Wrestler's Name: Collinson Alias(es): The Charismatic One Height: 5'9" Weight: 240 lbs Entrance Music:Waterproof Blonde - Just Close Your Eyes. Hometown: Sunderland, England Wrestling Style: (please select 3 at the very most - and try make them compliment each other) Speedy / High Flying / Hardcore / Some Technical / Submission Profile: Collinson was brought up in a single-parent household from the small age of five, he never saw his father since and says he has no wishes to find him or talk to him. Most of his schooling life Collinson was picked on for being different, being out-casted by fellow school pupils that was until Collinson woke up one day and decided to change and re-image himself. He decided to stop caring what others though of him, he decided to cut his long black hair into a short, spiky and blond look. He started to wear sunglasses a lot to compliment his look and pupils at school then stopped cutting him off from his groups, but Collinson declined because he lives by the theory of "If you don't like me for who i am, then don't like me for what I'm not". It was very clear Collinson changed his appearance to see the different opinions people would have of him after this change. Collinson then took up the sport of wrestling, first as a hobby and means of getting by in life, then he grew into loving the sport as a whole. He does watch wrestling quite a lot, citing Christian as his idol. However, this is the first time he wanted to make his dream happen and from what he learned from the trainers of the wrestling school he went too he took into the ring, and sometimes onto the streets. This is how Collinson gained his Hardcore side to him. Collinsons height isn't that great as opposed to others in TWO, but his weight almost makes up for it. Collinson has already declared to be a huge-hit in TWO. Entrance(s): As the lights dim down, a little flicker of yellow flashes brightly throughout the arena. Everyone in the crowd is amazed by this, as are the commentators. The music slowly starts with a countdown clock appearing on screen, counting down from 10 to 0. When the clock hits zero you hear a voice saying it's time, and then the arena turns pitch black. A single white spotlight is on the top of the ramp, while yellow and white lights flicker throughout the arena. Then Collinson appears on top of the stag, wearing his ring attire with a white hoody, with embroidery on it. The Initials CC are embodied onto the hoody. As Collinson slowly makes his way to the ring, the crowd start to cheer for Collinson. C starts to smile as he feels this is the first time he is welcomed into a group, so he plays up the crowd by high-fiving a few children sitting in the first few rows. He then takes off his hoody and gives it to one lucky fan, C then gets into the ring and does a taunt as the lights start to turn back up C is ready for his match. Normal Moves : Punches (Right Handed) Slaps to the chest (when the opponent is groggy in the corner) Dropkick Clothesline (Right and Left arm) Kick to the gut Elbow Drop from the top turnbuckle German Suplex Atomic Drop Arm-Drag Arm-Bar Signature Move(s) : Running Bulldog Spinning Kick (Trouble in Paradise-type kick) Collinson Lock (Cobra Clutch) Finishing Move(s) : COL-lision (Basically its CrossRhodes) Taunts: Slapping his chest, then raising his right arm out to the audience. Looking at his opponent lying on the floor and pointing and laughing. Putting his right-hand on his forehead and looking at the audience (Christian-type taunt). Known To Dislike: Suck-Ups Show-Offs anyone who thinks they are better than Collinson Cage. Has Teamed With: N/A Has Feuded With: N/A Debut: N/A Favourite Weapon: Lead Pipe Titles Held: N/A Trivia: N/A Alignment: Face

Couple of things... firstly, could you try any harder to be Christian? We already have a 'Cage' on the roster, so you may want to change the surname to avoid misunderstandings. Also you'll need a different guy to reprsent you, Christian is taken by Boyo, a TWOStars legend. Otherwise no big problems for me.

What about calling him Collinson Charisma? I can only picture that first name on it;s own attached to a Brazilian football player.

I think that essentially that's a good base. Can I suggest you add some kind of submission to your sig moves? The reason I say is that it's always a needed option spot wise and also should you ever come into an I quit/Submission match.
by putting it as a sig move people can break out of it, it isn't a finisher level. think like the Rock's sharpshooter. It's ugly and not often used but it's there and is useful for people. It doesn't have to be an amazing one per say either.

As long as JJ or DS say so then sounds good to me. Make sure you have a good read of a few of the previous ones to get a feel for the style we're looking for.

Hey man - let me say I'm very chuffed you went with the face gimmick . I like the theme music, I like the size approach and that he isn't a complete highflier, I think that you've got a great idea of where you're going with him and love Ryder as the base. My one problem is the Cobra Clutch - unfortunately two of our guys use it, one of them as a major part of his arsenal so I'd rather you didn't use it. I'm desperately trying to think of moves to suggest instead - and I'm not totally sure... my one thought is the Crossface? As Benoit showed over and over again it's a great move to pull out of nowhere on any size of opponent, and nobody [oddly, actually] on the roster uses it. About the name - how would you feel about "Chris Collinson" instead? For me Collinson is a long name with a lot of syllables and, I think, would work better as a surname. Otherwise I'm totally happy for you to go onto the next task.

I counter the name thing, it can easily be shortened to Col which opens up the milatary shortnening of colonel. So insteaqd of Captain Charisma he could be Colonel charisma or Col. Charisma.
Plus there's a good amount of fun to be had with people calling him Collin and him hating it.

T'was just a suggestion - names for the most part I'm happy for people to use whatever they want since, well, it's THEIR character, haha. .

@joethejobber seems like the Cobra Clutch is already used by 2 others, i'd take the cross face for my character. Yeah, the face is something different to what i'm used too. So i thought i'd give it a try. Megz, Col. Charisma it is.

Excellent - then please feel free to post your first task whenever you like.
It's just a wee introductory promo - and feel free to use either Todd Grisham, Josh Matthews or Christy Hemme as the person doing the interviewing, if you want someone at all.
