Character's Birth Name: Joseph Michaels
Ring Name: Tapioca Joe
Alia(s)/Nicknames: Tap
Gimmick: Aged veteran from the territorial days looking to prove he can still go with the younger generation of wrestlers. He has always been haunted by his "failure" to achieve World Heavyweight Championship status with whatever companies higher ups although he has always been extremely over with the fans.
Joe has competed in various indy organizations in his long history of wrestling. Now, his toughest test has come in the form of Global Wrestling Division. During a multi-year hiatus that he decided to take in order to spend time with his family and loved ones, he has adapted to a more technical style, combined with Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Kickboxing, and his aggressiveness contributed by his anger that he is able to control, while retaining his showman style to get the crowd pumped up. One question remains in his mind...can he finally attain what he has dreamed of since starting his career years ago: becoming a World Champion?

Entrance Music: 'Princes of the Universe' by Queen
Entrance Description: A pair of bright, golden lights flash across existence as Queen's "Princes of the Universe" sounds out across the arena. At the :15 mark, the lights fall on the center of the platform, where Tapicoa Joe stands still and prepared, wearing his trademark black wrestling pants. At the :27 mark, he turns around toward the ring and raises his arms, cueing a display of brilliant, showering golden fireworks shooting wonderfully up from the side of the ramp. He stands and looks around coolly as cheers from the diehard wrestling fans who recognize who he is rain down upon him from all sides, until the :45 mark, when he begins to make his way down to the ring, slapping a couple of hands on the way down the ramp. At the 1:11 mark, Joe removes his jacket and tosses it calmly down onto the floor. He ascends the steps of the ring and enters it.
