Mark Macias

**Marcus Perry Macias** (born October 8, 1980) is an American professional wrestler currently signed to Render Wrestling, where he performs on the Polaris brand under the ring name **Mark Macias**. He is currently the on-screen general manager of the show.

## **Early Life**

Mark Macias was born on October 8, 1980 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Mark has been quoted in saying that he didn’t have a good relationship with his father growing up, but he had a great relationship with his mother. At school he enjoyed doing Drama and Performing Arts the most and would later pursue acting as a career.

Growing up in New Orleans, he would be involved with Mardi Gras every year.

In his early years he’d develop a love for Rock music, more specifically old Rock music. His favourite artists include Queen, The Beatles, Elton John & Billy Joel. Despite Mark only being 11 years old, the death of Freddie Mercury deeply affected him. He aimed to always have the loudest personality in the room just like Freddie was. This annoyed a lot of his co-workers but he didn’t care.

## **Acting Career**

Mark would make his on screen debut at the age of 10 as a child actor. He would be involved as an extra in various other projects growing up until he got his big break in a hollywood movie. The movie failed in the box office and ever since he’s failed to gain any actual acting work. Macias would star in a movie alongside former Render Wrestling wrestler Chris Roberts.

Whilst Macias made the transition to become a wrestler full time, he postponed his acting career. He’d make a few appearances but on the whole he’d take a break from making movies.

When Render Wrestling was revived, fans of the product started watching his failed movies. “Let It Bee” become a cult classic and ironic masterpiece amongst movie fans. Mark Macias’ filmography has suddenly become popular which in turn, made the wrestling show he works for also grow in popularity. Mark has sworn that he’ll still put his wrestling career first despite being rumoured that he’ll become the next James Bond.

He currently hosts a late night talk show called “The Early Early Late Show With Mark Macias” which can explain his transition into a general manager in Render Wrestling.

## **Professional Wrestling Career**

### **Independent Circuit (2018)**

In late 2017, Mark Macias starred in a straight to DVD movie where he played the role of a wrestler. For the movie he had to be slightly trained in wrestling. His coach for the film trained him and Mark Macias fell in love with it. In early 2018 it was announced that he would become a part time professional wrestler. No one noticed or cared because no one knew him but Mark made the announcement. He made his debut on January 24, 2018 in a losing effort against Chase Adams. He would wrestle a couple of times a month, slowly improving as his love for the sport grew.

When Tony Mustang began signing wrestlers for Render Wrestling it was reported that Mark Macias begged The Drip God until he agreed to sign the rookie.

### **Render Wrestling (2018-2019)**

#### **Render Wrestling debut & Team Sexy (2018-2019)**

Upon being signed to Render Wrestling, he was paired with another wrestler with slightly more experience. Tony put them together due to Mark being rubbish in the ring due to him not even having a year’s worth of wrestling under his belt. He caused a riot backstage as he didn’t want to be overshadowed on his debut, so Tony Mustang allowed Mark to change this guy’s gimmick. Macias turned him into his stunt double, Mark Gracias. The pair would aim for success despite Macias not viewing Gracias as his equal.

On the debut volume of Render Wrestling, the newly named Team Sexy (Macias & Gracias) would go against The Cross (Jake Cross & Denis Ryley) for the vacant tag team championships. The Marks put up a strong battle before ultimately losing their chance to become the first ever champions. On the volume after, Mark Gracias faced Chris Roberts with Macias watching from ringside. Throughout the match Macias would try to interfere. Mark Gracias managed to roll up Chris Roberts to gain the win after Macias tried to distract him with the turnbuckle. Later in the show, King Travis Carter approached Mark Gracias trying to convince him to become his tag partner and to ditch Macias. Gracias refused. On Volume 3 Mark Macias would lose to Dan Gunshot.

On Volume 4, Macias & Gracias would form a short lived partnership with Michael Skyler. Skyler’s current whereabouts are unkown. Triple M would make their debut with a loss to The Hellhounds (Chris Roberts & Valor) and their manager Mr Cromwell. Originally this meant that The Hellhounds earned themselves a tag team title opportunity at Troubleshoot but after one half of The Cross, Denis Ryley, attacked Macias & Gracias after their loss, Team Sexy were added into the match making it a triple threat. On Volume 5 Mark Gracias beat The Cross’ mascot, Jason Gates. After the match Valor attacked Gracias, laying him out with a chokeslam. Denis Ryley beat up Chris Roberts on the stage but he couldn’t get the best of Valor, who also attacked him in retaliation. After Jason Gates distracted Valor, saying he was going to spoil popular film Avengers: Endgame, Denis Ryley took advantage and laid him out. After all of this carnage, Jason Gates was attacked by his own friend Denis Ryley.

On Volume 6, Mark Macias defeated Hellhounds member Chris Roberts. This victory arguably made them officially in the triple threat tag match. During Render Wrestling’s inaugural pay-per-view event Troubleshoot, Macias & Gracias & The Hellhounds were defeated by The Cross who retained their titles by pinning both Mark Gracias & Chris Roberts at the same time.

Sometime before Volume 7, Mark Macias created a “Vote Macias” campaign in order for him to win an Oscar award for acting. Unfortunately this never went anywhere because after defeating Lucky Rockzz, Render Wrestling postponed all future shows until further notice.

## **Personal Life**

Mark Macias is married to Melissa Macias. They’ve been married since 2019 and she is the half-sister of Kace Caliban. Mark and Kace don’t have the best relationship but they try to get along at family events, however hard that may be.

Mark’s best friends are Tony Mustang and Chris Roberts who he met from working in Render Wrestling.

Macias is a fan of a couple of sports teams. In Football he supports the New Orleans’ Saints. In Soccer he supports English team Leeds United due to him liking the club during a UK live event tour.

Mark moved to Hollywood when he was 24 in hopes to elevate his floundering acting career.
