Billed From: London, England by way of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

RINGSIDE INFORMATION
Entrance Theme: "Forever" by Travis Barker ft. Run The Jewels.
Entrance Description (Optional): Two massive thuds echo out through the arena, before an ear-piercing roar echoes through the speakers. Suddenly, the lights in the arena go down, and a massive spotlight illuminates the entrance ramp, where a figure stands with their back to the crowd. The harsh synthetic noise that opens 'Forever' plays out through the arena as the 'tron lights up with Graham Baker's titantron, and the Gaijin Kaiju swings around, throwing his hands out to a reception (or lack thereof.) Baker jaws shit at fans who are against him and bumps fists with those who support him as he makes his way to the ring, throwing himself up onto the apron and brushing his boots off.
Announcer: "Fighting tonight out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania...weighing in at two-hundred and fifty pounds...the Corsair King...Gaijin Kaiju...GRAHAM BAKER!"
Baker slips over the top rope and into the ring, throwing his jacket off and leaving it on the ropes. He presses his fist into his chin with a cocky smile before falling into a corner and awaiting his opponent.
CHARACTER INFORMATION
Disposition/Alignment: Tweener, but like, pretty much a heel at this point. Only thing keeping him from going full is the crowd's not always against him.
Gimmick: Angry bastard. Self-absorbed, selfish, a real crusty fucker. Graham Baker used to be a proficient technical wrestler, but has eschewed that to become one of the biggest, baddest, and most volatile warriors in the industry. Baker talks shit and isn't afraid to break bones to back it up.
IN RING INFORMATION
Wrestling Style: Powerhouse/Brawler. Baker's able to use his strength and speed to his advantage, but his wrestling is sloppy at best. Anyone with a strong technical accumen will likely be able to outpace him and take advantage of nagging injuries-but if he gets his hands on you, he likely won't stop until you're stopped.

Finishers - Maximum of 2

Any Other Common Moves
1. Suplexes - Graham Baker favors a suplex to dump an opponent on their head or, really, just fuck them up as they're trying to get momentum going. He favors the Dragon, German, Snap, and Exploder suplexes the most, but he's not afraid to bust out some crazy shit like a Regal-plex or Sidewinder when the opportunity calls for it. Most, if not all of these, can be done elevated or bridged.
2. Kicks - Baker utilizes his legs and speed to do major damage to an opponent, especially when combined with his lariats and other arm-based offense. Roundhouse, hook, switchblade, back-heel, superkicks, and dropkicks fill out his arsenal, with other variations coming to use as they're applicable. Baker often combines kicks to set opponents up for his devastating Grand Leveler lariat.
3. Knee Strikes - Much like his legs, Baker's knees also provide some crippling offense. Whether drilling an opponent with a bicycle or single leg knee strike, or driving his knee into an opponent's skull repeatedly, Baker likes to keep variety with how he manhandles the people he finds himself in the ring with. His knee strikes are the crux of his snap-offense, and often his go-to counters when nothing else seems to be working.
4. Arm-based offense - Elbows, forearms, lariats, punches, chops, slaps, the whole nine and then some. Baker's got some tree-trunk ass arms and he's not afraid to use them to welt the shit out of any opponent unfortunate enough to come across him in the Squared Circle. Most often, he'll use combinations of chops, slaps, and strikes to soften an opponent up for one of his killing blows.
5. Short-range stiff strikes - If an opponent finds themselves too close for comfort, or Baker finds himself in an uncomfortable situation, he'll often respond with barrages of stiff strikes such as headbutts, forearms, punches, slaps, and kicks. These barrages are usually combinations of his other offense, but to greater effect. Often, he'll end a sequence with a headbutt or a particularly gunshot-like chop to take an opponent down for good.
6. Bombs Away - Baker's a fan of the powerbomb, and will utilize multiple variants of the move to put his opponents away, especially with opponents his size or smaller. Variants such as standard sit-out powerbombs, sheer drop powerbombs, Last Ride/Elevated powerbombs, or powerbombs onto the knee are most common, as well as powerbombs to counter moves like headscissor takedowns or other 'rana-styled moves.
7. Slams and Power Moves - Baker is a fan of powerslams and using his weight against his opponent. Usually done when an opponent is caught out, Baker will slam them into the fucking canvas with zero hesitancy.
8. Head-Droppy Stuff - Piledrivers, brainbusters, and other moves to do damage to the head. He doesn't fuck with any concussion protocol.
9. From On High - While no longer a frequenter of the top rope, Baker knows how to counter those who do go high, and will often use that to his advantage to deliver devastating Avalanche variations of his common maneuvers.
10. When All Else Fails - Baker's not opposed to desperation tactics, so if an opponent is proving especially difficult to put down, or Baker feels that victory is slipping away, he'll utilize a low blow and a roll-up to put an opponent away for good.
