CHARACTER INFORMATION:
Disposition/Alignment: Anti-Hero
Gimmick: Somebody who in his own mind, thinks he is the very best, and that he is the future of Elite Answers Wrestling. He's not overconfident, but he does ooze the confidence needed to be the perfect Elitist. He usually believes in everything that he says, even if it isn't the truth..but he will make sure that it is. He believes that all he speaks is the truth.
Character Bio: Growing up in Bronx, New York, Joso knew from the very start that he was going to ooze greatness in whatever he decided to chase. The Bronx was a very dangerous place to grow up in, and at a very young age, Joso had learned that to survive in The Bronx, he had to learn to fight, and he learned that effectively. What came with learning to fight, and making friends with what would turn out to be a Gang Member, they showed Joso the greatness of Professional Wrestling, and that day, he knew he wanted to be the greatest Professional Wrestler ever. He met Angelo Carter, and they trained together, and when Joso eventually got to EAW, he and Angelo were finally back together..but it wasn't long before Joso ditched Angelo for what he believes was for his own good. Now Joso is all alone, and that is perfectly fine for someone like him, because he wanted to be known as the greatest..all by himself.
Motivations: Joso wants to simply be known as the Best in the World, and he will do it at any costs. He wants to win Championships in Elite Answers Wrestling, and he wants to prove to the whole World that he is not somebody who should be doubted moving forward, but someone who should be praised and handed things WHEN HE EARNS THEM.

NOTES FOR WRITERS:
- Joso is very cool headed, he doesn't get easily aggravated, unless it's by someone who has the same cocky and annoying attitude that he has.
- Joso is VERY annoying. He likes to piss people off, and he will take advantage of that.
- Joso has a fair amount of In-Ring Smarts, but he likes to keep an equal level between out-wrestling someone, and simply beating the shit out of them.
- Because of growing up in The Bronx, Joso's main style is brawling.
- Joso will never cheat, because he finds it unnecessary, especially in his hunt to prove that he is the very best.
- Since ditching Angelo Carter, Joso has found himself becoming more of a lone wolf, not wanting to trust anybody instead of having trust issues. He just doesn't care to trust anyone but himself.
