Entrance Info
Theme Music: “Point Of No Return”- Immortal Technique
Entrance Description: The lights go out as the first piano key of “Point of No Return” hammers out. Searchlights circle the arena until :22, when Declan Black stomps out in his ring jacket, pads, boots, and tights, a towel around his neck, and a scowl on his face. Not looking at or being distracted by anyone or anything, he stomps down to the ring, hits a corner, and climbs to the second rope, whipping the towel off and holding it up, as the fans cover the ring with streamers. Declan hangs the towel around the turnbuckle, and drops down, undoes his ring jacket, throwing it to an attendant, and takes a corner, pacing slightly.
Background Info
Years of Experience: 2
Biography: Declan Black was born to wealth. He really wishes he wasn’t.
Not that it’s a bad ride, being a young, rich 23 year old. It kicks ass. Buys you an degree from Yale, lavish residences on every continent, cars, boats, planes…the works. But the reason why it sucks? Money doesn’t buy respect. In fact, it affords disdain. That’s what the young man dubbed “The Black Dragon” (for his fiery wrestling style, similar to Japanese Strong Style) has joined AWR to do away with: the idea that because he’s rich, he’s aloof and doesn’t care about anyone but himself. Not true.
Declan is hugely intelligent, but extremely introverted, he was at one point (mis)diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome. His parents, displaying that particular Waspish tendency to ignore the problem, enrolled him in many classes in his youth, among them yachting, violin, and piano. As a result, he became a young man of many diverse talents. Four days before his twelth birthday, he was assaulted by several other students at school, which caused him to start taking classes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, against the advice of his parents, who thought it an “unseemly” practice. He practiced the sport for a little over six years, eventually earning a purple belt.
On the relationship front, he and fellow rich kid Rebecca Miller were basically forced together at 13. She loved it. He despised it. Despised her. She was everything he hated: a stupid, spoiled, immature little girl that never appreciated anything. But God, was she ever clingy. Declan continued in misery for five years, until he finally moved out of his parents’ house at 18, and gave her a telling off that reached legendary levels of epicness. While at Yale, he met Danielle Cartwright, the young sister of his roommate Jordan Cartwright, and struck up a relationship that started as a “suspect” friendship, and openly evolved into a relationship on Danielle’s 16th birthday.
It grew even stronger when Declan discovered that Danielle had been sexually abused by her father, John Cartwright. Even after John was convicted of sexual assault and jailed (his last encounter with Declan required him to get surgery to reconstruct his nose), Declan lobbied strongly to have her move in with him. Eventually, her mother relented. Danielle and Declan currently live together in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada, and have for the better part of three years.
Declan began training under former Ring of Fire and New Era Wrestling (among others) World Champion Robbie Priest at the age of 20, under the condition that he would finish his degree at Yale. Black honored his promise, and graduated from Yale in 2011, finishing his training shortly after.
He headed for Japan’s Fire Pro Wrestling for two tours, from the fall of 2011 to the summer of 2012, even winning the 2012 Best of the Top Juniors Tournament in March. After returning stateside in October, he joined HEW after a brief tenure in the HCWA, and entered negotiations for a contract. He’s finally come to terms, and is excited to bring his quest for respect to North America!
