History
Growing Up Odyseus grew up on the streets of Brooklyn, New York - under the name Will. He made a habit out of fighting because he had to fight for everything - food and money. He grew fond of fighting it and decided he wanted to try it out as a living.
The Wrestling Begins A minor wrestling club was coming to town and were apparently holding auditions for people who thought they had potential. Will wanted to go but had nothing to wear as he was so poor. He stole a shirt, trousers and a pair of shoes from a store, and went to the auditions. He was undoubtedly the best there and he was offered to go to Japan to take part in various tournaments. When he heard he would get paid for it, he was in no doubt about it.
Japan He spent a good few years in Japan, and picked up a few wrestling tips and tricks along the way. When he was 24, he was taking part in a televised tournament in Tokyo, and and made it to the
finals. It was then he was spotted by Ernest Craven, the President of the
Union of Wrestling Masters. Craven knew that this guy had talent, but he
didn't think he was quite ready for the big leagues.
The Big Break Will spent another two years travelling the world, going from tournament to tournament. He won lots of trophies and earned a lot of respect. Craven spotted him again in Mexico, and was impressed with how much he had improved. Craven finally offered him a contract, and Will came to the UWM under the name Odyseus.
The First Weeks In UWM He dissapointed his fans by joining Ernest Craven's Bullshit Productions stable, picking up the UWM Atlantic title soon after.
Life In The Big Leagues After turning his back on the fans, he turned his back on the entire UWM. Craven fired him and sent him to Jamaica where Odyseus picked up more gold to add to his growing collection. During that time the EPW was coming into UWM and Odyseus was quickly picked up by Venom. Soon after, the man who gave Will his big break, Ernest Craven, passed away after being assasinated. Lori, his daughter, closed UWM until Rik Stud convinced her to re-open.
TNW Union of Wrestling Masters was soon changed to Tornado National Wrestling. Odyseus and Pisspale carried on their rivalry into TNW and the 2 are still squabbling. Odyseus has looked to have the World Title won on several occasions but Pisspale always finds a way to keep hold of it. These 2 will no doubt feud until Odyseus get's what he has never had before. The World Championship around his waist... Finally won the title at Revenge of the Janitor, lost it, won it back, setting another record. Finally entered in the Hall of Fame.
