ever defend the Tag Team Championships.
XTREME HARDCORE FEDERATION NETWORK
After Icon Championship Wrestling closed down early October, Maverick got a tip about another American-based wrestling company within a "Network" of federations named The XHF Network, where he would join Ascension Wrestling Federation. The first few months were tough for Maverick, being only a professional for about 3-4 months beforehand. At AWF's Prestige 7, he would join a faction along with rivals from ICW; Bobby Barratt, Jack Diamond and El Cazador to form The Icons. At Prestige 11, he would pick up his first win under the AWF brand as he teamed with The Icons to beat The Order in a 8 Man Tag Match. His first singles victory would come in the form of beating Kira Izumi at Prestige 12. Just before Maverick was given a shot at the AWF State of Ohio Championship at Road to Victory in 2018, from there he beat Jason Justice to win his first singles Championship but the reign was short lived as he was beaten in his first defense to Seth Dillinger. This led to a rivalry that went on for a few months, leading to two draws between both Maverick and Dillinger before Dillinger finished off Maverick in a Ladder Match at Prestige 21.
Maverick would go out of the title picture for a few months, after a match for the Tag Team Championships as he teamed with Copycat, he called out the Prestige Champion, Seth Dillinger. Felix Ziko came out and gave Maverick an opponent for A Very AWF Christmas in the form of the returning HYPERION. This match was where Maverick outshined and upped himself to the Prestige Division after beating HYPERION with multiple Iconkicks and one Running Single Leg Dropkick. Following Supremacy and the win over M.G.K, Maverick would take over the reigns of The Diamond Lounge after the retirement of Jack Diamond after Diamonds Are Forever. Maverick was granted a Prestige Championship Match against Chris Card at Road To Victory before HYPERION intersected and put himself into the match, the match ended with Maverick eating the pin from Chris Card.
At Prestige XXX, Maverick brought in Nathan "Drago" Santiago to The AWF Icons and laid out HYPERION. At The Rumble, Maverick and Drago beat three other teams to win the XHF Tag Team Championships. Later that night, Maverick would enter the Rumble Match and come in eighth place. In June, Maverick would interfere in Seth Dillinger vs Copycat for the X*Crown Championship and then put himself into the X*Crown Title Picture, along with this match, he accepted to a match where Maverick's Diamond Lounge would be on the line against AXW's Anthony Caffrey in a Title vs Lounge 2 Out Of 3 Falls Match that was dubbed "The Three Stages of Superiority Match" at Battle of The Best. Maverick lost both matches, and ended up feeling like he's lost it all.
The weeks leading up to the next Prestige were filled with rumors of Maverick retiring or leaving AWF, at that Prestige it was confirmed that they were nothing more than rumors. After his loss to Chris Card at Beach Blast, the rumors began to speculate once more as retirement seemed more likely than before. Throughout the week, he would wrestle for Master Class Championship Wrestling's Master Clash event in a winning effort of a Tag Match against Dos Angeles and once more with Sakura-Gun at Sakura Shoujo Stampede's Lucky 13 event. After the match against Sakura-Gun, Maverick came clear and the rumors were true. He would begin his retirement from there on in the XHF. 3 days after the retirement, he would surprise the entire network and end up in the Infinity Realms of IRW, from there... nothing much is heard from Maverick.
Until the rumor mills were turning again, MCCW had acquired a very strong signing and his name would eventually be Maverick, revealed shortly after MCCW's Mastery Tour ended. He would also insert himself as an X*Crown competitor for End of Days 2019 after beating PSW's competitor, Lucas Swann, but his rise to the top would end in shambles as within fingertips from winning the X*Crown, he came up short in the Vortex Match being beaten out by Bobby Barratt; long time friend and rival. Maverick would then continue his run in MCCW before shockingly inserting himself back into the X*Crown scene again as AWF hosted it's second Very AWF Christmas. This time, he would cut through gauntlet members such as Joe Nobody and Dylan Black before meeting Bobby Barratt in the Main Event where he would win his first X*Crown Championship.
This would lead Maverick to sign back with Ascension Wrestling Federation at Prestige Forty Five, and on that same night, he'd readapt the name of the "Legend Killer" after snapping, then United States Champion, Eric Dane's arm. He would lose the X*Crown Championship to Zoran Sainovic in the LEGO Minefield Deathmatch at Supremacy. A few weeks later, he would tag with his old rival, Seth Dillinger, to face Natasha and Anthony Caffrey. It wouldn't go well as Maverick was dropped on his neck with From Cradle to Grave by Natasha, he would have ended up needing surgery in his neck to fix the broken vertebrae. He would return to the XHF upon his entry in the Call to Arms Tournament but he was eliminated in the first round by Jack Diamond, leading to his team's demise against Team Fuck Mongo.
XTREME HARDCORE WRESTLING
Maverick would end up in the MGM Grand as XHW would be hosting their All Or Nothing event, that's when he appeared and attacked Daman Arress before making a statement that he would take over XHW all by himself. From there, he would begin a winning streak and would win the XHW Pride Championship from David Arnold at Full Throttle. He would lose the title at Saturday Night Anarchy but would gain it back in a Two Out of Three Falls Match two weeks later. Maverick would hold the title until God Amongst Men when he lost it in an Xscape Match to Lucas Knight. After accepting the open challenge by Leon Washington for the XHW United States Championship, he would go on to win that title at X-Fest Night Two in Arlington, Texas.
He would go on to enter King of Trios with Howell and Saylor St. James but during the semi-finals and the final, she was replaced by Shawn Hughes. Howell would turn on Maverick and Shawn, causing them to lose out on the King of Trios Tournament victory. A few weeks later, Maverick would enter his first Elimination Chamber match and within it, he became XHW Undisputed Champion whilst holding the XHW United States Championship. He would go on to lose the said belt to Frankie Harkins on an episode of Tuesday Night Riot after interference by Howell and then lose the Undisputed Championship two months later in the All or Nothing Battle Royal. After returning to the ring at the end of Howell vs Shawn Hughes at Full Throttle a month later, he announced a match with himself and Howell at SuperBrawl.

STRENGTHS:
1. "Aerial Master" - Maverick was always condemned to be an aerial master in the ring, through his work he's found to always be in the air performing some sort of move. His matches were always unique, always performing an awe-inspiring move at some point in the match that'll get the crowd excited and pumped up.
2. "King of Countering" - Maverick always knows how to break out of something, and makes it look good. He brings an unique style of countering into the game, finding new ways to break out of holds or submissions etc.
3. "The Shooter" - Maverick tends to go heavy on his striking power, landing kicks mainly to the torso or to the head. If he's not preparing you for his finish, he'll damn near kill you- or more so knock you out cold. If it's a strength to have the hardest striking game in the business, he ranks at the top, and nobody can come close to it.
WEAKNESSES:
1. "The Cocky Motherfucker" - Of course, when you're Maverick, you get to be a tad bit cocky in your own right. An ego has built over the years of Maverick, and it gets bigger from there. Sometimes, his own ego can cost him a lot, and even when he finally realizes it- it's too late.
2. "No Care To Himself" - When he gets too into a fight, he'll go into a mode where he'll throw his body at anything. Maverick has been through wars with many men, he has left himself in a river of his own blood, he has left himself with scars and bruises. Does he care if he puts his body on the line for the win or even the loss? Not a fucking chance.
3. "Grounded Game" - Maverick hates being grounded at any point, he despises it. His in-ring games involve him taking to the skies and if he's grounded, he cannot use those to his advantage.
TENDENCY TO CHEAT: Sometimes.
WEAPON OF CHOICE: Metal Baseball Bat.
IN-RING EXPERIENCE: Wrestling for five years, professionally for three.
IN-RING ATTITUDE: Mind games, manipulation, and taking your fucking head off. The in-ring attitude of Maverick can change within an instant. He might start off slowly, playing the mind games to throw his opponent off and when he finds a chance to strike, he will snap into a striking beast, looking to slay the monster. Other occasions, he starts off in the stance of shooting all of his rounds and making sure he doesn't miss, he might fall back to those mind games if the occasion calls for it but as he's said himself... "He doesn't miss."
