Character Info
Name: Gunnar Stahl
Twitter Handle (if applicable): @stahloficeland
Height: 6'2”
Weight: 215 lbs.
Hometown: Reykjavík, Iceland
Age: 20 (DOB: 02/16/1995)
Alignment: +2 (He's kind of hilarious, wants to be loved by everyone, and actually a really fun guy to hang around when they're not super competitive and trying to stretch the hell out of everyone.)
Entrance Music: “Äppelknyckarjazz” by MOVITS!
Entrance Description:
Physical Appearance: Based on Gunnar Nelson, UFC fighter.
Ring Attire: Blue and white MMA-style shorts, black boots with kick pads, wrist tape.
Gimmick: Loveable Eurotrash MMA Hipster
Personality: Stahl, surprisingly, is kind of a really cool guy. He's humorous, good-natured, and he loves to smile. However, when it comes to wrestling, it's not a joke to him. He's ultra-competitive, believes his technique to be second to none, and may just be right (most of the time). Unlike his partner, he likes to think of himself as the more rational one of the group and more than often is the one trying to keep Mattias out of trouble that his little brain gets him into. He also believes to have the greatest set of facial hair on the face of the planet and that Jean Claude Van Damme is the greatest action hero ever.
List up to three strengths of your character; they can be in-ring related, personality related, whatever you think helps define your character:
1. Natural Athlete. Both due to his physique and ability to adapt at multiple sports over the years has allowed Gunnar to pick up things faster than other athletes around – even with a year of starting to learn both Mixed Martial Arts and the catch as catch can style of wrestling, his abilities are already at a sharpened level to compete against some of the best.
2. Overly Competitive. Try telling Gunnar that you’re better than him at anything, he'll attempt to prove you wrong and pull just about every proper trick within the rules to do so.
3. Submission. If there is one thing that Gunnar Stahl brings to the table that makes him a formidable opponent is the fact that once he is able to sink in a submission, your chances of escaping without any harm from it are slim to none. He's also got a niche for being able to lock them in from the damnedest counters or when people least expect him.
List up to three weaknesses of your character:
1. Overly Competitive. It is a very double-edged sword in the fact that trying to outdo somebody in a competitive sense may lead to him taking more risks or wrestling out of his element, something that can be exploited by others with far more experience.
2. Inexperience. Even after almost two years in America, Gunnar doesn’t have as much experience in both fighting and pro wrestling compared to his peers and others in the industry. Even with a heightened sense of maturity and natural abilities, he is far more subject to being mistake prone than the average wrestler and being unfamiliar with other styles thrown at him.
3. Heights While he may not look it, you get Stahl anywhere up on a top rope or on some sort of higher ground, he is going to be very, VERY hesitant about doing anything…and that, of course, opens a window of opportunity for others.
Athletic Background: 1 year of MMA training, multiple years of hockey since youth, and roughly a year of pro wrestling training in the King of Sport/catch as catch can style. Also a very proficient swimmer, having set national records on the butterfly stroke in his country of Iceland.
Biography: Born in Reykjavík, Iceland as the youngest of three (and most definitely named after the character in D2: The Mighty Ducks due to his father’s matching last name), Gunnar Stahl was born and raised in a competitive environment where his older brothers excelled at sports and the young one followed suit, especially within swimming and hockey (which he took up after encouragement from his Swedish mother). As a means of taking up a new challenge, Gunnar choose to learn MMA once in university, finding a love within it due to seeing many action movies and having one Jean Claude Van Damme capture his heart. Gunnar soon formed a bond at the same dojo he started training with Mattias Jepsen, who took him under his wing and it allowed the two to excel at MMA plus make the decision to break into pro wrestling together for a new challenge (and the possible fame and fortune that could come along with it). It wasn’t long before they were scouted by the private scouts of Cleon Gray, allowing Gunnar to come to America and the (R)Evolution Dojo – all with the purpose for him and Mattias to help lay down Cleon’s discipline on the roster. During that time, they eventually found themselves deserting Cleon Gray and winning their first (R)Evolution Wrestling championships with the Tag Team titles, which they held for a significant period of time until being defeated by the Queensguard - who injured Mattias in the process. During that time, Gunnar had struck an unlikely friendship with the War Machines faction forming in (R)Evo and eventually it wasn't long before he and Mattias joined them during their reign as Tag Team champions. But now, Gunnar stands as a singles competitor whose goal is to do the one thing nobody in (R)Evolution Wrestling has done quite yet.

Entrance Description:
The lights start to flash around the entrance as the beat and intro to “Äppelknyckarjazz” start to play over the speakers.
[div align="center"](Spring!) Grannen är hack i häl, han påstår att jag stjäl från hans äppelträd
(Spring!) Jag vill ju väl men måste göra något åt vår misär

(Spring!) Klart jag har mina skäl och för övrigt är ju grannen miljonär[/div]
Out from the back comes Gunnar Stahl! With a towel draped around his neck and a War Machines kutte covering his chest to go with his wrestling gear, Gunnar Stahl comes out confidently marching down from the ramp! Not gesturing to the fans, Stahl makes his way to the ring with purpose before getting in and taking a small skip in his step before raising his hands! Letting Anna do her assigned job as his ring girl, Gunnar starts to stand in his corner, removing his towel and kutte, getting water from one of the assistants outside of the ring before turning back to face the ring, taking a second to throw in a few shadow punches, beginning to bounce on the balls of his feet while ready for battle.
