Entrance Music: "Symphony No. 9" by Therion
Entrance Description: The air breaks as Therion's metal version of Dvorak's "Symphony 9" shreds through the speakers, each beat of the drum drawing more energy from the crowd as the lights whip into a shade of red. As the song kicks into gear, onto the stag enters Kent Braddock, wearing very basic black wrestling boots and trunks, as well as a black hooded sweatshirt with the hood up over his head. Braddock marches down the ramp, stretching and loosening up as he does so, but never takes his glare off of the ring. He slowly moves up the ring steps, hands behind his back as he strides across the apron and enters the ring. Braddock steps to the middle of the ring, pulling his hood back and holding up one finger, before removing his sweater and stretching his wrists, awaiting the match.

"Rear Naked Choke, often transitioned into an inverted facelock takeover and grounded choke"

Bio:
Born the grandson of Elliot "The Masked Grappler" Braddock, young Kent was raised by the stories of his grandfather's wrestling accolades and achievements. Tales of wrestling bears and opponents from parts unknown inspired Kent to take up the boots himself. There was no other option; he had to be a professional wrestler. However, all was not as it seemed, as the legend that was "The Masked Grappler" was formed through slapstick and gimmicks over technique and strength. While Elliot Braddock was a master tactician and a technical competitor that set the bar for his time, he was out-shined by the other names of his time; remembered as the wrestling equivalent of the Lone Ranger; a character over a man.
Refusing to continue the jokes and gimmicks, Kent looked upon the sport that he grew up loving so much and saw nothing but cartoon characters instead of competitors. Leaving his family's "legacy" behind but taking the expert training of his Grandfather, Kent spent years of training, forging a brutal Euro-grappling style and has come to CZW with a hunger for competition, an undying respect for the sport.....and a massive chip on his shoulder.
