When making his way to the ring Hughes will simply carry a plain white hand towel with him, a nod to one of his favourite wrestler of all time Curt Hennig.

Casual Attire

When Hughes isn't in the ring he will often be seen wearing an open collared dress shirt, a pair of dress trousers accompanied with a pair of black dress shoes.

Formal Attire

On special occasions Hughes will be seen wearing a finely tailored suit .

He usually wears a fitted black suit with a black shirt underneath. He never has his shirt buttoned to the top and never wears a tie.

Character Facts & Trademarks

There are only a handful of people that Hughes is wary of for whatever reason, be it their in ring ability or the fact that Hughes feels he cannot manipulate them.

Hughes will rarely, if ever, sincerely shake hands with his opponent. He believes shaking hands is the ultimate way of showing respect and due to the fact he respects barely anyone you will almost never see him shake anyone’s hand.

Hughes truly believes himself to be one of the greatest wrestlers of the modern era.

Hughes will only give interviews to Charlotte King if he has a choice. Whilst the reason for this is not currently known there have been rumours that it may be due to a torch that Hughes holds for Miss King.

Weaponry

Kendo Stick

Hughes has recently been seen using a Singapore cane/kendo stick/shinai as a weapon and usually makes his attacks under the cover of darkness by forcing the lighting crew to drop the lights as and when he sees an opportunity to attack.

Fire

Jonny Hughes has been seen to use fire, one of man's oldest weapons, in his recent violent encounters. So far he has spat a fireball at Jake Steele and set Jason Freeman on fire.

Entrance Descriptions



Short Version

‘Cult of Personality’ begins to play over the AlphaTron to a chorus of boos from the fans as Jonny Hughes steps out onto the stage and poses for the fans before heading down to the ring, he cockily strides his way down the entrance ramp smiling at fans and on occasion flashing a sly wink in the direction of a pretty lady. He slides into the ring and poses for the fans once more before removing his jacket and draping his towel over the turnbuckle as he awaits the start of the match.

PPV/Big Match Entrance

". . . And during the few moments that we have left, . . . We want to talk right down to earth in a language that everybody here can easily understand."

The murmuring of the assembled crowd is suddenly interrupted by one of Malcolm X’s famous quotes alerting the fans to the incoming presence of Jonny Hughes. The audience begin to boo as the opening drum beats echo in the hallowed ACW Arena as they blaze out of the AlphaTron, the lights of the AlphaTron flash in alternating colours in time with the music creating an impressive visual.

Look In My Eyyyyyessss. What Do You See? The Cult of Personality

The opening lyrics are immediately followed by the arrival of Jonny Hughes, something which displeases the fans in attendance as their boos increase in volume. Hughes opts to ignore the abuse and walks out to the edge of the ramp before posing for the fans. He then begins to cockily stride his way down the entrance ramp smiling at fans and on occasion flashing a sly wink in the direction of a pretty lady. He slides into the ring and poses for the fans once more before removing his jacket and draping his towel over the turnbuckle as he awaits the start of the match.

Character History



The Beginning

Jonny Hughes arrived in ACW under the name Jonny Omega and made a huge impact on the World Title scene in his first month. Tornado looked to have picked up a shock victory to start his first reign as World Champion but was foiled by Jonny Omega who turned match official Raymond Allen Fleming’s attention towards a replay that showed Hunter had his hand on the ropes, RAF had the match restarted and Hunter retained his title. This event started the Tornado/Omega rivalry that culminated in a 30 minute Iron Man match for the Entertainment Championship at Genocide and also started Jonny’s love affair with the Entertainment Title. Omega spent the next month making semi-regular appearances up until the Fallen Heroes rumble in which he was the tenth entrant, Omega gave a good account of himself until he was Filibuster’d over the top rope by The Senator and eliminated from the match and also from ACW competition for a while due to injury.

The Omerta Era

Jonny Omega made his return from injury during The Senator’s Retirement Tour. Senator had just fought hard to defeat Tornado on the June 12th Fallout broadcast when he was assaulted by a masked assailant, the assailant was revealed to be Jonny Omega, the godson of an associate of Tornado and was announced as part of Tornado’s new stable Omerta, with Fallout team The Goodfellas as muscle. Omega punctuated this announcement by locking Senator in the Anaconda Vice to send a message to ACW. Omega later changed his name to ‘The Sicilian Shooter’ Jonny Hughes, in homage to his Sicilian roots. The following week on Fallout Hughes teamed with Santiago Rivera to take on The Senator and Anthony Kalb in tag team action and shocked the world by forcing The Senator to tap out to the Anaconda Vice, following an accidental chair shot from Anthony Kalb. Unfortunately Omerta crumbled when leader Tornado left ACW to pursue other interests.

The Upper Echelon

The collapse of Omerta seemed to motivate Hughes and he started picking up a number of victories. Hughes got himself involved in the ACW World Title scene once again when he smashed then World Champion Latino in the face with his own title belt during a match with The Chef, after the match Chef and Hughes brutally attacked the World Champion to send a message out to the rest of ACW. Chef and Hughes later announced themselves as ‘The Upper Echelon’ and added Logan Locke to their ranks before spending the following shows involving themselves in the business of Latino and Atomic Kitsune. The Upper Echelon feud with AK and Latino ended at Heatwave 2006 when, to the shock of the entire ACW audience they joined forces forming a new stable lead by two of ACW’s finest.

Battle of the Jonnys

Shortly after Heatwave Jonny Hughes engaged in a feud with the Entertainment Champion Jonny Spade. The pair engaged in a rivalry that stemmed from Hughes’ jealousy and inherent disbelief that Jonny Spade was Entertainment Champion, Hughes was so confident in his ability to beat Spade that he was willing to risk his ACW career to get a title shot. Unfortunately for Hughes, but not for the fans, he lost the match and was forced to leave ACW.

The Return

Jonny Hughes made his return to ACW during the 2007 Lethal Lottery as the surprise partner of Jason Freeman. The duo went out in the first round of the tournament to the pairing of BK London and Thunderkiss but Hughes went on to win his return singles match against Davey Marvel. Hughes ended the month in a Battle Royal for the, yep you guessed it, Entertainment Championship. Hughes didn’t do much in the next month but ended the month wrestling the impressive Echo to a draw at Heatwave. The following month Hughes was eliminated from the Emperor of the Ring before forming an alliance with then Entertainment Champion Ricky Falcon the duo spent the month being cool and doing stuff before they were drafted into ACW’s greatest stable The Senatorial Stable.

Senatorial Stable

Hughes spent the next month picking up wins, having matches with Jason Freeman, being attacked by ACW World Champion Starkweather and feuding with long time adversary Dan White over who was better basically. The pair had a match that ended with a draw due to a double count out that spilled over into a brutal brawl. The pair then had another match at Samhain which again ended in a tie.

Destiny Fulfilled

November 2007 will be forever known as the month that Jonny Hughes fulfilled his destiny of becoming the Entertainment Champion after he defeated Andrew Williams to finally become champion. Hughes then spent the next month basking in his own brilliance and winning matches against Jason Freeman in singles action and Adrian Flamingo and Jon Taylor in tag team action. Hughes ended November on a high when he defeated XS3 in what some would call an upset at BEST. PPV. EVER.

Winter’s Discontent Hughes/Hunter vs. Starr/Zero

December marked the start of a feud between the teams of Hughes and Hunter and Andrew Starr and Jay Zero. Whilst the teams feuded Hughes and Starr engaged in a rivalry for the Entertainment Title. Andrew Starr managed to become the Number One contender for the aforementioned title in dubious circumstances. Hughes rounded off the month well, after victories over Silencio he and Hunter teamed together to defeat Starr and Zero at Winter’s Discontent and end 2007 on a high.

After The Break

ACW returned from its winter break on January 3rd and Hughes found that he was teaming with rival Andrew Starr to take on 2 of ACW’s most promising young talents and Libertines >_>, anyways Hughes and Starr won but Starr laid out Hughes with the Andrew Starr Lariat after the match to remind the champion of his intentions towards the title. The very same week Andrew Starr defeated Hughes cleanly in the ring, much to the shock of Hughes who decided to respond to Starr’s attack by laying out Starr with The Burden of Excellence. In the coming weeks the Starr/Hughes feud would become increasingly violent, Hughes hit Starr with a vicious running Ligerbomb into the guardrail one week and Starr responded the next week during his title match by deciding not to pin Hughes and win the title but instead to hit Hughes with an Ace Crusher onto a steel chair, crushing Hughes' larynx in the process. The feud went quiet for a while, given Hughes' injury, until Bloody Valentine when Hughes and Starr faced off in a title unification match for both the Entertainment and Lightheavyweight titles. Starr won the bout after reversing the Hughes Special into Dead On Impact and in turn became the first unified champion in history and in the end cost Hughes his best chance to date to write his name in the history of ACW.

Hughes vs. Sports Entertainment

After he lost his Entertainment Title it seemed like Jonny Hughes would be lost in ACW without a goal to aim for but Hughes saw differently and set his sights on the new ACW World Champion Thunderkiss by giving a shoot interview to PWI magazine, TK saw this and wasn't impressed to say the least and verbally assaulted Hughes the following week. But Hughes had an answer to this and worked alongside his mentor The Senator to brutally pick apart Thunderkiss the following week after their tag team match. This act forced Thunderkiss to challenge Hughes to a match he knew he wouldn’t be able to resist - a submission moves only match. Hughes eagerly accepted but was shocked when Durden entered himself into the match up as well, all due in part to a contract he was able to somehow mysteriously obtain. At Genocide, Hughes found out just how and why Nick was able to squirm his way into the match as it was revealed he standing beside TK the entire time. The two dismantled Hughes in the ring, and celebrated Durden’s entrance to the Entourage after the match.

Fallen Heroes and Buddy Siano

April was an unusual month for Jonny Hughes, mostly due to the surprise addition of Aiden Joseph (formerly Thunderkiss) to The Senatorial Stable. The addition of Joseph lead to an uncomfortable month for Hughes who wasn't sure how to react around his former rival. April was strange for another reason as Hughes found himself his first student in Buddy Siano, a man who is the Anti-Hughes if there ever was one. After taking on Siano as his student Hughes decided to take some time away from ACW television and go into some secret training for the Fallen Heroes rumble and bulked up in the process.

Hughes made his in-ring return at the Fallen Heroes Rumble, entering 13th, he stated his intent by immediately coming to the aid of his Stable-mate Thunder Train before going on to eliminate Trent Goodwin and then Alex Richmond in an incident which saw Hughes get eliminated at the same time. Hughes did not take kindly to this and immediately attacked Richmond by throwing him into the ring steps but before he was able to continue his attack he was separated from Richmond by match officials and sent to the back. Will Hughes seek further vengeance for his elimination or will he move onwards and seek another title in ACW?

Birth of a Dynasty

The end of May and the start of June brought around the rebirth of the ACW tag team division and The Senatorial Stable sought to capitalise by sending two teams into the tournament, one pairing saw former ACW World Champion Aiden Joseph team with his bodyguard Thunder Train and the other saw Hughes and Freeman team up. However, Hughes and Freeman were totally unaware of the situation and were pushed into a match against Nick Durden and Kai Virtanen, the Senatorial team lucked out and managed to pick up the win. After seeing their natural chemistry the pair decided to train together more and worked on some team manoeuvres but it was all in vain as the pair fell to the eventual tournament winners WhiteSnake. Hughes and Freeman didn't see this as the end of their team and stated their intentions, they plan to become Tag Team Champions and announced their name as The Dynasty. What does the future hold for this newly created team?

End of an Era and NUE beginnings

If turns out that nothing was in the future for The Dynasty as not long after the team was created it disbanded. Hughes was incensed after finding out his tag partner Jason Freeman was taking time out for a stubbed toe injury and decided to inform Freeman and the ACW faithful that The Dynasty was finished because Hughes could not afford to associate himself with weakness. After some time away from the screens Jonny Hughes returned as the mystery member of the New Upper Echelon and has seemingly left The Senatorial Stable, however no official statement on the matter has been released it is believed that Hughes' association with The SS is over.

The purge of ACW

September 4th 2008 was the day that Jonny Hughes announced to the world and the ACW roster that he declaring war on the members of the ACW roster who he deemed unworthy of their position in the company. It seems that Hughes is starting with Tag Team champion Jake Steele since Hughes delivered the message after ruining Steele's International Title hopes and attacked Steele with a kendo stick. Hughes and Steele embarked on a brutal war over the next month which ended with Jake Steele taking Hughes' ACW career away from him, but how long will Hughes stay away from ACW?

Spitfire

It turns out that Hughes didn't stay away from ACW for very long at all when he found an opportunity to take advantage of the battle that was waging between ACW and OCW by having the OCW chairman Stephan Russo sign a re-instatement order and then, by forging the signature of Chairman Gingerdude he was allowed back into ACW. Working alongside his manager he created a new identity for himself to fit his no-nonsense attitude and thus 'Spitfire' Jonny Hughes was born and leapt straight back into battle with his nemesis Jake Steele. The pair fought for most of the month but it came to be known that Hughes was not the only man out for Jake Steele as many other ACW Superstars also wanted a shot at the International Champion and so a match was signed that would appease everyone. A Hell In A Cell Evolved match between Hughes, Steele, Freeman, White, Andrews and the shocking return of The Macho Man RDK! In the end Hughes was able to get one over on Jake Steele as he spit a brutal fireball into the face of the champion and was also the man pinned to lose Jake Steele the title.

Back from the break and into The Faith

When ACW returned from its winter break Hughes found himself, once again, in a bit of a losing streak and was accosted by the recently returned AC Evans who brainwashed Hughes into joining his group The Faith. Whilst under Evans' control Hughes was forced to do various nefarious deeds but snapped once he found Evans' diary in which AC has written some derogatory things about Hughes, the pair had a Steel Cage match at Ragnarok which was won by Evans who had to resort to a low blow to get the victory.

The war with Jason Freeman and the dawning of a new Empire

After his cage match and after leaving The Faith Jonny Hughes had a new lease on life and seemed to be more carefree and laid-back than we are used to seeing him. However, this new attitude would not last long as a series of confrontations with former tag team partner Jason Freeman and the combination of some egging on the part of Jack Jefferson and Brian Bravado brought out the worst side of Jonny Hughes, a side we are all too familiar with. After spending a few weeks being made to look foolish by Jason Freeman we saw the violent side of Jonny Hughes return when he destroyed Jason Freeman with help from a steel chair, in the coming weeks Hughes and Freeman would argue and brawl, one of the brawls eventually spilled into the backstage area and was broken up by ACW Security. Chairman Gingerdude promptly booked the pair in a Falls Count Anywhere match which ended with Jason Freeman falling 15 feet from scaffolding into a large waste container and as if that wasn't enough Jonny Hughes, Dan White and Jack Jefferson then doused the bin with petrol and set it ablaze, leaving Jason Freeman to burn. Later that evening the team of Hughes, White and Jefferson stole the Entertainment Title from Dave Shadow, destroyed Shadow and Spade and declared themselves as The Empire, a group aimed at taking control.

MOVESET



Some of the move names will be hyperlinked to a video of the move.

Finishers

Primary Finisher:LigerBomb
It's essentially a high angle sit-out Double Underhook Powerbomb finished a pinfall attempt. (+++++)

Secondary Finisher: The Crossface
A move that every wrestling fan should be familiar with and a move that Hughes has recently adopted into his arsenal. The move is rumoured to have been innovated by Dean Malenko, one of Hughes' biggest influences, but was made famous by the controversial Chris Benoit. It is unknown whether Hughes' use of it is intended to annoy fans and wrestlers alike or if he's using it for it’s' effectiveness but either way it has become a talking point in the wrestling community. (++++)

Striking Finisher: The Roaring Elbow~!
A move that has become synonymous with Jonny Hughes in the last 12 months. Essentially it's Misawa's rolling elbow strike, a stiff spinning elbow to the side of the face of the opponent. Hughes will often look to hit this move at least once every match and it can also be used as a flash counter and is often used for near falls by most match writers. (++++)

Desperation/Big Finish Finisher: Dream Shatterer 2.0
A sickening Double Underhook Piledriver (Tiger Driver 98) performed with a little jump for added impact. This is a move Hughes has been using on the independent circuit during his time away from ACW. He uses it for its finality and effectiveness as much as he uses it to draw the ire of fans and wrestlers alike since the Piledriver is universally frowned upon for its dangerous nature. This move has resulted in several DQ's and is used to make a statement rather than draw a pinfall.

Trademark Moves

The Showpiece
A swinging backbreaker (Catatonic) into a reverse STO. Often followed by a pinfall. (++++)

Shock and Awe
Hughes lifts the opponent onto his shoulders and performs a quick front slam before hitting a double stomp to the chest followed with a running Back Senton Splash. (++++)

Texas Cloverleaf
The classic submission hold, is almost a third finisher for Hughes. (++++)

Ode to Dynamite
A Diving Headbutt. Done in tribute to Dynamite Kid. (+++)

Yakuza Kick
Simple enough really, a running kick delivered with great force. Can be used as a standalone move, counter or as a transitional move. (++++)

Spitfire
A suicide dive through the ropes, that connects with a flying forearm smash of great velocity.

A move used only when the right circumstances arise and not to be used in regular matches.

Smack My Bitch Up
Hughes charges the opponent into the corner and smashes him with a few stiff forearms before charging out towards the centre of the and hitting a running flying forearm smash to the corner the opponent then stumbles out of the corner and is hit with a sick rebound lariat by Hughes. (++++)

Enemies

Andrew Starr - Andrew Starr is one of Jonny Hughes' oldest and most bitter of rivals. Hughes and Starr embarked on a violent feud over the ACW Entertainment Championship with both men going to extreme lengths in order to out-do the other, eventually the pair settled their differences in a match that ended with Starr picking up the win and taking the Entertainment Title from Hughes and unifying it with his Lightheavyweight Title.

Jake Steele - Jake Steele is considered by many to be the main rival of Jonny Hughes in Alpha Championship Wrestling. After a few weeks of Jake Steele being attacked by a masked assailant Steele came out to the ring and demanded the identity of his attacker was revealed. Hughes duly obliged Steele, but only after he smashed Steele over the back of the head with his kendo stick. As Hughes and Steele’s rivalry grew so did the lengths that they would go to in order to defeat each other. With Jonny Hughes even going as far as hitting his patented Brainbuster onto the hard concrete floor. The war continued to wage on for the rest of the month until the pair faced off in a Loser Leaves ACW match which Hughes lost. Never one to stay away for long Jonny Hughes returned to ACW and set his sights back on Jake Steele who was now the International Champion and a marked man in ACW. Hughes and Steele’s battle ended when they faced off in a Hell in a Cell Evolved match with 4 other men for the International Title during which Hughes spat a fireball in the face of Steele. Even though the pair have had their vicious battles it is rumoured that there is still plenty of bad blood between the two and that there is still some ill will.

Thunderkiss - The man known as Thunderkiss embodies everything that Hughes hates about professional wrestling.

Jason Freeman - Hughes and Freeman's paths have crossed many times in the past, they've been stablemates, teammates and enemies. Their last encounters included a Tables match and Jason Freeman being set on fire by The Empire.
