Character Name: Elijah Dixon
Nickname:
Hometown: Cincinnati, OH
Height: 6'
Weight: 197lbs
Alignment: He's a loose cannon, you decide.
In-Ring Style: US Military Hand-to-hand Combat (punches, kicks, takedowns, throws, blood chokes, limb manipulation, pressure point control)
Bio: Elijah Dixon started getting in trouble as soon as he could walk, from stealing candy in preschool to facing a felony Grand Theft Auto charge at fourteen years old and everything in between. It was the felony charges and the fact that he could have been tried as an adult that scared him straight, luckily the judge in the case could see the remorse in young Elijah’s eyes at his trial and gave him a very unique sentence- he had to enroll in a private military school and enlist in the Army upon graduation from High School.
During his time at Forest Hill Military Academy Elijah excelled both academically and athletically, participating in boxing, wrestling, and football with scholarship offers coming as early as his sophomore year from major colleges wanting him to play football. Of course those offers were all for nothing as Elijah fulfilled his court ordered commitment and enlisted in the United States Army the day after his high school graduation.
Upon discovering that he was an excellent marksman during Basic and Advanced Individual Training Elijah chose to become an Army Ranger with hopes of becoming a sniper. After his third deployment and completion of Sniper School Elijah joined Lt. Colonel Mason St. Croix’s unit in Afghanistan as a sniper. Having grown up a wrestling fan Elijah was fascinated with the fact that his commanding officer had been a World Champion between deployments and the two quickly developed a bond over their love of pro wrestling.
Elijah served a few more years in various roles including instructing other snipers before choosing to receive his discharge after serving eight years even though the judge had only required four. Elijah knew what he wanted to do as a civilian and sought out his former CO, Mason St. Croix now retired from both the Army and wrestling due to injury to train him.
After a solid year of training Elijah made his debut for Pure Class Wrestling, winning their Underground Championship in his debut match but then he disappeared-- there was no trace he ever existed. His family couldn't even file a missing person's report with the police or Department of Veterans Affairs because it was as if his entire life had been erased.
Now a year later and he just shows back up as if nothing ever happened, but where has he been? Tune in to APW Metal to find out.

Theme song:"Never Back Down" - Hyro the Hero
Pic Base: Rich Swann
Entrance:
“CLICK CLICK”
The sounds of a bullet being loaded into a chamber is heard as the house lights dim and a blue crosshair illuminates on the screen. The crosshair twitches ever so slightly until it’s perfectly still and a single thunderous gunshot sound rings out through the arena immediately followed by “Never Back Down” by Hyro The Hero. Elijah Dixon steps through the curtain, head bobbing to his music as his eyes focus on the ring and he makes the walk. Once at ringside he slides under the bottom ropes and waits for the match to start.
