[PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION]
Gimmick: For most of his life he was a ruthless gangster that had no regard for anyone but himself and his crew. Even when he debuted in IWT the crowds hated him and so did the locker room, he constantly had a target on his back. Recently though, he has turned a new leaf and while he still has that ruthless "don't give a fuck" attitude, most of what he does is for the benefit of the people he cares about. He has no filter.

[ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION]
Entrance Theme:
Entrance actions:
*The crowd gives off a mixed reaction as the music of Demarcus Bishop blasts over the speakers. At 18 seconds of the song when the chorus kicks in, Bishop walks out onto the stage slowly with his arm in the air as he stands on top of the ramp. He pats his chest and points to the fans and he slowly walks down the ramp bobbing his head to the music. He gets to the ring and rolls under the bottom rope and walks over to one of the turnbuckles, hops up, and begins hyping up the crowd to as they mostly cheer for him. He smirks as he hops down and bounces off the ropes as he waits for his opponent/waits for the bell.*
Tag Team Entrance:
None yet.
Champion Entrance:
Same as the entrance above but he raises the title high above his head when he walks out and taunts on all four turnbuckles with the title when he gets to the ring.

[PROFILE DESCRIPTION]
Character Biography*:
Demarcus Bishop grew up in Detroit his whole life in an orphanage outside the city. While in the orphanage, he met a kid named Jabari, who was a few years older than Bishop, who eventually became like a big brother to Demarcus. While in the orphanage, Jabari tried teaching Bishop everything he knew, whether that was hustling, dealing, people skills, dancing, fighting, he helped Bishop become the man he is today. When Jabari turned 18 and Bishop was 15, still with no parents, Jabari left the orphanage on his own and "adopted" Bishop, but if anyone asks, Jabari is just Bishop's big brother, not his Dad. After they both entered the real world, all they had was each other. No house, no food, nothing. So Jabari and Bishop decided to do what they knew they could excel at. They started selling drugs. To get start-up money, they may have robbed a couple people, they may have done some crimes, but eventually they got on their feet and started a nice "business". They got an apartment and they built a crew of trustworthy people and within a couple years, they were and felt like the kings of Detroit. They may have been arrested a couple times, but they always found a way out of it. They had their struggles, but they always stuck together. By the time Jabari was 25 and Bishop was 22 though, Jabari got real sick of doing what they were doing. He felt like they were destined to do more. He felt and convinced Demarcus that they could not only be the kings of Detroit, but the kings of the country. So back to square one. While still working the streets, Jabari fine tuned Bishop's skills. Tried to test his abilities. He tried to get Bishop to pursue rapping, dancing, and many other things but nothing seemed to click so Jabari went back to the basics and decided he'd dedicate his time to teaching Bishop how to fight and now how to wrestle. Bishop loved it, he was good at it, and Jabari felt the same way. Jabari still runs the streets of Detroit with his crew, but his main focus is being Bishop's financial and personal manager, and Jabari got Bishop booked at a few indy wrestling shows in Detroit. IWT was in the middle of a talent search at the time and happened to stumble into one of those shows and decided they'd take a shot and offer Bishop and Jabari a contract. Bishop's debut in 2016 on the mainstream stage was controversial, it was reckless, and it advanced Bishop's career nowhere and he ended up back on the streets towards the end of 2016. While in IWT, Jabari was nowhere to be found because Bishop wanted to do things on his own. He was mad at the world and took it out on one of IWT's top superstars. Bishop got locked in a blood feud with Jack Forté right off the bat. He's not even sure why but he hated Jack, but he did, and Jack hated him as well. They fought on and off for months until Jack put his Intercontinental Title on the line at IWT Summerslam. Bishop felt that he needed to put something on the line as well, so he put his career on the line, and ended up being defeated by his rival. Back to the streets he went, and he decided he'd do things on his own there too until Jabari found him walking late at night one cold night and demanded that Demarcus hears him out and goes to work with him again. Bishop, now 23, obliged to Jabari's request and they got right back to work to get Bishop back in the ring. Instead of just training Demarcus how to fight now, Jabari trained Bishop's mind. He changed him into a whole new man, a smarter man, a more spiritual man, and Bishop ended up changing Jabari a bit because of it. They helped each other once again. In December 2016, Jabari somehow managed to get Bishop a second chance with IWT as IWT seemed to be in a rough place and needed some talent, but the company closed down in that same month, but it wasn't back to the streets for them this time. They both worked many many indy shows to hopefully get noticed by some mainstream company and eventually in January of 2017, they were approached by CQC and immediately signed a contract for Demarcus with Jabari as his part time manager. Now, Jabari travels everywhere with Bishop. He's there at every show, every fight, he's determined to keep Bishop on the right path. Can Bishop stay level headed this time around? Can he finally win a championship and prove he belongs in the wrestling business? We'll see....
