ENTRANCE & ATTIRE
Entrance Music:
"This Is The New Shit" by Marilyn Manson
Ring Attire:
In the ring, Joshua wears black tights that stop mid-thigh, with yellow trim at the waist and mid-thigh.
Ring Entrance:
The lights flicker in the building as the chorus of "This Is The New Shit" by Marilyn Manson begins to play throughout the arena. From behind the curtain, out walks Joshua Black. Wearing his OFFICIAL FGA t-shirt (available for sale!) over his usual black and gold singlet, he smiles at the crowd as the boos rain down. He takes his time walking to the ring before rolling in under the bottom rope and then jumping on the second turnbuckle in the corner to once again smile at the crowd as he raises his arms up in the air. He hops down and takes off the t-shirt as the music dies down.

Joshua thinks he's the greatest thing to not only his the wrestling ring, but the world. He's a wrestling purist, as well. He hates "garbage" wrestling, he hates "spotfest" guys.. always willing to cheat, however.
Bio:
Joshua Black was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. He didn't come from a rich family, but they most certainly weren't poor. We'll define the situation as "well off." Anyways, Joshua's father was a varsity wrestler for his high school, and Arizona State University. As a child, Joshua's father would take him down to the basement and teach him how to wrestle. He showed Joshua holds, counters, everything he knew. They would regularly watch pro wrestling on tv and learn more just from watching.
As a freshman in high school, Joshua tried out for the wrestling team, and easily made varsity on the wrestling team. It was during that year that he met his future wife, Heather. Heather was a cheerleader, and instantly fell for Joshua. She started becoming his personal cheerleader at all the wrestling meets, and the two became inseparable. During his years in high school, Joshua rarely lost a match. After high school, he had considered following in his father's footsteps and attending ASU, but decided instead to attend wrestling school to get into professional wrestling.
Johnny Windham was a local wrestling promoter who would regularly attend wrestling meets of different high schools and colleges in the state to try to recruit talent. He saw a couple of Joshua's matches and was very impressed. He talked with Joshua, and when he learned about Joshua's plans after graduation, told him a school he could attend and learn from a few local pros.
Joshua started wrestling school the day after graduation, not taking time to enjoy the summer vacation. Heather, of course, followed along. The two were married about a week after graduation. Now, Joshua plans to seek out his career choice and is bringing Heather and Johnny along for the ride.
