I'm already going to apply two or 3 characters myself. One to tag with Ciphra's, one for the main event, and maybe one for the mid-card... Though I might just make the main event guy start in th emid card.

Name: The Masked Magician (Andrew Macdonald)
Hometown: Warrnambool, Australia
Height: 6.4 feet
Weight: 85 kilograms

Alignment: Face
Gimmick: A man of magic that has turned his attentions towards the ring, The Masked Magician stands for more then just entertainment. Dedicated to bringing a sense of mystery and wonder back into the lives of everyday people, he also attempts to embody the virtues of honor and loyalty by always holding true to his word, even in the face of adversity or unpopularity; The boo's of the crowd may sting, but breaking your word hurts forever.

He will also spend some of his spare time putting on performances to help raise money for charitably causes, often aimed at the curing of horrible illnesses.

Entrance Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhJGXzOE5fQ
Entrance Description: Raising up out of the stage, hands raised so that he looks like a Y until the lyrics of the song begin at which point his hands would be brought down as if throwing something and causing the stage to light up with golden fireworks. Walking towards the ring at a measured, slow powerful pace The Masked Magician will climb in and start to raise his hands again as another wave of fireworks launches out of the corners of the ring.

Wrestling Style: A wrestling technician with a flare for slight of hand tricks.
Finishing Move:
Now you see it - Starting with what appears to be a simple slap to the face that turns the face, it is quickly followed up but one hell of an uppercut.

Magic Box - A submission grapple. With the opponent face down on the ground, The Masked Magician will come up behind them, sitting on their back as he slides his arms under their armpits and locks his hands together behind their head before pulling backwards.

Signature Moves:
Abra - A combo of four fast but brutal strikes to the head.
Cadabra - A combo of four fast by brutal strikes to the head, followed by a knee into the sol-perplexes.
Alakazam - Four fast but brutal strikes to the face, followed by a knee to the sol-perplexes and chained by running towards the ropes and using them to pick up speed before delivering an axe kick to the back of the bent over target's head.

In Ring Attire: A red leather jacket emblazoned with a wolf head on the back that is always taken off before the match. Black long jeans, Red leather fingerless gloves, a black and red pair of wrestling boots.
Name: Mitchell Wolf
Hometown: London, England.
Height: 6'2
Weight: 220lbs

Alignment: Heel

Gimmick: In the ring, Wolf is a great power wrestler that takes things too far in Kayfabe. More often than not he is the heel that will put a face into "recovery" for a few months for either serious injury recovery or if they need time off. He takes after his namesake is generally relentless in his offence, always striking and always looking for the next submission to lock in. He enjoys playing to the crowd as the boo him, literally feeding of the heat his actions give him. He has played the anti hero Face before but he could never be considered a Babyface.

Outside of the ring, Wolf is possibly the nicest guy you could ever meet. Acutely aware that Kayfabe doesn't exist, Wolf ensures any fans that see him outside are treated all the same...with a smile and more often than not, an imitation of his signature finisher for a good photo op.

Entrance Description: A wolf's howl sounds out, low static following after. Wolf walks to the start of the ramp, tapping his toe against the ramp and staring towards the ring. He runs a gloved hand through his hair as a loud peeling riff sounds out and heavy rock music plays out. Wolf walks slowly down the ramp till he reaches the ring. Sliding in to the ring, he circles around slowly as another wolf howl sounds out. He moves to the middle of the ring and throws his head back, howling, before pulling off his jacket and heading to his corner.

Wrestling Style: Power wrestler focusing on submissions.
Finishing Move:
Wolves of War: A Torture rack with extended theatrics, a thrown back head and a loud howl when Wolf notices a groggy opponent and another when he inevitably slams the opponent down.
Wolf Bite: A Swinging Reverse STO with theatrics. As he bends his opponent back, he throws his head back and howls.
Signature Moves:
Howling - Not necessarily a move, but something that he constantly pulls upon by reinforcing his gimmick.
Stinger Splash
Big Boot
Bulldog Lariat


Still filling stuff out but this is my guy.

@Bright_Ops I really like the look of your character. The only thing I'll suggest is adding a description for your "Abra, Cadabra, Alakazam" signature moves because the names don't really give us much to go on. Once that's done, feel free to post him in the Characters section.

@Musoka Looks good so far, when you're done adding the finishing touches go ahead and post the CS in the Characters section.

@Sloth Can Kintaro speak English? If not would you be giving him a manager, or would he be sort of a silent character with a mystique to him? As for the whole facepaint and elaborate costume gimmick, what if we utilized him like Finn Balor in NXT? Where he wears the face paint only for certain matches. If would give those matches a real big fight feel.

As a general comment I really like the "global" feel we are giving to GPW. We have some guys form the UK, an Australian and a Japanese wrestler and I think that's cool. I wonder if I'm the only person in this thread who is actually from North America in real life? (I'm Canadian btw)

Name: Michael Starblazer

Hometown: Kansas City Missouri

Height: 5'8

Weight: 189 lbs

Alignment: Heel

Gimmick: Extremely arrogant underdog who recently joined the business. Setting the bar high for himself Michael came into the GPW fast and hard making it clear his goal was to take the title for himself despite being the newest member to the GPW. He goes around talking trash to anyone that gets in his way and even has (Jordan's guy) supporting his goal for the title. The two formed a tag team which Michael might be the one with less experience, but he makes up for it with his raw ability to be absolutely relentless. Though he be physically the weakest in the GPW he's proven that with speed, cunning, and the know how, you can take on anyone and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty to do it. So not only will he go for the championship title, he and (Jordan's guy again) will claim the tag team title for themselves!

Entrance Music: Runnin'
Entrance Description: Walks out with an arrogant smile or smirk in just a t-shirt with random insults on it, a pair of black cargos an a pair of really nice black sneakers. Takes off the shirt and just casually throws it off to the side after he's in the ring.

Wrestling Style: High Flyer

Finishing Move:
Midnight Splash (Just a phoenix splash really with a little extra flare to it)

Signature Moves:
Flying Dropkick (Using turnbuckle or ropes)
Flying Lariat (Also from turnbuckle or ropes)
Satellite: A.K.A. False Star: A move in which Michael pretends to be too exhausted to move waiting for his victim to go to capitalize and right when they're helpless knees them in either the head or another vulnerable area which is usually followed through with him getting up and giving them a DDT
Tilt A Whirl DDT

(Being a rookie more signatures and last finisher will be added as he goes!)

Also I'm from North America as well lol
And wanted to get your feed back from where I am so far, pretty sure it's done as long as Jordan is cool with everything but yeah lol I've been up for 27 hours straight now so who knows!

Better?


Yeah looks great. I actually have a pretty cool angle in mind for the character already, I'll run some thing by you once we get closer to starting up.

I would say that he does, only it's obviously accented. It's when he slowly falls back in to the Akira character that he becomes silent and methodical, though I'm not sure if giving him a Paul Bearer would work that well, heh.

Regarding his facepaint and entrance attire, I think for the time being, which is his debut period, he'd come out in simpler stuff, his tights and a vest with a logo or two? For the purpose of kayfabe, he's just some dude from Japan trying to forge a new identity for himself after his time in Japan with lingering habits from the good old days. (Good old days? Shit the dude's been wrestling since he was a teenager, so damn young.) If the GPW eventually booked him to go full Great Akira, I'm sure he'd bust out the craziest stuff he could, gotta teach these muricans how Japan rolls. No but really, I'm sure the facepaint and over-the-top attire will come in due time.

On an aside, if you've got time, go look up some of Muta's entrances/entrance attires, the pageantry is insane.

i guess i’ll see this as his face claim

Name: Drayden
Hometown: Chicago, Illinois
Height: 6’ 7”
Weight: 300 lbs

Alignment: Anti-hero face-ish I s’pose. Hard to place him since he just comes in and fights. I guess it’ll be more based off of what his mouthpiece says and who he’s working against.
Gimmick: He’s here to fight and win, nothing else. He goes out and immediately takes it to the opponent, often starting before the bell has even rang. In promos, he doesn’t talk too much, instead letting his mouthpiece do most of the work for him. Wants to be the best and knows he has the potential to do so, focused solely on winning the GPW World Title and never, ever letting it go. He will fight anyone at anytime and at anyplace to achieve this goal(possible idea is he holds weekly open challenges, or something). There’s a lot of chest pounding involved when he’s working his match, and chants of things like ‘fuck ‘em up, Drayden, fuck ‘em up’ commonly fill the arenas.

Very old school in the sense that he stays in character off-screen too. Wrestles with gloves like Undertaker has(not sure what they’re called?) and singlet similar to Kurt Angle, including taking the straps down when business is about to pick up.
Entrance Music: boop might change it later on though.
Entrance Description: Walks out and does the bork dance while sparks fall behind him, then cracks his neck and sprints down to the ring, slides under the ropes and gets straight to business if his opponent is already there.

Wrestling Style: Powerhouse/grappler, works very stiff
Finishing Move: Spinebuster, pop-up powerbomb
Signature Moves: Spear, belly-to-belly suplex, German suplex, lariat, Hell’s gate, big boot, Ankle lock, shooting star press

This isn’t my tag-team guy, I’m still working on him. And if Drayden seems similar to Brock Lesnar, he’s supposed to. I gave him a bunch of moves that people like Lesnar, Goldberg, Cena, Batista use. Big dudes. Do you want me to throw together a thing for the manager too, or no? I can do either. I can also change him if you don't want him to be so Borky.

Here's a ridiculous entrance for your enjoyment. Fucking dinosaur and final fantasy sword.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TJeX4EVd9Q

@Jordan If you want to make a separate profile for his mouth piece that's fine, but you could also just state his name and describe him a bit in Drayden's gimmick section. They're basically a package deal anyways. Other than that, I'm glad to have Drayden on board, he seems like a force to be reckoned with in this tournament. Looking forward to seeing you tag-team guy as well and I'm assuming he's going to be sort of a mentor character to Michael Starblazer. Depending on the character, I'm wondering if this tag-team could maybe be part of a faction similar to Evolution or the Horsement, backing up a top level main event heel. Just something to think about. I'm sure it'll work either way.
