Wrestler's Name: Travis Reinhart
Nickname(s): 'The Clipper'
Gimmick:
Travis Reinhart never had designs on being a pro wrestler originally. He trained in the art of Muay Thai for many, many years; with aspirations of becoming a professional MMA fighter. He did decently well in the sport, compiling a 10-3 record in the amateur ranks over a two year stint from 2013-2015. However, in his thirteenth fight he had his elbow ripped up badly while being slammed to the mat, landing rather awkwardly. News came after that he would had to have it surgically repaired.
He spent some time on the shelf healing, and started to consider transitioning into pro wrestling at the urging of a good friend, who was a huge fan. So after he had fully recovered, he took up training at a wrestling school, and took to it surprisingly well with his athletic background. He made his wrestling debut in 2017 for a Canadian Independent wrestling promotion, and fans seemed to instantly take a shine to him for his thrilling matches and workrate.
In the latter half of 2019, he was paired up with another Canadian wrestler named Jessé Marchand in a tag team, and the two found an instant chemistry. They would wrestle together as a team for quite a few independent promotions in Canada throughout 2020, piling up victories and attracting eyes. In late 2020, the Imperial Wrestling Federation expressed some interest in signing the duo to join an expanding tag team division.
His path has now lead him to the new pinnacle of the industry: the IWF.
Reinhart has been dubbed the 'Clipper' because if an opponent isn't careful, Reinhart will take their head off with one of his kicks or drive it into the canvas with his 'Storms End' DDT variation. He's extremely confident, which can sometimes border on arrogance- but not typically in a verbally boastful way. He enjoys showing off his athletic ability and fighting skills in a bit of a playful way, depending on how one takes it though they may find it a bit insulting. He's very proud of his Canadian heritage, as well. Reinhart also has been known to have an eye for beautiful women, and a soft spot as well.

Weight: 106.59 kg (235lbs)
Place of Birth: Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
Date of Birth: December 7th, 1991
Alignment: Tweener
Appearance: Long blonde hair, worn in braids. Blonde ,stubbly beard. He has his left eyebrow pierced, and both ears in which he wears a pair of skull earrings.
Attire: On his lower body he wears long black leather wrestling tights, black leather belt and vintage medieval knee high boots. On his upper frame he'll go topless, with black elbow pads and black leather finger-less gloves. He also wears a black leather trenchcoat to the ring, which he takes off to wrestle.
Theme Music: "In The Air Tonight" by Nonpoint
Entrance:
{ The lights in the arena darken, and blue and white spotlights are cast upon the stage. Snow falls from the rafters, gently dancing in the lights, and landing softly onto the stage as the opening to Nonpoint's "In The Air Tonight" echoes throughout the arena. Travis Reinhart walks out onto the stage, pausing briefly to run his thumb across his throat in a slashing type gesture. }
Alison Valance: Making his way to the ring... from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada... standing six feet and three inches tall... and weighing in at two hundred thirty-five pounds... The Clipper... Travis Reinhart!
{ Reinhart confidently walks down the ramp. }
Well, when you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before, my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin
I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
{ He makes his way up the stairs as the drums build, and leaps over the top rope. He scales the corner, perching himself on the middle buckle, surveying the crowd in attendance before casting a glance over his shoulder toward the ring. He drops down and removes his jacket as the lights rise and the song fades at the 01:53 mark. }
Primary Style: Technical
Secondary Style: Submission
Other Style: Striker/MMA
Strengths:
*Technical Prowess- He's technically gifted; although not quite to the extent of his tag team partner, Jessé Marchand.
*Endurance- He has very strong cardio, and will try to work that to his advantage by pushing the tempo in a match.
*MMA Background- He's extremely well versed in MMA, having fought in the amateur ranks. He can switch styles and throw different looks at an opponent.
*Leg Strength- He has incredibly powerful legs, and throws some painful kicks.
*Cage Matches- He grew up fighting in a cage. So he feels at home fighting in a cage.
Weaknesses:
*Pro Wrestling Inexperience- He knows the holds very well, but navigating some of the "shenanigans" that take place in a pro wrestling ring is something he's still learning.
*Presses- He can be a bit overeager to try to hit his finisher too early in a match, leading to mistakes. He's accustomed to trying to finish fights quickly in the octagon, and it's carried over.
*Showboating- He can be a little too prone to showing off at times; doing back flips, kip ups, making a throat slashing gesture or throwing kicks into the air.
*Right Elbow- He had his elbow ripped up in a MMA fight a few years ago, and the joint is a little weak. He'd be likely to submit if he sustained a targeted assault on his arm.
