PERSONALITY
Tyler is one of the most charismatic and enthusiastic individuals inside and outside the squared circle. His energy rubs off onto whoever he associates himself with, whether that be close friends to family to the fans that support him and make him considered by many the most loved men in pro wrestling. Playing alongside his energy is his endless kindness for everyone, showing compassion and respect as much as he possibly can. Of course, he has his enemies, and for those who get on the bad side of Storm they know they are in for a psychological battle, as Tyler can pick apart his enemies mentally and take advantage of the opportunities that open because of the insertion of himself into the other's mind.
Tyler also is a very well educated man, earning a degree in Business Management and having owned a wrestling fed himself. He knows the insides and outside of behind the scenes work and knows what decisions are beneficial and career threatening.

ENTRANCE THEME
"Time To Shine" by Saliva
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION
The lights go out throughout the arena as the sounds of a tornado siren and thunder begin to play through the sound system, a dark blue hue radiating through the lights whenever the siren reaches it's peak. The thunder sound continues to grow louder and louder until both it and the siren completely cut out. Immediately, words formed from lightning graphics begin appearing on the tron:
"TIME"
"TO"
Suddenly, a lightning strike hits the stage and smoke begins bellowing from the spot that was hit as the opening static rift to "Time To Shine" by Saliva begins to play and the word "SHINE" appears on the tron. Just as the song goes to the opening guitar rift, out from the smoke runs out Tyler Storm to a roar of cheers from the crowd. Tyler smiles as he walks to both sides of the stage, signaling to the crowd and mouthing words of respect to them before walking back to the middle of the stage and letting out a yell of "Time To!" which the audience responds with "Be Witness!" Tyler then begins walking down the ramp towards the ring, high-fiving and hugging fans along the way.
As Tyler reaches the end of the ramp, he pauses for a moment to take in the energy from the audience before hopping up on the apron, then jumping up and using the top rope as leverage shoots between the top and middle ropes feet first into the ring. In the ring, Tyler goes to each corner and signals out to the fans once more, and after he finishes at the final corner walks to the center of the ring, punches the ground, and lets out a warrior yell before walking to his respective corner and waiting for the match to begin.
WRESTLING STYLE
Technical/Highflyer
STRENGTHS
1. Tyler exhibits a very high risk type of fighting, and because of this he usually is able to achieve high reward as his devastating aerial assaults can make an opponent be taken out of a match very quickly.
2. Tyler has been known to be very sinister in attacks to areas of weakness, so wrestlers with limbs or areas that are slightly injured will be taken advantage of and targeted throughout the whole match.
3. Tyler fights on through any punishment he receives, whether it be a simple submission to being thrown off a cage or into barbed wire. He always finds a way to not give up and get up from it all. He may not succeed in the end, but this man never goes down defeated, but fighting till the end.
WEAKNESSES
1. What is his strength can also be a huge weakness. As Tyler does take high risks, sometimes they can and will backfire and that is just part of that kind of wrestling.
2. A current weakness for Tyler could be his slight rustiness in the ring, as he has not stepped into a normal routine inside the squared circle in about a year and a half.
3. An attack on Tyler's family will always effect him emotionally. Be warned though, although originally it will be the greatest weakness you can unleash, it will very much end in an emotionally fueled beat down that DQ'd or not Tyler will not stop until you are bloodied and gasping on little air.

BIOGRAPHY
Tyler Storm has slowly built himself up as one of the greatest personalities in pro-wrestling history.
Tyler knew from his early days that he would be stepping into the squared stage. His father, a wrestler himself, began training Tyler as soon as he could. Some of his dad's old promoters say Tyler was doing dives off the top rope before he was even 5-years-old. Tyler not only got to learn hands-on, but he got to watch all of his father's matches from ringside.
However, what really opened the young Storm's eyes to the wrestling world was his father's last match. Tyler was 15, and his father was competing in a Texas Death Match for the company's coveted World Title. The two were of equal strength throughout the brutal match, but tragedy struck following the conclusion of the match when Tyler's father collapsed from an epileptic seizure just seconds after being declared winner and new world champion. Although Tyler's father did manage to make a pretty speedy recovery, the event scarred him not only physically but mentally as well. Because of this the elder Storm announced his unwanted retirement, surrendering the one title he sought after for so long after holding it for just 1 week. After watching his dad give his emotional retirement speech in front of the many people who supported him through the years, Tyler got the spark he needed to begin the journey to becoming the man he is today.
Tyler trained vigorously under his own supervision until he turned 18, when he tried out and earned a spot on the roster of his local wrestling organization. Although Tyler never captured the gold, he did impress some scouts enough that he earned a contract under the Shootclub Wrestling Alliance. After training for a few months at Shootcamp, the developmental territory for SWA located in Atlanta, Georgia, Tyler earned his stripes (enough that this is where he earned the nickname "The Tiger") and was upgraded to the Shootcamp Championship Wrestling roster in Arizona.
During his SCW stint in which he was a one time Television Champion, Tyler's main objective was his rivalry with the notorious group Monolith led by the mastermind of evil at the time, Tony Hardcastle. Hardcastle and Storm battled for months, both having moments where one got the upper hand on the other. Sadly, the rivalry and Tyler's SCW stint was short lived as the SWA shut its doors due to massive breakdown in the upper management of the organization. Tyler feared he would have to start back from the bottom, but he learned from several of his friends of a new home...the NEXT EVOLUTION WRESTLING ALLIANCE.
Tyler and several other SWA stars signed on to the NEWA, and after going through a screening process in The Training Facility the stars were distributed among the leagues set up at the time. Tyler was signed on to 3CW, where he accomplished a good bit of success in defeating stars such as Dennis Anderson, Ace "ARW" Watson, and David Dreadful. Tyler also really put together some friendships while in 3CW, mainly with Owen Gonsalves whom he had met in Arizona and the two are now on/off tag partners in the team known formerly as All Sold Out (now as Young Scratch Reborn in honor of Old Scratch, a trainer for Tyler and Owen). Sadly, Tyler's stint in 3CW was cut short because of a leg injury, some serious family issues, and the closing of the league itself due to budget reasons.
Tyler was reassigned to Florida State Wrestling following the closing of 3CW. Sadly Tyler's journey in Florida took a massive halt due to emotional stress from divorce, and this experience changed Tyler. He became more vicious in how he handled situations, and slowly the kind, loving, forgiving lifestyle was infused with new emotions. Mean. Hating. Unforgiving. Some called it a new personality...but to Tyler he considered it a new way he was. He was, in his own words, a hybrid of his old self and this new personality.
Tyler's journey to finding who he truly was led him to a short leave from the NEWA and him joining the FedWars Wrestling Alliance. While under the FWA and it's many brands, Tyler managed to accomplish several things that helped reform not only his career, but also his mentality. As a member of KAPOW he became the KABLAM (the second brand of the company) Champion, and also met the lovely Jennifer "Zelda" Lawson, whom he eventually married later on and is still with to this day. From there he moved on to International Championship Wrestling where he won his first ever World Championship as well as the Transcontinental Championship in the short time of 3 months, feats that are still 2 of Tyler's highest to this day. Along with success in these 2 companies he also had short stints with next Generation wrestling and New Edge Wrestling during their affiliation with the FWA, which due to some small problems didn't last and Tyler never had tastes of glory.
During all of this Tyler also managed to start up his own brand in the FWA as he, along with his brother Scott Storm and wife Zelda Lawson, founded STRIKE! Enterprises and created the STRIKE! Wrestling Alliance, which enjoyed moderate success during lifespan, and Tyler renovated a run down arena in Birmingham, Alabama to become the STRIKE! Centre which is still open today and hosts regular events for local and traveling wrestling promotions as well as other entertainment events. Tyler took time off to focus on the feat of running his own wrestling brand but this did not last long as Tyler sought a return to the ring, even going as far as placing himself into the STRIKE! roster and winning his own company's World Championship, which he vacated very quickly as he found it unfair for a company owner to hold their own title, and Tyler also eventually closed his Wrestling Alliance as he found it unreasonable to have his own company ran by someone else. Tyler still continues to this day to run STRIKE! Enterprises, which recently has taken a focus on opening fitness centers around North America and plans are in progress to bring the STRIKE! name worldwide.
With Tyler's life getting better, he managed to end his affiliation with FWA and return the NEWA and FSW for a short time with a new attitude about the aggressiveness of wrestling. However, as soon as Tyler returned he was faced with something unexpected...the NEWA was closing. So, again Tyler was out of a job and he had to go out and establish a new path for himself, which for the time being he did. Tyler continued to wrestle around in several other promotions throughout the world, including a re-established NEW and NFW which was ran by a former friend of the NEWA owner, but eventually Tyler decided to call it quits for a while and took a full on break from competition to focus on building up STRIKE! Enterprises and fully healing the injuries that have bugged him since the beginning of his career. Of course, as time went on he missed the action, the thrill of being in the ring hearing the fans cheer. So now Tyler Storm prepares his next chapter. VOW...welcome to the Eye of the Storm! Be Witness to The Hybrid's Evolution!
