VITAL STATISTICS
RING NAME: Tommy Strychnine
NICKNAMES: The Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Rocker
HEIGHT/WEIGHT: 5'10", 175 lbs
HOMETOWN: New Orleans, Louisiana
AGE: 32
ALIGNMENT: Tweener
GIMMICK: Tommy's a staunch advocate of the rockstar lifestyle. He lives a life of excess and too-much eye makeup. He's kind of a goofy dude and very much a glory chaser, so he doesn't take much seriously until something prestigious is on the line. He's just as likely to bust someone in the face with something as he is to brush them off completely.
PICBASE: Satchel from Steel Panther
APPEARANCE: Tommy Strychnine dresses like a reject from a hair metal band, straight out of the eighties. Big hair, headbands, mesh shirts, fishnets, scarves, nothing is out of the question when Tommy Strychnine takes the stage. He is almost never seen without a guitar, even though there is nobody in creation who knows if he can actually play. Wiry, couple of tattoos including a full back piece that's supposed to wither be his own face or that of Vince Neal from Motley Crue. Even Tommy can't answer that question.
BIOGRAPHY
Tommy Strychnine was born Thomas Tyler Steele in Baton Rogue, LA. From a young age, he wanted to be the center of attention and would do all sorts of wacky stuff to get people to pay attention to him. Whether it was elaborate pranks at school or videos of embarrassing things on Youtube, Tommy was desperate to be a star. When he was 13 years old he discovered glam metal and from that moment Tommy Strychnine was born. At around the same time, Tommy discovered a powerful singing voice that, coupled with his natural showmanship, brought him to the attention of a number of record producers. After finishing his GED at 16, Tommy joined Lazer Phyzycyst as the vocalist. For the next decade, Tommy enjoyed success and worldwide acclaim, until a disagreement with the band's frontman Nikk Pryzym left Tommy ejected from the band. Tommy did some short stints with other bands, ultimately leaving him unfulfilled.
He found his way into wrestling entirely by mistake. At a bar show for a local metal band in New Orleans, in the midst of a bender of legendary proportions, Tommy mistook a wrestling event for a mosh pit. Intending to work out some frustrations, the former rockstar put on an impressive showing, ultimately being declared the winner of a battle royale, before they found out he wasn't a wrestler and was, in fact, just very drunk and halfway decent in a fight. With the offer of a steady income, Tommy agreed to a contract and joined a wrestling school. After training for approximately a year, Tommy took the stage as a wrestler for real. It was a natural fit, and Tommy's stock rose astronomically. Soon enough he was headlining sold-out shows all over the world again. His goofy charm, natural showmanship, and surprising ability made him a natural fit, and even though the ghost of his music career still follows him around, Tommy has embraced the world of Pro Wrestling as his home.

"Do You Wanna Taste It?" by Wig Wam
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION:
The arena goes completely dark, and for a moment all that can be heard is the murmurs of the crowd. Suddenly lights can be heard coming up and the stage is washed in white light. Someone brings out a stool and places it in the spotlight, then another crew member places an old-school boombox on the stool. The camera pans in on the boombox, and a hand appears to press the play button.
”Do you really wanna? Do you really wanna taste it?”
The stage explodes in pyro when the music starts and, when the smoke clears, Tommy Strychnine has taken the place of the makeshift plinth, dressed in a spiked purple zebra-striped leather jacket, matching skintight leather pants, atrfully torn ‘Tommy Strychnine half-shirt over a mesh under and a gold kneepad with a cartoon pair of lips emblazoned on it. He struts his way across the stage, playing to the crowd, and he takes his time before finally making the journey down the ramp, pausing to taunt the crowd along the way, really working them up into a cacophonous chorus of boos.
When he reaches ringside, he takes a lap before stripping off his jacket and draping it over the timekeeper’s table. He rolls into the ring and makes his way over to the turnbuckle, climbing it and miming tossing dice into the crowd, before backflipping off and landing in a powerslide as pyro fires from the ring posts.
