Entrance Theme:
The Warriors Call by Volbeat
Entrance Description (please keep simple and adequate for an indie promotion):
The crowd quiets with anticipation as a few moments of silence pass. Cutting through the silence, the opening drum sequence of "The Warrior's Call" by Volbeat thuds loudly throughout the building. As the guitar riffs begin, Oliver Price emerges through the curtain to a mixture of cheers and boo's. Shirtless, Oli's upper body is mostly covered by an Irish flag that he has draped over his shoulders. A few steps towards the ring Oliver stops and looks upward, closing his eyes and mouthing a quick prayer before lowering his head and focusing on the ring. As he makes his way down he ignores the fans who are looking to slap hands with him. Quickly he ascends the steel ring steps and enters into the ring, removing the flag from his shoulders and handing it off to the referee before dropping to his knees in the middle of the ring, extending his arms outward before pointing upward to the sky, making the catholic cross symbol on his chest immediately afterward before standing up and moving to his own corner where he proceeds to go through his pre-match warm up.
Personality (a brief description of your wrestler as a person and an athlete):
Hot tempered and mouthy. Oliver has a fuse that is so short that one wrong word will set him off. Furthermore, he's got a mouth on him that only plays into his love of fighting and getting into fights. To a certain extent he stands up for what he believes is right, but that does not necessarily mean he will always be seen as a "good guy." He's fiercely loyal to family, as those he considers to be in his inner circle are the only ones who can get away with being blunt to him without setting him off, and even more loyal to his country.
Alignment:
Neutral
Allies (if any):
None at the moment.
Rivals (if any):
None at the moment
Strengths (2 or more):
1. Resilience: Given the environment he grew up in, as well as some of the work he's done outside of the wrestling business, Oliver knows how to take a beating, get back up and keep going. He's tough as nails and if you're going to keep him down for long it's going to take one hell of an effort.
2. Desire: With the death of his father a few years earlier, and being the oldest child in his family, Oliver has taken on the role of bread winner for his entire family. Wrestling is not just a job to Oli. It's not simply something he does because he enjoys it. Success is more than just a goal for Oliver, it consumes him.
Weaknesses (2 or more):
1. Easily distracted: Because of his temperamental nature, Oliver tends to be easily distracted while in the wrestling ring. Say something about his family or something along those lines and he'll loose his focus and start swinging wildly, trying to end the match in one punch.
2. Speed: He's not the fastest guy in the ring. Those with aerial ability, who use it to their advantage, will find him struggling to keep up.
Preferred Match Type(s):
Street fights
No DQ
Last Man Standing
I quit.
Least Favourite Match Type(s):
Ladder matches.
Wrestling Style:
Oliver is a brawler with some technical ability. He'd much rather his matches turn into fights than technical showcases, though.

Biography (extended background on your character):
The son of two poor Irish factory workers, Fergal and Shona Price, Oliver has never known prosperity or true comfort in his entire life. What he has known, however, is loyalty and a strong familial bond further developed by the roots that Oliver's father had with the Irish Republican Army. He's fiercely loyal to his country and to his family (he has six younger brothers and sisters) and is determined to provide them with a better life than what he has. As a child he was in and out of trouble, known on the streets for his ability to take a beating and keep on coming. It wasn't until he met a friend who introduced him to the professional wrestling industry that he started to hone his talent and his ability. His natural athleticism has lead to some success on the independent circuit but he believes he can achieve more than what he has up to this point.
