Physical Description

A large, muscular African-American male, but not wide as a barn in the mold of a bodybuilder like Hercules Hammonds, but fairly well put together in a "hit the weights every day on the prison yard" sort of way. He has a heavy beard and dreadlocks tied back into a high ponytail.

Biography & Background

Cain Jackson enters the AWA from an interesting place... prison. A troubled youth with a background of violence, Cain spent several years in a maximum security prison when he was convicted for armed robbery
shortly after his 19th birthday. Inside prison, Cain was reknown for being one of the toughest men in the joint and had his sentence extended several times for brawling. Fresh out of jail, Cain cashed in
a favor with an old family friend with AWA front office connections to get his foot in the door of the Combat Corner. Todd Michaelson broke down Cain and rebuilt him into the monster that he is. The top student
of his class, Cain tried for months to get promoted to the main roster but Michaelson refused. Frustrated at what he perceived to be Michaelson's attempts to sabotage his career, Jackson jumped at the chance to join Supreme Wright, who quickly made jackson his right-hand man and the head of his group of students, Team Supreme. This decision has brought Cain to the main roster but not through the typical process and as a result, Todd Michaelson has refused to acknowledge Cain as a Combat Corner student or even as a graduate.

While recovering from the injuries inflicted to him by The Syndicate in late 2016, the AWA quietly let Cain’s contract run out while several other members of the roster were released in a mass dump of talent. Cain took the opportunity to travel to Japan and quickly hooked up with Takeshi Mifune’s “Mifune-Gun” faction, where he was paired with his old Team Supreme teammate, the former Alex Martin, now fully embracing his identity as the son of Alex Martinez as the egotistical AJ Martinez. As The Kabukicho Assassin Maniac Squad, the two have wreaked havoc in the Tiger Paw Pro tag team division.

Strengths

1. Size - At 6'8, 285, Jackson is always one of the biggest men in ring.
2. The Big Boot - It’s a true one-hit kill move. Once he hits it, it’s all over but the singing.
3. Toughness - He's a brawler by nature and isn't afraid to throw down with anyone. One of the hardest hitters you'll ever come across in a wrestling ring.

Weaknesses

1. Overkill - Cain tends to enjoy hurting his opponents a little too much. He’s often cost himself matches trying to dish out more punishment to a seemingly finished opponent and letting his guard down.
2. Enjoys the thrill of the fight - All too willing to get into a brawl and throw any strategy out the window.
3. Stamina - He's not built to go for long distances. He will throw everything he has at you in the first ten minutes and quickly lose
steam thereafter.

In-Ring Style & Influences

An agile big man in the mold of Test or Mike Awesome, with the hard-hitting striking ability of Roman Reigns.

In-Ring Repertoire

Finisher

MDK Finisher

The Concussionizer
James Monosso's infamous sandwiching big boot to an opponent as their head is placed against the ringpost. As an anonymous source within Team Supreme put it..."When James Monosso did it, it put you in the hospital. When Cain Jackson does it...it'll put you in a coffin."

Signature Moves

Rolling belly-to-belly suplexes
He just ragdolls his opponent as he suplexes them all over the ring.
Discus Lariat
He'll often absorb a blow, such as a superkick or clothesline and come right back with this vicious lariat.
Backbreaker held on into a military press lift into dropping the opponent throat-first across the top rope
Highway to Hell
An MMA-style slam taught to him by Kolya Sudakov during Supreme Wright's training camp for SuperClash, Cain locks his hands around his opponent’s waist and lifts them over his shoulder. He’ll carry them over to a corner before he proceeds to circle around and RUN across the ring with them and slamming them down.
Beast Mode
After hitting a flurry of offense, Cain goes into "beast mode" which is basically him throwing his arms back and making a primal roar, before setting them up for the finishing blow.

Other Moves

double ax-handle to the chest
superkick
Not as devastating as his big boot, but has enough thrust in it to send most opponents flying nearly or completely out of the ring.
flying clothesline off the top rope
tilt-a-whirl powerslam
pumphandle overhead suplex
BIG legdrop
stalling vertical suplex
Pescado to the outside (Only to wrestlers larger than him)
Stiff punches out of a full-mount/half-mount
Short-range lariat
over the shoulder backbreaker lift -> running charge into the turnbuckles
Ragdoll bearhug hold -> hammerlock bearhug slam
gutwrench falling powerbomb
Uppercut throat thrust
Submission hold defense
After his humiliating submission loss to The Sultan at SuperClash, Cain trained extensively to improve his submission defense. He is capable of fighting off or at least making
most attempts at locking him into submissions holds a major struggle.
