Jonny Moretz

[Jonny Moretz]

Wrestler's Name: Jonny Moretz

Gimmick: A giant of a man who has clearly more brawn than brains. If he doesn't understand something, he resorts to using his physical presence.

Height/Weight: 6’10”, 322lbs.

Born: London, England

Billed From: London, England

Alignment: Heel

Personality: Its clear to see that Jonny isn't the brightest spark when it comes to intellect, but when it comes to physicality it is a whole different playing field where he can hold his own. Jonny fights because that is all he has ever known, it is less of a job and more of a coping mechanism.

Appearance: Standing at a gigantic 6'10" you can easily pick him out in a crowd. His muscular physique surprisingly fits his height and his posture exudes confidence. Short brown hair, with a beard covering his face that is longer than the hair on his head.

Ring Attire: Short trunks, halved diagonally in black and white. On his left hip in red lettering there is the number 3 to highlight the three count he will get when he wins. White knee pads with black trim. White boots with black trim, with the height of the boots meeting the bottom of the knee pads. Both hands are wrapped in white tape, and his fingers and thumb on his right hand are wrapped in black tape. On his right elbow he wears a black elbow pad.

Entrance Attire: Same as ring attire, but wearing a black and white halved leather ring robe with a hood.

Entrance Theme: “Coming Undone” - Korn

Entrance: "Coming Undone" begins to play out of the PA system and the lights cut out in the arena. The words "Jonny Moretz" appear in jagged lettering across the big screen pulsating brighter with each beat of the music. As the lyrics begin to play through the speaker a floor light appears at the feet of Jonny, slowly lighting up his legs, torso and chest until it gets to his hooded face showing the grimace on the big mans face. With his eyes glued to the bottom of the ramp he begins to walk down, not acknowledging any of the fans on the way down. He gets to the ring apron and steps up on to the side with his hands pulling him up grasped on the top rope. He proceeds to step over the top rope before standing in the center of the ring before pulling down his hood as he waits for his opponent.

Style: Powerhouse

Match Strategy: Moretz is your typical giant powerhouse. He tries to use his strength to win matches as that is what he has become accustomed to. Whilst he may not be the quickest, if he gets hold of his opponent they will soon know about it. There is no concentration on where he hurts you, as long as he hurts you.

Strengths: Extremely powerful when he can get his hands on his opponents. Resiliency is another strength as he has been known to take a beating and still manage to kick out.

Weaknesses: His lack of speed usually means he can be out manouvered. Unfortunately for quick moving Superstars, they sometimes lack power.

Bio: Born in England Jonny always stood out from the crowd. Being the middle child with an older brother and younger sister he always felt forgotten. At school, being the tall "freak" he was frequently bullied and picked on causing him to play hookie to avoid confrontation. Eventually after being forced to attend under supervision he snapped and flew into a rage, reacting to his tormentors of whom he happily oppressed, but was quickly expelled from school. After being transferred from school to school he had to learn at home which contributes to his lack of social skills.

After finally getting through his school years Jonny went to Diesels Gym to try and channel his aggression. At an already 6'4" when he was 16 the coaches were excited to teach him. He wasn't quick and nimble enough for the likes og Jiu Jitsu or Muay Thai so they decided he would be perfect to take up wrestling where your opponent really has to tackle you head on. Jonny quickly rose through the ranks in his local syndicate and was quickly advanced to the nationals where he impressed and resulted in him being offered a spot on a roster in Dragons Gate. Whilst he wasn't of Asian ethinicity he still had quite a strong following until he turned on his fan-favourite mentors when they criticised his intuition and intelligence when he refused to tag them in during a six man tag match. He went on to beat down on them leaving them in a heap on the floor.

Jonny decided after the heat he was receving in Japan, in and out of the ring that he should leave. He ended up in America going from one Indy circuit to another until he was spotted by a talent scout from GZW2K1.
