D E S C R I P T I O N & G I M M I C K
Shade began wrestling in May of 2008. He originally debuted acting as a powerhouse vampire, however he grew tired of pretending to be a vampire, so he let his true self come out. This proved to be a much bigger threat than his powerhouse vampire charade.

Shade suffers from a bipolar spectrum disorder: Bipolar II Disorder. Usually, people with this disorder would experience depression. Rare cases, such as Shade, have moments of high irritability and violence instead. Pissing Shade off is simply the worst thing a person can do because his demeanor will go from calm and collected to dangerous and unpredictable in a matter of seconds.

Additionally, Shade has a sick obsession with fire. He invented a match called a "Gasoline & Lighters Match" which he ended up losing. In doing so, he set himself on fire and was thought to be dead. In reality, he was sent to a mental asylum. He escaped shortly after and he burned the asylum down.

Shade seems to have gone back to his usual comedic ways as of late.

W R E S T L I N G - S T Y L E
Shade focuses usually on brute strength and mind games. He does not like to cheat and he rarely does. When pissed off, he's aggressive in the ring. When he's not pissed off, he's calm for the most part, and that's when his mind games come out.

He barely does anything aerial or high-flying. He also is not the best when it comes to submission-type moves. The only exception being his "Eternal Rest" (Reverse Chinlock) signature which he has perfected over the years.
