★ WRESTLER DETAILS ★
★ WRESTLING STYLE ★
Patient, efficient, and above all else, violent. James is the rare striker in professional wrestling that prefers to wait and exploit an opening in an opponent’s defense rather than empty the tank for an early victory. He wants the shots from his fists and feet to matter, so they aren’t flashy, or in his mind, wasteful. Recently, James has dipped his toes back into the submission game to offset his status as a smaller heavyweight. If an opponent has a weak limb he will latch onto it like a hungry dog on a steak with the intention of ending the fight then and there.
★ BRIEF CAREER BIOGRAPHY ★
The inaugural World Heavyweight and United States Champion. A former World Tag Team Champion. A first-ballot Hall of Famer. The last time the MAINSTREAM audience saw him he was a member of the hated Franchise. He parted from them and the company on less than amicable. A win over company founder Robb Daniels in OATH Wrestling reminded him he has unfinished business. What exactly means is known only to him at the present time.
