Physical Description
BJORN is a viking berserker. He's built like a wrestler from the 80s. Tall and improbably muscular. Long blond hair undercut on the back and sides and usually kept in a braid. Long full beard with a braid on his chin. Wears full length pants that look like they may be fashioned from a variety of animals and full length leather boots. All exposed skin is covered in tattoos of viking runes. Yes, even his face. In or out of the ring, he's never far from his giant warhammer in the style of traditional drawings of Mjolnir.
From an Atomic Drop/Backdrop setup, he spins around and once he's built up some good momentum, he launches the opponent up as high as he can... Which for BJORN is usually pretty high.
Biography & Background
Not much is known about BJORN. This young giant of a man covered in tattoos broke onto the scene not that long ago and his sheer presence made people pay attention. Yeah, he got the tattoos before he became a wrestler. As a result, he's not exactly the most technically skilled athlete to step through the ropes. His raw power and intensity more than make up for that, though.
It doesn't seem as though BJORN ever goes home from work. His persona is etched into his skin, and he lives the lifestyle. He never breaks character, possibly because it isn't a character. He clearly models himself after his vision of Thor. He frequently implies with all seriousness that he _is_ Thor. The man is clearly nuts, but it's the entertaining kind of nuts so it's okay.
When BJORN is in the ring, it's like watching a force of nature. He throws opponents around like they weigh nothing, and he hits like a truck. He never seems to get tired. When the bell rings, he just seems to become this whirling machine of violence. He doesn't appear to think about what he's doing, he just does. Physically dominating people just seems to be second nature to him.
Unfortunately, BJORN isn't exactly what you'd call a smart person. He's not a complete idiot or anything, it's just that he doesn't think most of the time. Part of this may be due to his weird belief that he's destined to fight a giant snake to save the world one day, so he doesn't really pay attention to the smaller details. He's not a smart wrestler by any stretch of the imagination, and anyone using any sort of tactics beyond "fight" will probably see a bit of success there... As long as they stay away from his mauling strikes and ridiculous power moves.

Entrance & Presentation
[The lights drop and the opening riff of "Twilight of the Thunder God" by Amon Amarth plays over the speakers. The drums kick in, the head of the aisle light up, and there stands the giant frame of the Berserker himself, holding his giant war hammer in the air. As the main riff of the song begins to play, he tells anyone within earshot his name...]
B: BJOOOORRRNNN!!!!
[With that out of the way, BJORN begins stomping his way down the aisle, holding his hammer in front of him, almost leading the way. He keeps his eyes locked on the ring, an almost excited look on his face. Periodically, he barks at random people in the crowd and thumps his chest with his free hand.]
