Chris Ross

**Chris Ross** is a fictional Scottish professional wrestler. He is currently signed to Insane Championship Wrestling, where he is a former ICW Zero-G Champion. He also competes part-time for Reaction Room Wrasslin' (RRW), where he was the inaugural Reaction Room Champion.

## Professional wrestling career

### **Independent circuit (2011-2014)**

Ross made his in-ring debut in 2011, wrestling throughout the United Kingdom mainly at small independent shows. However, the wear-and-tear and financial instability caused Ross to eventually decide to retire from the ring in 2014.

### **Insane Championship Wrestling (2016–present)**

Ross debuted for the Glasgow promotion in 2016 after coming out of retirement due to his growing popularity as an Internet Wrestling Community personality., He debuted as a babyface due to his infectious energy and personality, but would eventually turn heel and start sporting his "Heel the World" t-shirts in the ring. This heel turn and joining forces with Nat Mas as his valet would bring Chris to the ICW Zero-G Championship by defeating Lionheart. Ross held the belt for several months before losing it in a 6 Man Stairway to Heaven Match to Kenny Williams on 20 November at *Fear & Loathing IX*. He then would go on to win the Square Go! briefcase in early 2018, attempting to cash it in on several occasions on ICW World Heavyweight Champion, BT Gunn, but was foiled each time. He would then lose the briefcase to Stevie Boy.

### **Reaction Room Wrasslin' (RRW) (2018–present)**

> "*It’s him! The person that you HATE! From Glasgow, Scotland, the King of Cringe Chris Ross made his start on the Internet, developing his popularity through his YouTube channel Dead End Old where he famously held his “Boo Roman Reigns” sign up high at WrestleMania 32. Since then he’s developed more catchphrases than the Rock, whether it’s the Goldberg on a Pole match, Bray Wyatt and his Pizza Hut or Big Mark Calaway’s chips and cheese. Ross has an undeniable charisma and is indeed the BEST DANCER! His RRW talk segment ‘The Reaction Room’ with his valet Nat Mas is the stuff of legends, and with his unmistakable style and charisma, the RRW Champion is going to make his mark!*"

In the untelevised pilot episode of Reaction Room Wrasslin' on January 28, Ross competed in the main event match against The Lexbot and The Wolfman to crown the inaugural Reaction Room Champion, which Ross won. He would hold the title throughout the year until Episode 3 on July 14. He was meant to face the winner of the Reaction Room Wrasslin' Tournament, Tyler D., in a championship match. However, Tyler instead laid down for Chris and effectively joined forces with him. Intent on salvaging the main event, general manager Lexbot intervened and put himself in a title match with Ross, which The Lexbot won. Ross then appeared at the first RRW pay-per-view event *All Out*, where he teamed with D. in a tag team match against Lexbot's allies in the Sensational Woah-se Kerwolfbots, Greg Cherry and Jose Taboada, in a winning effort.

## Personal life

Ross also works as the manager of a bar in Glasgow. After working as an independent wrestler for several years and ultimately deciding to retire, he gained popularity as a wrestling personality through his YouTube series called *The Reaction Room* under the YouTube channel dead\_end\_old, where he and his partner NatMasKO would react to WWE shows and pay-per-views. This prompted him being contacted by independent wrestling promotions who wanted to book him, and Ross would return to the ring in 2016.
