Proving Ground Determination League UPDATE

The Proving Ground Determination League field of 12 has been finalized, and here are some mini-bios on the competitors, as well as how the tournament will take place:

COMPETITORS:

The Incredible ! (Pronounced as "YEAH")
From: Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico
Style: Luchador
Finisher: "Magic Missile" (Imploding Phoenix Splash)
Bio: The most experienced of the field, formerly known as Wizard and then The Incredible Wizard before taking his Prince-esque "!" name. Despite this eccentricity, he's an amazing high flier with a huge bag of tricks to back it up.

Hurricane Andrews
From: Buffalo, NY
Style: Power And Paint Brawler
Finisher: "Hurricane Mixer" (High Impact Shoulder Tackle, sometimes leaping)
Bio: Gaining entry into this tournament from tearing up the Tri-State indy scene, Hurricane Andrews is probably the most explosive competitor in the tournament and a strong favorite.

Clockwork Angel
From: Clockwork City
Style: Joshi
Finisher: "Angel Splash" (Swandive Senton)
Bio: Supposedly "created" by her manager Dr. Uhrmacher, The Clockwork Angel is an emotionless, almost robotic athlete who posseses an array of high flying moves that can put away any opponent.

Mario Black
From: Royal Palm, FL
Style: American Heavyweight With 80s Influences
Finisher: Piledriver
Bio: Mario Black takes no prisoners as he hammers his opposition with brutal offense. In addition to his neck-breaking piledriver he possesses a deadly Iron Claw.

Burrito The Cat
From: Baton Rouge, LA
Style: Meow-cha Libre
Finisher: "Burrito Supreme Special" (Dancing Yahoo)
Bio: Best known as the mascot of his hometown promotion Bon Temps Pro Wrestling, Burrito is a crafty competitor who can tie you in knots, suplex you, or blast you from above with high flying moves.

GAMEOVER
From: Level 256
Style Unothodox Junior
Finisher: "Kill Screen" (Brainbuster)
Bio: While his unique mask and M Bison themed outfit might make you think he's just another gimmick wrestler, GAMEOVER is no joke, and has knocked out several opponents with his Kill Screen.

Megaton
From: Diamond City
Style: Super Heavyweight Brawler
Finisher: Dropkick
Bio: A charismatic big man, what Megaton lacks in finesse he makes up for in using his bulk to his advantage. A possible sleeper favorite?

Freddy Newman
From: Green Bay, WI
Style: Brawler
Finisher: "Freddy To Belly" (Greco-Roman Belly To Belly Suplex)
Bio: Dubbed "Psycho Furry" by his friends, the pudgy, nerdy Newman is a deceptively tough athlete. Even if he does wear cat ears in the ring.

Gregory A Rious
From: St Paul, MN
Style: Catch Wrestling
Finisher: Gotch Toe Hold
Bio: An old school submission wrestler, Rious may be the best technician of the field of twelve, able to make people tap from a variety of positions. Also fond of flying body presses.

Brooklyn Tokyo
From: Pyongyang, DPRK
Style: Suplex-heavy American Heavyweight
Finisher: Superplex
Bio: While his alleged hometown of Pyongyang is debatable, what isn't is that he's a master of superplexes, and if he throws one on you the match is over.

Mercy Toombs
From: Langley, VA
Style: Kickboxing-heavy brawler
Finisher: "Mercy Kill '16" (Shining Axe Kick)
Bio: "The Woman In Black" is known for three things: A vicious repetoire of kicks and knees, wearing a suit in the ring, and her brother Jacob (currently rehabbing a shoulder injury).

Willy G. "Gee" Wilikers
From: Americaville, USA
Style: "Classic Family Fun" (whatever that means)
Finisher: Victory Roll
Bio: Possibly the oddest of the group (and given that a CAT is wrestling in this that's saying something), "Gee" Wilikers appears to think he's the star of a 50's sitcom. Yes, really. Despite the wierdness, he's a good all-round junior heavyweight.
