For BB, Myself and Lil Kim lol
For Brody, again myself , great way to write and release my negative energy, also inspired by riot girls and recently spiritual things.

A good portion of myself, and Ed Gein. Bray Wyatt as well I assume.

well for starters Alex Richardson is very inspired by Bret Hart, with a few tweeks that I added so that he's not just a clone.

For Caine he's partially inspired by people who stand on the street corner saying the end is near, or jesus is coming back soon.  also there's a bit of the early version of mankind in him

For Mark Michaels theres a ton ofstuff that makes him up.  His ring gear and last name are attributed to Shawn Michaels, the fact that he was born and raised in minasota come from the list of great workers who came from there including ric flair rick rude and curt hennig,  his out of ring outfits and general attitude is based on a buddy of mine who has some good qualities about him but can sometimes push your buttons and act like an asshole.

Jamie Lannister upto season 3 from Game of Thrones. He is like a showoff guy who is talented no doubt but always uses his father's influence to get out of rough situations.

For THIS gimmick?

A little bit of Great Muta, a half a pint of AJ Lee, some Raven. Even a little Rachel Maddow sometimes for snark levels.

Daniel Plainview from There Will Be Blood

Well I guess I'll give one for each gimmick or so...

Queen of Puro/Submission was HEAVILY inspired by MMA Shinsuke (You know when he wore normal wrestling trunks and the Landslide was his finisher). Someone that's just used her abilities in the ring to prove what her worth is. I took all of Japanese Wrestling smark knowledge and stuff it into this run of mine with references to Rikidozan, and etc. I think this gimmick hit it's peak when I got a Pure Title match against Rami, probably my favorite match that I've been a part of.

Arrogance Personified was the brainchild of DDD and I. Around that time, I knew I was turning but I didn't set up anything for myself, so DDD was instantly there to help out and give this gimmick Idea. Originally I wanted Azumi to give ZERO FUCKS for everything in life like the person that she's based around in Naito, even the catchphrase I use "Assen Nayo" is Naito's old one before "Tranquilo" got super over. I think the person that wrote the Turbo Block even went as far as give me some of Naito's in-ring antics for the matches. It also had a hint of "Real Rock N Rolla" Prince Devitt especially since like him, I turned on a long time partner after loads of frustration.

Psycho Azumi was a weird thing... I sort of liked it but at the same time, I didn't. It was super cool that how the person that wrote my feud with Erica made me legit go mental to the point of attempted murder but it just didn't suit me because struggling to get anything out in terms of actual material. It was obviously very based off of AJ Lee when she had her whole crazy Ex-girlfriend run going and even some Crazy-Awesome-godly-lesbian Mickie James as Haruna and I had pitched an idea for after her HOG loss to HBG but then Shock Value happened.

Currently, Azumi has a lot of Okada, Heel YAMATO and even Heel Shingo Takagi in her. She's confident about that skills in the ring are better then yours, she carries herself like fucking queen and she's absolutely violent in-ring if needed to be.

Brody is just the anger and darkness I have built in me from my issues

My original inspiration was tommy dreamer.  A blue collar guy who the fans could get behind.  The mist part comes from the great muta and tajiri, because I always liked when they would spit mist.

I don't even know anymore

I feel like I take some inspiration from Samurai Jack and a lot of characters from Dragon Ball like Goku or Tien. In wrestling I take inspiration from Sami Zayn, Jigsaw (obviously), and to an extent Daniel Bryan. Most of all I just try to write Target as a flawed but capable protagonist, just trying to develop that right now.
