Thad Duke

NOTE: Each Cycle is going to contain 12 wrestlers and 12 wrestlers ONLY. We are going to draft the twelve wrestlers from the list of applications that are posted in this forum. So, make sure your application is as detailed as you'd like it to be. Given the care and attention we are putting into this project and the wrestlers involved with it, the more detailed the characters the more likely they will get drafted.



Wrestler's Name -  Thaddeus Duke

Height - 6'1"

Weight - 223 pounds

Entrance Theme - 'My Name Is Human' by Highly Suspect

Custom Ring Entrance - Keep in mind locations will vary greatly from event to event. It'll be rare that we are inside a standard arena. So, come up with some taunts or mannerisms your wrestler might exude when they are walking to the ring. Think less about the surrounding and more about the interaction.

Gender - MALE

Hometown - New York City

Why are you qualified to unite the TRIAD? (this will go on your profile that will be posted on our website) -

Bravery:  Thaddeus Duke is a veteran commander of four wars leading both from the air and the frontlines.  While most commanders delegate orders to the battlefield, Thaddeus always thought it better to fight alongside those under his command.  In wrestling, whether boo'd or cheered, he's been known to confront impossible odds, consequences be damned.  He has also martyred himself to help others in the face of adversity.  Not once in his storied career has he ever shied away from a fight.

Wit:  Earlier in his life, he showed a knack for intelligent military strategy which catapulted him into a position of leadership.  In his second life he's focused himself more on family and business than wrestling.  He was able to outsmart and outwit the business savvy Marcus Welsh in order to wrestle away control of his former promotion.

Strength:  Being a war veteran, he's no stranger to living in adverse and inhospitable conditions.  He's been shot, shot at and shot down on multiple occasions and brushes himself off to stand and fight again.  In wrestling, he's easily one of the toughest outs in the industry.  He's made a career of being incredibly tough to beat.  While brute strength may not be his forte necessarily, he has a certain mental strength that is matched by very few.  His unrelenting motor keeps willing him back into the contest when lesser men fall to defeat.  Like his father before him, Thaddeus once defeated the entire roster in one night to become world champion... right after defeating an unbeaten tag team to take their straps too.





Wrestling Style/Resemblance - He's a bit of an all rounder.  He can fight, fly, grapple and tap you out.  He has world class athleticism and trained in parkour to create what sometimes appears to be physics defying evasive maneuvers.  He has the showmanship of an HBK, the intensity of a Kurt Angle and an incredible in-ring work ethic like a Bret Hart.

Trademark Maneuver(s) - M.O.A.B - Mother Of All Bombs is a shooting star press that can be innovated from multiple positions rather than just from the top rope

Set up to Finisher -  Savage Elbow - kinda self-explanatory

Finisher -
1:  Heat Seeker - SweetChin Music with no legslaps needed
2:  Legend Certified - Logan Paul's crisp, not clunky version of the Buckshot Lariat  (I'd prefer this one was used for false finishes)
3:  End Game - Hell's Gate submission

Alignment -  Babyface
