Main Gimmick: Star of FX’s
Arctic Freight, a short-lived answer to
Ice Road Truckers that was cancelled after three episodes due to low viewership. Bo insists that the show made him a household name and that it would have survived if the network didn’t water him down. Using the minor stardom he achieved on A.F., he’s come to WZCW to pursue his passion of professional wrestling while at the same time vowing that the world is going to see “the real Bo Carson” as he sets himself on a quest to prove how interesting he is.

Sample Pic of Wrestler:
Brief History: Bo fell in love with wrestling and western/action films at a young age, but never saw himself fitting in with the beautiful people on television like Hulk Hogan and Steven Seagal. However, when he was plucked out of his little world as a trucker and thrust onto the small screen as the star of FX’s
Arctic Freight, he felt empowered to go after what he wanted. Trained through years of bar fights and re-watching Steve Seagal in cinematic masterpieces like
Hard To Kill, Bo is ready for WZCW glory.

Sample RP:
A dark, unidentifiable patch of ice seems to extend forever. The moon reflects off of it as a thick mist gently caresses the ground. The only sign of life for miles is a lone eighteen wheeler idling in the middle of nowhere. The back of the truck opens as light pours out and accentuates the parka-wearing silhouette of television personality Bo Carson. His face cannot be seen, but his seething words will be heard.
Bo Carson: FX management wanted a poster-boy. What they got was a loose cannon.
Bo reaches to his darkened neck and grabs something which he drops to the ground. The camera zooms in to reveal that he discarded an ascot.
Bo Carson: No more Mr. Nice Guy.
Those ominous words hang on the chilly northern air as Bo hacks and spits out some of his chewing-tobacco -flavoured saliva. It meets the ground with an unnatural thud. As the camera zooms, it reveals that saliva wasn’t the only thing Bo spit out as in the middle of his spit lays a D battery. Bo’s silhouette turns back into the truck as the scene fades to black, the palpable anticipation of the WZCW Universe apparent to all.
