"Youth of Nation" by POD hits the arena, as Black and Tasha emerge to a chorus of boo's. Black walks down the aisle with a scowl on his expression, with Tasha following close behind him. He walks up the ring steps and holds the ropes open for her, as she slides in between the ropes. He follows after her, then makes his way to the turnbuckle, mounting the first rope and flexing for the crowd as she claps
Sebastian Black grew up in the poor parts of Detroit. His one mission in life was to become good at something that would help him get out of the hellhole, and on to bigger and better things. One day, he happened upon a wrestling school run by a local Indy legend, David "Hellraiser" Anderson. Since Sebastian had the size and toughness to be a professional wrestler, he, along with his high school friends Josh Styles, Tommy Gunn, and Eric Hammonds, decided to sign up. Fast forward three years, and Black had quickly become one of the top students. He graduated from Anderson's Wrestling Academy in the fall of 2001, along with friends Styles and Gunn. Hammonds had dropped out the year previous.
Upon graduation, Black separated from his two friends, and branched out on his own to the NWL. He quickly established himself as the number one contender to the world title within three weeks of joining the federation. It all culminated at the NWL Pay Per View, where Sebastian Black won his first singles title, and became NWL World Champion. But his desire to be in a competitive federation got the best of him. Immediately after defeating John Simmer for the NWL Title, he received a call from Styles and Gunn about joining them in the EWF.
Black jumped ship, and together with his partner Tommy Gunn, formed the Lincoln Park Mafia. They made an immediate impression on the federation with a vicious and calculated attack on the New Breed, formerly the Wolfgang. During their EWF tenure, the LPM engaged in a month long feud with EWF Tag Team Champions, The Whirlybirdz. They lost a closely contested match against the Whirlyz at the Pay Per View, and shortly after, the EWF went on hiatus, leaving the LPM with an uncertain future.
Black wrestled for various independent federations, until settling on the IWF. President Johnny Hawke's reputation had made its way to Black due to both their ties with the EWF, so Black now enters the "Franchise's" IWF, with hopes of becoming the franchise of the IWF. Gunn and Styles followed shortly thereafter, and once again they made an immediate impact, with another brutal assault, now known as the "Lincoln Park Drive-by", on then Tag Team champions, the Joker and Kakuma, as well as Prime. This prompted a title match between the Joker and Kakuma, and the Lincoln Park Mafia, as well as the Heavenly Bodies. The LPM won the match, and became the IWF World Tag Team champions, a title they held until the closure of the IWF.
Upon closure of the IWF, Tommy Gunn and Josh Styles decided to sign with a promotion in Japan to further their all-round knowledge of the sport. Sebastian Black moved on to the UWA, and promptly formed an alliance with Steve Somers. The two wrecked havoc on the roster, and it all culminated at 'Black Dawn', when Steve Somers captured the UWA World Heavyweight title, and Sebastian Black won the UWA International Action title. Shortly after losing the title, the UWA shut down causing Somers and Black to go their separate ways.
Black eventually ended up in the XWA, where he captured the XWA United States title in only his third match in the federation. Along the way he defeated Stephen Clayborne, younger brother of arch enemy Todd Clayborne, in a vicious tazer match. After a crushing defeat in which he lost his title, Black lost interest in the direction that management was taking the XWA and decided to once again join forces with his longtime friends, Styles and Gunn.
Once again, the terrible trio are back at it, reuniting the Lincoln Park Mafia in Outlaw Wrestling. As of press release, Black is contemplating a shot at the newly re-opened Titan Wrestling Federation. When asked for a comment he simply stated, 'I'll go where they offer me the most.'
