WHO ARE YOU?: "Gruesome" Gary King is a near 20 year vet. He's been all over the place; Mexico, Japan, you name it, he's been there. However, he's never actually gotten the chance to make a living at wrestling. Whenever it would look like he was finally about to catch his break, something always came up, one time he tore his ACL, this other time he got caught "holding someone else's pot." Things just never seem to go his way. However, he is an extremely talented wrestler, he may not have the best body, and may not do any flips, but when it comes to the basics, Gary could be the best. He's extremely tough and rugged, being from a small town within Chattanooga, TN will do that to ya'. Gary was quoted in an interview one time saying he got into wrestling because he "Liked the feeling of his bare knuckles cracking against another mans head", he's certainly not one to be messed with. When it comes to the fans, he thinks they're the reason he hasn't been able to get anywhere. They're always demanding flips, or to have the technical skills of an Olympian. Now that he's here in EAW, Gary won't let anything stop him from finally making wrestling his job!
FACE/TWEEN/HEEL: Heel
STRENGTHS: - Gary's been in the ring for nearly 20 years, so to say he has veteran knowledge is an understatement.
- His knowledge of the basics is nearly unmatched. So every punch he throws, every kick he unleashes, and every headlock he grabs always has that extra something behins it.
WEAPON OF CHOICE: His Brass Knuckles he affectionately calls "Jess."
