– Lack of Strength: he's not weak by any stretch but he's not going to be lifting anyone over his head for a gorilla press, that's for sure.

CHARACTER HISTORY/BIO
Lex Collins earned every ass in the seats that cheers for him the hard way, through blood, sweat and tears. They were there when he finally cracked into the Main Event scene in mid-2013 while still employed with FTW. They were there when he fought back against injustice and insanity. They were there when he competed in a fan-chosen Turkish Death Match against Aornis Black and pounded the Devil’s Daughter into hamburger. They were there when he turned his back on the corrupt company that had made him a household name, choosing the regional Louisville-based PCW where he finally captured his first World Championship. They were 100% behind him when PCW folded and he moved on to iiW, yet again defeating some of the biggest names in wrestling to capture their biggest prize. Most recently, he held the coveted SCW Vegas Championship uncontested for more than six months before parting ways with the company. From there he moved on to New York-based Olympus, pulling off a stunning 11-1 record before claiming their Zeus Championship. Unfortunately (or fortunately for Lex), the company closed its doors, leaving Collins unemployed in October of 2016. Until May of 2017, Lex took time off to recover from his injuries, looking to focus on his mental and physical well-being. Most recently, he worked briefly for Lion's Road, F'n Awesome Wrestling and Shoot Society before ending up for the longest stretch in World Wrestling Headquarters.
