Wrestler name: Lawrence Blackburn
Nicknames: None codified, plenty given by amorous fans, "Angel" seeming to be chief among them
Fed representing: Free Agent
Link to fed: N/A
Weight: 240 pounds
Height: 6' 3"
Hometown: Charlotte, North Carolina
Entrance Music: "Dying for an Angel" -- Avantasia
Face/Heel: Face
Wrestling Style: Powerhouse/Technician mix...he's not the biggest but he's strong for his size (which is already considerable). He can move well and can target the back fairly reliably, but he's not the best at anything. Full on hosses can outstrong him, full on technicians can outwrestle him, and quick wrestlers can outmaneuver him, but he's never truly out of a fight until the bell rings.
Pic Base: Chris Hemsworth

1. Vertical Suplex (Sometimes Stalling)
2. Overhead Belly-to-Belly Suplex (Uses Side Belly-to-Belly if opponent is too large to lift)

Signature 1: Pride of Carolina

Finisher 2: Feel the (Black)Burn
Description: Gorilla Clutch
Bio: I might copy-paste in my bio from the SCW app, but basically the essence of it is this. (I'll fix the list later)
- Born of hippies
- Dabbled in many things before finding his calling in...
- Fitness
- But Not Quite Your Typical Fitness
- Lawrence's passion is overall fitness, not just physical fitness
- He owns two locations in his chain of "Well-Being Facilities"
- One in Charlotte
- One in Las Vegas
- He focuses equally on mental health as he does on physical health
- His facilities offer services other gyms are unlikely to offer
- Meditation Rooms
- A Study
- Just to name a few
- He dabbled in wrestling while trying to help anoter wrestler with his problems
- It didn't work out
- Now he's dabbling once more to participate in this historic event
Any extra info you want to add about your character As fits his character rep, Lawrence is very charming and attractive to (most of) the opposite sex, and many of the same sex. While he acknowledges this characteristic and often plays it up in public as a sort of visual offering to those who derive joy (or other enjoyment) from his appearance, his flirtatious ways end when someone tries seriously hitting on him, as he is in a relationship and is quite happy with her.
