Welcome to Superstar Spotlight!
In this new segment I will offer a spotlight to one or more of the many talents on Modern Mania Wrestling's stellar roster and will try to show what makes them special. We will explore their career and accomplishments prior to joining MMW and take a gander at their movesets. You can expect updates whenever I feel like it. In this first installment we will take a look at: (I totally didn't steal this intro from Slashmaster)INTRODUCING FIRST, FROM THE LAND OF DYSTOPIA, WEIGHING IN AT 226 LBS, HE IS GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNSLINGER!!!!!BIO The mysterious man known as Gunslinger started his early life born in the county of Dystopia, a few miles south of Tombstone, Arizona where the legendary Arizona Chance was born. He was reportedly rather quiet as a child, and didn't seem to get into wrestling until the age of thirteen, when the local ABCW company came into town. He was very inspired by his near-hometown hero when he saw Arizona Chance defend the World title against noted villain Dr. B. From then on he went to study the tapes, watching his new idol in action every week from the four cable channels he could get in his native county.
By the age of sixteen Gunslinger was finally able to meet his idol by running away to Tombstone, Arizona and sleeping in a hotel for four days while spending his time looking for him. Gunslinger claimed that he would be the one to someday retire Arizona Chance. Once turning eighteen he moved down to Tombstone to learn from the best, Arizona Chance. No one knows for sure exactly when Gunslinger started wrestling, but many reports say that he started around 2006, with his first major feud being against Big Thuggee. Many people believe that this was the wrong feud for him, because at fifty one years old not even Jobber Joe could get a good match out of Big Thuggee. His years of work on the independent scene led him to be signed by ABCW, now run by semi retired Arizona Chance, as a way to run a mega storyline where Gunslinger retires Chance. This was proved successful, and the rest is history. Once ABCW closed down in 2014 he moved to RnR Wrestling with his manager: Arizona Chance.
MOVE-SET
Finisher
Redemption- A move where his clothesline knocks him to the ropes, while Gunslinger "slings" back off the ropes and unleashes a vicious lariat on his opponent.
Signatures
Last Crusade - A throwback to Arizona Chance, it is a Death Valley Driver Dystopian Destroyer - Top Rope Cutter Slingersault - Slingshot Moonsault

I would like to see Pathos next. I believe he had an "accident" when carving a pumpkin with his older cousin SlashMaster which deformed his face and caused him to always be crying (or sound like it anyways). His face was temporary fixed (as well as his crying problem) and he thought he left it all behind as he became Jacob Hearse, but an later ring injury undone all the plastic surgery on his face and he became Pathos once more.
Oh, and I bet he cries tears of blood.
He might also be the godson of Mort Issin, and inherited his funeral home.

I remember watching ABCW before it closed down, and I thought the story between Gunslinger and Arizona was an excellent storyline, and the perfect one to end one of the most stellar careers in wrestling history.

He's proof that dreams will eventually become your reality if you work at it

Wait, I just noticed something else. He’s using the Last Crusade... as a SIGNATURE?!?!? The most protected move in wrestling history (tied with the Ace Crusher and the Gravedigger) and he’s using it for near falls? If I ever find the guy I’m going to beat the hell out of him with my cane, dammit!

If I ever find the guy I’m going to beat the hell out of him with my cane, dammit! Wow gramps. You still think you can whip that guy into shape? And, what is with that purple whip? (The next thing I'm going to ask is "Was that a Jojo reference?". "Was that a Jojo reference? Wait!")

I’d whip his ass and then say I was able to wrestle in six different decades. Two birds, one... how does that saying end again? Sorry, senior moment.

I believe the term is "two birds with one stone".

This is most definitely an "unauthorized" biography, and I can say, without a doubt, that someone took quite a bit of creative licensing.

Have you checked out Ruffian's profile in 80's by SlashMaster? He should be...familiar to MWM.

Professor When's past regeneration is a part of 80's Mania Wrestling history (but not a card in the game yet).
