 BLAKE COVINGTON

Description: Covington is the stereotypical Missouri native, right down to the accent. Then again, he's also the stereotypical example of a person ashamed of their roots and their upbringing. Maybe that's why he's arrived here in Shootfire, under the wing and guidance of Jean Pierre Celine and Steve Greedy: To eventually become everything opposite of where he came from......perhaps better.

Appearance: Blake is VERY muscular, as both his upper and lower body are very well toned and defined. His build is very chiseled and very defined. He has short black hair and baby blue eyes. When he arrives to the arena (or to go to the ring for an in-ring segment or to do guest commentary at ringside), you will always see him decked out in a nice black 3 piece suit with matching black suede shoes. When booked for a match, he walks to the ring wearing a Maroon and White #98 Football Jersey (the same jersey and number he wore at Missouri State), which covers his thigh length singlet. The singlet will vary in solid colors (white, red, black, blue, maroon, etc.). He takes off the jersey shortly before the bell rings, to reveal the rest of his outfit: black elbowpads, taped fingers, black kneepads and black ankle high boots.

Biography: Brock grew up in southeastern Missouri, the second of 4 children. Brock spent most of his youth living in above poverty, playing football all four years at Poplar Bluff High School, earning a first team all conference, first team all district and a first team all state mention in his final two years of High School. Those distinctions helped to earn Block a four year scholarship to Missouri State University, where he starred at Defensive End, while earning a walk-on spot on the university's Wrestling team.

During his senior year, he was noticed during a wrestling competition by former VXW scout Darren Simmons, who signed him to a developmental deal. Nine months later, Covington became the newest member of the VXW locker room, where he soon engaged in a bitter feud with Matt Payne. The feud culminated not in a match, but rather, Covington missing Payne and instead diving off the top of a Hell in a Cell with Payne's two bodyguards breaking Covington's fall. Despite the bodyguards, Covington still landed wrong, breaking his left shoulder and left collarbone, thus putting him on the shelf for an extended period of time.

Two years have passed since that freakish accident, and Blake answered the only phone call he recieved at home while recovering........the phone call from Shootfire Pro. After a two year absence from the ring, Blake's determined to prove everybody wrong for not calling him earlier

Entrance:

[The arena suddenly begins to flash with dark red colors, as the fans slowly begin to show their disapproval. "Fight" begins to blare throughout the arena, as a slow chorus of boos begin to erupt.]

 "I,
I know your every move
I've heard your every word
I know you well

and I've,
got nothing left to prove
your threats I find absurd
I am your hell

Every time,
You think that I'm done
I come back stronger (stronger)

Every time,
You think that you've got me
I will fight you"

Emily: Coming to the ring now, accompanied by his mentor, Jean-Pierre Celine.....from Poplar Bluff, Missouri......weighing in at 285 pounds......he is Shootfire's CHOSEN ONE............BLAKE COVINGTON!!!!!

"And I will put you in the ground" 

[JPC and Blake walk out on the stage, as Blake just looks around, his face void of any emotion or reaction from the fans. Finally, both men make their walk toward the ring.]

"I will fight,
till there's nothing left
till my legs are gone

you won't forget me

'cause I will fight,
till my final breath
just to see you fall

I'll make you fear me

Every time,
You think I'm done
I'll come back stronger (stronger)" 

[About halfway down the aisle, Blake stops and looks at a ringside fan, who screams an obscenity at him. Blake attempts to react to the fan, but JPC gets inbetween them, pushing Blake towards the ring.]

"And every time,
You think that you've got me
I will fight you

and I will put you in the ground

'cause I will fight,
till there's nothing left
till my legs are gone

you won't forget me

Every time,
You think I'm done
I'll come back stronger (stronger)" 

[Blake reaches ringside, and crawls through the middle ropes and into the ring. He walks to the nearest corner and climbs up to the middle turnbuckle, raising both fists high in the air in confidence.]

"And every time,
You think that you've got me
I will fight you

Every time,
You think that I'm done
I'll come back stronger (stronger)

and every time,
You think that you've got me
I will fight you"

[HUGE HEEL POP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
