RING ENTRANCE
Entrance Description (250 words max):
The lights go out. The sounds of music and a snorting bull fill the arena as smoke rises from the stage. The lights return to the arena and Buster Gloves rises from the floor of the stage as the words "BUSTER GLOVES" play on the tron. "Burn", as played by Stabbing Westward, plays as blue and white lasers bounce around the arena
A black and blue training mask attached to his face, Buster scans the audience. You can’t see many of his facial features, but it’s undoubtedly him, the Bull of the North. He checks his chin, by giving it two short punches with a black padded glove on his left hand. The letters W.I.F.E. (Wrestling is Forever) printed on the backside of it.
Buster descends the ramp high fiving kids, pointing to the cheap seats up top, and bouncing his head to the music. He crawls up the ring steps like a silverback gorilla, wipes his shoes on the apron and ducks in under the top rope into the ring. Then side hops a circle around the ring before coming back to center. He removes his mask and checks his chin one more time as he poses for the hard cam.

Buster is an optimistic person who tries to find the positive side of most situations. He respects athleticism, professionalism, and hard work. Usually in a heated conversation, he's quick to de-escalate. Differences are better handled through sporting competitions. He pushes his allies, giving them opportunities first, at the cost of his own career. After struggling with addiction and PTSD for years, he's grateful for everything he has, and feels entitled to none of it.
Buster wrestled exclusively for Level Up for the first year of his career. He holds a respectable record and held the Level Up Wisdom championship for a period of 4 months, with 3 successful defenses. It remains the only championship he's ever held. Buster now enjoys a non-exclusive contract with Level Up, XWF, WGWF, and others. Part of his deals with each of those companies is that he gets an alchohol-fee dressing room, filled with snacks and Pepsi products.
Buster been romantically tied to fellow Level Up and WGWF wrestler, Emily Simms. After a period of 6 months in the friend zone, the two of them began dating when they were finally both single at the same time. Since July 2022, they have been inseparable.
Buster served as the head submissions coach at the Champions Advantage Performance Center in Vero Beach, FL for a period of 6 months. Training star students Riley Heart, Daniel Wolf, Kara Parker, and Ghost Mountain. He left that post in October of 2022 after a hurricane destroyed his beach front home. He now resides at the Velvet Rabbit Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV where he rents a modest apartment inside the building.
He has a growing list of enemies, as has their names written on a dry erase board on his wall but he won't share it with anybody. He also has a hit list of wrestling legends that was given to him by James Raven. Buster was told that he needed to defeat the 8 names on that list before he'd be ready to be a World Champion. The names on that list have not been revealed to the public as of the date of this posting.
Buster loves to drink alcohol (even though he's trying to remain sober) and is tired of your bullsh!t.
