Personality
Joe is a very determined man who believes that the most important thing in wrestling is honour. More so than gold, money and victory.

Promotional History
Joe began training in his hometown of York, England at the age of 15 and had matches up and down the country from the age of 15 to 17 at Indy events where he began to respect each and every man and woman to step in between the ropes and his style showed that with a focus on the technical. However he was told that he should pair his technical prowess with swift, hard strikes.

Joe despite his young age then spent a six month stint on excursion to Premier Japan Pro Wrestling as a young cub. Where he had a run in the Tag Team cup of Japan with Daisuke Oyama in the team named the Kyōryokuna(powerful) Technical Masters. Losing to the eventual winners and reigning tag champions Puro no hīrō (hero’s of Puro) where Oyama injured his ribs and had to take a short absence where Joe had matches against Haru Watanabe, Kano Ito, Minori Sato and Luca Antonio. Leading to a Jr Heavyweight Championship match against Minori at his final show Wrestling Domination. Which he was unsuccessful in.

Joe then returned to the west and spent a month in the UK before getting a call from the people who were trying to build a new promotion in American and wanted him to be one of the faces of, Final Destination Wrestling. Joe bulked up and trained hard and this commitment impressed the boomers who gave him an opportunity to become the first FDW World Heavyweight Champion which he to the surprise of many was successful in.

Joe is also the current HCW Television Champion and defends it weekly on their tv show.

Title History
Joe was the inaugural FDW World Heavyweight Champion and won it at Best of the Best beating Ka0s in an Hell in a Cell match with the END GAME Brian buster.

Joe then defended the championship against Cademan in a singles match at Survival of the fittest before Eternal debuted. Joe’s third defence was a 2 out of 3 falls match at the relaunch of Best of the Best when he freed Cademan from Eternal’s clutches before they were attached post match.

At Resurgance Joe faced off against up and comer Oliver Noble tapping him out with the Achilles lock. He then faced Jacob Hansen at Superbrawl beating him with his END GAME to keep its 100% hit rate and him as still the champion.

at Ironman Joe was challenged by Adam Fairmont who had attacked Joe’s manager months prior but more importantly beat him by cheating on aftershock that same night. Joe shockingly went down 2 falls early on but fought back to win hitting his superb END GAME to win with just seconds left.

After the match Joe and his coach celebrated with a bottle of Jack Daniels in front of his home county fans before he was hit over the back of the head with the bottle and then Tyler Nax came out and betrayed him and beat him for the title with his own move with his Ultimate Opportunity wish.
