THEME SONG & ENTRANCE

Theme Music: 'Burn In My Light' - Mercy Drive [WWE Edit]

SHORT ENTRANCE: As 'Burn In My Light''s unmistakable intro sounds throughout the venue, the fans turn their head toward the entranceway, and out comes the superstar (at least in his own mind) with chiseled supermodel looks (at least in his own mind) and a superhero body (at least in his own mind), who stops a few feet out from the curtain. Without hesitating, he throws his arms up in the air and holds his chin high, posturing tall as gold pyro rains behind him, painting an image of an undeniable sensation. Letting it breathe for a few seconds, Bruce then takes to the ring, his eyes shooting to a few fans offering their thoughts of him in the form of obscene finger gestures and even worse comments-- but he does his best to pay it no mind. As Booth heads in, he ascends the second turnbuckle and raises his arms once again- this time in a slow, graceful motion, almost like a shot straight out of a movie. He closes his eyes, living in the moment, instead of having to look at the fans, and steps down from the second rope, but never quite leaves that moment of self-absorption, as his music is cut off. 

MAIN EVENT / PPV ENTRANCE:

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Motivation to Compete (Delete ALL that do NOT apply):

Least Favorite Match Types: No Disqualification Matches, Steel Cage or any barbaric structures of the sort, Ladder Matches, Tables Matches
[OPTIONAL] Favorite Weapon: Primetime Briefcase

Fighting Style: Technical Wrestling

Ring Strategy: Bruce is a very methodical wrestler with a smart approach to his matches. Aware of his inexperience, he likes to wear his opponents down with rest holds and painful submissions that force them to fight out of it, while he can regain energy and get back some momentum. Bruce likes to dictate the pace of his matches unless with a far more experienced wrestler, where he then resorts to cheating to obtain advantage at any means necessary. Due to Bruce's slow and methodical approaches to his matches - the ending of his matches are almost always very quick and explosive, as he's saved up energy to put an end to the match at any means necessary.

In-Ring Strengths: Ring IQ, Mat/Submission Ability, Low Temper

In-Ring Flaws: Overzealousness/Cockiness, Relatively Limited Moveset, Low Temper

WRESTLING INFORMATION

Pro Debut: GAMBIT - PRIME WORLD WIDE (June 17, 2023)

..

Finishing Moves: Maximum three (3) and one (1) optional Super Finisher (SF)
1. Director's Cut
Booth hooks the opponent's head into a cravate and leaps off the mat to deliver a powerful Ace Crusher/Diamond Cutter.

2. Primetime Shot
Nothing pretty about this one, in either a No-DQ match or when the referee's vision is obstructed (either by distraction or by a bump), Bruce takes his Primetime Briefcase and cracks his opponent over the head with it.

SF. Catching Director's Cut
As the opponent goes for an aerial attack, Booth catches them out of the air with impressive precision to hit the Director's Cut, and when he hits it-- that's a wrap.

..

Signature Moves: Minimum of two (2), maximum of five (5)
1. Snap Powerslam
As the opponent comes off the ropes/runs at Booth, he leans back and catches them in a spinning powerslam with such swift quickness, it's almost impossible to counter.

2. Hangman's DDT
With the opponent stationed on the apron, Bruce takes them into a front facelock and pulls their body through the middle & top rope, leaving their ankles on the middle rope to keep them elevated, before delivering a devastating DDT.

3. Crossbody Off The Top Rope
Taking to the top turnbuckle, Booth springs off the ropes and comes down on his opponent with a body press that can be maneuvered into a pinfall when landing.

4. Headlock Backbreaker
Holding the opponent in a headlock, Bruce twists his body to a position that sees his back pressed to the opponent's-- and drops to a knee while pulling them forward as hard as he can, cracking their back over his.

MINI BIOGRAPHY
Before he became "Box Office" Bruce Booth, Aubrey West was set to star in an upcoming Disney+ series as a lead male character in a show geared towards a teenage audience about a young high schooler searching for "the one". The project was set to begin filming in 2024, but it'd been announced in 2022, and after it was, Twitter users got curious about this young, upcoming actor who they'd never heard of before. Their curiosity got the best of them, and old tweets resurfaced which, we'll say were, "controversial". Now, ask West about it, and he'll tell you they were from decades ago, and that he'd changed as a person. The tweets were from 2021. 

After a few months, West was finally fired by Disney and the project was scrapped entirely, although some speculate he was fired because he kept hitting on his co-stars, and not the tweet. Nonetheless, as a nobody with a terrible reputation, he was pretty much blacklisted from Hollywood-- an event that was unbelievable to West, who always saw himself as a charisma machine with an undeniable body to accompany his eye-catching looks. However, he didn't mope for too long, as he called up his cousin, Cosmo, and saw about beginning pro-wrestling training. I mean, why not? It seems easy enough, and it's not very hard to rise to the top as long as you have an aura, and charisma. Right?! 

And, so, we're here. He goes by the name "Box Office" Bruce Booth, inspired by his two heroes; Bruce Campbell & Cliff Booth, and definitely thinks he's one or the other-- but nonetheless, he's here to have a long career, to win every championship there is and reach mainstream heights in order to show Hollywood, just what they missed out on. So far in his EWC run, he's made progress on that statement. Making a name for himself as part of EWC's undoubtedly best faction, The House, Booth has obtained the Primetime Briefcase and looks to position himself as an even greater star on Prime than one can imagine...
