Poppin' Buyrates Since 1996
[ *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * ]
In the past, one of the things that the AWA is famous for (I think!) is the I Make ‘Em, You Take ‘Em lists of characters that are created by myself (or other AWA handlers) and then offered up to the rest of the e-world for handling.

I haven’t done one in a while since the roster’s been pretty full but it seemed like a good time to do something to get a few fresh bodies in the mix.

I decided to do a little bit of a mix-up here. At the bottom of this list, you’re going to see my Top Five IME,YTE that have either never been used or have been used, abandoned, and I want to see someone else give them a swing.

At the top, however, is going to be a list of 5 OTHER homages that I’d love to see added to the AWA roster. These aren’t fully fleshed out apps but rather just a concept that you can take and run with.

HOMAGES
----------------

THE REAL AMERICAN HERO
Take one part Real American, one part flag-waving 2x4 carrying tough guy, one part bus riding former bodybuilder - stuff ‘em all together in a melting pot and you create the All-American hero who will defend his country at all costs against all enemies foreign and domestic, MAGGOTS!
BONUS: You receive a bonus point from yours truly if you use “Born In The USA” as entrance music despite it not being a very patriotic song

IT’S TIME, IT’S TIME, IT’S HIS TIME
The AWA does not lack for giants... but at the moment, we don’t have a true fat dude with an attitude. I love my memories of Vader when he was getting the uberpush in WCW before Hogan arrived and screwed it up for everyone. Picture Vader around the Cactus Jack feud and we’re probably in the right ballpark.
BONUS: You receive a bonus point from yours truly if you have some gigantic mask that serves as part of the entrance only

I SAY, OLD CHAP
Cross Lord Steven Regal with the Double Eye’s own Lord Byron and you have your brass-cane toting Aristocrat with the technical wizardry to tie people up in knots, making them beg for mercy before submission.
BONUS: Gotta have the cane. Absolutely gotta have the cane.

SNOOOOOORRRRRRRT!
THE ULLLLLLLLLLLTIMATE WARRIOR! Plus, like I said in the other thread, I think it should have a degree of G.I. Joe’s Serpentor in the mix. “The new Warrior created from the DNA of the greatest in-ring Warriors that have come before him - Hardin, Thunder, Claw, Temple, Annis, etc.  With their DNA combined, there was an immaculate birth of this Warrior, chiseled out of pure power and muscle by the Gods themselves, and sent forth to conquer the world of professional wrestling for the people.”
BONUS: The tassels! Gotta have the tassels!

SUUUUPE, SUUUUUPE, SUPERFLY!
I’m thinking a nice mix of Snuka and Meng here. The super tough bad ass but also beloved by the fans for his high impact style. Super proud of his heritage and always willing to go to battle.
BONUS: Gotta have the Superfly splash

Alright... so there’s those five. But what about the five I Make ‘Ems? Let’s find the five that I’m still waiting for someone to use.

Character Name: “King Of Old School” Garry Allen
Height: 5’10
Weight: 240
Hometown: Clarksville, Tennessee
Physical Description: Allen’s best-known feature is his amazingly bright bleached blonde hair that has a tendency to turn bright, bright red when his scarred forehead gets split open - which is quite often.

Face/heel/?: Heel

Manager [if applicable]: Possibly! Maybe a valet?

Theme Music:
Ring Entrance [please write in cut/paste form]:

Wrestler Type [brawler/high flyer/etc]: Allen can mat-wrestle but typically chooses not to. You can expect a lot of brawling out of him.

What real-life wrestler is your character similar to in the ring?: Steve Corino, Jerry Lawler, Adam Pearce

Finisher [normal finisher; the move your guy uses in the standard match to wrap things up]: Clarksville Crab - your standard Boston Crab, a tribute to fellow Clarksville native Sam Willis

Signature Moves [no more than 5 please]
Old School Stomp - Garvin Stomp
Middle rope fistdrop
Running kneelift
Spinning toehold

Other moves [10-25]
Middle rope punches to the corner opponent. Allen will count them out himself, mockingly clapping at the crowd as he finishes
Cheating - chokes, ropeburns, tights pulled
Belly to back suplex
Russian legsweep
Over the knee backbreaker
Oklahoma Roll
Airplane Spin
Northern Lights Suplex
Atomic Drop
Facewash kicks in the corner

Three Strengths:
Technical skills - he may not use them much these days but at one time, Allen was considered one of the best technicians in the world. When he does bust them out, the opponent is usually caught off-guard and in big trouble.
Toughness - people tend to take him too lightly considering his size but he’ll go toe to toe with anyone in the game
Intelligence - It often seems like Allen is a step ahead of his opponent. That’d be wrong. He’s usually three or four steps ahead of them.

Three Weaknesses:
Cowardice - Allen’s not a big fan of the odds being against him and has no problem taking a countout or a DQ if he feels like it’s the best strategy for him.
Easy bleeder - the scarred-up forehead makes him likely to split open at any time
Old school style - Allen has a love of the 80s wrestling style and has adopted very few “newer” moves or strategies. He disdains high flying above all others though.

Profile(History of your character): Garry Allen has made no friends for himself over the years. He came into the sport in the mid-90s as a young, skilled mat technician and soon found himself overwhelmed by a sea of hardcore and high flying talent. Skills like Allen’s were no longer valued in this era. Embittered, Allen retreated to the indy scene, working small towns and little buildings for small payoffs. He clung to his mat wrestling roots for several years until a particularly nasty feud turned bloody. Sidelined with an injury, Allen watched a ton of old wrestling DVDs and found new inspiration. When he returned, he did so as the “King Of Old School” and made a big reputation for himself in the “Internet Age” of the early 2000s. Now in his mid-30s, Allen has done all he can on the indy scene and is looking for the big payday to set him up for the rest of his life.

***********

Character Name: MISTER Oliver Strickland
Height: 6'0
Weight: 245
Hometown: Glastonbury, Connecticut
Physical Description: Strickland's not going to win any bodybuilding contests but he's very well-toned for a man of his age especially. Very little body fat. Strickland's form is built for endurance.

Face/heel/?: Heel

Manager [if applicable]: Strickland is accompanied to the ring by Vanessa, a far-too-young-for-him piece of eye candy who mostly serves to remove his robe and then politely clap for him. If she interferes, it'll be in the form of distraction and not physically getting involved. However, her neckline has been known to carry a weapon (chain, brass knucks, etc.) as well as her other... assets.

Theme Music: None. Strickland refuses to buy into the modern wrestling world's showy entertainment elements - ring entrance music being one of those.
Ring Entrance [please write in cut/paste form]:

Wrestler Type [brawler/high flyer/etc]: Brilliant mat technician with no problem cheating to get back at those he feels have wronged him
What real-life wrestler is your character similar to in the ring?: A mix of Bob Backlund and Nick Bockwinkel

Finisher [normal finisher; the move your guy uses in the standard match to wrap things up]:
1) Sleeperhold - one of the best to ever slap on a sleeper
2) Spinning toehold - a punishing hold, his preferred finish
3) Fisherman suplex

Signature Moves [no more than 5 please]
1) Running atomic drop - one of Strickland's 1980s finishers
2) Running senton onto an opponent's leg
3) Butterfly suplex
4) Airplane spin
5) Running dropkick

Other moves [10-25]
Armdrag
Big knife edge chops
Sunset flip
Gutwrench suplex
Mat wrestling
Standing fist drop
Vertical suplex
Backdrop suplex
Boston Crab
Catapult into the corner

Three Strengths:
Mat skills - Strickland is a former state champion amateur wrestler with years of experience in the pro ranks as well. A true artist on the mat, Strickland will likely not be out mat-wrestled by anyone

Experience - He's seen it all and done it all. Nothing will come as a surprise to him.

Intimidation - Love him or hate him, there are very few who don't respect the name "Oliver Strickland" and what he has accomplished in his career. That creates an "aura" of sorts that can be tough to overcome.

Three Weaknesses:
Out of touch - Now eight years away from an active career, Strickland may find himself out of sorts in a modern wrestling world.

Age - Making a return to the world of wrestling after an eight year absence, this now

Profile(History of your character): Oliver Strickland was born in 1960 to very wealthy parents who saw the entire world laid out on a red carpet for their only child. Strickland grew up in a wealthy part of Connecticut and enjoyed every opportunity that money could buy for him.

At the age of 18, Strickland was accepted to Yale University where he excelled in everything he did. But on one late night study break, Strickland happened to turn on the television and catch pro wrestling action. The physical clashes between personas of good and evil were intriguing to Strickland and for the first time in his life, he disobeyed his parents' wishes. After trying to stick around school for another semester, Strickland soon dropped out and pursued a new dream - professional wrestling school. He was, of course, disowned by his family for this decision.

Strickland was trained by the legendary British "shooter", Sir Wilbur Waters, who saw something special in Strickland. After a year of training, Waters took Strickland under his wing as they went on the road for the National Grappling Federation. Waters was a top star there, a bad guy who had earned the ire of the fans with years of rule breaking tactics against their favorites. With Strickland as his on-air protege as well, the rookie found himself in a ton of high profile matches in his first year in the business, something that made him develop quicker than most.

In 1980, his second year in the business, Strickland won the Pacific Northwest Title over a local fan favorite named Billy White, injuring White's knee with the spinning toehold at the same time. Strickland dominated the Pacific Northwest for the better part of the year. His mentor, Waters, came in a few times during the year for tag matches with his protege but for the first time in his life, Strickland was truly on his own.

The success of Strickland in the Portland territory quickly earned the notice of the major promoters in the country and soon after dropping the title back to a returning Billy White in early 1981, Strickland hit the road. In 1981-82, Strickland competed in promotions in Florida, the Carolinas, the Minnesota area, and Texas - drawing big crowds on top of all of them as a rule breaker.

In 1983, Wilbur Waters invited Strickland to come to the United Kingdom with him for a six month tour. Strickland accepted his mentor's offer and the two lit up the British wrestling scene as a top tag team, winning the United Kingdom Tag Team Championship and defending it throughout the tour before dropping the titles to Crusher Wilkes and Bobby O'Martin on the last night. After the tour ended, Waters asked Strickland to open a new promotion with him in the United Kingdom. Strickland turned down his mentor, looking to return to the States. The two suffered a falling-out over the disagreement and Strickland did not speak to his mentor for several years.

In 1984, Strickland returned to the Texas territory, quickly earning the Texas State Championship. This title reign in a major territory earned Strickland a meeting with the front office of the International Wrestling Alliance. They wanted to bring Strickland aboard and put the power of the promotion behind him. Strickland quickly accepted and by the middle of 1985, he was one of the IWA's top stars, touring all over the United States.

In 1986, Strickland was scheduled to shift his home base to Southern Championship Wrestling where the Southern fans really disliked Strickland and his "upper crust" attitude. Strickland competed all over the South for the majority of the year, taking part in bloody wars with local favorite Terry Saunders. A 60 minute draw on Thanksgiving night over the Southern Heritage Title earned many Match of the Year votes in '86 despite not being the Main Event of the show.

With the arrival of 1987, Strickland became the centerpiece of SCW as owner Jim Somers expressed interest in taking the company beyond its territory into a worldwide powerhouse. Strickland struck out on behalf of Somers to try and secure talent deals worldwide. He did month-long tours in Mexico, Japan, and even made amends with his mentor during a tour of the United Kingdom. As 1987 drew to a close, Strickland won the Southern Heavyweight Title on Thanksgiving Night and pledged to defend it against any and all comers.

Christmas night saw him have to live up to that claim when his mentor, Wilbur Waters, showed up unannounced and challenged Strickland for a title match. Waters executed a brutal game plan that night, bloodying his protege badly, and ultimately winning the title with a shot from a steel chair to the head. The fans were rabid at what they saw and when an injured Strickland made his return in March of '88, he found himself in the unique position of being a fan favorite for the very first time.

Somers and SCW put everything they had behind a lengthy Waters/Strickland feud as the promoter made plans to launch a worldwide promotion - planning a tour of the United Kingdom with Waters/Strickland on top. But on Labor Day of '88, Somers died and those plans died with him.

Strickland was stunned. As SCW took the rest of 1988 off, Strickland tried to convince Somers' son, Michael, to follow his father's plans but Michael wasn't having any of it. Instead, he pulled SCW back to the bare minimum, pulling back within their old territory. A furious Strickland led a revolt against Michael Somers, splitting the roster in half and bolting to create a new promotion - International Championship Wrestling.

Strickland, as owner and operator of ICW, immediately launched the planned United Kingdom tour with himself an Wilbur Waters on top. They feuded all over the UK, drawing big houses everywhere they went, and ICW proved an instant success. When Strickland returned to the United States, he went on a talent buying spree, picking up major talent additions from all over the country.

ICW thrived as a promotion for several years, using Strickland's relationships throughout the industry as the base for big shows and big talent arrangements. Strickland's work in Japan brought several top heavyweights from the Land of the Rising Sun to America for the first time where they were huge hits. A showdown between Strickland and Yuji Gato drew 30,000 fans to a stadium in San Francisco as Strickland continued to push the boundaries of his territory out further and further.

With his sights on becoming the biggest promotion in wrestling, Strickland declared open war on his old promotion, SCW, in 1992. He frequently ran shows in SCW's territory, driving to drive them out of business with the same talent that he had picked off their roster in years prior. A big stadium show in Atlanta saw Strickland bring back one of SCW's most famed tag teams - the Rock And Roll Connection - to face one of ICW's best tag teams - The British Bruisers in the first ever ICW scaffold match. ICW drew a huge house and SCW's days appeared to be numbered.

But SCW held strong and kept fighting. They expanded their own territory, moving into areas that ICW had started to ignore during their outward push. It was a war that neither side seemed able of winning as they traded territory holds back and forth. However, on the 4th of July in 1994, Strickland was involved in a bar fight and was hospitalized as a result with a broken leg. Many in the industry speculated that the bar fight was no coincidence and that rumors of a "hit" being put out on Strickland were true. Strickland's injury hit ICW hard as he had been the top star for years for the promotion. His attempts to shift off onto the other top guys had failed and Strickland attempted an ill-advised early comeback on Christmas night, making the leg injury worse.

With 1995 on the horizon, ICW was on the ropes. Strickland was approached by Michael Somers with an offer to buy out ICW in its entirety - an offer that would make Oliver Strickland a very rich man for the rest of his life. Strickland reluctantly accepted the deal, selling his company to the man he'd split it off from.

As part of the deal, Strickland returned to SCW rings in 1995. He quickly won the Southern Heavyweight Title again and things seemed back to normal for the man from Connecticut.

However, on Thanksgiving night of 1995, Strickland's life changed forever. On that night, he was scheduled to face a young rookie named Seth Hart who wrestled under a mask with the name "Starfire." Starfire was an up and coming star that the office was very high on and some discussion had been given to having Strickland drop the title that night. Strickland was adamant against it as Hart had not paid his dues yet in his opinion. He thought it was too early and refused to do it.

But on that night, Michael Somers had other ideas. Seth Hart was kept away from the arena that night and NCAA wrestling champion Bobby Cain was brought in under the mask. Cain had no problem pinning an unaware Strickland's shoulders to the mat in just over a few minutes and ripping the title off him. An irate Strickland destroyed the ringside area and went to the locker room looking for Somers who had fled the building. A humiliated Strickland left the arena that night, never to return to SCW.

Humiliated, Strickland watched as SCW television painted him as a joke who got destroyed by the young rookie who was prancing around on television with his title. SCW was changing, trying to evolve to face new challenges from the new national powerhouses like the EMWC and IIWF. Strickland wanted no part of this new wrestling game despite offers from both national promotions. He fled to the United Kingdom, working for three years there with his old friend. As 1999 came to a close, Wilbur Waters died of cancer and Strickland found himself alone again.

At nearly forty years old, Strickland debated calling it a career but a big money offer from Japan pulled him back in. He worked in Japan for Total Japan Pro Wrestling until 2003 when a knee injury sidelined him. At this point, with all the money that he'd ever need in his bank account, Strickland officially retired.

Upon coming home to the United States, he was repeatedly honored with ceremonies and interviews. He made guest appearances for local promotions to his home in Connecticut but never agreed to anything for the bigger companies. In 2007, he attempted to restart ICW but found a poor economy waiting to sabotage his efforts. He relocated to Texas in 2009, taking a chance in opening a wrestling school in Amarillo with another old friend, Terry Shane Jr.

It is in 2011, at the age of fifty years old, that Oliver Strickland finds himself wanting to wear championship gold with honor and dignity one more time before the end of his career. Embittered by how the Southern Heavyweight Title was stripped off his waist, Strickland walks into the AWA with rage and anger surrounding everything he does. But make no mistake, the talent that Strickland possesses makes him a very dangerous threat to any title he sets his sights on.

Oh, and he’s missing his two front teeth thanks to a recent bar fight.

Background

Profile(History of your character): Bruno Bradley never wanted to be a pro wrestler. For him, it’s simply another way to make a paycheck. Bradley’s never quite been sure of where he fits in in society. Since dropping out of high school at age 16 to support a “surprise” child and his now-wife, Bradley’s taken any job he can find. He’s worked in warehouses, he’s worked on construction sites, he’s bounced at the local taverns. In 2002, Bradley caught a break when he was recruited for a bounty hunter company. Citing him a natural because of his size and speed, they trained him and then sent him out into the world to cash in on the biggest bounties.
In 2006, Bradley was sent to Japan to cash in a bounty on a rapist who had fled the country. He found him - he always did - and he returned him to the States. But while there, Bradley found himself intrigued with the world of combat fighting in Japan - Mixed Martial Arts, sumo, and of course, pro wrestling. He went to several shows - both big and small - and caught the eye of one of the local promoters. After some wining and dining, Bradley was convinced that he’d make ten times the amount of money in pro wrestling that he’d ever make bounty hunting and entered into training in Tiger Paw Pro’s Dojo.
There were days that Bradley thought of calling it quits and heading home as the brutal Japan Dojo training got to him. But he stuck it out and kept going. Eventually, his debut arrived and the fans marveled at him. His size, agility, and colorful persona earned the respect of the fans there and he quickly became of the top stars in the country.
As 2011 approaches, Bradley has his eye on returning home to the States to spend more time with his family and using some contacts, he has landed a job with the American Wrestling Alliance.

Name of wrestler: Jack Marshall
Weight: 288
Height: 6'4
Age: 32
Hometown: Jackson County, Mississippi

Description: Marshall has curly blonde hair, cut short, and a babyface that belies his experience. His torso and trunk are thick and solid, but without a whole lot of definition. Also, let's be honest here, he's got a slight beer gut that he keeps in check. To the ring he wears plain attire: forest green wrestling trunks, white boots with red seams and one black star on the outside, heavily taped wrists, and a thin, long sleeved, satiny/velvety looking ring jacket that's forest green as well and left open.

Entrance Music: "Fortunate Son" by CCR

Describe your entrance (Try and be short and to the point. No huge entrances, except for maybe supercards. We also don't have pyro or anything like that) - please make sure this is as detailed as possible because this will be cut and pasted and used as your entrance for your matches):

[The familiar opening to "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival plays as the fans cheer. Not a moment later, the curtains are parted and Jack Marshall strolls into view, hands raised in the air. Jack slyly grins, appreciative of the response he's gotten, and then continues to the ring. Marshall has curly blonde hair, cut short, and wears forest green wrestling trunks, white boots with red seams and a black star on the outside, and a similarly forest green ring jacket left open. He rolls into the ring and gravitates to the nearest corner, taking off his jacket and then stretching on the ropes.]

Alignment (Heel/Neutral/Face): Face

Gimmick: A wrestler

Story: In wrestling, there are naturals. Men who don't need to train for hours, spend years on the treadmill, guys who take to wrestling like a fish to water even if their tan sucks and their diet includes a few too many SoCo and cokes.

Jack Marshall is one of those guys.

Marshall grew up watching wrestling in Misissippi since the womb and had nothing else on his mind growing up. By the time he was 14 years old he'd been setting up the ring for two years, with his payment coming in the form of promoter Wayne Warner letting him bounce around in the ring and goof around with his friends. At that time, Jack was about 6'0 and a pudgy 250 pounds, lacking things like co ordination and dexterity, but picking up the mental aspect of the business in a minute. But by the time he was 16, Jack was 6'4 and 290, and all of his coordination came racing back to him. After a few months of being awkward and all over the place, things just clicked for Marshall and Warner started him on weekends.

Jack Marshall drew his first paycheck in wrestling at the age of 16 years, 7 months and 4 days.

Fans in the south associate the name Jack Marshall with wrestling. If there was a territory below the Mason Dixon line, Marshall competed in it. During a run through Florida, the legendary Ray Richards noticed Marshall's success and took him under his wing, teaching him the finer points of the squared circle AND the secret to the brainbuster, a move Marshall uses as a finish to this very day. Marshall served on screen as Richards' protege, and the two toured throughout the Carolinas, through his native Mississippi and into the furthest parts of Louisiana. With one last trick to show him, Richards turned on Marshall in a vicious attack and left him a bloody mess. Jack was left to chase Richards throughout the South again, finally tearing him to shreds in a brutal cage match that took place near Marshall's hometown in Biloxi, Mississippi.

Just as Marshall's star was climbing, Jack took a trip to Japan and spent two years getting paid to play the role of rampaging American mowing through the ranks. Nice job, if you can get it.

After that, Jack Marshall returned to Mississippi and went a little out of his realm, touring throughout the Northeast and a little bit into the Midwest. As GCCW starts up, Marshall has finally returned to the Southern territory he grew up in, with a little tread on the tires but still the same natural he ever was.

Character Name: Kenta Kitzukawa
Height: 5'11
Weight: 260 pounds
Hometown: Originally Osaka, Japan... now hails in Long Beach, CA
Physical Description: Black hair cut real short. Smooth body, very little muscle mass

Face/heel/?: Face

Manager [if applicable]:

Theme Music:
Ring Entrance [please write in cut/paste form]:

Wrestler Type [brawler/high flyer/etc]: Head dropper/striker
What real-life wrestler is your character similar to in the ring?: Kawada's probably the best choice

Finisher [normal finisher; the move your guy uses in the standard match to wrap things up]: Billion Dollar Bomb - Tiger Driver

Signature Moves [no more than 5 please]

Other moves [10-25]

1- Kicks... hard kicks
2- Kamengiri [leaping single foot head kick]
3- Powerbomb
4- German suplex
5- Stretch plum
6- Stiff forearms/elbows
7- Rolling elbow
8- Tiger suplex
9- Dragon suplex
10- Koppo kick

Three Strengths:
1- Striking
Hard, stiff, brutal fucking kicks, forearms, elbows, etc. These hurt, kids. Don't take them at home.

2- Conditioning
Lack of muscle mass and bulk gives Kenta the ability to go sixty minutes plus if needed.

3- Experience
Even though he's got relatively little ring time in the books, he does have the advantage of being Todd's prize student. This means he's been taught a lot... perhaps more than the others in M-Dojo thus far.

Three Weaknesses:
1- Loner
His position as Michaelson's top student has left him on the outside looking in with the others. They resent his preferred status and have isolated him as a result. Kenta's dedication to the ring... studying tapes, working out, has made him even more distant from the rest.

2- Pressure
Kenta's seen as the "ace" of M-Dojo as he steps into PWR... and as Michaelson's top student, all eyes are on him to see if he can live up to the hype.

3- Speed
Not really his game. Kenta prefers a methodical style.

Profile(History of your character):
Kenta was discovered by Michaelson while Todd was in Japan, scouting for potential J*STAR workers. Todd was captivated by the youngster's talent and when he opted to open M-Dojo instead, Kenta was one of the first students Todd signed up. After months of training with his mentor, Kenta prepares to step into PWR with the weight of the world and the expectations of the masses on his shoulders.

Got another one!

HOW MUCH CAN YA BENCH?
---
The uber-strongman... perhaps someone with an Olympic powerlifting background ala Mark Henry. His draw is that he can do super-human feats of strength. He is easily the strongest man on the roster from the moment he steps through the doors. Pretty rough around the edges though, he relies on that sheer power to get the job done.
BONUS: Gotta be a former Olympian! Take that, Sharif!
DOUBLE BONUS: I think this guy could also fill a Big Poppa Pump role of being completely out of control on the mic.

Blatantly stolen from another board discussing wrestling gimmicks.

***

The Drunk Uncle.

Simple gimmick for a veteran who had middling success, preferably in the Attitude Era. Basically, the Drunk Uncle likes to tell the younger wrestlers about all the good times he had back in the day, name drop the guys he rode the circuit with, and generally be a washed up old douche. His comeuppance is obvious enough, in the form of someone he name-dropped stopping by and having no recollection of him. Have the Drunk Uncle claim he hooked up with a classic Diva and she can humiliate him. In the ring, the Drunk Uncle uses all the most hated moves of the 90's and his finisher is an overly elaborate chop or fistdrop. Having him nail a younger wrestler's mom would be pretty funny, as well.

The uber-strongman... perhaps someone with an Olympic powerlifting background ala Mark Henry. His draw is that he can do super-human feats of strength. He is easily the strongest man on the roster from the moment he steps through the doors. Pretty rough around the edges though, he relies on that sheer power to get the job done.
BONUS: Gotta be a former Olympian! Take that, Sharif!
DOUBLE BONUS: I think this guy could also fill a Big Poppa Pump role of being completely out of control on the mic.

Morton ain't gonna like this!

IT�S TIME, IT�S TIME, IT�S HIS TIME
The AWA does not lack for giants... but at the moment, we don�t have a true fat dude with an attitude.  I love my memories of Vader when he was getting the uberpush in WCW before Hogan arrived and screwed it up for everyone.  Picture Vader around the Cactus Jack feud and we�re probably in the right ballpark.
BONUS: You receive a bonus point from yours truly if you have some gigantic mask that serves as part of the entrance only

American Mastodon: http://z7.invisionfree.com/JTF_Squaretable...dpost&p=4845541

Just sayin'.

I'll even tweak the moveset and entrance (to include a gigantic mastodon mask that shoots smoke from its trunk).

I knew that sounded familiar.

Has anyone in the history of e-w created more tag teams than you, Roger?
