| Josh McCool grew up in Oregon, and was an All-State
football player and wrestler under the tutelage of Russell Ziset, who would
later move on to the AWA himself. As a popular member of the team, McCool had
several run-ins with Ziset as he represented the view of the team, including one
famous altercation involving an injury that Ziset saw as letting the team down.
He went on to attend the University of Oregon for a term before making his move
into the world of professional wrestling, becoming the youngest wrestler in the
AWA. He quickly amassed a 10-0 record, including a victory over Ziset in a
retirement match, before the original AWA folded, then made his way to the
Southeast Wrestling Federation, where he was a franchise player and title holder
before his run was ended due to disagreements with the rumoredly corrupt
administration. He compiled an 18-1 record in the AWA's most recent incarnation,
including his first Heavyweight title reign. He has since been earning his degree and waiting for the right moment to make his
glorious return to the ring. |
| "Son of a Bitch" Josh McCool morphed from a very unassuming appearance to a truly intimidating and confident appearance. He either wears a T-Shirt and tearaway pants or a pair of wrestling trunks with the decal "S.O.B., Inc." emblazoned on the back. He is strongest in a standard match, but can endure a high amount of pain and will have an advantage in most any match he's involved in. Likely the most intelligent and technically sound man in the AWA. Sprawling across his back and down his arms to the elbow is a huge, all-black tattoo, save for tribal symbols left undone in the blackness. He wears thick hoop earrings in each ear and is slightly tan, with arms that could likely snap tree trunks and a shaved head which only adds to the intimidation factor. McCool is brash and if you think you are on his level, you will be informed otherwise. |
