HANDLER INFORMATION
NAME - Andre
WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT SEATTLE PRO? - The boss himself!
Twitter Handle - @realdeclanblack
WRESTLER INFO
NAME - Declan Black
ALIAS - "The Pride of Nova Scotia"
AGE - 28 (DOB: 12/01/88)
HOMETOWN - Pisonia Island, Queensland, Australia, by way of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada
HEIGHT - 6'4"
WEIGHT -240 lbs.
WRESTLING STYLE - Technical with a bit of submission and a lot of big strikes. In essence, strong style with a whole lot of suplexes thrown in for good measure.
ALIGNMENT (Face or Heel) - Tweener, leaning heel.
BIOGRAPHY - Born in Glace Bay on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada to wealthy shipping magnates, Declan Black is a 9 year veteran with two world titles to his name. Trained from 2004-2006 by decorated multi-time World Champion Robbie Priest in both classic American wrestling and more advanced British mat work, he trained through his last two years doing his undergraduate degree in Political Science at Yale. Ever since graduation, he has wrestled all over the world, with notable stops in Germany and Japan to add to his more well known exploits in the United States and Canada.
Black's refuge has long been the mat game, as he has since admitted to physical and emotional abuse from his parents as a child. He is a lifelong fan who watches tapes almost religiously, and prides himself on a hybrid style that takes cues from German catch, Japanese puroresu, and classic British World of Sport. He is quite wealthy, having inherited his parents' empire at 19 upon their untimely deaths, and since spinning it off into the wildly successful Black-Mart chain of retail stores. He owns homes in Coral Gables, FL, his native Cape Breton, and most recently his own island, Pisonia Island off the coast of Queensland in Australia.
A holder of two previous world championships, he is actively seeking his third in Seattle Pro. Declan currently dates Caitlin Flanagan and Asceline Carter.
ENTRANCE MUSIC – "Brenda Stubbert" by Ashley MacIssac
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION - A hard guitar riff hits the speakers, as the lights black out. With each of the three soft cymbals, a spotlight appears on the stage: green, yellow, then white. The second riff trains two more spotlights on the set, both white, before the pipes and fiddle start, heralding the appearance of Declan Black. Wearing a confident smirk, he steps out of the curtain, flanked by Asceline Carter on his left, and Caitlin Flanagan on his right. Slapping a few hands when convenient for him, he steps-saunters, really- to the ring, the picture of a self-assured athlete. He enters the ring, and takes his corner, sliding a Cape Breton Tartan custom mouthguard in after taking off his robe and passing it to a ring attendant. He does a few final stretches while talking to his girls as he waits for the match to begin.
FINISHING MOVES
1: Blackout (Rainmaker Lariat) ***This move is super, super hyped and I tend not to allow kickouts from it. It hasn't been kicked out of yet, and while I'd be willing to do one for a big match, talk to me before you write it. I will probably say no. You can do counters or reversals all you want, but if you want to do kickouts, use the other finisher.***
2: Call of the Coal (Claymore Kick)
SIGNATURE MOVES
1: 25:17 (Crippler Crossface) [An homage to friend and former tag team partner Frank "D.C." Wiland.]
2: Painkiller 2.0 (Severn-style inside armbar) [Tribute to trainer Robbie Priest.] youtu.be/KtsfuyW-28Q?t=1m59s
