Biography
Growing up in a quiet suburban area of Newcastle, England, Ross Walker seemed to be your average child, though blessed with great knowledge, he never seemed motivated to use it to its fullest extent. He was touted as having the luxury of being intelligent enough to be able to do whatever he wanted with his life, and become extremely successful at it, be it doctor, lawyer, accountant, teacher. But none of that ever interested Ross. He considered it somewhat humorous (and extremely accurate) to describe himself as “despite all my best efforts, extremely intelligent.” Ross knew what he wanted to do. Since the vocation was first introduced to him at the tender age of seven, his mind was made up. He wanted to become a professional wrestler.
Though his parents were dead set against it, Ross was determined to realize his dream. Despite achieving very strong G.C.S.E. examination results, he turned down the chance to study A-Levels, and instead sought out a markedly different education. An education in the wrestling business. Ross was willing to travel as far as it took to be trained in the wrestling business. Fortunately, he didn’t have to travel too far. He came across the Newcastle Wrestling Academy, an established wrestling school virtually on his doorstep. Under the tutelage of head trainer Carl Turner, Ross, with his natural ability for learning, and a pronounced aptitude for wrestling, quickly grew into the academy’s star pupil, featuring heavily in the school’s monthly exhibition shows.
Gaining a solid reputation, it wasn’t long before the major British promotions came knocking. Taking advantage of a shallow talent pool, and aided heavily by his natural charisma, Ross quickly grew into one of the British wrestling scene’s top stars, spearheading its renaissance. After four straight years at the top of the UK scene, and winning everything there was to win, Ross decided to move on, trying his luck in the American independent scene, hoping to gain more exposure. Unfortunately, his reputation on the British scene counted for little, and thus he struggled to make a name for himself, competing mostly on the undercard of shows held in front of barely 100 people.
After eighteen months of struggling, he decided something had to give. He couldn’t keep on being held down any longer. After six years of being the nice, good-looking young British guy, he decided something. No More Mr. Nice Guy. Ross developed a serious attitude problem, now synonymous with his character, something it is now almost impossible to picture him without. Over the course of the next two years, this attitude began to strike a chord with many promoters across North America, making Ross one of the most in-demand talents on the independent circuit. Soon, Japan came knocking. All the big promotions wanted him.
The next year of his career was spent there, learning the Japanese puroresu style, incorporating it with his classic British mat wrestling and an array of high-risk moves, helping Ross to mould his own signature style of wrestling. Japan was not only an excellent place to hone your craft, but for Ross, it also opened up the doors to the major US wrestling promotions, which was where Ross really wanted to be. Several came knocking, but it was the Brutality Wrestling Federation which tabled the best offer, and so began Ross’ journey to the pinnacle of the wrestling industry.
He quickly found success in the BWF, defeating the entire British Empire for the BWF European Championship in an impressive display. Though he lost the title a week later in a six-man Hell’s Kitchen contest, it mattered little, as Ross was already on to greater things. He made the acquaintance of one of the wrestling industry’s biggest stars, Dan “Dragon” Taylor, and in doing so, formed arguably the greatest team in BWF history, the British Uprising. They ascended to the pinnacle of the tag division almost instantaneously, immovable until Ross departed the BWF nine months later.
All of that meant little compared to the opportunity that would eventually make Ross a bona fide wrestling superstar. Using his connections, Dan managed to get Ross a tryout match with the FWF, Fantasy Wrestling Federation. Ross impressed in a strong showing against Tyson Fehr, and was quickly offered a contract. Over the next couple of months, Ross impressed greatly, earning an immaculate win/loss record, up until Vertigo, where in an Elimination Chamber match, he finally fell to a mighty Bethea Bomb from FWF Hall of Famer, Ernest “Beast” Bethea.
Ashamed by this loss, Ross went into hiding for around a month, before resurfacing as part of his old friend Dan Taylor’s stable, The Enemy. For the next four months, Dan, Ross, and Dan’s “love interest”, Christine Marsh, dominated FWF, and the Monday Night Rampage brand, Dan once again lifting the FWF Heavyweight Championship, and Ross and Christine earning themselves two Tag Team championships. All seemed perfect. The Enemy were on top of the wrestling world. It all seemed perfect. Perhaps, just a little too perfect. Something had to give. And at FWF Nightmare, it finally did.
After winning the Television title in a Parking Lot Brawl earlier in the night, Ross came down to ringside during Dan’s FWF Heavyweight title defence against his old rival, The Predator. Naturally, the ringside audience assumed Ross was there to “watch the back” of his partner. They assumed wrong. When the referee was knocked down late on in the match, Ross saw his opportunity. Sliding into the ring, he nailed his partner with his newly-won Television championship belt, sparking off perhaps the greatest rivalry in FWF history. For four months, the two faced each other in tag team situations, and attempting to end each other’s career at every convenient point. Finally, Commissioner Joe Stall decided enough was enough, and placed the two in a one on one contest at FWF Black Out, with the Television title on the line. Dan came out the victor, but only after Ross intentionally disqualified himself, thus keeping his title.
The two met once more at Blizzard, in a fierce contest. The title was once again on the line. This time, despite all Ross’ trickery, despite all his best moves and more, Dan came out on top, lifting the Television title, and in doing so, becoming an FWF Grandslammer. The effort almost killed him, and in doing so, Dan almost killed Ross. The injuries had taken their toll on Ross, and so, he decided the time was ripe for a break, to allow his injuries to heal. However, despite what Dan may have thought, there was still unfinished business between the two. Returning on the January 29th edition of Monday Night Rampage, Ross attacked Dan in the middle of his Television title defence, and costing him the title in the process. Despite all their differences, Ross and Dan agreed on one thing: FWF simply wasn’t big enough for both of them. This leads into the present day, building up to the absolute culmination of their six-month feud, at the biggest show of the year, FWF Genesis IV. Loser Leaves FWF. Who will come out victorious? Only time will tell…

As he reaches the ring, he climbs the ring apron and stands at the turnbuckle, on the middle ropes. He crosses his arms in an X shape and throws his jacket down to the floor.

Current Entrance
Entrance Music: Metallica – Better Than You
Entrance Description: The arena is suddenly plunged into darkness as the opening notes of Metallica’s “Better Than You” begin playing softly. With each note increasing in volume, a bright white light circles the arena as the opening guitar riff kicks in. As James Hetfield’s voice finally sounds the opening words of the song, the entrance ramp begins filling with smoke. During the momentary lull at the end of the first verse, the smoke stops suddenly. As the song reaches the words “Better Than You” for the first time, fireworks explode from each side of the curtain separating the backstage area from ringside, and “The” Ross Walker finally steps out, to a tumultuous chorus of boos. As he walks down the entrance ramp, the boos intensify and fireworks explode in sync with his walking pace. He steps up onto the ring apron and turns back towards the stage, crossing his arms in an “X” shape as more fireworks explode from each corner of the ring. He spins back towards the ring and jumps up onto the ropes, placing his feet on the middle ropes and making the “X” shape with his arms once more. He takes off his jacket and throws it down to the floor. He then jumps over the ropes and into the ring.
