Superman

### Accolades

5x NoDQ CAW Champion, 1x NoDQ CAW Tag Team Champion, 1x NoDQ International Champion

**Kal-El**, better known as **Superman** (civilian identity **Clark Kent**), is a NoDQ CAW Superstar who debuted in Season 1. As one of NoDQ CAW's most popular Superstars, Superman has been a mainstay of the league since his debut and is generally considered the most legendary figure of the league, with defeating him being considered a rite of passage into the upper echelons of NoDQ CAW. Superman has held the NoDQ CAW Championship a record five times, two more than any of his closest rivals, and has enjoyed Championship success with other titles too. Superman has had iconic moments with NoDQ CAW as both a babyface and a heel, as well as brief runs as a neutral party or tweener. Primarily, though, Superman performs as a babyface.

## Appearance

Superman is, by external appearance, a human male in peak condition and standing at above-average height. His handsome, square-jawed face is topped with slicked-back black hair and his trademark outfit is a blue bodysuit with red boots, a red cape, red trunks and a yellow belt. On Superman's chest is an emblem bearing the mark of his Kryptonian family, the House of El. Given it resembles the Earth-letter S, it is from this emblem that his heroic moniker of "Superman" is derived.

## NoDQ CAW History

### Season 1

Superman debuted in match 17 of Season 1, facing Freddy Krueger, Michael Myers and Ryu in a Fatal Four Way Match to determine a #1 Contender to Jason Voorhees' NoDQ CAW Championship. Superman put in an impressive performance and delivered some exciting high-flying moves, which helped lead him to victory in the match. In the following match, Superman faced Jason for the NoDQ CAW Championship. Jason proved a tough opponent but Superman's strength and resilience wore the Champion down. A Super STO almost spelled doom for Jason, but Jason abandoned the match, abusing the Champion's Advantage to get counted out and retain his Championship. The two would face one another once more in the following match under Ladder Match rules. Though Jason put up a determined fight against Superman, the challenger was able to keep the Champion down for long enough with a Top Rope Underhook Suplex to retrieve the NoDQ CAW Championship, marking the beginning of Superman's first run with the Championship. Superman's first Championship defence came against Spider-Man, who pushed the Champion to his limits. Superman struggled to keep Spider-Man down on the mat for anything more than a 1-count for much of the match's duration. In the end, neither man defeated the other in this contest as the match's time limit expired, leaving fans to wonder who would have won in a no time limit situation. Superman would again put his Championship on the line against Spider-Man in a Triple Threat Match also featuring the Hulk in the following match. Superman almost got himself counted out when he want to check on Spider-Man, who had been dragged to the outside of the ring by the Hulk, but Superman went on to win the match, forcing the Hulk to submit to an armbar.

Superman would team with debuting Superstar the Terminator in a match against Freddy Krueger and Michael Myers. Superman would attempt to tag his partner in, but the Terminator hopped off the ring apron, leaving the Champion open to a beating from Myers, who claimed victory with a 10/31. On the last match before the mega event, Impact, Superman defending his Championship in a TLC Match also featuring Freddy Krueger, Spider-Man and Ken to determine which of Impact's matches would be for the Championship. Superman was successful in this endeavour, retaining his Championship and preparing to defend it against the Terminator at Impact. At Impact, the Man Versus Machine Challenge saw Superman and the Terminator face off in a 2-out-of-3 falls challenge. The first fall required the competitors to destroy their opponent's car, which the Terminator did using the supplied sledgehammer. The second fall required the two to try to break as many objects in the back plaza as possible- Superman won this part of the challenge by a single point. In order to break the ensuing tie, the third fall was a wrestling match. The Terminator pushed Superman to the limit and seemed unrelenting. Over the course of the match, however, Superman wore his opponent down and was able to pick up the victory in the hellacious match following a Super STO.

### Season 2

The opening match of Season 2 would see Superman defend his Championship against Spider-Man in an Ironman Match. Superman would win the match 2-1 after Spider-Man lost a point to a disqualification for accidentally hitting the referee with a Spear intended for Superman, before Superman earned a second point via pinfall. Superman's next challenge would come in the form of Michael Myers in a Trip To Oblivion Match. The two would push one another to the limit, with Myers bloodying and dazing Superman with an oil drum. Eventually, however, Superman would wear Myers down enough to chokeslam him off the edge of the structure and into oblivion. Superman would once again defend his Championship against the Terminator in match 29. During the course of the match, Superman was bloodied but refused to back down, almost pinning the challenger following a Spinout Powerbomb. Ultimately, the Terminator attacked Superman with foreign objects and was disqualified from the match. Superman and the Terminator would fight once more in the following match, this time in a Hell In A Cell Match with the additional stipulation that the loser would be forced to leave NoDQ CAW. Superman was now fully prepared for the Terminator and dominated much of the fight, putting the challenger through the roof of the cell, sending both men crashing through to the ring canvas below. Superman would eventually put the Terminator away with a new finishing move, the S-5, sending his foe packing.

Superman's next challenge would come in the form of Lara Croft. In order to prevent count-outs, as in Lara's #1 Contendership match with Batman, the match was contested under Hardcore rules. Croft took command of the match at a number of points, giving Superman a Reverse Suplex through a ringside commentary table at one point. Ultimately, a Super STO sealed victory for Superman, who retained his Championship once more. Superman's next opponent would be Link, who had earned the right to a Championship match in his debut. The match proved a challenge for both men but Superman was more worn down, having competed in such a series of physically demanding matches. In the end, a match free of gimmicks would be Superman's undoing: Link connected with the ZDT to pick up the win and end Superman's first NoDQ CAW Championship reign. Superman would have a chance to regain the Championship from Link in a Fatal Four Way Cage Match also featuring Batman and surprise entrant Michael Myers. Ultimately it would be the horror icon who walked away from this match the victor, leaving Superman behind as he escaped the cage.

At Carnage, Superman would move past his Championship ambitions for the time being and focus on a dream match with Batman. The two put on an incredible contest and took one another to the limit. In the end, however, Superman came just short of putting away his fellow superhero and succumbed to a Gotham City Drop, giving Batman the win. Superman would be tasked with taking down Triple H at Bound For Glory, a difficult enough task in its own right but with the added pressure of possibly making the difference between victory and defeat for the NoDQ CAW team. Superman put up a spectacular fight against Triple H, but the Cerebral Assassin was able to do in the Man of Steel with a pair of successive Pedigrees, ending Superman's second season in NoDQ CAW on a much lower note than his first.

### Season 3

Superman would begin his third season in dramatic style, teaming with Batman as The Superheroes in the first opening round match of the T4 against The Slashers. At the match's climax, Superman turned on Batman, delivering a Speeding Bullet to his partner. This allowed The Slashers to pick up the victory in the match and started a lengthy rivalry between Superman and Batman. Superman was scheduled to face Batman in a #1 Contender's Match for the NoDQ CAW Championship in match 47 but didn't show up, leading to Mr. Clean taking his place in the match before winning it following the use of some underhanded tactics. Superman would play further mind games with Batman during match 53 when his theme music would be played during a #1 Contender's Match for the NoDQ CAW Championship between Batman and Spider-Man, distracting Batman and allowing Spider-Man to capitalise and win the match.

Finally earning a NoDQ CAW Championship match, Batman would defeat Mr. Clean for this Championship in episode 56. After the match, Superman would jump Batman in a surprise attack, unveiling a new look with a black costume and goatee. In the following match, Mr. Clean would face Batman in a rematch for the Championship in a Warehouse Match. Mr. Clean had been offered $100,000 by Superman to win the Championship then hand it over to Mr. Clean. Ultimately it made no difference as Batman would win the match and Mr. Clean would end up gravely hurt during the contest. On match 58, Superman would make his way to ringside and brutally assault and injure Wade Needham. At True Pain, Superman challenged Batman for the NoDQ CAW Championship in a Hell In A Cell Match, having signed a contract that would ensure the two would never face one another in a Singles Match ever again. Batman would retain the Championship after giving Superman a chokeslam through a hole in the roof of the Cell to the mat before.

### Season 4

Superman would team with Mr. Clean against Spider-Man and Batman with the #1 Contender spot for the NoDQ CAW Tag Team Championship on the line. Superman and Mr. Clean would con their opponents out of victory, confusing Batman on the matter of who the legal man in the ring was, with Superman pinning Batman after a surprise hurricanrana. Superman and Mr. Clean would receive their Championship opportunity against the Serial Killers in match 61 but this time would find themselves the victim of a con, with Michael Myers using his partner Leatherface as a decoy while he snagged the Championship belts suspended above the ring.

In match 65, Superman would enter a Trip To Oblivion Match for the NoDQ CAW Championship against reigning Champion Batman, Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees. Superman and Batman would be the final two in the match but it would be Batman who stood victorious after giving Superman a Gotham City Drop through the floor and into Oblivion.

Defeating Mr. Clean in short order to earn the #1 Contender's slot, a new Superstar going by the name of Mr. E would challenge Batman for the NoDQ CAW Championship on match 70. Defeating Batman, Mr. E would unmask and reveal he was Superman. Superman's actions violated the contract he signed prior to True Pain and he was stripped of the Championship, simultaneously rendering the contract null and void and meaning Superman and Batman could face one another in a Singles Match again. However, as the referee's decision in a match is final, Batman was no longer the NoDQ CAW Champion. As a result, the Quest For Gold mega event tournament was set up to determine a new NoDQ CAW Champion. Superman competed in one of three matches that served as a prelude to the event, facing Batman and Spider-Man in a Steel Cage Match. An S-5 to both opponents allowed Superman to escape the cage to victory.

At Quest For Gold, Superman would face Batman in the first round of the tournament. Superman would give Batman a S-5 through a ringside commentary table before pinning him to advance in the tournament. In the second round, Superman faced Link and would deliver the S-Bomb to win the match. In the final of the tournament, Superman would face Jason Voorhees for the NoDQ CAW Championship. Having finally overcome Batman and Link, the two men he had never been able to defeat in one-on-one contest, Superman found his confidence restored and self-doubt erased, returning to his old attire. Though Jason would win the match and Championship, Superman would retain his inner peace. Superman would be drafted to NoDQ Eastern as Bobby Spade's first pick.

### Season 5

On the first episode of NoDQ Eastern, Superman would face Mr. Clean in a winning effort. The two would face one another again the following week in a First Blood Match, with Superman winning again following a series of repeated punches to Mr. Clean's face. After the match, Mr. Clean would assault Superman but Batman would make the save. Superman would return Batman's favour after Batman defeated Mr. Clean on the fourth episode of NoDQ Eastern when the Joker would attack Batman after the match. Superman would face the Terminator in a No DQ Match in the main event of the episode as part of Bobby Spade's vendetta against the Terminator, having promised the Terminator he would fire him whenever he next lost a match and knowing the Terminator had never defeated Superman. However, incensed with the beatings he'd taken at the hands of Batman and Superman, Mr. Clean interfered in the match and hit Superman with the Magic Eraser, allowing the Terminator to win the match.

On the fifth episode of NoDQ Eastern, Superman faced Hakushi to earn a place in the NoDQ International Championship Ladder Match at Jackpot. A Super STO from Superman was enough to seal victory for the Man of Steel. On the last episode of NoDQ Eastern before Jackpot, Superman and Mr. Clean would underline their rivalry in a Steel Cage Match. Both men would eventually decide to scale the cage simultaneously, with Superman hitting the ground a fraction of a second before Mr. Clean. At Jackpot, Superman would enter the Ladder Match to crown an inaugural NoDQ International Champion, also featuring Lex Luger, Leatherface and Razor Ramon. In the closing moments of the match, Leatherface would punch Superman off the top of a ladder, but too late as Superman had the Championship belt in his hand, securing his place as the Champion.

Superman would defend his NoDQ International Championship against André the Giant in Paris, France and the footage would be shown during episode nine of NoDQ Eastern. In spite of André's huge size advantage, Superman found the strength to lift the Giant for an S-5 to win the match. On the thirteenth episode of the series, Superman would defend his Championship against Razor Ramon in a Ladder Match. An S-5 would give Superman the time needed to retrieve the Championship belt and retain his title just as Ramon knocked the ladder down and sent the Champion crashing to the ringside area. Superman would enter the 10-Man Royal Rumble Match on the following week's episode, hoping to win and be named the new #1 Contender to the NoDQ CAW Championship. Superman would be the first entrant in the match but would secure no eliminations, being the second elimination himself when the Joker and Leatherface teamed up to throw him out of the ring.

Superman would compete in a match against an opponent of the fans' choosing on the fifteenth episode of NoDQ Eastern, with 46% of the vote winning the poll, wanting to see Superman and Batman face one another once more. After an astonishing encounter, Batman would pick up the victory. On the following episode, Superman would defend his NoDQ International Championship against Ganondorf and the Joker in a Triple Threat Match. A Speeding Bullet from Superman at the ringside area would see Ganondorf counted out of the match but the Joker would pin Superman to win the Championship after hitting him with a crutch behind the referee's back. Furious at how events had transpired, Ganondorf demanded a match with Superman on the following week's episode before putting Superman through a ringside commentary table and taking a count-out victory. Ganondorf would continue to assault Superman after the match. At end of the episode, Superman would appear to save Batman from the Joker and Leatherface but hit Batman with a Speeding Bullet and S-5. The two superheroes would collide on the final episode of NoDQ Eastern, but it was revealed in short order that Superman was Ganondorf in disguise and Superman had no quarrel with Batman after all.

At Deadly Sin, Superman sought a measure of revenge against Ganondorf. Superman arrived in his black attire with a goatee. Superman would brutalise Ganondorf during the match before knocking Ganondorf completely unconscious with an S-5. At Domestic Disturbance, Superman would challenge Spider-Man for the NoDQ Pacific Championship. The two men took one another to the limit but Spider-Man would pick up the victory after hitting Superman with a hurricanrana in mid-air.

### Season 6

At Spring Cleaning, having been absent for the entirety of Season 6, Superman made his return, wearing a grey attire and sporting sideburns. Superman would enter the 10-Man Royal Rumble Match to name a #1 Contender to the NoDQ CAW Championship. Entering eighth in the match, Superman would eliminate the Terminator, Mario, Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers to win the match and become #1 Contender. At Going the Distance, Superman would face Mr. Clean for the NoDQ CAW Championship. The two men brutalised one another but it would be Superman who won the match following an S-5. After the match, a furious Mr. Clean would assault Superman further but his assault would be ended by the intervention of The Babe.

### Season 7

Superman would defend his Championship against Las Vegas Link in the first episode of the Season. Link would try to play the numbers game in the match, enlisting the assistance of Ganondorf to attack Superman, but the Mario Bros. would even the score and attack Link, leading Superman to victory. Superman would next defend his Championship on the fifteenth episode of NoDQ Action, this time against Spider-Man. After close-fought contest, Superman would pin Spider-Man following an S-5. Jason Voorhees would be Superman's next challenger on the seventeenth episode of NoDQ Action, with Superman again coming out victorious, this time following a Super STO. At Fully Charged, Superman would defend his Championship against Zatoichi. Superman would prove to be Zatoichi's toughest opponent and would maintain a stronger position in the match the longer it went on as Zatoichi wore down. However, a misplaced Speeding Bullet allowed Zatoichi to deliver a Zatoichi Slam to win the match and the Championship.

### Season 8

Superman would enter the 2006 NoDQ CAW Cup. His first round opponent would be the Joker. Despite what appeared on paper to be a mismatch, the Joker would set off an explosive device that seemed to literally scramble Superman, allowing the Joker to win the match and advance in the tournament. The Joker and Frankenstein would mock Superman throughout the rest of the tournament, with the Partners in Crime attacking a midget wrestler dressed as Superman, Super Slut, and playing a video stating Superman was dead. At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 1, Superman sent a response, stating he was not dead and would see the Joker at Box Office Smash. At the mega event, the two collided in the ring. The Joker attempted a number of dirty tricks in the match, including another bomb and the use of a pair of Joker Clones, but Superman would win the match. However, it became clear after the event that Superman had pinned one of the clones and had not truly defeated the Joker.

At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 2, Superman was scheduled to face the Joker but would be attacked by Mortal Kombat. The Joker would arrive to deliver the Whoopee Cushion to Superman but the match never started. At The Road to Violent Impulse 1, Superman would face Mortal Kombat in a Handicap Match. If Superman won the match, he would be allowed to choose the stipulation for his match with the Joker at Violent Impulse; if Mortal Kombat won, the Joker would be allowed to make that choice. A Super STO to Sub-Zero sealed the assassins' fate and allowed Superman to make the decision- he and the Joker would face one another in a Roadkill Match. At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 3, Superman would face Jason Voorhees in a match selected by Jason's Violent Impulse opponent, Frankenstein. Ultimately, the scenario was a set-up by the Partners in Crime, who would both attack their upcoming opponents and end the match in a disqualification victory for Jason. At Violent Impulse, Superman and the Joker had a hard fought Roadkill Match, but Superman would pull off the victory following an S-5, putting the Joker through a crate to the road below and into the path of an oncoming car, eliminating the Joker from the match and giving Superman a decisive win.

At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 4, Superman would challenge Frankenstein for the NoDQ CAW Championship. Superman would be the first person to kick out of the Monster Bomb before hitting the Champion with a Speeding Bullet and Top Rope Splash to win the match and the NoDQ CAW Championship. At The Road to Born With Rage 1, Frankenstein got his rematch against Superman for the Championship. However, the Joker would interfere in the match and attack Superman, giving the new Champion the disqualification victory. Enraged at losing his opportunity to win the Championship, Frankenstein would go ballistic and take out his anger on everyone present, before Link arrived to help even the odds for Superman. At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 5, Link and Superman would challenge Spider-Man and Batman for the NoDQ CAW Tag Team Championship. The duo proved formidable, with Link picking up victory for the team following a Duo ZDT to Spider-Man. Regardless, at Born With Rage, Link and Superman would face one another in a NoDQ CAW Championship match. The two gave one another their all and refused to deliver any half measures, which saw Link defeat Superman for the Championship after a Duo ZDT.

At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 6, Superman and the Joker would face one another in a Trip To Oblivion Match. The Joker, clearly realising he was at a disadvantage, enlisted the help of three hired guns- Han Zo Mon, Behemoth and Ming Chee- to attack Superman, but Superman overcame all three of them before delivering the Joker's finishing move against him- giving Superman the figurative last laugh as he delivered a literal Last Laugh, driving the Joker through the floor and into Oblivion. At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 7, Superman and Batman would face one another once more. The two pulled out all the stops in an incredible encounter that would see Superman pick up the victory. At Title Haunt, Superman and Link would defend the NoDQ CAW Tag Team Championship against the Serial Killers II. Freddy Krueger and Michael Myers would prove to be a well-oiled machine during the match, eliminating Link from the equation by putting him through a ringside commentary table before delivering a series of double-team attacks to Superman, with Myers pinning Superman to win the match and the Championship for his team.

At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 8, Superman would save Link from an assault at the hands of Luigi and Captain Jack Sparrow. Jason Voorhees would stand atop the entrance ramp, watching with interest as this unfolded. At Wreckless Warzone, Superman would compete for Team Link. Superman would enter a Fatal Four Way Match also featuring Frankenstein, Jason Voorhees and Luigi. Given Team Jason had two men in the match- Frankenstein and Jason- Superman found himself in a difficult situation, however managed to persevere and forced Jason to submit to the Super Sharpshooter, earning 3 desperately needed points for Team Link. After the main event, Superman would join team members Link, Spider-Man and Batman in celebrating Team Link's victory at the event.

At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 11, Superman was scheduled to enter a Fatal Four Way Match also featuring Luigi, the Hulk and Frankenstein. Luigi would be attacked by Link before the match, removing him from the contest and turning it into a Triple Threat Match. Initially, Frankenstein and the Hulk showed no interest in Superman, preferring to test one another's strength. Eventually, Superman would force the others to take note of him by showing them just what he was capable of. Frankenstein would put Superman through a ringside commentary table with a Monster Bomb but the Hulk would go on to win the match via count-out when both of his opponents were left at ringside. At NoDQ CAW's Main Event 12, Superman and Link were scheduled to face Luigi and Captain Jack Sparrow in a Tag Team Match, but Link was late to arrive to the arena, turning the contest into a Handicap Match. Fortunately, Link would arrive mid-way through the match and rescue Superman and give him the strength to win the match, forcing Sparrow to submit to the Super Sharpshooter. At Holiday Havoc, Superman would take part in a Fatal Four Way Hell In A Cell Match for the NoDQ CAW Championship also featuring the Hulk, Frankenstein and Sparrow. The match was incredibly close but Sparrow would retain his Championship after pinning Superman after Frankenstein and the Hulk gave Superman a double powerbomb through the roof of the Cell.

At The Road to Deadly Sin 1, Superman would once again face the Hulk and Frankenstein in a Triple Threat Match, this time in a Steel Cage Match to determine the #1 Contender to the NoDQ CAW Championship. Superman was once again largely ignored by the other competitors but when he attempted to escape the cage, the two turned their full attention to him. Despite this, Superman would fight back against the two monsters and lay them out with a series of finishing moves before escaping the cage to win the match. At Deadly Sin 2007, Superman would face Captain Jack Sparrow for the NoDQ CAW Championship. The two took one another to the limit but it would be an S-5 that sealed victory for Superman, netting him his fifth NoDQ CAW Championship.

At The Road to Date With Destiny 1, Sparrow would have his rematch Superman's NoDQ CAW Championship in a Hardcore Match. The two once again pulled out all the stops with Superman winning the match thanks to a Super Sharpshooter. After the match, Luigi made his way to the ring to stare down Superman before leaving. At The Road to Date With Destiny 5, Superman would face Michael Myers. Superman would win the match following a Super STO but would be attacked by the Hulk after the match. Luigi would attempt to stop the Hulk's assault but the Jade Giant would turn his anger to Luigi instead. Luigi would defeat the Hulk at The Road to Date With Destiny 8 and, after the match, Superman would get a measure of revenge against the Hulk with an S-5. At Date With Destiny 2007, Luigi would challenge Superman for the NoDQ CAW Championship. The two showed no backing down against one another and the match could have gone either way, but a Plumber's Screwdriver from Luigi sealed the victory for the challenger.

### Season 9

Superman would enter the 2007 NoDQ CAW Cup. Superman's first round opponent would be James Bond. Bond proved a tough challenge for Superman but a running powerbomb secured Superman's place in the second round. Superman's next opponent was his old foe the Terminator. The Terminator would prove an even more difficult foe than Bond did but a bridging German suplex would give Superman passage into the next round of the tournament. In the semifinal round, Superman faced rising star Skeletor. Though Skeletor had been impressive in the tournament thusfar, he was unable to stop Superman's momentum and Superman would force Skeletor to submit to the Super Sharpshooter. In the final match of the tournament, Superman faced Luigi and Captain Jack Sparrow in a Hardcore Match for the NoDQ CAW Championship. The match was one of the longest in NoDQ CAW history, as well as one of the most evenly fought by all three men. In the end, a Razor's Edge from Luigi to Sparrow would collide with Superman and send the Man of Steel crashing out of the ring as Luigi pinned Sparrow to win the match and retain his Championship.

At Bragging Rights, Superman would face Freddy Krueger for an opportunity to enter the Match From Hell in the main event. Superman and Freddy faced one another in an Escape the Harbour Match. Freddy proved a tough opponent for Superman, but would be tossed from the upper ledge to the ground, allowing Superman to escape the harbour. In the Fatal Four Way Match Match From Hell main event Hell In A Cell Match, Superman would face Jason Voorhees, the Joker and Link. Superman would pin the Joker following an S-5 to win the match, becoming the victor of what currently stands as NoDQ CAW's final match.

## Real World History

Superman is one of DC Comics' most beloved hero characters and is considered to be the first superhero in fiction. Superman's powers in the comics and most tie-in media include flight, super-strength, invulnerability, heat vision, X-ray vision, super speed and ice-breath, as well as the ability to survive in the vacuum of space. These powers and others have variously been used in all manner of Superman comics, television series, movies and video games over the decades since his debut. Writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster created the character and, over the course of five years, tried repeatedly to see him published to no avail, before DC bought the rights to the character. Superman is almost always portrayed as kind and honest and lives his life by traditional values, but will never back down from having to defend those unable to defend themselves.

Some alternate portrayals of Superman have him as a more authoritarian figure- for example NetherRealm Studios' *Injustice* video games paint Superman as a dictator who tries to rule the world with an iron fist as part of his Regime, believing he is justified in creating order through power if it means preventing supervillains such as the Joker from hurting people. His opposite number in the series, Batman, argues that Superman instead creates order through fear and takes away the freedom of those under him. That said, this is an extreme version of Superman and not at all like his main DC Universe counterpart (who he comes into conflict with in the first game, ultimately losing to the heroic Superman in combat).

## In-ring Style and Personality

Superman is a versatile in-ring performer. His arsenal of moves allow him to formulate a strategy against any opponent. Against larger opponents, moves like the Speeding Bullet still allow him an advantage, whereas the Super STO is generally effective against smaller foes. Superman's S-5 is his ultimate finishing move and is capable of putting away most opponents. Superman similarly tailors the rest of his offence in the ring.

As a babyface, Superman fights cleanly and isn't afraid of any challenge. As a heel, Superman was more willing to resort to dirty tactics and picking fights with opponents much weaker than him. That said, at no point in NoDQ CAW does Superman ever resort to using his super-powers as even as a heel he has enough pride to make sure he wins matches fairly, if not cleanly- if Superman were to use his super-powers, it would prove nothing against a non-powered foe.
