Buck Dresden

Buckley is at peak physical condition.  He doesn't have the type of presense akin to a body builder, rather a man who has worked.  He has broud shoulders and a stout frame.  He keeps his black hair closely cropped and his face sports a Wyatt Earp level mustache.  We're talking a game changing epic mustache.  He has blue eyes and a generally soft and happy demeanor which is in stark contrast to his intimidating appearance.

Buck wears a pair of faded blue jeans of varying levels of wear from years of use.  Generally, at least one knee will be exposed through the old fashioned way of having been worn to that degree to tear.  Underneath he has kneepads on, but of course they are unseen through the jeans aside from the holes.  He wrestles in cowboy boots that are generally black and his jeans are never tucked in under them.  He has no shirt on underneath but has black fingerless gloves on in homage to Diamond Del Carver.  He keeps a MASSIVE belt buckle on with a stylized World Tag Team Championship face plate on it, only with the silhouette of a man riding a bucking horse in the center over the globe.

He comes to the ring wearing a black leather Bad Ass Brotherhood biker vest with the BAB Skull on the back in grey and white and on the front, a patch with his name "Big Buck", underneath which is another patch which says "OBA", standing for "Original Bad Ass".  He also has a black leather cowboy hat on with a smaller BAB Skull patch on the front.

Outside of the ring, Buck wears the black cowboy hat and vest as often as humanly possible.  He also wears the jeans.  He also wears the boots.  Oddly enough, he doesn't wear the gloves.

Buck is an extremely confident and kind hearted young man.  He maintains happiness, even when obviously and thoroughly frustrated.  He is extremely smart, and for whatever reason rarely shows his intense intellect off, generally allowing himself to be the comedy relief in any situation he is placed in.  He is highly chivalrous, and struggles to shake loose the conservative manners and beliefs he had grown up with all of this life.  He works hard, he trains hard, and tries to make the best out of any situation.  He treats fighting and wrestling the way he did his championship rodeo days, as an act of manhood that he can convey his dominance over.  He likes to make references to "going heel" one day, though with very, very little malice behind it.

At an early age, Buck was put to work on the family farm in Hazard.  This was where he learned the ideal of a fair days wage for a fair days work.  The work was hard, the days were long, and the rewards were slim.  It was in his hometown that he first came to love the art of fighting for honor while participating in unsanctioned bare-knuckle boxing matches.  Buck worked for his family until his two younger brothers became old enough to take his place on the farm.  Then, with his father's blessing, he moved to El Paso, Texas to pursue another love of his: professional rodeo.

While never becoming a major star, Buck managed to carve a name for himself, winning two golden PBR belt buckles (one in Austin, TX and one in Cheyenne, WY).  His career was cut short when he was thrown from an especially nasty bull and trampled in Norman, Oklahoma.  Finding himself going broke and unable (or perhaps unwilling) to continue his rodeo career, he began to train to become a boxer, heralding back to his days of bare knuckle fighting.  Soon, however, his charisma and his inherent athletic ability caught the eye of a local wrestling promoter, who sought to get Buck to become a professional wrestler.  Loving the characters of the 1980s and 1990s, Buck took to trying to bring as much of himself to the character of a stereotypical cowboy until the character and Buck would simply be one in the same.  After a year of training, he found the promoter had packed up shop and declared bankruptcy.  Without anywhere to go and essentially homeless, he decided to panhandle and thumb his way West, where he was sure he could either find work as a ranch hand or possibly even kick up his rodeo career in some fashion again, or maybe a Western professional wrestling promotion.

After two months of travelling on the road and walking through the United States with no roof over his head and just enough money to feed and clean himself, Buck wound up in Reno, Nevada.  It was there that he first heard of a wrestling promotion which had worldwide acclaim that he had not known since his days of being a fan stopped so long ago: The SHOOT Project.  Combining his love of characters, his love of fighting, and his love of professional wrestling, Buck knew this was where he belonged.  Taking nearly two weeks, he finally made his way to Las Vegas and managed to secure himself a tryout on their debut return show of their most recent incarnation.

Now, Buck is one of the three man faction known as the Bad Ass Brotherhood, whose singular mindset is what their definition of what a man is and what a man does drives their union.  Buck's comic and kind personality meshes well with his ambitious and egotistical partner Charles Brandon Magnus, as well as their driven and intense third partner Jonas Coleman.  Together, they fight for what they believe in and what they see as right...and are not afraid to have a little bit of fun along the way!
