Preferred Name/Nickname OOC: Caffrey
How Can We Reach You?: Discord for me/PMs for Radu
Tag Team/ Stable Name (if there is one): Purple Emperors
Involved Wrestlers Names + Links to their Fed's applications:
Anthony Caffrey (FIRESIDE owner) - xhf09.proboards.com/thread/13601/anthony-caffrey
Radu Matei (SWAT) - xhf09.proboards.com/thread/9949/sacrificial-idol-radu-matei
Wrestler Pic Bases: Link Neal (no mop top) + Peter Stormare
Combined Weight: 457 pounds
Tag-Team Entrance [The text entered here will be used in shows as your entrance]:
(House lights fade, plunging the arena into darkness. A single image appears.)
(Before a mass of lighters can be produced, purple and white spotlights playfully search through the audience, darting around to The Hives' "Tick Tick Boom" pumping over the loud speakers while whipping the audience into a frenzy. The purple lights are designed to look like butterflies, seemingly fluttering away from the more intense white glows in pursuit.)
(As chants go up throughout the audience, the purple spotlights convert on the entrance curtains.)
(When these lights align, Anthony Caffrey and Radu Matei push through in unison. A thunderous ovation is drowned out by a cavalcade of fireworks. The amount of blue and red sparks flying through the air might colour the arena in enough mauve light to make you miss the Purple Emperor’s matching tights, but as both men strike poses on opposite side of the entrance ramp, there is little doubt that they are on the same page.)
(The fan favourites make their way down the aisle, slapping hands along the way.)
********
Tag-Team Finishing Moves:
Catch and Release
Two variants: Caffrey locks in the Process (ankle lock) to hold the opponent in place, Radu comes in and hits the Omukade Press (jumping double foot stomp to the chest, face, or back) and ends the poor sap's night
OR this and Caffrey keeps the submission applied for extra problematic opponents
PESTIIIICIIIIIIIIIIIDE (saved for giant assholes and jobbers):
The other wrestler is tagged in, Caffrey and Radu rally the crowd bouncing off the ropes a few times, before connecting with a bullhammer elbow/spinning elbow (Closing Remarks/ATARI Centipede) combo
Other Moves:
Soft Pretzel Parasite: Caffrey slaps an opponent in his figure four ring post Soft Pretzel Lock, at which point Radu stands on the opponent’s hyper extended leg while distracting the referee with charming banter ™.
Broken Wings: Caffrey slaps on a crossface chickenwing, and Matei nails a chokeslam that gets both men up in the air – spiking the opponents head while Caffrey keeps the submission hold locked in.
Steady Flow: Caffrey hits a sunset flip, sending an opponent into a slingshot shoulderblock by Matei. The force sends the opponent snapping back into a spiked victory roll by Caffrey, while Matei rolls through the momentum to cut the pinned opponents’ partner off.
Dueling Moves: The two have been known to play the game of "Anything you can do, I can do better from time to time". Radu can usually win that argument by actually lifting someone off the ground.
Signature Moves (if there are any):
-Radu has either a box at ringside, or produces a large bag... like Jake Robert's bag there is definitely something offensive in there that his opponent does not want touching them. He'll frequently go to the bag / box and tease opening it to freak them and the referee out. Has also been known to produce mice, rats, spiders, and other insects and leave them on his opponents when they're unconscious.
-Caffrey will occasionally playfully taunt Radu if they’re doing well, calling him an old man
-Heroic Bloodshed: Radu will throw himself in the way of a big bump, protecting Caffrey, who can then pick off the attacker in short order.
Tag-Team Style: Scrappy babyface endurers with high pain thresholds who can take an ass-kicking but then come back and dish it out. When doing well Radu is a Puroseu-style brawler, Caffrey is a trash-talking technician.
Manager: None
Alignment [Is the character a heel, a tweener or a face?]: Face
Gimmick: Two multi-time world championship wrestlers who have both had very long undefeated streaks decided to do good, team up, and own this shit.
Their first match together as a team they beat five teams in one night.
Background Story (If there is one):
Caffrey recruited Radu to teaming while both were in SWAT, with Caffrey seeing Radu as his equal if not his better. Despite Radu being near the end of the line, he decided to give it a shot.
