A huge fan of Cardiff City and the Welsh national team, his first love was football, but then he started watching wrestling and fell in love with it. So much so that he didn’t go to any university in order to dedicate full time to training in order to become a wrestler. Once his training was completed he started wrestling in various small promotions near his area in hopes to become the best wrestler in the world.

LOWRI MOSS

Wrestler Name: Lowri Moss
Ring Name: Lowri Moss
Nickname(s): None
Gender: Female
Picbase: Nixon Newell
D. O. B.: 4th May 1995
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 142lbs

Years Pro: 0
Accolades/Accomplishments: None

Hometown: Llanelli
Billed From: Llanelli
Entrance Theme: "Whirring" by The Joy Formidable
Entrance Description: "Whirring" by The Joy Formidable plays over the PA system, and once the song's intro finishes, through the curtains - and out onto the stage - walks Lowri Moss, who is greeted by a cheer. Lowri takes a moment to scan the crowd, before making her way towards the ring, and as she does so, she slaps the hands of some of the fans that reach out to her. After arriving at ringside, Lowri climbs the steps up onto the ring apron, and then steps through the ropes, before heading for one of the corners and climbing to the second rope. There are further cheers and more applause for Lowri from the fans, and she soaks in the reaction for several seconds, as she again surveys the crowd.

Personality: A wrestling fan not long out of university, Lowri is a naïve but plucky rookie, eager to live out her dream of being a professional wrestler - see Strengths/Weaknesses for more information on her traits.
Alignment: Face
Allies (if any): None
Rivals (if any): None

Strengths (2 or more):
Hard-working: Lowri can sometimes appear to be too relaxed, but once she gets to work, in the ring or in the gym, she works as hard as anyone, to try to be the best version of herself she can be;
Dexterity: Lowri has an aptitude for wrestling, and though still raw, she possesses more finesse than may be expected of someone with so little experience;
Enthusiasm: as a long-time fan, Lowri's passion for wrestling is evident to anyone who spends any time with her, and she has a strong desire to have a successful career in the sport.
Weaknesses (2 or more):
Inexperience: having never previously wrestled competitively - prior to joining the UKWF - Lowri is undeniably lacking in experience, and so is susceptible to making rookie errors;
Untested resolve: so far in her short career, things have mostly gone in Lowri's favour, so it remains to be seen how she will cope with disappointment, and how her confidence will be affected;
Blind courage: Lowri tends to always stand up for herself, and will rarely shirk a challenge, but while this can be admirable, it can also lead to her ending up in situations that she would be better advised to avoid.
Preferred Match Type(s): Yet to be determined for the young rookie.
Least Favourite Match Type(s): See above.

Wrestling Style: All Rounder
Finisher(s) (max. 2 + desperation/big match finisher):

Biography:
A fan of the sport since a young age, Lowri Moss commenced her wrestling training while she was at university - she could often be found training at times when she should instead have been studying. After graduating from Cardiff University in 2016, she began to search for a promotion that would be willing to offer her the chance to fulfill her dream of becoming a professional wrestler - a search that would result in her joining the roster of the United Kingdom Wrestling Federation.

PENDRAGON

Team Name: Pendragon
Team Members: Lowri Moss, Neal Durden
Combined Weight: 322 lbs

Accolades/Accomplishments: None

Alignment: Face
Allies (if any): Blaise Fader
Rivals (if any): None
Dynamic: Originally put together as a team without having any say in the matter, Neal and Lowri have since grown to be best friends, and more...

Team Strengths (2 or more):
1. Resiliency/Heart: Few would say they’re not stubborn. They think they’re resilient and a lot of people agree with them, as they’ve shown a lot of heart and resiliency in dire moments, which shows this a team you have to completely knock out to get rid off in any given match.
2. Familiarity: They were trusted together right from the word go. They know every quirk, weakness and strength of the other, and they play up to hide and show them respectively. Lowri knows where Neal would be for a move well before he commits to it, and vice versa. The fact that they’re a couple outside of wrestling helps reinforce this point.
3. Speed: What they lack in strength they make up with hard hitting speed moves. Yes, they can wrestle a technical style at times, but most of the time you’ll catch these two either striking you fast and furious style, or flying around the ring.
Team Weaknesses (1 or more):
1. Overall inexperience: Even if they were trusted together from the word go, they’re both still in their second year as wrestlers. Combine that with the fact that Neal will be 20 in June and Lowri isn’t older for a lot, you have a very capable, but inexperienced team.
2. Not the most powerful tag team out there: Yes, they hit hard, yes they’re as resilient and hard to beat as the come, but they can be manhandled with ease by powerhouses. Their combined weight is, at times, as much as a super heavyweight would weight. They try to hide this fact as well as they can using their speed, but if one of them gets caught, it could spell trouble.
3. “More than a tag-team”: The fact that Neal and Lowri are a couple outside of wrestling can be used against them at times. They will care for the other’s well being and this could lead into some dastardly strategies from opponents who could care less, or to one of them losing focus in a key moment of the match if an injury were to happen to one of them.
Preferred Match Type(s): To be determined (as a team, they have yet to compete in anything other than standard tag matches).
Least Favourite Match Type(s): See above.

Team Finishers (max. 2):
1. That Move (Superkick / Tiger Suplex combination)
2. Dewin Ddraig Gleiniog (Double Shining Wizard)
Team/Tandem Moves:
1. Aided Hurricanrana Somersault Leg Drop (Either Lowri or Neal sits atop the turnbuckle, the other performs a hurricanrana on the one sitting on the turnbuckle, using the momentum to hit their opponent with a leg drop)
2. Stereo Moonsaults
3. Stereo Rolling Cutters

Biography:
Neal Durden and Lowri Moss joined the roster of the United Kingdom Wrestling Federation within a couple of weeks of one another in August 2016, and the two youngsters from South Wales were immediately paired together as a tag team, making their collective debut in the UKWF at the beginning of the following month.

Since the beginning of 2017, the two have branched out, making appearances in other promotions around the globe. In particular, in addition to the UKWF, Lowri and Neal now also compete as a duo in the US in Frontier Grappling Arts, as well as part of a trio in the Germany-based New Kingdom PRO, where together with Blaise Fader they are known collectively as Wrestling, Innit?
