WHAT BRINGS YOU TO UPRISING?
Ace is always looking for competition, Ace desires a challenge even with his many years and experiences. He also wants to spread that message of peace, love and wrestling and really do as much as he can to influence the new generation and keep up with them, plus he's always got something to prove. He doesn't like traveling but he loves wrestling, he desires to be a master of it. Although he has a generally good reputation, his childhood bully J.T. Douglas is now a sportswriter and podcaster who revels in every chance he gets to blow the wind of Ace's sails.
Bio-
Born on March 16 1983 Ace Ian Rabinovitch is a Texan Jewish American. His name is very fitting as he was a child prodigy, he has an IQ of 190 and despite being undersized he also has athletic acumen. His two dreams have been to be an astronaut and be a wrestler the later working out. In 1987 he began doing gymnastics and playing soccer. In 1988 he began doing martial arts specifically taekwondo and amateur wrestling in 1989, he became a black belt at 10 years old in 1993 and began backyard wrestling and became a local star. At 13 he used his Bar Mitzvah money to pay for his starting tuition to begin his training in pro wrestling at Texas Fight Zone wrestling school. In 1994 he graduated high school and began studying astronomy at University of Texas in Austin Texas while there he was an assistant professor but he got let go and dropped out in 1999 when he was caught selling marijuana and magic mushrooms to studentsOn his 15th birthday he impressed the very strict state athletic commission to license him as a pro wrestler three years under the legal age due to his aptitude and 13 days later on March 29 1998 he made his official pro debut. He began wrestling internationally in 2004 at 21 years old and wrestled in japan for 3 years before becoming a mainstream star. In 2014 he embarked on a spiritual journey going to an ayasaucha retreat in Peru, this has helped him tremendously since he dealt with confidence issues his entire career. Since 2010 he has become involved in surfing and yoga, adding the later to his in ring work to enhance his already wizardly submission game

PERSONALITY OVERVIEW:
Ace craves discipline as an athlete and competitor, he is very hard-nosed and driven, he's intense and views pro wrestling just like he views martial arts as a spiritual and artistic endeavor but while he's very disciplined and can even come off as a bit of a douchebag about his views as he is a young veteran of the business mixed with his spiritual enlightenment side that is not religious and he's casual and
laissez faire socially about it usually, but inside the ring he's very gritty as a veteran, he can be intense.
But as much as he is disciplined as an athlete and competitor, he's the opposite out of the ring, more of a free spirit even to his detriment,
he's anti-authoritarian, he believes some laws do require civil disobedience such as his pro marijuana stance. He's very particular about not being boxed in as something, not being labeled.
this Spotify playlist includes songs, previous entrance themes and just describe him/fit him perfectly
plus these songs:
STRENGTHS:
catch wrestling/ chain wrestling wizard- a man of a billion holds. experience in amateur wrestling and different catch wrestling styles
striking- very educated feet, a very dangerous striker
resilience/durability- nothing superhuman just a good mix of cardio and tenacity
experience
WEAKNESSES:
size
lack of killer instinct- he's improved a bit with this through his spiritual journey but he's still too nice. He will only be really a ruthless competitor against the most evil of heels and those he feels deserve it
high risk- low reward: although he wrestles a much more careful and technical style of high-flying/super junior wrestling there's still risks involved when you fly
more prone to injury- now given his age of nearly 40 plus close to 25 years of taking crazy risks, he is more prone to injury, he's not made of glass but it is noticeable now.
Since he does a very calculated version of high-flying, if an opponent is faster or even able to cheat a bit and crotch him when he goes for his high-flying stuff that can happen too.
WHY THEY'D BE CHEERED: pure pro wrestling fans love Ace, he's an indy darling for sure, a dynamic veteran in the ring and even casual fans love him because he does stuff that makes them jump out of their seat. Also modern hippie audiences, anywhere progressive socially/politically he will also be loved.
WHY THEY'D BE BOOED:
He can be cocky and a bit of bully to less experienced wrestlers, especially fellow cruiserweights because he holds them to a strict high caliber.
He's been around long enough to know little tricks to cheat a bit- not letting go of a rope break until just before 5, choking, sneak attacks.
Not the best influence and not everyone will agree with his lifestyle
good looks and knows it- he cleans up pretty well and is charming to ladies, this can piss guys off.
REASONS TO COMPETE:
- STEPPING STONE: He used to never view it as this, didn't desire to become famous or seek fortune but in recent years he does use pro wrestling to promote his spiritual philosophies, it's not religious but he does give off a wannabe-shaman vibe
- PASSION: All your character has ever wanted to do is wrestle. It's in their blood; their DNA. They eat, breathe and live this sport and for them it's a way of life.
ATTITUDE TOWARDS TEAMWORK:
- TOTAL TEAM PLAYER: Your character will team with anyone, even if they don't share a common interest or goal. Appreciates the benefits of friends and allies.
TENDENCY TO CHEAT:
Only against the dastardliest of characters
THEME SONG: 'Eye In The Sky' by The Alan Parsons Project
WRESTLING EXPERIENCE:
Made his pro debut on March 29th 1998, licensed pro legally on his 15th birthday March 16 1998.
WRESTLING STYLE: Dynamic super junior/ technical cruiserweight
- THE PURIST: Relies on hard-hitting, old-school brawling. Takes the throwback traditional wrestling style and makes it relevant once again.
- THE TECHNICIAN: Relies on a catch-as-catch-can style of wrestling, featuring a variety of suplexes, submission holds and ground-based wrestling.
- THE LUCHA: Relies on superb speed and agility, as well as a chain wrestling form of free fighting that wows the audience and bamboozles their opponent. Impressive displays of acrobatics render the need for power and force obsolete.
- THE AERIALIST: Relies on speed and aerial prowess to overwhelm their foes. What they lack in size and brute strength, they make up for in agility and accuracy.
- THE STRONG STYLIST: Relies on hard-hitting (often stiff) moves and sharp strikes. Whether it's punches, chops, kicks, throws or submission holds, this fighter wants to hit hard, hit fast and hurt their foes.
- THE ALL-ROUNDER: Combines a variety of styles from different disciplines to disable and defeat their opponent.

MATCH TENDENCIES: It is uncommon for Sky to be able to really man-handle and overpower his opponents so he sticks to a three style pattern-
catch wrestling wizardry-he will literally wrestle circles around you , especially if you have less in ring experience than him, he will test your fundamentals.
striking- known for his educated feet, fighting him in hand to hand combat is like facing off with a power ranger
highflying- not a Jeff Hardy, Darby Allin style, very impeccable .
BACKSTAGE TENDENCIES: before a match he'll be stretching, casually, bumping himself against walls( to prepare for bumping in the ring) not in an extreme dangerous way though. He gives the most attention to camera people and other staff that usually are ignored, always trying to be inclusive and make them feel welcome. He can handle a bit of razzing and that happens playfully between some wrestlers he's friends with but he is quick to stand up for himself and is conditioned to be " big in word and big in action" as he has developed as being an undersized Texan, he's the first to fight a bully. He'll smoke weed occasionally from a vape if they are in places where it's legal and although people may not believe him it is mostly for health reasons due to the wear and tear of being a 20 + year wrestler.
FIGHT-ENDING STYLE:
- OUT-WRESTLING: Beats the opponent using their preferred wrestling style.
- CEREBRAL: Overcomes the opposition through intelligence, ingenuity and superior ring psychology.
- SUPERIOR STAMINA: Uses their superb conditioning to wait for the opponent to tire, before ending the fight on their terms.
IN-RING STRENGTHS:
- Strength: technical wizard- catch wrestling sequences , he can only be bested by those with more in ring experience
- Strength: cardio- what gets mistaken a lot for impressive compliments on commentary as resilience or durability really is just simple cardio, it will take a lot to get him huffing and puffing out of breath and sweating.
- Strength: experience
IN-RING WEAKNESSES:
- Weakness: size, he's 5'8 and 165 lbs , 185 pounds heaviest either way against a super heavyweight size wrestler regardless of if they lack experience they will over power him easily.
- although very unpredictable and exciting to fans and the commentators, his usual style is pretty formulaic and if steps to that formula are
interrupted or evaded he will be taken down
- Weakness: He's gotten better at being more ruthless due to his spiritual rebirth but he still has the tendency to " choke" during big moments, if he's facing an outright very evil person he can turn up that dial and be just as extreme but if it's a fellow babyface type wrestler, they may be tougher than him.
