ENTRANCE & ATTIRE
Entrance Music:
"Intro" by The xx
Ring Attire:
'Combat' style wrestling boots, cargo fatigue pants, black t-shirt (removed at start of match). Wrists and hands heavily taped with black electrical tape.
Ring Entrance:
As 'Intro' by The xx begins to play, 'The Natural' Desmond Astor slowly makes his way out from behind the curtain, seemingly as chill as the music itself. He makes his way to the ring, slowly, slapping hands with the fans as he does. He makes a full lap of the ring in this fashion, taking his sweet time, before sliding in and taking a seat in one corner, where he remains until the opening bell...
CHARACTER BACKGROUND
Pic Base:
Sam Witwer
Gimmick & Bio:
Desmond Orin Astor is not what he appears to be. At first glance, Des comes off as the prototypical wrestling babyface, the cookie-cutter good guy. This is only through conscious and deliberate effort on his part. Upon closer examination, 'smart' wrestling fans may realize that he is a bit of an asshole... ultraviolent and arrogant to a fault. He has few friends and has been arrested a number of times for violent confrontations, bar brawls and such, outside of the wrestling world. But the real truth actually lies much deeper. The fact is that Desmond Astor is a total sociopath... a man who feels nothing except the joy he gets from inflicting pain and suffering upon others. He relishes the sight of blood, both his own and that of others, and it is that passion that has led him to the world of professional wrestling. Despite this, Des always presents himself... to wrestling fans, the wrestling press, and to his co-workers... as the white-hatted cowboy, as everyone's hero.
After traveling around the world working short-lived contracts for promotions around the globe, he has come to FGA. It is unclear how long 'The Natural' Desmond Astor will be able to keep up his facade, before he is revealed as his true self, quite simply, a natural disaster.
