ENTRANCE & ATTIRE
Entrance Music:
"Black Skinhead" by Kanye West
Ring Attire:
Bike-style shorts, with a variety of color/trim combinations (silver/gold, gold/silver, blue/silver&white, white/blue&silver), with kneepads in the base color and black boots.
Ring Entrance:
Kanye West's "Black Skinhead" starts up, with the lights having an almost "strobe" effect when the first drum rhythm hits. After a moment, Deron Franklin...is not the first person through the curtain. Instead it's his manager(/"hype man") O'Shay Edwards, shouting almost incoherently at the camera about how great Deron is. Behind him comes Franklin, wearing a LDFC standard issue sweatshirt. The pair make their way to the ring, O'Shay going all the way around the ring to mouth off at the front row fans while Deron does a front flip over the top rope, landing on his feet and removing his sweatshirt. He hands it off to Edwards as he prepares for the match at hand.
CHARACTER BACKGROUND
Pic Base:
ACH
Manager:
O'Shay Edwards, childhood friend and "hype man" for Deron. Most promos will actually be handled by O'Shay, known for his tendency to run his mouth...all the time.
Gimmick:
Cocky heel who isn't afraid to cheat, and instead flaunts that he's not only athletically superior (a star basketball and football player in high school) but is also "smarter" than anyone he gets in the ring with.
Bio:
Deron Franklin should have it all; one of the most popular kids in high school, a two-sport star who could've gone to any (second-tier) college in his home state of Texas. Instead, as he and friend/manager/hype man O'Shay Edwards put it, the two of them threw that aside to go into pro wrestling. Having been a relative success on the small independent circuit of the Dallas area, Deron almost hit it big by gaining an agent, an entourage (which was called, appropriately, "The Derontourage") and a hint of a major wrestling contract. Unfortunately for him, something he refuses to disclose saw that come to an end, and sent him back to slumming it in Texas. Offered a chance to improve his skills and possibly gain another chance at stardom, Deron and O'Shay ventured out to North Carolina and Lions Den.
