Bio:</p><p>

Gustaf and Enok are half brothers who work primarily as a tag team known as The Bastard Sons (of Odin). Gustaf is a spot monkey-style cruiser weight, who like to push the limits of what high flying really means. Enok can fly when he needs to, but prefers a ground-based move set due to an injury sustained from a botched moonsault.</p><p> </p><p>

Finisher: Gustaf: Springboard Shooting Star Press; Enok: Hammer of the Gods (Sheer-drop Brainbuster)</p><p> </p><p>

<p>Hey London, good to see you're still around and working on this. I'm sorry I dropped the ball on some of the Londonverse stuff we'd talked about way back in the day. I've had real life stuff going on and I just sort of lost interest in TEW and Wrestling in general. I'm glad to see you're still working on this and I hope things are going well for you in general.</p><p> </p><p>

Not sure I should be submitting an entry given I was your co-author for a while, but it's been a long time since then and I got the itch to submit a character of my own.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Name: </strong>Ando Saez (Real Name: Fernando Saez)</p><p>

<strong>Age:</strong> 26</p><p>

<strong>Ethnicity: </strong>Spanish</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Appearance: </strong>Good looking, with a punk inspired look. Messy Medium Length Black Hair, Brown Eyes, No facial hair. Wears a Leather Jacket/Vest. About 5' 10" with a lean and toned look. I picture him looking a bit <a href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fc/Jul_Bolinaga%2C_guitarist_of_the_band_RIP.jpg" rel="external nofollow">like this.</a></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bio:</strong></p><p>

Fernando "Ando" Saez is a young high flyer from Burgos, Spain who has become known for his daredevil antics and willingness to take crazy bumps with little regard for his own safety. While exciting, he would probably be better off taking less risks and instead focusing on working a safer, more controlled style. Naturally charismatic and good looking, Saez has potential to be a major name on the European wrestling circuit if he can stay healthy and refine his style.</p><p> </p><p>

Saez's persona is heavily inspired by the Spanish Raw Punk movement; going so far as to name his finisher, a Corkscrew Moonsault, the R.I.P Sin Dios as a tribute to two of his favorite bands. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Finisher:</strong> R.I.P Sin Dios (Corkscrew Moonsault)</p><p>

<strong>Wrestling Style:</strong> Cruiserweight</p><p>

<strong>Personality: </strong>A bit Egotistical and Selfish, Somewhat Social, Very Bold, Driven, Extremely Liberal.</p><p>

<strong>Stats: </strong>Very Flashy & Athletic, good Charisma and SQ, but low Safety and Consistency.</p>

<p>Name: The Screamin' Demon</p><p>

Age: 34</p><p>

Ethnicity: White</p><p>

Appearance: Literally just a dude painted red with dumb looking goat horns.</p><p>

Bio: You ever just go through a career not knowing what you're doing wrong? That was the case with Beauregard Leopold Fontaine, a journeyman brawler from Alabama who found trouble connecting with audiences all across the South. Not even the traditional cop out of wearing a US flag wasn't doing it, so at the end of his rope he took the only option left to him: Paint himself red, wear a crappy barbarian loincloth and novelty horns he bought from a costume shop, and scream a lot. Thus the Screamin' Demon was born.</p><p>

Finisher: Shout At The Devil (Discus Clothesline while yelling really loud)</p><p>

Personality: Normal Guy, I know right?</p>

<p>Just saw this, gonna think about it some today and hopefully submit at least one character by day's end.</p><p> </p><p>

EDIT: Quick inspiration.</p><p> </p><p>

Name: Olaf the Bearzerker</p><p>

Age: 31</p><p>

Ethnicity: White (Swedish)</p><p>

Appearance: Moderately stocky (high lightweight, low middleweight), angry face with bear related headgear (mask, or something else), red hair</p><p>

Bio: Olaf and Uleg the Bearzerkers are a decent, high energy tag team from Sweden. While an entertaining pair of workers, both are equally high energy in and out of the ring, and their hard-partying lifestyle may catch up to them sooner than later. Of the pair, Olaf wrestles in a more brawling style, though he still has good speed to use against bigger workers.</p><p>

Finisher: Bearzerker Maul (Running Lariat)</p><p>

Personality: Don't recall what the presets are, but something of a hard partier.</p><p> </p><p>

Name: Uleg the Bearzerker</p><p>

Age: 28</p><p>

Ethnicity: White (Swedish)</p><p>

Appearance: Moderately stocky (high lightweight, low middleweight), angry face with bear related headgear (mask, or something else), blonde hair</p><p>

Bio: Olaf and Uleg the Bearzerkers are a decent, high energy tag team from Sweden. While an entertaining pair of workers, both are equally high energy in and out of the ring, and their hard-partying lifestyle may catch up to them sooner than later. Of the two, Uleg wrestles in a more technical style, though he still has good speed to use against bigger workers.</p><p>

Finisher: Bearzerker Splash (Second Turnbuckle Splash), Bear Trap (Crossface)</p><p>

Personality: Don't recall what the presets are, but something of a hard partier. Worse backstage than Olaf.</p>

<p>A few things I noticed that could need some changes:</p><p> </p><p>

1) A minor typo in Richard Sutherland bio: "As Richard entered his late twenties he became the on-screen representative of the AWF as well as his father, although in story terms he often disagreed with the man whom <strong>sired</strong> him."</p><p> </p><p>

2) Guiseppe Montolivo should be Giuseppe Montolivo.</p><p> </p><p>

3) Not trying to force things, but given what is Catch As Can Catch Academy, I think you should check what means <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cacca" rel="external nofollow">CACCA</a> in Italian.</p><p> </p><p>

As I'm working as well on a big fictional universe, great, great job you have done so far in these years.</p>

<p>What the hell, I'll add one more. Never know when you might need more characters. This is one of my more...out there creations. Haven't used him in a long time.</p><p> </p><p>

Name: Reverend Clayton "King" Fisher</p><p> </p><p>

Age: 45</p><p>

Ethnicity: Swedish/White</p><p> </p><p>

Appearance: picture a younger John Waters. Mustache and all.</p><p> </p><p>

Bio: The Right Reverend Clayton "King" Fisher is the ring-name of Linus Claesson, a young worker from Visby. At his first ever show, he was asked what his gimmick would be. Having never thought about it before, he decided to base his image on a character he had seen in several blaxploitation films during his youth. The idea of the Reverend was that he was a jive talking, sleazeball preacher from America. The gimmick was surprisingly popular, his attempts at a "southern accent" tend to fall short as he speaks no English whatsoever, and thus cannot perform the accent. Despite this, he's been playing the character for more than twenty years, which has probably helped to conceal the fact that he's a pretty mediocre worker.</p><p> </p><p>

Finisher: Söta Jesus Sparar (Sweet Jesus Saves)- High altitude moonsault with arms spread like a cross.</p><p>

Secondary Finisher: Hallick Slag (Pimp Slap)- Top-rope flying chop.</p><p> </p><p>

Personality: Free spirit</p><p> </p><p>

Alter-Ego: The Vicar of Visby. (A more toned down, far less potentially racially insensitive version of the character, to be used in less risque promotions/situations. Yes, based on the Vicar of Dibley.)</p>

<p>The Londonverse lives. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Good to see. I've just started to play TEW again after a long break and of course i went the L-verse route, getting to book CPW. I find that CPW is a straight forward old school NWA almost WCW set up. They need new starts but i'm pushing Hurst to take the Heavy Weight Belt even if he's 9 years into decline. It's been fun to book so far. Once i hit a full year i'll do a recap in the thread. I'm no good at a full dynasty but i figure i should at least drop something to show i'm still happy with the mod. My SJW save got corrupted and i had to delete it, but i had a ton of fun with it. I put a write up in the thread. </p><p> </p><p>

I'm glad there's more to come and looking forward to it. O</p>

With that being said, here is the template for submission. Please note that whilst only 3 will make it into the promotion, others may well wind up as free agents in the database:</p><p> </p><p>
