Background Information:
Marcus started out his career as an arrogant heel who claimed to be everyone's role model, especially for the children, but fans could tell he was never sincere. He first appeared in MHW, then made a brief appearance in CSWA, then later signed with NthWA,the league where his careeer truly started to take off.
Along the way, he introduced his new "fan-club president," Tiffany, who appeared on the surface to be a ditzy blonde, but underneath it was clear she was a very clever woman. Marcus preferred to go solo for a while, until he was approached by Randy Cobb about membership in XTC. He was revealed to be a surprise tag team partner for Cobb in an NthWA match. During his NthWA tenure, Marcus battled for the North American and World titles but came up short, and he experienced some success in a tag team with "Graffiti King" John Saxton.
But over time, Marcus became disenchanted with XTC, and wound up joining Apocalypse and Kevin Powers in splintering away from the group. During this time, he rose to become the NthWA North American champion, but shortly after winning the title, the league closed. When the NthWA closed, Marcus signed with WWL, but his tenure was brief as he lost interest in wrestling and took a leave of absence.
When the NthWA opened once again, Marcus sought to turn a new leaf with the fans and change his ways. What might have been his biggest challenge at that time was revaling that Tiffany was really his wife, and what the impact of having his wife continue to accompany him to ringside will be. And for the next couple of months, he spent his time working to build up genuine trust from the fans, rather than the phony character he brought for previously.
Another NthWA competitor, Eric Edwards, decided to try to take advantage of this, and spread rumors that Marcus was working for Takeover Enterprises. However, during a match between Marcus Johnson and J.T. Savage, Edwards revealed that this was a ruse, and he and his cohorts, Fast Lane, attacked both men and laid out Marcus. But a couple weeks later, Marcus returned, revealing that he had joined up with commissioner Robert Drake and several wrestlers to combat Team Phenom. This had been the result of Tiffany talking to Drake, convincing the commissioner that Marcus was sincere, this time, in that he wanted to work for the better of the NthWA
When the NthWA merged with EWI to form GXW, Marcus continued his battles against Team Phenom, and also found a new arch rival in Cole Steele. As these rivalries continued, Marcus was suddenly thrust into an impromptu match against GXW Unified World Champion "Good God" Kevin Powers, a match Marcus won.
His title reign saw him beseiged by Team Phenom and Cole Steele, and he eventually lost the title to "The Ego Buster" Dan Ryan. Marcus expressed dissatifaction over how his title reign went and also seemed displeased with the actions of GXW co-owner Chad Dupree. This, along with the fact his wife, Tiffany, became pregnant, eventually led to him departing GXW on a leave of absence. The question now is: Will The Hero ever return to GXW?
