Head[/u] - Almost always, no matter what the situation, Garland will be wearing his trademark gray beanie. The design of the beanie from the top is that of a Gothic style put together through black lace here and there. The beanie is worn over his shoulder length silver hair. Garland has sideburns that pass just below his ears, his eyes being hazel and his lip being pierced on the left and right side. His eyes are shadowed a bit heavy as well.
Torso - Garland wears a necklace around his neck that's stainless steel, the design being a small silver badger. He is never seen without this necklace around his neck, it's symbolism meaning something to him.
Over his torso, Garland wears usually a gray sleeveless shirt. The shirt has his name on the back designed all fancy and the like. His shirt color may often be gray but he also sometimes wears the same style in orange, yellow, and blue.
Arms[/u] - Garland likes to keep his right hand taped up while he wears a black fingerless glove over his left. The black glove over his left hand is cut at his wrist and is studded over the knuckles, his right hand taped up towards his lower forearm.
Lower Body[/u] - Placed over his lower half are slightly baggy tattered jeans. The pants are held to Garland through a normal looking belt, the legs of the pants left roomy to allow Garland to move more fluid. Garland's shoes are a darkened black with a small red flame design running along the bottom of each one on the outside.

Entrance Theme:[/u]"Peace Sells" by Megadeth[/i][/size]
Entrance Description:[/i]
"Peace Sells" begins to play over the P.A. system for about 10 seconds as the camera screens the titontron before Robert Garland makes his way onto the stage, raising his arms in the air and slightly pumping his fists to the music, the crowd in an uproar for his appearance. He heads down to the ring from there with a look of confidence on his face.
Once he reaches the apron, he pulls himself up and poses a bit to the fans before stepping in between the ropes and getting a serious look on his face where he either stares down his in-ring opponent or waits for them to come out from the backstage area.[/i]

Signature Moves[/u] -
#1 - Bite of the Badger (***) - (Running Senton Front Dropkick to sitting cornered opponent) ~ Garland runs from the opposite corner as his opponent is cornered in. He usually taunts out to the crowd before charging in. He can do it w/o running if he needs to hit it fast but without the running it lacks a lot of the impact.

Finishers[/u] [/color]-
#1 - Cradle DDT - (****) ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDT_%28professional_wrestling%29#Fisherman_DDT)
#2 - Rear Naked Choke (****) - ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rear_Naked_Choke)
Ring Logic -
Work the opponent down from the bare minimum and make them have a weakness. Attack what's showing signs of said weakness and keep it up until they start to feel it working. Avoid the top rope unless I have a clear shot at hitting one of the only two moves I would be up there for.
I would rather finish my opponent with a pinfall or submission so I could truly hold the victory. Even though I wouldn't normally pull off a dirty finish, I may be known too if my back is against the wall...
I am not afraid of my own blood either. In my history I have been in many bloody matches that would be too brutal to watch if they were real.

Biography:[/u][/size]
I grew up in Harvey, Louisiana where I was raised with a neglectful family and no one to hang out with. This lead to an upbringing of solitude and loneliness leading further into demensia and distortion between reality and fiction.
I was thrown in prison at the age of 18 after living my teenage years mostly on the street, murder of a veterinarian who couldn't save the life of my own true friend, my dog Biscuit, and burning down my own house after a psychotic outburst the same day.
I was bailed out by a wise old man after 3 months. He trained me and helped me overcome my own psychiatric issues before forcing me to choose a hobby... I chose wrestling.
Since then I have lived and fought to get on the wrestling scene and finally made it when I turned 22. I eventually made it to the GWF where I captured a few championships and ran an early Sunday morning show for the undercards late in my career and while working for other feds around the world such as EWA and ECF.
After GWF's closure I lived once again on the street with my old friends Red, my pet badger from my time in EWA, and Bobo the Hobo, my mentor and manager from GWF and EWA. It's been a while since then but as of this moment I have focused on trying to change my life again now at the age of 28. My manager has since died and the only friend I have coming into the PWA is Red at 7 years of age. Now begins a new chapter...
UPDATE: 3/2/10 ~ Bobo has now returned and PWA is running like an insanity ward. It's time I decided to take action and take a stand. With Bobo, Shane Xzavery and JJB knowingly at my back I figure it's time to show the audience what we're all really made off... Maybe Chris will need some back up to, who knows!
