Entrance Description(Optional):
The lights dim down to a pale red and fog begins to emit from the entrance curtain. The view pans up to the titantron where the Canadian flag is shown. The opening notation of the musical riff for "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons begins to play aloud in the arena. The American fans quickly begin to boo the greatest wrestler they have ever witnessed before he even has revealed himself. As the music picks up so do the boos. The middle floor of the top of the entrance ramp begins to rise up. The lift stops and in the cloud of fog two figures are seen. The fog dies down and there standing just in front of the entrance curtains, is the “Pride of Canada” wearing a Canadian flag cloak style robe. His head down looking at the ground. He slowly raises his arms to an outstretched position as his manager the elegant Victoria Samuels unhooks his cloak. She removes the cloak and holds it at her side, as Kris now looks up to the center of the arena at the Canadian flag hanging down next to the American flag. Kris places his right hand across his chest and admires his native flag. The fans continue to boo him like they have never booed before. Kris just smiles and brings his hand down from his chest, he opens up his arm and Victoria hooks onto it and the two proud Canadians make their way down towards the ring. The pair stop ever so often to look at the crowd and then at each other as they shake their heads in disgust. They make it down to right by the ring and Victoria lets go of Kris’s arm and walks up the steps and enters the ring. Kris then walks over to the far right side away from the entrance area and approaches the fans. In that group of fans is a man waving the Canadian flag proudly. Kris smiles at the man and extends his arm, and the man hands him the flag. Kris takes the flag and steps back from the crowd and proceeds to wave the flag as they shout and talk down to him. Kris in turn just points at the flag flowing on the screen and then up at the flag hanging from the rafters near the American flag. He tells them of the superiority of him and his country much to their disdain. As he then turns away and walks up the ring steps to enter the ring. Kris circles the ring a few times waving the flag before passing it off to Victoria, after which she steps out of the ring, and Kris does a quick sprint from left in a semi-circle, and then to the right before coming back to the center and jumping up and down a bit, and then loosening up his neck once he comes to a rest as his music dies down and he awaits the introduction of his opponent, or the opening bell.

Finishing Move(s):

2. "Canadian Mutilation" (As the name would imply this move is structured after the Cattle Mutilation performed by Bryan Danielson) This is Kris’s primary finisher for just about anyone he can’t hit the O Canada on, and anyone that has kicked out of it or his secondary finisher.
Gimmick/Background:
Legitimate Athlete with overly inflated ego. Kris is a self centered, self serving, Canadian Nationalist. He sees Canadians as superior to any and everyone on Earth, most notably Americans. Kris being a multiple time National, World, as well as Olympic Champion in wrestling feels that he is peerless in this industry. He has only chosen to come into the business as a means to show his dominance. He is very proud of his countrymen and hopes to bring in a new generation of Canadian dominance. He is the self proclaimed Pride of Canada, and though American’s hate it, when he goes home to Canada you’d think the son of Christ had just entered the building. Kris is one of a kind and Wrestling Syndication and any other company that he graces his presence with can only sit back and be amazed.
