About Me |
|
| Selectively enigmatic, Modern Primitive and iconoclast, I have been challenging the perception of wrestler and fan alike since 1998, and I don't plan on slowing down anytime. I have a sense of humor, but chances are you won't see much of it here on Myspace, but you will see a link to my webpage shaka.8k.com. Anything else on me can probably be found on Pro Wrestling Digest courtesy of my alter-ego, Redd, who basically rants about what I do for fun since all my talking is done in the ring. Meanwhile, you can keep track of me as I spread through the wrestling independent scene like a virus...My shot at Global Conquest in 06 FWF Hallowe'en Bonefire How evil are you? Morpheus ?? Which Of The Greek Gods Are You ?? brought to you by Quizilla Black Dragon. You have the spirit of a Black Dragon. You like to be active, but you often feel empty and alone. But you take those and turn them into hate and aggression. Sometimes you have a temper problem. You often are social, but hide behind it. You are a whole different person behind it, but let no one get close enough to find that person, however you despise being told what to do, you like to always be free to do what you wish though. What Dragon Spirit Resides in You? brought to you by Quizilla You are a phoenix. You're quiet, and you don't really like to have attention drawn to yourself. You hate it when everyone's staring at you. You get nervous in most crowds, except with your friends. You're smarter than people make you out to be, and you're very creative. What Mythical Creature Are You? brought to you by Quizilla |
