THE STORY

OCC: 

Initially: When I first created Venom back in 2006, I was returning from being retired and decided that it was time for new characters. Weapon X was a failed experiment and the old 7 Deadly Sins would be retired. So Venom was my second 7DL but first 2nd generation superstar as he is the son of Scorpion.

Current: After being absent from the game for 11+ years, I returned to the game and brought back Xavier as a tag team with Marcus, forming the team of Sins of the Fathers in GCWA. Once GCWA closed, I took Xavier on a singles run that has seen him go to multiple feds like OCW, TPW XWF, what became his longest tenured fed, but the one I have struggled the most to find success in. In 2023, he'll continue to participate in cross-promotional events, but his new home will be IIW until the end of the calendar year. Will re-evaluate then.

IC:

Initially: The son of former OCW/ICWF great: Scorpion. Though this was a fact that was unknown to Venom and to Scorpion until a few days before his career was set to begin in NLW. While Venom has tried to avoid his father, it has been difficult as his father is trying to kill him to fulfill a contract that will gurantee his freedom. Scorpion has been hired by a man seekin' revenge on Venom for nearly killing his son at an underground wrestling event. Despite battling his father and this done, Xavier was at the peak of his career in the 3 years that followed, winning numerous tournaments and the World Title in 3 separate occasions before stepping away from the sport in 2009 due to personal reasons though never officially 'retiring'.

Current: Xavier, along with Marcus Ka'Derrion decided to return to wrestling after being absent from the sport for over 11 years and formed a tag team called "Sins of the Fathers" and joined the GCWA in August of 2020. They had a great seven month run, in which they captured the tag team championships in two separate occasions, and only stopped because the federation closed its doors. They were the active tag champions at that time. Xavier also built a nice singles record and earned himself a World Title shot by winning a "Crowning Achievement" match against three other competitors. Again, the federation closed so he didn't get a chance to 'cash-in'.

From there Marcus and Xavier decided to go their separate ways in June 2021, Marcus feeling he had scratched the itch but Xavier, 'bitten' by the success he had found, decided to continue solo and see how far he could go. He joined OCW, a promotion his 'hated' father is a Hall of Famer of, to see if he could do what the 'old man' could do. Well in his first match he won the World Title and had a good, albeit short, 3 months run. He won two other singles titles and was well on his way to match his father's success there but then the owner had a meltdown and after what has now become known as "the purge", Xavier decided not to return to the promotion.

After a short hiatus, in December 2021 he set his sights both in a young promotion called TPW and a promotion that has been around since the late 90's: XWF. Unfortunately, it is here where his struggles begun. In TPW, he did OK, making it to the finals of the World Title match but losing, and received a North American title shot down the line but also lost. That promotion closed only after 4 months, so he decided to stay in XWF and wrestle there exclusively. He had mostly downs there, losing 'the big matches', had a few pay per view matches, but lost them all... He had 3 separate title shots which he had to work hard for, but 2 within a week's time and lost both (in controversial fashion to ease the pain I guess). He earned a just above .500 record he is not proud of, as he has always been a winner, and a champion no matter where he has gone. His contract was up for renewal in December, and he decided not to renew, instead focusing on some cross-promotional events at the end of the year which included IIW's Ice Crown Rumble. He did okay there, entering at number 17, eliminating Latoya Hixx, Pequeno Dinosaurio and Terry Marshall before being eliminated himself by Thomas Stone. He had two engagements this year, the Denzel Porter Invitational 2 where he lost to Jack Sullivan as well as OCW's Carpe Noctem 2 event in which he had two matches, winning his first vs. Mose Maurako but then losing to Corey Smith.

Despite his struggles in 2022, he was recognized by the wrestling community and awarded one of only 64 golden tickets for This-Is-Awesome Promotion's World Series of Wrestling event which ran from October through December 2022. He did well there, surviving both cuts, being in the final 16 and finishing ranked #4 in the world and earning himself the WSOW video game cover.

Now that all his commitments are over and done with, he has decided to come back to IIW and make it his home for the 2023 calendar year, having had a good time at the rumble and appreciating how he was treated and welcomed by management then.

Unfortunately just months after him joining, IIW closed its doors. Xavier managed to win 10 of 12 matches, though the one he lost was the Ice Crown Rumble so that one doesn't really count and the draw was a no-contest match. So he had a great run, and also won 3 individual titles, becoming a Triple-Crown champion but alas, all good things come to an end.

After taking a short break, he had a two match stint with FTW, then he realized it wasn't for him and it was here he decided to go back to TPW, and try to 'right a wrong' per say after this promotion was giving him a second chance, after all, he had lost a loser leaves fed match against his tag team partner Marcus. But TPW was under new management and so he returned... But he has also joined the Smash brand of WGWF, a sort of, kind of but not really "sister" promotion of TPW.

It is between these two promotions that Xavier found his new goal, win titles? Sure, but get to 100 matches before calling it a career. He is currently at 93 matches, including some that are only scheduled. How will the "Venom" story end? Stay tuned.
