Ring Attire: In the ring Joe BoXeR wears wrestling tights that extend to the area right above his knee. They're split down the middle on both the front and back into two colors; red and black. On the red side, the word "Joe" is printed down the leg in black and on the red side the words "BoXeR" are printed down the leg in red. He wears a loose, comfortable shirt to the ring; usually a Joe BoXeR t-shirt or an AoWF t-shirt from his private collection, and takes it off before the match. He has black wrestling boots with red on the bottom.

Appearance:

Head: Joe has always known to have dark, flowing brown hair. As of late, it has started to gray. He has a fair-skinned face, no visible marks or scars. Clean shaven. His eyes are dark brown, sometimes almost black.

Body: WZ symbol, standing for White Zombie, tattoo in white and black outline between his shoulder blades, very muscular.

Arms: Joe's arms are toned, well-built, and he has a Superman tattoo covering his left bicep.

Legs: His legs are incredibly strong, toned with a 7.4 inch scar shown on the outer thigh of his right leg from an early childhood incident.

Manager's Name: Jeff Augustee
Manager's Appearance: With only an inch and a few more pounds on Joe BoXeR, he is relatively of the same build. Once a huge alcoholic and nuisance of a friend, he had a serious knee injury from wrestling and became a changed man, which explains his slight limp. This ended his wrestling career. He'll come down to the ring in a relaxing pair of jeans, a random football jersey, and a Milwaukee Brewers fitted cap usually worn backwards.

Fighting Style: Joe BoXeR in his years of experience has picked up many technical manuevers and submission holds. However, he has an extreme passion for brawling and the hardcore elements as well. He is a very well-rounded wrestler and even has a few patented high-flying moves.

Trademark Moves:
1.) The Great Bazaar
2.) Rebellion '77
3.) Tarabomb

1.) Joe wraps his arms around his opponent from the back and tucks his head under his opponents left arm. He then lifts his opponent as high as he can in the air, as going for a back body drop, but he leans toward his left and leaps into the air, leaning toward his left even more and turning at a 45 degree angle. He eventually drops his opponent on their neck as they come crashing down.

2.) A high impact top rope elbow drop, landing onto the heart of his fallen opponent. The set up move is usually a tombstone piledriver or powerbomb.

3.) This move can only be done if Joe catches his opponent doing a hurricanrana or some move of that sort; Joe catches his opponent, and reverses it with a sit-out powerbomb and pin.

Finisher: The BoX Office

Description of Finisher: A twisting Blockbuster, but instead of just an old-fashioned neckbreaker on the way down, Joe puts his arm over his opponents throat, whilst using the other one to grab hold of his opponents neck/head.

 

 

Joel Cronus: Introducing now, hailing from Wauwatosa, Wisconsin...

("Waking Up Beside You" by Stabbing Westward starts up and Joe BoXeR, with his manager Jeff Augustee, appear from behind the curtain. They pose for a moment; Joe dressed in his usual ring attire and Jeff with a Brett Favre jersey, a backwards Brewers cap, and some cargo pants on. They begin to make their way down the ring, the crowd with mixed cheers and boos.)

Joel Cronus: He stands six foot five and weighs a shade over two hundred and fifty...accompanied by former wrestler Jeff Augustee...

(They make it down to the ring and Joe slides in, while Jeff makes his way around the side of the ring. Scouting the area, if you will.)

Joel Cronus: He is none other than JOE BOXER!

(Some of the crowd erupts as Joe goes to the corner to talk with his manager, eagerly waiting for the start of the match.)

History: http://fwrestling.com/host/exitmusic/boxer/joeboxer.htm

Joe BoXeR was born Joseph Hayes Engel on March 20th, 1975, in Oxford, Ohio. He was two years old when his brother, Matthew James, was born on December 25th, 1977. After only three years of growing up in the beautiful, yet small city of Oxford, the parents of these soon-to-be stars divorced and went their seperate ways. Joseph and Matt went with their Dad to Charleston, West Virginia. The brothers got along well, although Joe was a bit more quiet and less rowdy than Matt. All Matt wanted to do was play and have fun, but Joe felt he was more mature. Their father remarried and their new mom gave birth to a sister, Enika. When Joe was eleven years old, his parents had a new child and he had a new brother - Warren. Joe liked Warren a bit more than Matt because he felt they were similar. They both got decent grades, while Matt excelled in school and sports. Joe and Warren played some sports, but not much. They weren't after ALL of the fruits of life like Matthew was, which might explain why they are where they are and why Matt is where he is.

Joe was a cool kid in high school, breezed through it actually without having to go to a lot of the classes on a daily basis, and finished it up. He went off to college, but dropped out after him and his roommate, Jeff Augustee, decided to get into wrestling. Joe wrestled in high school, but grew up watching the professionals on television. Joe and Jeff made it big in a few smalltown midwest federations and Joe got his huge break in the SWF(sooner to become the SWA). He didn't leave Jeff behind because sooner or later Jeff would join the SWA and tag with Joe, winning the SWA Tag team titles. He prospered tremendously in the SWA. Joe made great friends and enemies; such as Notch, Thunderwolf, Quicksilver, Big Daddy for friends and Lex Demise, Sgt. G, Kevin Cool, Dr. Demise for enemies. Joe had his best times in The Real Deal and winning titles, and kicking the living hell out of Demise.

His worse times were with Demise and in his indescribable feud with him. His niece, Alexia, was captured and tortured by Lex Demise. She was mentally abused and tormented. She was only seven. To this day, she still suffers painfully from post traumatic stress. Also, her father Ray Kanzleiter, Tara's brother, was killed trying to save Alexia. Joe and Ray both suffered terribly at the hands of Lex and his lackeys. Ray's body couldn't take it anymore and gave in. Joe's body was relentless, well he was in better shape. Joe eventually came out the victor at the PPV they fought at. The SWA closed down in 98(I know it was later on, but I am doing this according to Boxer's timeline, so bear with me) and Joe was forced to find other work. He found his way into the NAW, but soon quit. NAW was corrupted. He fought in the PHWF for a little bit, defeating a big name; Fallen Angel. The PHWF soon halted and was never heard from again. He had split his ways with his friends from SWA and joined other federations that he didn't know who was in. He was in WEWF for some time, WCF for some time, FcW for a good time, and ESW for a short amount of time.

Now, he has made his way back toward the AOWF and has done good so far. But, before Night of Armageddon Four, Joe BoXeR's lovely wife, Tara, was kidnapped and controlled by Diablo. Joe has tried many times to get her back, but being under the control of Diablo has let him fail. He wasn't able to help Tara, but he was able to help his niece-now-turned-daughter, Alexia. He helped her rid herself of those demons created by Lex Demise, but he could see himself failing as a father. Alexia woke up from the nightmare she thought she was living in, and Joe gave custody of her over to his brother, Matthew Engel. He couldn't handle being a father anymore and he knew Matt would take good care of her. He apologized to his loving daughter and left her in the hands of Matt, then drifted off hardly to ever be heard from. He works gigs at radio stations for federations, so he still has his name in the business - somewhere.
