Background Information:
History:
Quite possibly the most annoyingly arrogant man on the planet, the brilliant and talented Bryan Storms was born Brian Sellers on April 23, 1981. His father, J. Arthur Sellers, is one of the most successful corporate attorneys in America, and pressured Bryan into joining the family firm from a young age. Brian abided with his father's wishes for much of his life, though when he went to attend college at Northwestern University, he discovered Chicago's underground wrestling scene. Storms, an accomplished athlete already, became enamored with the sport and spent much of his time in college purchasing and watching every wrestling tape he could find. During his final two years at NU, Bryan began training on his own by adapting some of the styles of his personal favorite performers into a hybrid of solid mat work, martial arts, and dazzling aerial manuevers. He disobeyed his father's wishes by not attending law school, opting for a wrestling career instead. In 2003, he met disenchanted former NFW wrestler Matt Johansson, and they began training together in New York City. At EPW Black Dawn in New York, Johansson and Storms debuted as Second Coming, a tag team modeled after their personal favorites, including the legendary combination of WildStar and Tsunami, and made an immediate impact by laying out inaugural tag team champions The Crimson Calling.
Appearance:
Very good looking, with impeccable jet black hair, green eyes, and a black goatee. In ring, wears a pair of long black tights with a silver and blue tinted lightning bolts running down each side and "STORMS" written in red on the butt. Usually wears a variety of black t-shirts to the ring, including the ever popular "Get Caught in the Eye of the Storm" t-shirt.
Titles Held:
None, but he's gonna change that soon.
Enterance:
[CUE UP: "Hells Bells" AC/DC. As the bells toll at the beginning of the song, a sound effect of the wind blowing plays in the background, slowly picking up as the bells continue to ring. When the first guitar chord is played, a lightning crash sound effect is heard and a wall of silver pyro goes off in front of the entranceway. When it subsides, out walks the arrogantly smiling Bryan Storms, who walks calmly to the ring before sliding in and absorbing the boos of the crowd.]

"You can come, you can try, but it won't make a difference. In the end, it just doesn't make a difference. In the end, you just don't measure up. What it all boils down to, buddy, is that you're just not good enough, and when it comes time to put up or shut up, I'LL be the one on top. So try me."
