Entrance Style:
The arena lights suddenly cut off, plunging the arena into darkness. After a pause of around five seconds, then the start of Tool's "Stinkfist" begins to play. Twin white spotlights flash into life and begin scanning around the arena in a seemingly random pattern, illuminating parts of the ring, the entranceway, the commentary desk and the audience as the riff of the song continues to build, then slowly come together in the middle of the aisle and slowly pan up towards the ramp spotlighting "The Future" Lee Stevens at the 30 second mark, who stands at the mouth of the entrance way, staring out across the crowd with a look of determination. He slowly raises the Triad three finger hand gesture and then begins his way to the ring, the spotlight following him down.

Ring Announcer: Introducing, Currently residing in Osaka, Japan, weighing in at 199 pounds, he is The Marvel of the Modern Era--- Lee Stevens!!!

Stevens walks down the ramp slowly. He soaks up the hero worship waves of his Smark cheering section at ringside, before sliding in under the ropes, going right for the opposite corner, throwing up the TRIAD Hand gesture to a rousing amount of cheers. The houselights fading back up as he does so. Lee hops off the ropes, and walks to the hard camera before stretching his arms out, fingers waving, before striking a hard bicep pose, then snapping his hand down, pointing to his abs. He finishes his pose then turns to await his opponent.

Ring Attire:
Wears black wrestling full length pants. The pants themselves have multiple designs, colors, and logos reprsenting some of his favourite sayings and things that define him. Included are the Straight Edge sXe symbol and buring heart, A small skyline of the Hamilton City as seen from the escarpment, Several Band names, sayings and ofcourse a prominant TRIAD 'T' in a cirlce symbol. Both elbow pads also display the "T" wrapped in a Circle and black hockey tape wrapped around his wrists, bare white "X's" on the hands representing his Straight-Edge Lifestyle.

On the way to the ring, he will always wear a t-shirt, different designs (BEST IN THE WORLD, I HAVE TILL 5, JUST PURE TALENT) with the sides and arms cut off of the shirt. (Think HBK)

Street Attire:
Lee can usually be seen sporting a random designed t-shirt (anything trendy), over designer jeans and sneakers.

Appearance:
A handsome 30-Something Canadian, with longish brown hair. Wears a neatly trimmed soul patch and always seems to sport a 5 O'clock shadow. His body is toned and has recently worked on and further developed his muscle tone. He currently looks jacked!

TATTOS: Lee has recently gotten some extensive ink done. He has gotten both arm sleeves completed. He has one very noticeable tattoo on his right arm of a red rockstar and angel wings behind it. Has the Straight Edge Burning Heart with "One Life to Live" written under it over his left pec, The Triad "T" inside a white circle over his right pec, another Straight Edge design on the back of his neck, a black and red XXX tattoo on the inside of his Right Leg, the Stay True tat on his stomach, and on his Hands he has the sXe symbol on his right with the words "True Till Death" written underneath and on the left a skull with the words "Death Before Dishonor" written on the design. And finally across his fingers going from right pinky to left pinky, spells "S-T-R-8 E-D-G-E". Recently, he added a "13 shattering through Glass" tattoo to his right side of his ribcage, representing his RSPW International Triple Crown victory.

Pic base is Alex Shelley.

Wrestling Style:
Very much a current generation 'Hybrid' wrestler; fast paced, Japanese style, high flying, with a hint of technical in the mix too for flavour. Lots of kicks. Likes to adapt for every match and learn and use different moves all the time. No too Lee Stevens matches look the same. Lee is also a Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, studying under another Hamilton native and BJJ Black Belt, Jeff "The Inferno" Joslin. And as such, he likes to incorporate this into his style.

Personality:
Lee is a VERY cocky man and VERY outspoken. However, he comes with a devote passion for wrestling. Once the bell has rung he is very fast and very dangerous. His offence is constantly evolving and he is very much a perfectionist. A real student of the game, he loves to seek out his opponents and video tape their matches, where he can then study them and develop counter attacks for his opponents trademark moves. Often referred to as being somewhat "OCD" when it comes to this talent/obsession. Also of important note, Lee practices the straight-edge lifestyle. That means no drinking, no drugs. His drink of choice is Dr. Pepper and drug of choice is competition. But unlike others in the straight-edge lifestyle who will live and let live, Lee looks down on everyone else that indulges in those activities. In fact, since adopting his new attitude, he's developed an elitest attitude reminding everyone that will listen, that he is BETTER THAN YOU. Also since the emergence of the new heelish persona, he will often be seen utilizing the entire referee's 5 (break) count, before loudly reminding the ref that "I HAVE TILL FIVE".

9. Bittersweet Music (Superkick)

10. Finishing Touch:
What it is: A Legsweep DDT As Tribute to his friend and mentor Jason Violent
How it is set up: Via a kick to the gut (or groin if he can get away with it)
Description: Lee kicks the opponent in the gut, doubling them over, then uses his left arm to pull them into a front facelock and looping their left arm over his shoulders as if for a vertical suplex. However, while he does this, he also snakes his left leg around their right, inverted Russian legsweep (Flatliner/Downward Spiral style). Lee then hurls himself backward, sweeping the opponent's leg out from under them as he does so, driving the opponent headfirst into canvas with vicious force.

Supermove:
1. S.N.S. (Severe Neck Skull) Trauma - (Electric Chair Driver/Joker Driver)


Brief Bio:
Born to privilege, Lee Stevens was always around the wrestling scene since birth. His father was EOW wrestler "Primetime" Keith Richards (Keith Stevens) and one half of the legendary tag team "THAT DAMN GOOD". Lee had always wanted to be a wrestler since he was a little boy. He was always a student of the game, studying as many tapes as he could get his hands on. As soon as he was old enough, Lee joined the Golden Horseshoe Wrestling Alliance (GHWA) in Hamilton Ontario as a member of their ring crew. He studied and learned his craft under the tutelage of GHWA owners Steve Corman and Mike Mancini. It was right around this time that Lee met Ryan for the first time and convinced his friend to attend some lessons with him. They quickly became the stand out students in their class, far out-shadowing the rest. They soon graduated, and immediately went on very successful tours of Japan and Mexico. Lee's biggest downfall is he HATES losing. This is why his offence is constantly evolving and he is very much a perfectionist. A real student of the game, he loves to seek out his opponents and video tape their matches, where he can then study them and develop counter attacks for his opponents trademark moves. Often referred to as being somewhat "OCD" when it comes to this talent/obsession but Lee has a goal to become the "Perfect" wrestler. Also of important note, Lee practices the straight-edge lifestyle. That means no drinking, no drugs. His drink of choice is Dr. Pepper and drug of choice is competition. But unlike others in the straight-edge lifestyle, Lee looks down on everyone else that indulges in those activities.

Together with Ryan, Lee joined Unlimited Combat Wrestling as one half of the hottest tag teams in the promotion, the Steel City Kru, instantly earning the ire of the fans and the boys in the back with their brash arrogance, though they more than made up for it in the ring. They were entered into the tournament to crown the new Tag Champions, whilst earning personal animosity from the brother/sister combo Sensationally Violent. The two teams would finally clash at Collision Course '10 in the tournament finals, where - thanks to the falling out of Jason Violent and Jen Sensation - they stood opposite only Violent. However, despite the advantage, they fell to the former XFW Heavyweight Champion, who took the titles. Using their Elite faction connections, the Steel City Kru wrangled a rematch, with the amendment that if Sensation no-showed again, they would be given the titles. Jen did indeed appear for the match, but finally turned on her brother, allowing the Kru to pick up the win and the titles.

With their Elite backing, the Kru defended their titles in back to back weeks against the joke of UcW, Donnie Donington, and a combination of increasingly sub-standard partners, in an effort to refrain from any serious defenses. Finally, at Mega Battle 2010, they fixed it for Donington to be alone that night. However, their plan fell through, and Van Wyld rushed to Donnie's aid, helping the youth wrest the tag titles from the Kru.

The Kru long maintained that they never lost the titles, with the illegal man having been pinned, and refused to use their rematch clause claiming they should never have lost the titles in the first place. But the loss affected them, and they failed to pick up another victory for months, until finally Elite leader Jonny Richter gave them an ultimatum; win back the titles, or be booted from the faction.

Again, the Kru did everything in their power to gain a sizable advantage when Mega Battle rolled around, revealing that they hadn't been bullying Donnie at all; he was, in fact, secretly related to one of their faction members, and had been helping them duck serious challenges for months. Donnie stood Van Wyld up, leaving him along against the Kru, until Van's half-brother, UcW Owner Bill Masters, came to his aid. The brothers were able to defeat the Kru, casting into doubt their status in the Elite faction.

The doubt was answered on the next show, when Richter - who had long had issues with Stevens - booted him from the group and viciously attacked him. Ryan watched on, unable to come to his BFFs aid, at risk of his own job. Since Elite owned Lee's contract, he was unable to actively compete for UcW. Ryan remained, looking to forge a solo career, or tag with his new girlfriend, fellow Elite member Valentine.

Lee however, quickly dawned a mask and was rehired in UcW as The Saint. Lee would wear a costume and completely change his move set, in order to go undetected. Lee, or the Saint, would only speak through letters written and recited by UcW Interviewers. However, The Saint made his intentions clear, that he was out for revenge and even suggested a short list of names he would exact that revenge on. However, UcW was in financial trouble due to the shabby ownership of Bill Masters and The Saint would not end up exacting that revenge. However, at Fightfest he would be entered into a tag team battle royal with Mike Cheese as his partner. The match came down to Ryan Michaels and The Saint only to have Stevens reveal himself and declare that KRU reunited and the winners of the Tag Team Battle Royal.

Now with the final chapter of UcW written and in the history books, The Steel City Kru have set their sites on PRIME. What are their intentions? What are their motives? Will they continue to target their foes from the past or set out a new path? Only time will tell.

The Kru went on to win the PRIME Tag Team Titles, in a ladder match that featured every team in PRIME. The Kru would go on to be the first and last champions of PRIME, as the fed closed shortly after and was bought out by Van Wyld, who moved the headquarters to Dallas, Texas and re-christened the fed as Wyldside Wrestling. However, before WsW officially kicked off, UcW Had a reunion. And that reunion saw the birth of the TRIAD. The Triad was a gathering of the Kru Members and Jason Violent. Three men that felt wronged by the wrestling industry as a whole and began airing their dirty laundry in the weeks leading up to the PPV. Rumors flew around that the TRIAD's behaviour threatened the Reunion show itself. In the end, The TRIAD would meet Jonny Richter and The Seattle Saints in the Main Event, in which the TRIAD went on to win. When Wyldside officially opened it's doors, the TRIAD, now the hottest group in wrestling, were the first contracts signed. The team began to call out anyone and everyone. However, the KRU, once dubbed the greatest tag team in the world, couldn't seem to get their act together. Although experiencing much success as a group (Won the 2012 Extreme Warfare Match), the Kru has yet to do much of anything in the Tag Team Division. Lee however, has had an amazing run in WsW as a singled competitor, even earning himself his first World Title Shot (which ended in controversey due to interference from Parker Davis). But it was at Extreme Warfare that Lee got what he feels is him ultimate revenge. On That night, it was revealed that Lee was the mastermind behind the tension between Davis and Richter. Richter would defeat Davis to retain his title, only for moments later for Lee to reveal that his new girlfriend, was actually Richter's wife Monika Wells. Lee would then assault Richter leaving him ripe for the pickings of his partner and mentor Jason Violent who would defeat Richter for the UcW Heavyweight Championship. Stevens, now with Wells by his side, has been dubbed "The Future of this sport" by Jason Violent. And although Lee's partner Ryan holds an 365 Tag Title shot, it appears that Lee may prefer to branch off and achieve Greatness on his own. Only time will tell.

After quite the hiatus following the closure of WsW, the Kru posted a lengthy blog announcing their return to Wrestling, as a Team, reuniting together under the banner of the Kru. They plastered the blog around the dirt sheets and every independent promotion in the united states. Many came calling, but none offered the package that TCW did. TCW had a floundering Tag Team Division and were looking to have the Kru inject it with adrenaline. The Kru did just that. Within days they were the most talked about (hated) duo in TCW. Making matters worse, like the Babe Ruth(s) of Tag Team Wrestling, they called their shot saying that the very first time they got a chance, they would WIN the TCW Tag Team Titles. Which they did, not only defeating the Crowd Favorite Citrus Sting, but the added stipulation being that once they won, the Sting were never allowed to Tag Again. But, history would repeat itself, and TCW would close overnight. Michaels deciding to finally call it a day, has chosen to walk away from wrestling, to follow his dream of becoming a Professional Hockey Player, while Lee is now focusing his career on becoming a World Champion. His journey now takes his back to WsW, where he will try and capture the one title that alluded him in his first go around. The WsW Ultimate Championship. Unfortunately, WsW was not meant to be, and folded after 3 return shows. Lee got to work with his friend Jason Violent one last time, during those shows. Stevems now takes his talents to the NWA, AllStar Wrestling in the U.K.

Stevens would arguably find his greatest personal success in ASW, becoming the company's top heel and winning the APEX Heavyweight Championship.

After ASW closed, Stevens would find work in RSPW and PWR. Along with his brother Brodie and friends Toshiro Asai, they would capture the RSPW Trios Tag Championships

Stevens would return to Wyldside Wrestling upon it's reopening and would align with former stablemate and best friend Jason Violent to become the WsW TEXAS Tag Wrestling Champions on 8/28/15 and holding the titles for 51 days.

Upon the relaunch of RSPW, Stevens would return to the land he refers to as his second home. Stevens had lofty goals of becoming a legend in Japan on his first go around; something he plans to achieve this time. On 12/19/15, he moved one step towards his dream, capturing the RSPW Junior Weight Championship from Beni Mathews. But that wasn't all for Stevens, as he would go on the run of his life. Capturing the RSPW Tag Team Championships with his Brother and a second Junior Heavyweight Championship reign would set the table for Stevens to capture his first Major Championship, defeating Marcus Marion at BattleKingdom 10, after cashing in the Dream Gate Golden Ticket, which he had in his possession, to win his first RSPW International Triple Crown Champion. Stevens would have a total of two reigns as RSPW International Triple Crown Champion before returning to the States to capture his Ultimate Goal, the WsW ULTIMATE International Heavyweight Championship! Which he did on 10/29/17 Defeating Magnum Wolf, after he Cashed in his 365 Contract at the EWS ALL IN PPV.

EWS: Stevens would go into an EWS merger as the WsW ULTIMATE International Heavyweight Champion, competing in a Six Way Title Unification Match and defeating Aeolus Wrath, Magnum Wolf, Mako Khan, Austin Graves and Togo Oni to win the newly renamed EWS Undisputed World Championship!

Stevens would suffer what was thought to be a Career ending Injury at the Hands of Mark Brown. He would be sidelined and in recovery for the better part of two years due to this injury. Now, in 2020, Stevens looks to return to the sport he loves. The question is, Where?
