Note: Alex Richards is a special occasion only performer in APW.
My Name: Nathan
Character Name: Alex Richards
Nickname: "The King of Mass Confusion"
Hometown: Anyplace that needs pain, suffering, pills or Zim-Quila (real home town Chicago, Illinois)
Height: 6'4
Weight: 325
Alignment: Cult Fan Favorite (Alex wrestles like a heel and in some ways still thinks like a heel. But for the most part Alex is a fun loving, generally good natured guy who's wild and crazed antics endear himself to the crowd.. unless you happen to get on his bad side.)
In-Ring Style: Alex is a limited all rounder. He enjoys using power moves and submission moves primarily during a legal fight. But he loves a good hardcore brawl when given the chance. Alex is quite athletic for a man of his size and has the ability to take to the air from time to time.
Bio: Due to a highly traumatic childhood Alex Richards, who at the time called himself Alexander Richards seemed to have the primary goal of making people suffer and fear him. This lead to a prison record and eventually a career in professional wrestling. One day Alexander found himself in a match for a Hardcore Championship where he ended up sustaining a severe concussion. Alexander, in a haze, decided to medicate himself with a mixture of alcohol and pills, which had the side effect of allowing Alex to forget about that, or at least dull his past, and bring out his more good natured, albeit reckless side. Alex decided he didn't really like how he behaved when he was Alexander Richards, so he continued to medicate himself embracing his new found good nature. This lead to him creating his own brand of alcohol, Zim-Quila and much more success in the world of professional wrestling.
Alex is primarily known for his work within the Guardians stable where he is considered a wild card, notorious for his outside the box thinking and outlandish ideas which seem to work out for him far more often then they should. Alex also owns a bar, the Drunken Dragon, which also houses the headquarters for the Guardians.
Attire: Alex has a shaved head and recently required a brownish red beard. He does however have several chest hairs. Alex wears a pair of black jeans and a orange t shirt with the slogan Drink Zim-Quila You Didn't Need Your Liver Anyways. He occasionally wears various colored ties to the ring as well depending on his mood. He always carries his black doctor's bag to the ring with him which can be loaded with absolutely anything from weapons, to a good stiff drink, to chicken wings, to a spare pair of underwear. You name it, it might be in the bag.
Theme song: I'm Not Like Everybody Else by The Kinks
Pic Base: WALTER!
Known Associates- Shaun Zach Richards, Alex's brother and cameraman. Rebecca Thatch, Alex's girlfriend
Entrance: The opening guitar solo to I'm Not Like Everybody Else by the Kinks plays then Alex Richards steps through the curtain, his doctor's bag in one hand, a boot filled to the brim with Zim-Quila in the other. He chugs his drink then tosses the boot into the crowd before raising the title in the air to massive cheers.
Adilene Floyd: Making his way to the ring, from Chicago, Illinois, weighing in at 325 pounds, he is "The King of Mass Confusion" ALEX RICHARDS!!
Alex then starts walking towards the ring a serious look on his face with a hint of a smile making it seem like he's probably putting it on, which he is. On the way to the ring he delivers his trademark hard high fives to the fans. At least those brave enough to want them. He wanders around ringside talking to fans for a few minutes killing time before finally entering the ring.

The Unconscious Truth- Alex lifts his victim up for a press slam then dumps him over the top rope to the floor. He can also set this move up when his opponent is on the floor for other reasons. He follows him to the floor then boots him in the gut and lifts him for a powerbomb. He gets a running start and slams his opponent's head after off the ring post. He rolls him back in for the (hopefully) easy pinfall.
The God Slayer- After defeating Odin Balfore with his moonsault Alex added it to his move set. It is very rarely used and only in important matches, even more rarely kicked out of.. the opponent is more likely to move before impact
