WRESTLING INFORMATION
-------------------------------------------------
Wrestling Style: Both Showman and Technician. Loves to take risks, and loves to show up opponents. Simon's favorite specialty match type is a ladder match because he likes to be innovative and creative while taking risks. Possesses good power and a will to win that is second to none.

Alignment (Face/Tweener/Heel): Massive Heel, though this could be changing very, very slowly as “The Savior” gets more followers. (Holds dual citizenship in the US and Canada)

Years Pro: 23 plus.Retired from the ring in 2017 immediately following SCW Rise to Greatness that year, due to health concerns stemming from his 2016 stroke. Unretired in March of 2023.

Ring Attire: Full length bright white pants, knee pads, elbow pads and boots.

Finishers: Leading the Revolution, Down with the Sinners, From the Heavens

Finishers Descriptions (If Needed):

Leading the Revolution: A lethal, lightning quick superkick to the opponents jaw which he can execute at any time with no warning. Think sweet chin music, without tuning up the band.

Down With the Sinners: A destructive finisher in which Simon moves in behind his opponent, and grabs them in an inverted gut wrench. Then all in one powerful motion, he swings them up into a wheelbarrow position before slamming them to the canvas with thunderous sit-out face-buster

From the Heavens: His original finisher, now reserved mostly for high profile matches, Simon picks the opponent up in a fireman's carry and heads to the top rope. From there, he leaps off the top and flips, landing as if performing a senton bomb on the opponent.

Signature Moves: A Change in Attitude, Revelations, Smite

Signature Moves Descriptions (If Needed):

A Change in Attitude: This counter is performed when Simon is irish whipped to the ropes by his opponent. After ducking or sidestepping their attack, he sends them crashing to the canvas with a powerful Anderson style spine buster.

Revelations: With his opponent over one shoulder and Simon seated on the top turnbuckle, Simon cradles their head, then stands and leaps off of the second rope, driving the opponent into the mat with all of his body weight crashing down on top of them while they on the back of their neck and shoulders first. A very dangerous move, called The Island Driver in other places.

Smite: Basically a powerbomb setup into a release overhead belly-to-belly suplex. First getting his opponent in position for what appears to be a powerbomb, Simon allows the opponent to float out and upward so they are almost seated just below his shoulders. Then after pulling the opponent inward so their shoulders touch their knees, Simon locks his hand behind their neck and holds them there briefly before hurling them high over his head, crashing on the canvas back first.

Strengths: Belief in himself. Simon Lyman truly believes he is the best in-ring performer in pro wrestling history, and works his ass off to back that up with every performance. Simon wants his match to be the best match on the card EVERY time out. That fuels him as much as winning. He also displays the confidence of the 4 time World Champion and 16 time World Tag Team Champion he is.

Determination. Simon always wants to put on a show for the fans, fans he hopes he can convert to followers. He is also exceedingly competitive himself, possessing a great desire to work his way back to the top, and not wanting anything handed to him, unless he thinks that he can get away with it.

Experience. Simon has been a professional wrestler his entire adult life since graduating high school at age 17 in June of 1995. He feels this is what he was born to do, and that he does it better than anyone else.

Weaknesses: Not a great submission wrestler. In fact it's rare that he uses a submission move for anything other than an opportunity to slow down a faster opponent. Simon definitely does not try to win matches this way, and any submissions he does use would be pretty basic ones.

Temper can get the best of him at times in the ring. The loss of temper can lead to Simon being more dangerous, but also more reckless.

Takes chances. Loves to go high risk and though he tries to be smart about the chances he takes, it's called high risk for a reason.
