VITAL STATISTICS
RING NAME: Aiden Merric
NICKNAMES: “Outback”, “The Wonder from Down Under”, “The Expert Hunter”, “The Contract Killer”, "The Aussie Assassin", "The Aussie Who Don't Give a Tossie", "Main Event Merric", "The Coober Pedy Uber Male", "The Top Draw Dingoslayer", "Drongo Destroyer"
HEIGHT/WEIGHT: 6’2”, 217lbs
HOMETOWN: Coober Pedy, South Australia
AGE: 46
ALIGNMENT: Anti-hero with heelish tendencies
GIMMICK: A hunter, poacher, and survivalist from the outback who thrives on finding cunning ways to take down the most dangerous game, and has been known to take a job for hire. He loves the thrill of the hunt and a good fight. He loves to claim trophies from his conquests and has a bit of a thing for one, Erin Gordon
PICBASE: Marton Csokas
APPEARANCE:
Aiden wears his dungarees, tan, in the ring. As well as some well-worn hunting boots, likely with knives hidden in various places. He has a crocodile skin belt and bandoliers across both sides of his chest with more weapons. Also tan. He has a hunter’s hat that he will wear to the ring as well as a tan vest. He dresses practically, as if on a well-researched hunt. His outfits are maneuverable but protective.
BIOGRAPHY
Aiden isn’t exactly forthcoming with his past. He was born in Coober Pedy to parents who were stuck working the opal mines. A good telling of his past can be found in this RP, probably my favorite Aiden RP, tells the story better than I could now here. Hell is For Children After a life of illicit gains and illegal activities, his reputation as an expert spread and he got to take on more legal, well-paid, more dangerous jobs. He decided it was time for a new conquest and took the the wrestling ring, taking AWF by storm as the then-longest reigning Phoenix champ. After a stint in REIGN he is coming to Tapout for reasons, mainly money and the thrill of the hunt. Surely NOTHING to do with the fine lady he thinks is wild about him. Surely … Aiden is a vile human but he has a code.
MOVESET, STYLE AND ENTRANCE
BIG MATCH GAME ENDER FINISHER (only for the biggest of big time matches, should be super rare): "Thunder from Down Under" (Kevin Owens’s Package Piledriver)
FINISHERS:
SIGNATURES:
SETUP MOVES:
OTHER MOVES:
WRESTLING STYLE:
Brawler with some basic knowledge of chain wrestling and submission - NOTE: HE SHOULD NEVER USE CLOTHESLINES/LARIATS EXCEPT TO TRY AND END THE MATCH! If you have a clothesline spot planned, use the same move but with a punch instead. Also he VERY MUCH favors punches over kicks.
ENTRANCE THEME:
"Unstoppable" by Disturbed
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION:
*The opening thumping guitar and drum riff of "Unstoppable" by Disturbed hits the arena as an imitation sandstorm is created in the entranceway. After 10 seconds of storm, Aiden Merric emerges from the billowing sands chewing nicotine gum and wearing a smug ass smile on his face. He spits the gum and puts a patch on his arm before stretching and walking to the ring with a purpose. He nods along with the theme song as he jabbers with the crowd and keeps moving. He stalks around the ring to the far side and nods at the commentators before he rolls into the ring and stretches on the ropes. The referee stops him and removes his various blades, ropes and other hunting equipment as he smirks. As the first chorus ends at roughly 65 seconds in, Aiden is set free to his corner. He then cracks his neck, waiting for the bell as his music fades and the storm subsides.*
MANAGED BY
NAME: Tucker Bernard
GIMMICK: Aiden’s only real friend, and dog’s body. A cowardly, short, fat, hairy, Brit who is too used to getting some of Aiden’s spillover rewards to leave the guy. Also the driver of the mobile hunter’s lodge, Aiden’s house on wheels
PICBASE: Robbie Coltrane as Hagrid from the Harry Potter Series
APPEARANCE: Always with long straggly hair and an epic beard, a paunchy fellow under six feet tall, who looks about as intimidating as a bowl of mac and cheese. He usually doesn’t come to the ring and wears normal casual clothing. Can occasionally be seen in a 5XL t-shirt from XHF Merch Store that reads "Goat > Mongo" but it still doesn't hide his large gut.
MANAGEMENT STYLE: Glad handing yes man
SIGNATURE MOVE: (max 1)
