Appearance:[/u] As far as the ring attire goes for the tag team, they will normally wear their normal attire but with match colors. On a few big occasions, they will break out their tag team attire which looks similar to their own but Purple/Black with a Silver Top Draw Logo on the side of the short. BK London normally wears singlet tights whereas Jake Cheng sports a shorter version of Hakama pants.

Entrance Description:[/u]
Following the moment of complete silence the beginning guitar and trumpet solos of "Pressure" by Lupe Fiasco sounds through the speakers and the crowd goes absolutely nuts, but not in the way Top Draw would like. The heavy boos and jeers from the crowd are drowned out by the loud music. As the heavy drums shortly follows and lone piano notes sound, both Jake Cheng and BK London make their way through the curtain onto the top of the stage. BK London and Jake Cheng survey the thousands of fans in attendance while standing at the top of the stage, and they're more arrogant than ever. They embrace the less than approving reaction as they stroll down the ramp, and don't pay attention to the fans jeering near ringside. Jake Cheng slides in the ring while BK London hops up on the apron before walking over to the turnbuckle. Jake Cheng finds his own corner and hops up on the middle turnbuckle before posing from the crowd. Across from him is BK London also doing his signature pose and both hop down and do it on the opposing turnbuckles. After basking in the warm glow of the flashing lights, they hop down and await their opponents to make their way to the ring.

Background Information:[/u]

Top Draw first formed as an unnamed tag team in a small fed called PWB when they were paired up to face the tag team champions of the fed. They ended up winning, but the next day the fed was closed. The permanent PWB tag team champs were forced to scrounge around for work until they landed a deal at GFWWE. They were forced to part ways due to a brand split. Then GFWWE became ACW and the tag team was reunited. It wasn’t long until they won their first ACW tag gold on August 2nd in 2004. They held the titles for almost a month before TIM defeated them. They attempted to regain the titles but never could regain them and broke up at EOTR that year. And from there, their singles careers exploded. On and off teaming, Jake and BK both made history in ACW, BK being the first Grand Slam Champion, and Jake holding the longest LHW Title Reign and the record for killing the most stables. But during a swerve of events, Jake, BK, Predator and Gingerdude formed the new, and better, Corporate Alliance. But soon Gingerdude, and Predator were both kicked out of the group and Rawt Ross was added to the mix, making the Triple Syndicate. Unfortunately, Rawt had to leave ACW and left Top Draw alone.

Throughout this Top Draw run, they attempted another run at the ACW Tag Team Championships but their efforts were foiled by Flower Power. After the loss, their hopes of becoming Tag Team Champions once again were destroyed as Flower Power decided to retire the belts. The tag team tandem would still work as a duo until the suspension of BK London. But on the first show of the New Year, the tag team tandem reunited and plans to take ACW by storm as a tag team. Fast forward to Fallen Heroes 2007. Top Draw starts their decline when Jake and BK are the last two people in the battle royal. When BK London comes out victorious, Jake starts to grow jealous and paranoid, one night attacking his long time friend before he decides to drop the team’s dead weight. BK is appalled by Jake’s behavior and they go at far lengths to one up one another. Jake finally got his revenge on BK London at Spring Into Hell, when he defeated BK London 2 falls to none in a Two out of Three Falls Match. But BK ultimately got the last laugh when he pushed Jake off a ladder through a pair of burning tables in an I Quit Match at the ACW 3rd Anniversary Show. They would later face off in a Last Man Standing Match at Seven Deadly Sins 2007, a match BK London won.

A year passed and not much occurs between the former team mates. And just when you thought Top Draw would never be together again, Jake Cheng comes to the ring to assist BK in finishing off The Ravaged II the first show after Omega Effect IV. Little did London know, Cheng was part of Stephan Russo’s plan to make ACW his. And now Top Draw is once again a dominant force in ACW.

[BK London]

Style of Tag Team Offense:

Being that we're both veterans and have tag teamed longer than any other teams currently in ACW, we know exactly all the basics and tricks of the trade when it comes to tag team wrestling. We're not afraid to break the rules if it helps wins us the match, and we're not afraid to show off our array of tag team maneuvers.

=================================================
FINISHING MANEUVERS
=================================================

Primary Double Team Finisher: Luck of the Draw - Alleyoop/Running Ace Crusher[/u]
Description:[/b] Since they started their team, they have been using this maneuver and it has become very deadly and won them quite a few matches. BK London would lift the opponent into a powerbomb, and as he would fall backwards for the Alleyoop - Jake Cheng would come off the ropes or just run and hit the falling opponent with an Ace Crusher.

Secondary Double Team Finisher: Just Your Luck - Spinebuster Hold/Flying Ghetto Stomp[/u]
Description:[/b] Wasn't originally the Just Your Luck maneuver, but it has now became it after replacing the forgotten move. BK London would hold the person in a Spinebuster/Bearhug hold while standing near the turnbuckle. Jake would then ascend to the top turnbuckle and score with a huge Ghetto Stomp by leaping over BK London and jumping right on the person's chest.

=================================================
COMBINATION MANEUVERS
=================================================

1. Atomic Drop to Modified Scissors Kick[/u]
Description: Usually used when one tag team partner is knocked out, BK London would deliver the atomic drop on an opponent. As the opponent is stumbling to the center of the ring holding his spine and posterior, Jake comes off the ropes and hits a modified Scissors Kick as seen in the gif below:
Gif: img172.imageshack.us/img172/6933/capricekickfh9.gif

2. Kaientai Colors - Camel Clutch/Running Front Dropkick[/u]
Description: In a tribute to Kaientai, one of BK London's favorite teams of the 90s, Jake Cheng will hit his opponent with a drop toe hold before locking in a Camel Clutch. BK London will then bounce off the ropes and score with a very quick and painful front dropkick to the face.

3. New Event Omega (N.E.O) - Simultaneous Diving Leg Drop/Diving Frog Splash[/u]
Description: In a move stolen by the Hardy Boyz and then altered, Jake Cheng and BK London normally don't use this in matches. They more or less use them in hardcore variation of matches such as street fights, ladder matches, table matches, and etc. BK London would get up on one side of the ring and Jake Cheng would get up on the other. Jake would dive off and hit his Picture Perfect while BK London would jump off and hit a Frog Splash he stole from Latino. He would normally hit his Shooting Star Press, but the distance isn't as far as the Frog Splash. They both would connect in the middle of the ring to the fallen opponent.

=================================================
BK LONDON's SOLO MANEUVERS
=================================================

=========================
FINISHING MANEUVERS
=========================
Primary Finisher: Shades of Michaels - Superkick[/u]
Description: This move almost always ensures a win for BK London, there are three variations of the move:

• HBK Variation - With this variation it usually follows a London-Plex and BK find the nearest corner. He tunes up fro the band HBK style and as his opponent rises he connects with the superkick.
  Gif: img511.imageshack.us/img511/4936/79344346qx6.gif
  
• Surprise Variation - This variation requires no set up and usually comes out of nowhere in desperate times.
  Gif: img255.echo.cx/img255/8505/sweetchinmusic2th.gif
  
• Guillotine Variation - This variation requires BK to whip his opponent off the ropes. As the opponent rebounds off the ropes he grabs the opponent from under his arms and tosses him in the air. His opponent then becomes to come down feet first and BK backs up and before he can touch the ground BK connects with the Superkick, snapping his opponent's head back.
  Gif: img51.imageshack.us/img51/9490/d5vn.gif

Secondary Finisher: The Corporate Lock - Ankle Lock[/u]
Description: Once a trademark move, since his encounter with Flamingo it has returned back to one of his finishing moves. BK London takes pride in seeing tap out, and sometimes he'll latch on this move rather than just pinning the opponent for the 1-2-3. Since this move is so painful that it really does not require any build up at all, BK may lock this move on out of nowhere. Most likely after countering a move. BK has developed another variation of this manuever over his 4 month sabbatical in 2007.

• Grapevine Version: This one has the ability to come out of nowhere during a counter or simply he just locks it on when he feels it necessary, such as in a desperation situation. Once he grabs the ankle, before even applying torque he applies the grapevine using his legs to stop them before they can counter.
  Gif: img514.imageshack.us/img514/6550/anklelocktakerky0.gif
  
• Koji Clutch II Version: Not usually done since BK hasn't mastered it as much as he wants to, but he will be known to pull out this move to apply a lot of pain to his opponent. This variation of the move is damn near impossible to counter.
  Gif: img138.imageshack.us/img138/2971/doubleanklelockgf8.gif

Rare Finisher: From Brooklyn to London - Cannon Ball Shooting Star Press[/u]
Description: Used if person is really out of it and BK wants to put the exclamation point. Applied perfect unless BK is really tired and exhausted. This also can be done from the apron as a Springboard Move.
Gif: img232.imageshack.us/img232/4606/ssp7cohg4.gif

=========================
TRADEMARK MANEUVERS
=========================

1. The Revolver - Twist of Fate[/u]
Description: Was at one time the primary finisher for BK London, but since it has been replaced by the Shades of Michaels it has taken the place of the London-Plex. While it doesn't finish the match like it used to, it can change the tide. But this move is very easily countered as well.

• Standing Version: Not usually applied by surprise like Matt Hardy does, but it follows a kick in the stomach. The head is then driven into the mat first, followed by the rest of the body.
  Gif: img504.imageshack.us/img504/8679/twistoffatevm9.gif
  
• Elevated Version: Usually done when opponent loses his balance while standing on the top rope, and falls on his groin. BK ascends to the bottom turnbuckle and completes the revolver right off the top rope.
  Gif: img217.imageshack.us/img217/374/elevtofuq7.gif

2. The Mockbottom - The Rockbottom[/u]
Description: Taken from his long battles with the Macho Man RDK, The Mockbottom has made its way back into it's moveset. More to insult the opponent, but it also can be used as an insult. It garners much heel heat when it due to the love the fans have for The Macho Man RDK.
Gif: i29.tinypic.com/2nhdes2.gif

3. London-Plex II - Regal Plex[/u]
Description: BK London grabs his opponent from behind and places his arm through his opponents legs, and his other arm over his shoulder and clutches both hands. BK then throws him backwards like a Backdrop Driver somewhat, often ends in a Bridge.
Gif: img98.imageshack.us/img98/4115/bryandanielsonregalplexgr8.gif

4. Yakuza Kick From Hell [/u]
Description: For the umpteenth time, this move has returned to the moveset of BK - just purely to dish out punishment which is the current trend for this moveset as of late. There are multiple variation of this manuever:

• Counter Version: BK is whipped into the corner where he plays possum for a bit. While his opponent rushes toward him, BK runs out of the corner and bounces off the ropes. His opponent runs sternum first into the turnbuckle and staggers out the corner. Upon turning around, his opponent gets a face full of BK's boot.
  Gif: img216.imageshack.us/img216/4751/ykfhjv7.gif
  
• Desperation Variation: If BK is heavily exhausted, he'll manage to corner his opponent before deliveirng a huge boot to the skull that sends his opponent over the top rope to the outside. This gives him a chance to recover while his opponent is hurt on the outside.
  Gif: img258.imageshack.us/img258/1130/playasboot2or1.gif
  
• Kawada Kick Version: BK's opponent is in the corner and BK races full speed towards his opponent and connects with a kick to the jaw, similar to the Playas Boot MVP does on SD. BK may target another limb with this move if he's working on such.
  Gif: img140.imageshack.us/img140/9012/playasbootjr7.gif
  
• Shining Yakuza Kick: If his opponent is on the ground, getting up, and BK London feels the need to strike. He'll run at his opponent, use his opponent's knee as a launch before booting the lips off their face.
  Gif: i26.tinypic.com/2d9sqdc.gif

5. The Mouthwash - Running Facewash[/u]
Description: This usually comes after the Kawada Kick, but not always just mostly when the opponent has sunk in the corner. Without wasting any time, BK bounces off the ropes and delivers a huge Facewash to his opponent. When he hits it, BK gets his mouth caught in the ropes and ends up biting it for effect.
Gif: img216.imageshack.us/img216/6083/facewashxk6.gif

6. Multiple German Suplexes[/u]
Description: This one is the weardown move of the trademark moveset, this is used not for flash but simply to wear down. Used in an attempt to keep the opponent down long enough so he can recover, he hits anywhere from 3 - 6 German Suplexes at a time.
Gif: i32.tinypic.com/2qv5c3l.gif

7. Medevil London - Leaping Reverse STO[/u]
Description: An out of nowhere move which is basically used to turn the tide of the match in London's favor, used quite frequently.
Gif: i25.tinypic.com/10xexj6.gif

8. Crown Heights Roll - Running Corner Flipping Senton[/u]
Description: One of BK London's more flashier moves, even though it's not that flashy. Used quite often in the ring, and usually gets his opponents into position after a running elbow smash.
Gif: i31.tinypic.com/3025634.gif

=================================================
JAKE CHENG's SOLO MANEUVERS*
=================================================

Finishers[/b]

Primary Finisher/Desperation: Second Heartbeat - Roundhouse Kick
Description: This kick in karate is plain and simple a roundhouse kick. Although it doesn’t have the Chuck Norris effect, it’s still very strong. If executed perfectly, the shin should connect with the opponent’s face and while foot hits the heart, giving the move its name. This move comes with two variations:

• Straight Shot: As the opponent rises from a previous maneuver or after a kick to bring them onto one knee, Jake will throw the kick to the opponent’s face.
Gif: img73.imageshack.us/img73/9997/lowkikickkb7.gif
•Springboard: Jake will get a running start and use the 2nd rope to get a boost to get the standing opponent.
Gif: img522.imageshack.us/img522/8514/senshitidalwave03ua0.gif

Name From: "Second Heartbeat" by Avenged Sevenfold

Secondary Finisher: Picture Perfect - Guillotine Leg Drop
Description: And what would a high flyer be without a top-rope finisher? This leg drop is not meant to be flashy, completely for effect. And right on the throat, I would say it is effective.
Gif: img75.imageshack.us/img75/6430/kennyguillotinelegdrop04yc2.gif

Name From: Picture Perfect (In Your Eyes)" by 10 Years

Rare Finisher: Injection - Ghetto Stomp
Description: When all else fails, Jake will hit the Injection.

6) Jakie Drop - Standing Chokehold to STO

7) Choose Your Fate - Handspring Manuevers
Description: Yeah, that’s right: you get a choice. You can stand there and take an elbow like a man, or, if you think you are a clever SOB, you get kicked in the head.
