BASIC INFORMATION:

Birth Name: Leon Benjamin Wilder

Nickname(s): "The Devil of Ultraviolence"
Age: 24
Picture Base: Finn Balor

Gimmick: When growing up in the rough side of town, you are nourished by the culture of ruthless acquisition to be one thing: an adamant survivor. Among those scarred by more everyday necessities than the average American, you have Leon Wilder who scratches and claws, and will take food off anyone's plate just to stay ahead of the rest.
A coldly-calculated and determined individual, his psychology is completely immersed in the belief that the 'end justifies the means' and will often spew that compassion doesn't pay the bills. This is what enables him to step out of line often, do things that others may view as dastardly or sadistic because his ways and means all centered in making a better living for himself. Professional wrestling to him is just a job that plays to his strengths as a fighter with a killer instinct. There is no diehard passion to be the best, a dream to be the champion or a craving in the pit of his stomach for blood/and or glory. So you won't see him playing to the crowds or bearing the carriage of a stir-crazy man with a chip on his shoulder that hates anyone and everyone.
At his core, Leon is a self-serving 'bounty hunter' that normally shows ambiguous loyalty and a steady indifference about mostly everything/everyone, bar the payoff and whoever is in the way of it. There are special occasions where none of that applies, though... But that remains a myth.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION:
Theme Music: "Blood, Milk and Sky" by White Zombie
Theme Music: "Blood, Milk and Sky" by White Zombie
Detailed Entrance Description:
A Punjabi tremor rings around the arena, steadily building towards an explosive crescendo that gives way to "Blood, Milk and Sky" by White Zombie. The instant mixed reactions from the live viewers and their vulgar signs hoisted in the air acknowledge the man behind the thundering echoes—'Dead End Wilder', 'Come Claim Me', and 'You're sh!t out of Luck.' It was clear who they invited in, albeit everything around had dimmed to a thick black except for fluorescent strobes of light spiraling around clockwork, searching the inside of the arena. Heads continuing to turn in the dark at every available direction in the search for roguish twenty-five year-old, it's then up in a particular staircase that the shadowed contour of Leon Wilder slowly trudges down the cold steps at his own leisure.
"The siren sings a lonely song
Of all the wants and hungers
The lust of love, a brute desire
The ledge of life goes under"
As the lyrics pursue, his surly pout emerging through the touch of light. He swings his arms loosely to their sides with a hint of cockiness in his movement. This is Wilder, soaked up with an aggressive form of confidence in the midst of a crowd reaching for him on his way down. Both of his shriveled up, glacial blue eyes remaining fixated with the ring, and never turning away to give care to those calling out to him. He quickly slides over the barricade upon contact, scoffing at everyone and everything with a saucy grunt before rolling his leather jacket-clad heap inside the ring.
Pacing around the mat in evident restlessness, Leon rolls his wrists and jerks his head sideways in last second preparation. A jittery smile ripping over his shady mug provided a closing gesture of how anxious he is to start swinging.

Wrestling Experience: 3 Years
Wrestling Style: Leon is journalistically described as a technical wrestling mastermind. His wrestling style is predominate on combining takedowns, counters, applications and transitions to make for beautiful submission sequences. Leon isn't the kind of wrestler to be easily accused of slowing down a match by taking the critically despised rest hold, as he gives his submission holds layer momentum by giving them little intricacies like extra pressure on individual segments of a limb and an emphasis on arches and sporadic cranks, an art in which most wrestlers don't pay attention to. His style often draws comparisons to various martial art disciplines more than they do towards pro-wrestling, however, his style has been accepted by audiences to separate him from the run of the mill pro-wrestler. He is heavily strategic, almost treating every match like a game of chess, planning out scenarios and encounters to help his offensive and defensive match mindset. He describes himself more of an artist than anything else, saying he plans his motions similar to how an artist would use his paintbrush on a canvas.
With his legs being his longest limbs, Wilder has implemented a heavy kicked base striking offence, as well as a psychological advantage of keeping his opponents at a distance. With a kickboxing background, his striking game is not one to be taken lightly as he doesn't tend to pull kicks often, only doing so if at risk of hurting a friend. He is more than capable of forcing an opponent to tap out or leave him knocked out.
His greatest weapon is his mental capacity to lure opponents into a vulnerable situation, forcing them to keep a distance or lure them into a strike or submission hold. With his fun-loving and good nature, he is very trustworthy but knows how to push your buttons to throw a strike at him in anger, more often than not sloppier than intended, only to spring his trap. He is calm under pressure, has the knowledge to slip out of a large variety of wrestling holds and, if heavily aggravated, becomes quite the dangerous competitor.

Tendency to End Fights:
- Outsmart: Overcomes the opposition through intelligence, ingenuity and superior ring psychology.
- Outlast: Uses his superb conditioning to wait for the opponent to tire, before ending the fight on his terms, preferably by submission locks.

Strengths:
- Technical Master Mind: Some have compared the artistry Leon brings as a throwback to the old World of Sport style of wrestling, drawing comparisons to Johnny Saint, Johnny Kid, Jim Breaks, among others. His skill comes from his training under Arceneaux, as well as watching his older sister who uses the style. He sometimes plays smug or cocky in an attempt to draw opposing wrestlers in for an attack.
- Pent-up Aggression: It's only been seen on the rare occasion, however Wilder has proven to have a mean-streak from time to time often as a result of disrespect or excessive annoyance. In this state of aggression, his concern for the opponents well-being is switched off, locking in holds in more sickly positions and kicks with excessive force.

Weaknesses:
- Bleeding: Leon has a noted tendency to bleed quicker than most. As such he is very used to the sight of his own blood; it often seems to make him redouble his efforts.
- Arrogance: Wilder's bit of ego can get in his way sometimes, causing him to lose focus on the win in favor of looking good or humiliating an opponent.
