Entrance Theme - “Camera Thief” by Atmosphere
Custom Ring Entrance - As "Camera Thief" by Atmosphere starts and the low, bassy synths hum, the entrance remains empty. It's only as the beat and piano kick in that Bacchus makes his way out. He wears a long coat with a hood pulled up, his hair hanging down out of the front. A scarf covers the lower half of his face, and sunglasses obscure his eyes – were it not for the milky complexion of his skin, his head would almost assumed to be cloaked in a void of black. He carries the FIGHT! Empire Championship over his shoulder, the symbol of his victory at Arcadia; his demeanor suggests it as more of an albatross than a prize. He reaches up to pull the hood back and then scarf down, and upon finally removing the sunglasses, his eye sockets can only be described as smeared with black warpaint. His demeanor is grim – a far cry from his usual impishness – and his stare down at the ring burns with cold intensity.
As the song begins proper, he makes his way to the ring. If there are fans, he'll casually slap a few hands, but his mood and focus do not waver. At the ring, he ascends the stairs, wipes his shoes on the apron and ducks in. He paces the ring in a circle, taking it in, and if others have entered before him, he'll regard them for a moment before a wry smile finally overtakes him, looking like the grin of a Cheshire Cat or a wolf preparing to attack its prey. In his corner, he'll first remove the title, then the scarf, and finally the coat and black turtleneck he wears beneath it. After checking and adjusting his fight gloves, he'll lean back against the turnbuckle, hair hanging in his face, and staring down his opponents as he awaits the bell.

Why are you qualified to unite the TRIAD? - "I’d just like to see the look on Knox and Thad’s faces."
Wrestling Style/Resemblance - The fast-paced and strike-heavy offense of Finn Balor meshed with Seth Rollins’s ring IQ. Jonathan hits fast, hits hard, and hits with a plan. His greatest strength in the ring isn’t his athleticism (he’s just above average even after three years of training and conditioning) but his intelligence. Even if he would never outright cheat, he’s never found a mind game he doesn’t like and will switch tactics to create disadvantages or mismatches (e.g. while ambidextrous, he commonly fights southpaw simply due to the unfamiliarity most opponents will have)
Trademark Maneuver(s) -
Fetch the Guillotine (Slingblade into a Sleeper Hold Neckbreaker, occasionally cinching in the sleeper on the mat for a submission)
King’s Dead (Trouble in Paradise kick to the head of an opponent on all fours)
The Great Leap Forwards (Coast-to-Coast)
The Bottom of Everything (V-Trigger to a cornered opponent)
Set up to Finisher - A humble knee to the stomach or thrust kick to the knee. Anything to get someone staggered over and off-balance – the end goal isn’t to be fancy, it’s to pick someone up and drop them on their head.
Finisher - The Tragedy at Buffalo (Gutwrench Piledriver)
Alignment - Face (leaning Tweener depending if you find his smarminess endearing or insufferable. That said, he never cheats, and any “shortcuts” he takes tend to be cleverness and loophole exploitation rather than outright rule bending. He’s a trickster, but he’s a morally sound one – Chaotic Good.)
