## Professional wrestling career

### **Training and Early Career at Robbie Scott's Gym**

Warrington began training at the age of 16 in `Taekwon-do and kickboxing. When Warrington turned 21 he started pro wrestling training under the tutelage of his uncle ***Alex Stryder***. later that year Warrington appeared on an RSG special event against ***TJ Agata*** under the name Prince Strider, wearing an attire reminiscent to Alex Stryder's early days. Warrington's Prince gimmick began to take influences from the character *Bruce Leeroy* from the 1985 movie The Last Dragon, along with 80's Funk and R&B artists such as *Prince*, *Michael Jackson,* and *Bobby Brown*. Warrington would eventually form a tag team with ***KIOSHIMA*** called ***DUAL CRISIS*** and go on to become 1 time FWC Tag Team Champions after beating fellow RSG members ***JP Masters*** and ***Joshua Phoenix***.

### **Transition to NAHMO**

During a FWC Tour in Melbourne Warrington faced off against ***Bryan Amir***. During the match Warrington uncharacteristically broke character and began to try and match Amir's fluid style. The match ended with Amir hitting his AMIRacle Knee and getting the win. After the match Warrington and Amir shook hands with Warrington leaving with applause from the crowd. The following show Warrington continued to display the same uncharacteristic persona in a tag match with partner ***KIOSHIMA.*** Towards the end of the match, Warrington walked out on ***KIOSHIMA*** and later explained in an interview later that he needed to find his fire. Warrington left pro wrestling and stayed in Thailand training at Sityodtong gym, and later Core Combat in Chiang Mai. After months of training Warrington re-debuted on FWC against ***Isamu Hideyoshi*** at the request of Alex Stryder with a new look using the name NAHMO.

### **CRISIS**

After the closure of Robbie Scott's Gym and an injury that sidelined him for a few months Warrington became the manager of Alex Stryder's wrestling nightclub CRISIS in the Roppongi district of Tokyo as a way to "keep him occupied" whilst recovering. The nightclub thrived under Warrington's management but slowly became subject to controversy and scrutiny. After an altercation backstage with KIOSHIMA, an attack on Bryan Amir and the growing controversy of Warrington's actions, he would garner the nickname *Demon Of Roppongi*. Warrington challenged Bryan Amir to a match which he would lose but once again attack Amir with the aid of JP Masters, ***Jay Williams*** and Joshua Phoenix. The four would then announce themselves as ***HYBRID IV***, a play on all four wrestlers background in shoot style wrestling. "The new leaders of the shoot style movement"

### **Wrestling Style and 'The Violent Tactician' Persona**

Warrington is known by his nickname "The Violent Tactician" in reference to his blended style consisting of his eclectic kickboxing skills, often combined with bending his opponents fingers and hyper-extending their limbs. His affinity to limb target in a unique manner using both strikes and joint manipulation solidified the nickname. Warrington credits Barry Scott's training for his persona stating that Scott inspired and perfected his wrestling style by implementing submission grappling into his skill set. H.P Lovecraft's short stories, Blade, Mortal Kombat, and various other media are cited as the foundation of his wrestling persona. Warrington's ring attire is inspired by the clothes worn by sport combat practitioners from Indian cultural sphere such as Lethwei, Yaw - Yan, Muay Thai and Pradal Serey.
