Wrestler Info
Wrestler's Name: Rob Riot
Alias/Nicknames: The Riot Star
Height: 6ft 3in

Alignment: Doesn't care, but currently working heel.
Hometown: Blackpool England (but fighting out of Manchester, England)
Description: Pic base: Trent Baretta. Riot comes to the ring in black silk pants, red boots, red MMA-style gloves, red wraps around his forearms, and one black elbow pad on his right arm. He has a tattoo of a broken clock on his right shoulder, and a skull with a cross on his left shoulder.
Wrestler's Outlook: A grizzled veteran and a multi-time world champion all over the world. More years in the business behind him than he has ahead of him. Determined that his final run will be a success, by any means necessary. Committed to making The Bastards the most dominant faction in pro wrestling history.
Background: Many, many years ago, in the badlands of the G-Fed wrestling network, there was a teenager called the J-Man who became a world champion. In the rings of No Limits Championship Wrestling, he went to war with Glyn Speight and Ian Insane over and over again, winning praise, accolades and glory. His patented finisher, the Locking Clamp, seemed almost inescapable. And then came a black, horrible day. The J-Man lost everything, and the J-Man had to go away. Ten years later he reappeared in the Pinnacle Wrestling Association, with the same face but a new name. He was now Rob Riot. He ascended back to glory, carrying the promotion with him. Now, though, something was different about him. He spoke of being haunted by the sound of a broken clock, with a tick that only he can hear - a broken clock that he's had tattooed onto his very skin. Something within the ink itself drives him and torments him, but also inspires him. This is the same man, but in those ten years he was away something within him snapped. Something was taken from him and something was lost.
Having tasted glory with the PWA, Riot became their champion. And then their first Grand Slam Champion. And then he went to Extreme Anarchy Wrestling, and won their World Heavyweight Championship, too. And from there, Next Generation Wrestling's Brass Ring holder and World Champion, and Gate City Wrestling's very first Badstreet Champion. Eventually, he opened his own promotion, Riot Star Wrestling, and sat at the very top of the wrestling world. The promising career he once thought was lost finally reached its full potential, and the Riot Star became unstoppable. At the peak of his powers, with his friends the Bastards by his side, Riot became World Champion of his own promotion. With the beast inside him seemingly sated at last, he walked away from the company that he built and settled into retirement...or so he thought.
Riot can't let it go. Whether he still hears that broken clock or pines for what he's lost is anyone's guess as he keeps that side of himself out of sight these days, but something still drives him to fight. The Bastards world tour ain't over till the fat lady sings, and she hasn't cleared her throat yet.
Allies: Frank Windsor & Billy Fowler (The Bastards). Sean Bean (Hollywood star, Bastards mascot). Maurice Evans (elderly family friend and confidante).
Entrance Info
Entrance Music: "I Feel You" by Depeche Mode when wrestling in singles. "Take It Easy, Chicken" by Mansun when wrestling with the Bastards.
Entrance Description:
"I Feel You" by Depeche Mode bursts through the arena PA as the entrance ramp is bathed in red and white spotlights. They arc and twist over the ramp, waiting to pick out Rob Riot. Just as the vocals kick in, Riot steps through the curtains, twirling his long black ring jacket behind him as he does. He takes a moment to soak in the crowd's response, nodding to himself as he does, before turning his attention to the ring.
Raising one arm and clenching his fist in the air, Riot walks down to the ring, now oblivious to the crowd around him. He's all business. He walks around the ring once and takes his time to climb up the steps, walking half way along the ring and wiping his feet before he steps through the ropes.
