Gimmick Description: Nate doesn't have a gimmick; wrestling's just an excuse to keep moving from place to place and work out some of his frustrations
Entrance
Entrance Theme: "The Only Thing They Fear Is You" by Mick GordonEntrance Description: "The Only Thing They Fear Is You" starts playing, and Nathaniel Bonhagen steps out from behind the curtain with the opening chord. At the top of the ramp, he takes a brief moment to survey the assembled crowd with a neutral expression; when the beat drops, his face becomes a mask of controlled anger as he locks his gaze on the ring and stalks purposefully toward the impending encounter. Once at ringside Nate bounds onto the apron in a minor display of athleticism and steps between the ropes, then prowls in a slow circle around the ring like a predatory beast examining the confines of a cage before he moves to his corner to await the opening bell.
Moveset
(Reasonably powerful and clearly trained, Nathaniel can perform all the bog-standard moves one would expect from a man his size; i.e., suplexes, various slams, spinebusters, arm drags and the like)(The majority of Nate’s moveset, though still developing, is centered around takedowns and joint locks; a study in which he is well versed and competent, but not yet a master)
(When brawling, Bonhagen seems to draw from a boxing background, with a few precision nerve strikes mixed in)
Signature Moves: (1) Tracheotomy - A reverse STO into a Hot Shot on the second rope
(2) Get Wrecked - An overhead belly to belly suplex into the turnbuckles
(3) Reptilian Brain - An expert stiff-fingered strike to the soft tissue at the base of the skull (A momentarily stunning strike, the effect doesn’t last long and won’t finish a match; this should typically be used as an instinctual, reactive attack to halt a face’s growing momentum, or to take back control from a heel after a beating)
Finishing Moves: (1) Sins of the Father - An elevated Texas Cloverleaf with a knee placed on the back of the opponent's neck; similar to the Liontamer
(2) Star and Bars - A reverse Northern Lights suplex rolled through into a scissored armbar
Manager: His fraternal twin sister, Lily
