IT'S BEEN SO LONG, LONG HARD DAYS
THEY DON'T SAY GOD'S CHANGE MY WAYS
CHANGE MY WAYS, THOSE EVIL WAYS!
The eerie opening of “Evil Ways (Justice Mix)” by Blues Saraceno is heard through out the arena. As the red and black strobe lights circle around the arena before beginning to flash as the chorus rings through out the arena as Alex Madsen steps out onto the stage.
RING ANNOUNCER: “Making his way to the ring, from Long Island, New York; he is the Apex Predator… ALEX MAAAAAADSEN!!”
I FOUND OUT
THE HATE GROW COLD, THE GOD RISE UP
DAMN MY SOUL CAUSE I AIN'T CHANGE
CHANGE MY WAYS, I AIN'T CHANGE!
Madsen is seen dressed in his black short wrestling trunks with a wolf howling on the back with the eyes being a blood red. The word "ANTI-HERO" runs along the top of the wolf. The word "MADSEN" runs along the front of his trunks in a tribal like font that is white with a red outline. Madsen also has his wrists taped up with black tape and a pair of black knee pads along with black and red laced up wrestling boots. Madsen also has on one of his trademark black Affliction styled “Apex Predator” t-shirts. Madsen looks from the left to the right before throwing his arms in up towards the sky before, beginning to make his way down the ramp. Madsen walks past the fans there in the front row as a few of them reach over touching the Anti-Hero of the XWA. Madsen stops at the bottom of the ramp as he has that cold and determined look in his eyes, just keeping that cold stare and his eyes locked on the ring before making his way over to the steel steps, jogging up them as he makes his way up onto the apron before entering the ring as he heads over to the turnbuckle as he looks out at the fans and smirks a bit before raising his arms into the air and posing for the crowd, before hopping down. Madsen walks over to one of the other corners before stretching his arms a bit, and cracking his neck as he is seen awaiting the arrival of his opponent.

Madsen grew up in a lower-to-middle-class family in the country side of New York. His mother was a nurse and his father a mechanic, who taught him everything he knew. Alex grew up watching wrestling and would watch the greats such as Hulk Hogan, Macho Man Randy Savage and many more. Madsen was also a big Mick Foley fan with him growing up in the Long Island area. In 2004 Alex attended WrestleMania XX. In high school Madsen was somewhat of a jock, participating in wrestling, football, and basketball. At the age of 18 Alex was drafted into the marines. He served two tours in Iraq and two in Afghanistan - but during his second tour he was shot in the shoulder while on a recon mission. The injury was deemed severe enough to have him sent home. At this time Alex was twenty-five, and after coming home he suffered from depression and alcoholism. It was not until he began training to wrestle that he came out of the depression, focusing on his fitness. He was naturally talented (having a background in technical wrestling) and picked it up quickly.
Madsen was initially trained by WWE Hall of Famer, Shawn Michaels at his Wrestling School in San Antonio, Texas. Alex would soon move to Florida and start training with Mark LoMonaco and Devon Hughes known collectively as Team 3D at their Wrestling School in Kissimmee, Florida. Following his graduation from Team 3D Wrestling Academy, Madsen was given a try out match with Ring of Honor. At first Madsen impressed ROH management and was given various other try out matches with some of their more known talent such as Colt Cabana and Austin Aries. However a few months later ROH management came to a decision not to offer Madsen a contract.
On April 21, 2008 Madsen married his girlfriend of three years, Crystal Harper, a platinum recording artist and singer. The couple married in a small ceremony in New York City with a few friends in attendance. In September 2010 it was revealed that Crystal was pregnant with the couple's first child. On May 3, 2011 Crystal gave birth to a baby boy, Ryan Christopher Madsen who weighted in at 7 1/2 pounds. In May 2012, Harper announced that she and her husband were expecting their second child due in early-mid February 2013. Madsen and his wife welcomed a daughter, Kassandra Louise Madsen on January 31, 2013.

Upon failing to get a contract with Ring of Honor, Alex stumbled upon Xtreme Wrestling Association (XWA) and had himself a tryout match with them and right away impressed management and was signed to a contract. Madsen made his debut with the company under his real name as a heel and would win his first match on Vendetta #24 with a win over Crow, Ridiculous & Jacky. Madsen was able to get his second victory at Vendetta #25 with a win over Alberti Evans.
Madsen suffered his first loss in the XWA with a loss to CF Riley at In Your House #2. Following this it was announced that Madsen would be the one of three men to challenge Sky Drifter for his Rising Star Division Championship at Revolutionary Wars III. At the event Madsen was unsuccessful in his attempt to win the title. Following Revolutionary Wars there was a draft which had Madsen find himself drafted to Mayhem.
Madsen would make his Mayhem debut at Mayhem #13 against Sylar Scythe. The match would be ruled a no-contest as both men ended up being counted out. Shortly after this XWA made a few roster cuts and released a total of seven superstars with Madsen being one of them. It was also said that management weren't too big on Madsen's attitude backstage either, as he was a little arrogant along with him not being too pleased with Hardcore Harry being put over him at Revolutionary Wars to win the RSD Championship.
After being away from the wrestling scene for a year and a half, Madsen resigned with XWA in February 2012. Madsen made his return at Vendetta #37 accepting the open challenge from Matt Lightning and went on to defeat him thus turning face for the first time in his career.
At In Your House #7 Madsen competed in a triple threat match for the vacant XWA Intercontinental Championship against both Matt Lightning and Akira. Midway through the match Matt Lightning was apparently fired from his contract resulting in security coming down to the ring and escort him out of the building leaving it become a one on one match between Akira and Madsen, in the end it was the Apex Predator who was able to land a mid-air Killshot and pin Akira to capture his first XWA Championship title. At Revolutionary Wars IV Madsen faced former World Champion JHalc and took him to his limits as both men ended up being counted out, but not before Madsen delivered a Killshot to JHalc.
The following week at Vendetta #38 Madsen suffered a loss to XWA World Heavyweight Champion, Ace Andrews. During that Madsen proved that he has what it takes to be a main event caliber superstar, having taken Andrews to his limit. At Vendetta #39, Madsen suffered another loss this time to Xtreme Icon. After a bit of a hiatus from television, Madsen returned at CyberSlam and would suffer a loss to Razor Xtreme in a Steel Cage Match, in the process losing the Intercontinental Championship ending his reign at 102 days.
Shortly before CyberSlam, the annual draft took place and Madsen was drafted to Mayhem, thus bringing the XWA Intercontinental Championship along with him, until losing to Razor Xtreme at CyberSlam. After a seven month absence, Madsen made his return still as a face at Vendetta #47 in a confrontation with Ace Andrews revealing himself as Andrews' mystery opponent in the process. Madsen would go on to lose the match and has since taken another hiatus after the birth of his second child.
Madsen would then make his return to XWA in mid-August 2013, being assigned to their Revenge brand. He made his television return at Revenge #6 attacking Tyler Chandler hitting him with the Killshot before punting him in the head and forcing him to leave on a stretcher. Madsen is expected to explain his actions at the upcoming PPV Retaliation.
