• Entrance Description •
The arena suddenly goes completely dark; all lights go out aside from the fans cameras or phones, the beginning of “Thunderstruck” by AC/DC starts to play allowing the crowd to express their opinion on the man who is about to compete tonight. The song gets to the thirty second mark as the words “Thunder!” Are spoken bright lights flicker then go back to darkness this repeats itself until at the minute and five second mark a figure can be seen from entrance to walk out of the Gorilla position, the lights no longer flash then at the minute and thirty four second mark the lights are returned to normal as on the stage Jakob turns towards the crowd with a cocky smile wearing a white leather jacket, pink and light blue wrestling shorts that matches his boots. With a lollipop in hand he starts to make his way down to the ring to throw abuse at anyone who dared shout something unintelligent at him- at the one minute and fifty second mark Jakob has already slid into the middle of the ring, he points toward his opponents-lollipop still in hand as PA system blurts out “You’ve been Thunderstruck!” Jakob then throws the lollipop towards his opponent then with a smile get to his corner to lounge like a lazy cat.
• Biography •
Born and bred into the Professional Wrestling; Jakob from the beginning was never your normal Wrestler even before he stepped into a Professional Wrestling ring. There never was a day without Wrestling in Jakob’s life; at the age of three on his birthday Jakob stepped into a Professional Wrestling ring and the look he had still makes Chris DeLion cry to this day. Of course Jakob would at a young age become the World’s biggest Pro Wrestling Nerd- and who could blame him? The son of Chris DeLion. The (not by blood) nephew of the Knight brothers and of course the many, many Professional Wrestlers he met to exchange more than a autograph and small talk; Jakob has learnt so much knowledge that he unable to recall who exactly taught him what and how many trainers he has had over the years- Jakob didn’t have a ton of trainers of the years because he is a terrible Wrestler, in fact he just wanted to learn every there is to know and of course Chris DeLion has no quarrel with this.
At the age of four Jakob has his first “Professional Wrestling Match” which consisted of Uncle Jimmy being his knees the whole time and over selling everything then at the age of six Jakob was attempting to master the moonsault, at the age of ten his technical prowess was questionably too good then when he hit the age of twelve he has first actual Professional Wrestling match against no other than his adopted brother Taven DeLion.
Chris DeLion did not want his son to be ruined by the Professional Wrestling world so he made Jakob not continue any further in the Professional Wrestling business however he was allowed to train at the DeLion Dojo whenever he wanted. So Jakob waited and his patience paid off; one night Chris DeLion came home and told Jakob it was time. One week later Jakob debuted in DRW as a member of The Faction, then teamed up with life long friend Danny Noxx to dominate the Tag Team Wrestling scene as “World’s Most Wanted” then to later express his hatred for a certain (as he likes to call him) “Demon Fuck Face” in NBW- months later after not be able to win the NBW New Breed Champion, Jakob decided to create his own, in doing so the title became more over with the fans than the actual New Breed championship itself. Jakob hasn’t even reached pinnacle yet but he is already a former PRW World Champion and current NBW World Heavyweight Champion. Just watch him.
• Fighting Style •
Jakob DeLion isn’t your average wrestler; usually when someone wrestles they try to win or hurt the opponent, Jakob however knows from multiple lifetime experiences what really makes your opponent's body ticks plus he knows that the most vital element of being a “bad guy” is getting into your opponent's head. Let be wrenching and turning one singular finger back or attempting to rip off your ear Jakob will do not with anger or frustration but with a smile- not a crazy smile but a smile of glee. But of course Jakob being the well diverse Professional Wrestler he is doesn’t mind being hardcore or putting his body on line if it means he wins. But if he does; he’ll do it better than anyone.
