Appearance
Physical Appearance: A short poof of blond hair plooms out from above steely blue eyes and an ever present smirk. He may be pushing mid-life, but Adam Superstar has managed to keep himself in reasonably good shape. Not nearly as sculpted as he was in his youth, this latest version, however, is no gym slouch.
Ring Attire: Black wrestling tights baring a graphic of stars and blood spatters running down each side of his legs in red. A single elbow pad over his right elbow, some black wrist tape, black knee pads, black ring boots, and black shin pads baring his namesake.
Entrance Attire: A sleeveless Adam Superstar shirt. img.photobucket.com/albums/v290/AdamSuperstar/SuperstarShirt.jpg

Entrance
Theme Song: Tearing Away by Drowning Pool
Entrance Scenario: The opening guitar riff digs out, playing a game with the fans ears as it bounces from one end of the arena to the next. A brief pause... BREAK! And then, wham! A blinding white light, almost celestial, blares from the gorilla position. A lone figure steps in front of the light and stands for a dramatic moment before the light is cut and Adam Superstar stands off against the world. A grin on his face and swagger in his step, the self proclaimed Underground King makes his way toward the ring, being sure to snub as many jeering folks as he can along the way. Ascending the ring steps, Adam makes the ring his own with mere presence. He strolls along the rings apron, still grinning as bold as he can and maybe jaw-jacking with a few ringside "peons" before bowing between the ropes, holding presumptuously victorious hands aloft, and eventually abandoning the spotlight by taking to his corner.
Biography
Years Pro: Although I've RP'd for Adam on and off for about seven years, the character is intended to have been making a career of wrestling for almost twenty years, a span of time that includes both independent and main stream promotion stints.
Career highlights: RWF New Blood Championship, RWF Six Man Tag Team Championship(x2), RWF Tag Team Championship, RWF Big Money Championship, RWF Hardcore Championship(x2), RWF 2003 Grand Tournament Winner, DCE United States Championship, DCE Hardcore Championship, XWA Grand Championship (Undefeated), EBWF Tag Team Championship(x2), EBWF North American Championship, EBWF World Heavyweight Championship, APW World Heavyweight Championship
Showmanship
Alignment: Heel
Catch phrase/s: "Been there, done that..." "I am the larger than life living legend!" "Don't you wish you were me?"
Match of Choice: Traditional one on one rules
Weapon of Choice: Steel chair, which he'll sometimes incorporate into his finishers and signatures.
Style
Wrestling Style: Having a "been there, done that" career in his back pocket, Adam Superstar has developed himself into quite a well rounded performer, though he tends to stick with his technical/brawling bread and butter.
Match Tactic: Adam Superstar likes to dictate pace for the most part. His tactic in any match, being something of a savvy and sly veteran, is to let his opponent make mistakes and then to exploit them. That's not saying he's above rushing some offense. Adam just likes things to go one way... his way.
