Wrestler's name: Cliff of Doom
Gimmick: Cliff McManus wanted to be one thing when he was a kid: a professional wrestler named Cliff of Doom. He grew up and became a teacher instead. Now, he has been forced to resign from his teaching job because he tried to restrain a student during a fight using a front face lock. With the loss of his teaching salary, he has had to find other jobs to supplement the meager pay he gets from Seth Lerch. During the week he’s a trainer at the Long Island Wrestling Association and a clerk at CVS. Plus, he’s still being held to the promise that he made to his wife when he started in the WCF: if he doesn’t win the WCF World Championship by August 28, 2017 (one year to the day of his debut), he will retire from wrestling for good. Times are tough for Cliff of Doom.
Height/weight: 5’7”/190 lbs.
Hometown: Selden, NY
Alignment (Face/heel/neutral): Face
Appearance/attire: Sunglasses and vest and tights, both of which are black with silver trim
Music: “No Leaf Clover” by Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony
Entrance: The arena goes dark. James Hetfield finger picks over the sound of strings and wind instruments. When the rest of the band kicks in, a spotlight shines on Cliff of Doom, who is at the top of the aisle posing with his arms stretched, fists clenched, and his head thrown back while he lets out a yell. He walks down to the ring. At the end of the first verse, the song cuts to the guitar solo, by which point Cliff climbs on to the second rope and repeats the same pose from before.
Style: High flying
Favorite Moves:
• Super kick
• Handspring back elbow
• Double foot stomp
• Senton splash
• Single leg running front dropkick
• Fisherman neckbreaker
• Spinning double leg gutbuster
• Springboard 450 splash
• Frog splash
Trademark moves and descriptions:
• Cliff Dive (Suicide Somersault Senton over the top rope)
• Cliffhanger (Top rope C4)
• No Leaf Clover (Texas Cloverleaf)
Finisher and description:
• Doomstone (Jumping sit-out Tombstone)
• Doomerang (Cliff gets his opponent up in a vertical suplex, but instead of falling backwards, he sends his opponent falling forward, striking the opponent in the face with his knee on the way down)
