## Appearance

Apex was a mountain of a man, easily seven feet tall, and broad-shouldered. He was shaved bald with a thick-jawed face and deep-set eyes. He had a purple tongue. He wore heavy-looking work trousers and boots and a belt made of steel chains. When he walked, he often caused the floor to buckle. Even his bollocks were hard with muscle.

## Biography

### Sunday Night Lightning

Apex was the City British Champion, and would be so for 1000 days if he kept the title until the Colossal Tussle. Before a match at Sunday Night Lightning, The Denimatrix attempted to trash talk him but he crushed her microphone and hit her in the nose, sending her crashing onto the mat. This was halted by a timid referee.

His real match was against Tony the Milkman. During the match, Apex gave Tony two busted knees, two busted fingers and a minor skull fracture. While he was squeezing Tony's skull, Kid Flippz arrived on a skateboard and landed on Apex's hands, breaking some of his fingers. Apex tossed Kid away, then pinned Tony for the three count and won the match. However, Apex attacked Tony after the bell. Kid crowd surfed into the back of his head with a double drop kick, and the father-son duo beat him to the ground. This was interrupted by QC. (*Welcome To City British Wrestling*)

The next week, Apex had a match against Kid Flippz, for which he appeared carrying a dead grizzly bear and ate its heart. As he lifted Kid off the ground the boy tried to kick him in the bollocks, but they were too dense and muscular. Just as Apex was about to drop Kid on his head, The Denimatrix arrived on a giant lorry full of denim clothes and covered the ring in a sea of soft denim. The match ended without a clear winner. (*The Milkman's Retirement*)

After The Denimatrix and Mr Donovan had mangled each other sufficiently in their match against each other a couple of weeks later, he made his way down the ramp, condensing a pile of steel into a small ball. He lifted Denim and used his Survival of the Fittest move to break her spine. He said she would never be City British Wrestling Champion and repeated the move. She tried to stab one of her now severed stilettos into his achilles heel, but she was too weak and he kicked her unconscious. He celebrated, truimphant. (*Kid Flippz Vs The Milkman*)

### The Colossal Tussle

Two wooly mammoths pulled **Apex** into the arena on a chariot for his match against The Denimatrix to retain the City British Championship at the Colossal Tussle. He whipped them to make them trumpet into the air, then stalked down the ramp with his belt and jumped into the ring.

Over the course of the match, he crushed her with his foot for some time until she escaped via extreme dribbling. She blinded him twice during the match, once by gashing his eyes with her zippers and the other by smearing a mixture of bodily fluids and stiletto bits in his eyes to escape his finisher. When she tried to whip him, the whip broke into many whip teeth and these became embedded in the skins of both wrestlers. She won after smashing his face on her knee three times and pinning him when he collapsed. (*The Colossal Tussle*)
