Signature Moves: Superkick, Frogsplash
Finisher: Dual Shock (Lethal Combination); Modified Dual Shock (Uranage/Rock Bottom onto the knee before finishing with the faceplant)
Brief History: A lifelong fan of wrestling, McConnell debuted in 2001 in Rob Park's Extreme Wrestling Alliance under the name of 'Psycronic'. A kid looking to idolise some of his favorite wrestlers, he was up and coming but very green. The gimmick slowly mutated into "The PsYko Boy' William McConnell (PYB for short) and in 2002 McConnell would cement himself as a main event player, winning not only one world championship, but three! His first success was the EWA Championship which after a short reign would be followed with the second top belt in the company, the EWA World Championship. As the EWA World Champion, McConnell would unify the belts, becoming the companies first Undisputed Champion (and I'm not making that up, I've got the results archive to prove it
).
Since then, McConnell has evolved from the PYB persona. Along the way, he earned the nicknames The Star Attraction (Self given), The Extreme Element (given by another) and most aptly "The Answer" for his ability to change his game plan in the middle of the match. In his time in the EWA, he's won 7 World Championships and main evented the company's biggest show, Glory, 5 times. He is, without a doubt, a credit to the company's 10 year history.
Though he isn't giving up the EWA, he has realised that he can't expect the best to always come to him for a challenge and has decided to look elsewhere to get his feet wet. Coming upon Full Contact Wrestling, one can only wonder if William McConnell can bring the same intensity to the company as he once did to the EWA..

Gimmick: Cocky, and rightfully so, McConnell's gimmick is a simple one - Be the best match on any given card. As a fan favorite, he works to give the fans their every cent and as a heel he'll do everything to pad his "Star Attraction" moniker. He can go high risk if he needs to and he can mat wrestle with the best of them, often employing a combination of both styles to compliment each other. Always sarcastic and willing to goof around (sometimes at someone else's expense), he's always looking to be a highlight of the show.
Strengths: An all around wrestler who can adapt to the situation
Weaknesses: Can lose focus in frustration and slip up
