WRESTLER APPLICATION
Birth Name: He claims Jeff Conine.
Ring Name: Florida Man
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 198lbs
Birth Place: ??, Florida
Billed From: He hails from the primal instincts of Floridians everywhere.
Alignment: Loveable goof / scary monster with scarier fan appeal
Stable: Epcot Mafia (Probational Leader)
Pro Debut: 15/01/2007
GIMMICK SUMMARY
Pulled from the headlines, Florida Man is a man from Florida. He has questionable judgement, zero inhibitors, is prone to dangerously stupid schemes, and somehow always fails up. His luchador mask is that of an alligator wearing a hat. Too weird to live, too rare to die.
HISTORY
A quick internet search will reveal Florida Man's colourful history from attempting to rob the same 7-11 8 times in a single day to putting honey badgers down his pants for the purposes of gambling. An urban legend on he American Independent circuit, The Man From Florida is known for his brutal death match wrestling while being a colourful character that panders to children. Just the kind of Gaijin scum that would appeal to the Puroresu crowd...
IN WRESTLING
Super Finishing Move:
- FIREMAN'S SPECIAL - Florida climbs to a really high spot in the venue (balcony, scaffold, rafters etc), only to remember that he is terribly afraid of heights. Unable to get down, the fire department needs to be called to rescue him. This can result in a submission if his opponent doesn't want to wait, a countout if his opponent leaves in disgust, or if Florida falls he can hit a devastating high flying move by accident. I mean on purpose.
Finishing Moves
- MURPHY'S LAW - Shit happens... and he wins.
Signature Moves
- DEATH ROLL - A rolling neck claw done to look like Florida is biting his opponent.
- MINDBLOWER - Brainbuster
- ACCIDENTAL BACKDROP DRIVER - Hits a backdrop driver by mistake.
- BIGGEST PACKAGE - This is a small package, but Florida doesn't want people to get the wrong idea.
- POSSUM - Florida pretends to be dead. His opponent can be all "I'm not falling for it." But Florida is all: "Falling for what? I am unconscious." And they are all: "You did it last week." But he's all "I think you are mistaking me for someone else. I am knocked out, you are very strong." He will play dead for five minutes if necessary - but eventually his opponent will have to pick him up, and BAM! "I was just faking - Inside Cradle, bitch!" Opponent: "I knew it all along." Florida: "Then why didn't you kick out? You should see the look of surprise on your face, you stupid asshole." The language barrier might make this more confusing.
- FRIED CHICKEN - A weapon. He swings that shit like a shillelagh.
- WALMART MOBILITY SCOOTER - A weapon. Like Optimus Prime's trailer this scooter comes out of nowhere and Florida will mow you the fuck down.
- DARWIN AWARD - A weapon. Like Optimus Prime's trailer this comes out of nowhere and Florida will mow you the fuck down.
- FOOD STAMPS - A bribe. Florida Man pays his opponent to take a dive... with food stamps.
- MARCECHOCHICKNEE - High angle kneestrike
- MIAMI DOLPHIN KICK - This is FF7 Tifa Lockheart's dolphin kick, if sponsored by the Miami Dolphins
- YOUR NAME HERE DRIVER - A sitout butterfly piledriver - that is currently looking for a sponsor to be named after.
- BANANA PEEL DRIVER - Florida Man eats a banana and leaves the skin on the ground, hoping to cause his opponent to slip like in a cartoon, only he forgets about it, walks on it, slips himself - trying not to fall he grabs his opponent, only to hit a jumping cradle DDT.
- LEAP OF FAITH - This is just like Assassin's Creed when they jump off a tall building, only instead of a cart of hay - the opponent breaks Florida Man's fall.
- TRANQUILIZER DARTS - Florida Man will go "OH MY GOD I DIDN'T KNOW KIM KARDASIAN WAS INTO DOGGING" - then when the referee turns to look, Florida Man will shoot his opponent with a tranq gun.
- NEVER STOP SPINNING AIRPLANE SPIN - ....like he can get to 200 spins before he gets dizzy, so his opponent is as good as dead.
- TOUCH THE SKY - Repeater stomp - using opponent as a trampoline.
- KIRA'S JAW BREAKER - Roundhouse right.

IN RING APPEARANCE
...Florida is a masked wrestler. His mask resembles an old Halloween gorn mask, only the snout has been elongated to look more like a gator. Sometimes pupils are added to look even more like a cartoon. A wide brim straw hat appears to have been stitched into the mask, explaining why it doesnt fall off during matches. The brim is angled to look like a halo. A small hole in the corner of his plastic toothy smile is so he can easily access his cigarettes, but at the moment it holds a piece of straw to complete his lackadaisical country swagger. Instead of traditional tights, he wears overalls and vintage tees.
