Fighting Style: McLeod is a hard-hitting, dirty bar brawler. His goal is to beat his opponent into the ground. He's also a big fan of the avoid and adapt style, honed during his illegal MMA fight days. He will go to great lengths to tire out his opponent so that he can strike.

Character Backstory:
McLeod has spent his entire life surviving solely on his wits and street smarts. Both have gotten him through several scrapes and have seen him compete in barely legal underground fighting overseas to competing in the former Sin City Wrestling's development facility Fear & Loathing wrestling. He was a staple in the revival of PCW, competing in Louisville until the promotion closed its doors. Most recently, he was part of a tag team that saw success in the Midwest, working for Twin Cities Wrestling (2CW) until its closure in mid-2018. McLeod's most striking feature is his Glasgow Grin— scars that were given to him during a gang fight in his teenage years. His silver-shot hair is usually unkempt, hanging over his brow. His eyes are dark brown. He rarely shaves, generally looks filthy and unkempt, even when he's decked out in a suit and tie. Rumour has it that he was competing in bare knuckle fights in the seedier Vegas dives when he caught wind of this project through an old acquaintance. The rest, as they say, is history.

Past Accomplishments:
2CW Texas Tag Team Championship (as Highland Rose w/ Grace McLeod) March 8th, 2017 — June 14th, 2017
