PERSONALITY INFO
Theme Song

Gimmick
Young GOAT. Rainer considers himself the present and the future - the next truly great professional wrestler. He surrounds himself with individuals who tell him as much, reinforcing the ‘delusion’. TEAM RAINER.
Personality:
Quite cocky and arrogant, definitely knows what he wants and how to get it. Will backstab anyone to get what he wants, but that doesn't necessarily mean he won't be friendly at times to the right people.
Strengths
Natural Athlete - Rainer grew up playing sports, it’s clear in the way he moves and performs that he’s made for this.
Expert Cheater - The man knows how to cheat, and cheat well. That’s not to say he’ll be successful all the time, but 8/10, he’s getting away with it.
Ring IQ - Paired with his athletic nature and his ability to cheat he’s got an excellent ring IQ, he’s usually exactly where he needs to be, chaining the optimal sequence of moves together, etc.
Weaknesses
Arrogant - Pretty obvious, Rainer thinks he’s a much better wrestler than he is.
Big Mouth - Rainer talks too much. He’ll push someone to their breaking point more often than not, and that’ll usually lead to a fight with someone pretty pissed off.
