Nickname: Bo (crowd chants This Is Bo's House, Let's Go Bo, etc)
DOB: 06/09/86
Hometown: Bay Area, CA
Alignment: Tweener

Weaknesses: No allies and ego can lead to letting odds be stacked against him
Pic base: Shelton Benjamin
Attire: Tights that are white on the outer half and have a vertical row of Roman stone pillars facing horizontally and running down the outside of the leg. They're highlighted by a blue and orange sunrise that runs over the front and bleeds over into the solid electric blue half of the tights on the innner thigh. A white T Shirt with the words "THIS IS MYYYYYYY HOUSE!" in matching electric blue lettering that's framed by orange smoke (shirt is removed when wrestling) Q white snapback baseball cap worn backwards with the letters H.O.B (stands for House Of Botiatus) in electric blue lettering with orange lining. Matching electric blue and white gloves with orange lining
Theme song: Famous by Puddle Of Mudd
Entrance: Lights drop and the screen displays the foot of wide stone steps. As the opening chords play the shot pans up to show severally steps and then Roman pillars in front of a villa style home from ancient Rome. As the song kicks into high gear with a scream the lights flash back on in the arena and the home on the screen in replaced by the words THE HOUSE OF BOTIATUS in his signature electric blue lettering and he emerges from back. He walks straight to the ring but he plays to the crowd the entire way blowing kisses and soaking in the adulation. He walks to the rings cameraside and hops onto the apron walking over to the corner where he ascends until he's kneeling with one foot is on the oversized ring post the other is on the top turnbuckle. He looks down to his left and points to the announce table. As the song kicks into it's hook the arena goes black again and a spotlight comes on Botiatus now standing. He soaks in the crowd in his signature pose. The lights return once again after the hook ends

Finishers
ADT- Cattle Mutilation Bridging Submission. Signature submission
House Call- A blindside elbow delivered to the opponents temple at high speed offthe ropes. The right elbow is tucked out at the shoulder at narrow angle with the right hand behind the head. The left arm reaches across the chest and underneath the right arm and the left hand reaches up and drives the right elbow into its target at the moment of impact maximizing damage. Secondary finisher
House Rules- An RKO style Jumping Cutter Neckbreaker delivered to an opponent from behind. Signature finisher
Backstory: From the sunny Bay Area Botiatus is a brash but polite and always uber confident superstar. Currently at 33 years old, he traveled overseas right out of high school against the advice of trainers who advised him to wait and gain a few years of indie experience stateside first. Never one to doubt himself Botiatus traveled to Asia and then Europe where he grew his following. An eventual final showdown with his longtime friend and greatest rival Alpha led to an opportunity to come home and wrestle for Bay Area indie FSB.
He's more than a little cocky and while he takes shots at his opponents he goes for substance over cheap pops and he gives credit but always maintains his supremacy. He declares the ring and really anywhere in general he happens to be as his "HOUSE" as it states in his tshirt, this same line is almost always his finishing line for his promos as well declaring THIS. IS. MYYYYYYY. HOUSE. For him it's as much a statement about his place as the alpha dog as it is a testament to how he has thrived in his career by always being comfortable and feeling at home no matter where he's at. He operates by a code of conduct he's developed over the years he calls House Rules (which also doubles as his signature finisher) This list is non written and the rules are fluid to an extent to fit the current situation. Botiatus will often use the rules to chastise his opponents or to warn them that not abiding by the rules while in his house may have severe consequences. He refers to everyone as "Guests" in the house of Botiatus. While he will acknowledge a worthy opponent he very rarely makes friends or alliances.
