(TEW 2008) The New Blood

[SirFozzie]

I've decided to have some fun and create a number of new characters for the recently-released Total Extreme Wrestling 2008 game.

These new wrestlers will start unemployed, but hopefully will be picked up and have fine careers. These are done using the quick add wrestler feature in the editor, with tweaks as needed.

"Texas" Tim Hutton was born in 1988 in Amarillo, Texas, and has been a life time wrestling fan. He wrestled a couple times before he was fully trained (and before he turned 18), but now that he has been formally trained, he's looking to land a full time job in the wrestling industy.

"Wild Side" Bill Bradson has been one of the top independent wrestlers in the Northeast in the three years he's been in the business. He brings a high flying daredevil style to his matches. Combined with good skills on the microphone, he looks to go far. However, there have been rumors that Bradson has self-medicated himself to deal with the pain of his high flying style. He disappeared from the scene for four months in 2007, apparently to deal with these problems and has just recently returned.

(inspiration: Shawn Michaels)

Age:23 years
Style: Cruiserweight
Size: Middleweight
Finisher: Flying Cross Body (he calls it the Walk on the Wild Side)
Face Gimmick:Extremist
Heel Gimmick:Egomaniac

Thomas "Spike" Sorensen entered the Wrestling Buisness late, after being a bouncer for several years at a local honky-tonk. When a local promoter was short handed and needed a muscle bound intimidator for his shows, he gave Sorensen his nickname and some basic training, and Sorensen has found that currently it pays better then being a bouncer, and is trying to "learn on the job"

(Inspiration: Ron Simmons/Vader as brawlers)
Age: 30 years
Style: Brawler
Size: Big Heavyweight
Finisher: Ball and Chain (modified abdominal stretch)
Face Gimmick: Power and Paint
Heel Gimmick: Bad Ass.

I'll create about 20 of these on my own, but if anyone has ideas they want to put in, just let me know

Sam Graves has had a minor run in some southwest independents as "The Gravedigger". However, his lack of charisma may mean he never gets a full chance to become a full time wrestler.

(Inspiration: Terry Gordy as the Executioner)
Age:25 years, 6 months
Style: Regular Wrestler
Size: Heavyweight
Finisher: Stump Piledriver
