Benjamin Jameson

On the night of October 26th, 1979, Benjamin Alexander Jameson was born. From Los Angeles, California, you'd think he might have had the typical lifestyle of a thug, a bastard child, or even the life on the streets. But when you want to know about Benjamin's childhood in Los Angeles, it was the total opposite. Coming from a wealthy family business ran by his father, Tyrone Jameson, gained a lot of popularity in the fashion districts of L.A.. Also his mother was the famed actress, Eliana Hernandez. He grew up in a wide variety of cultures as he was African American, Filipino, and part Chinese from his father's side as well as being Mexican, Spanish, and a little bit of French in to the mix. As a young child, people knew that when they saw Benjamin, he had potential to be something later in life but those people didn't know the exact occupation he'd take up for his career. At the age of 5, he was already close to being 5 foot 2 inches and was playing basketball and was their starting center. He then moved to football as he progressed in his childhood becoming a receiver and a tight end as well. Then came baseball when he had strength to not only bet pass blockers and go inside for a lay up, he also had tremendous power when he stepped up inside a batter's box. Then around the age of 8, he saw wrestling for the first time. It was WCW that caught his eye and he began to see wrestlers like Diamond Dallas Page, Raven, the nWo, Sting, Lex Lugar, and many of the low-mid card high flyers that the promotion put down upon. After that one night of watching his first wrestling match, Benjamin was hooked and now had a scar on his heart that said "wrestling is here". Years after watching WCW, one sunday morning he came across wrestling again but it wasn't WCW, it was the then-WWF. Something about it said that "that was awesome" and "it looks more real than WCW". No kidding, WWF had more edge, more aggressiveness, and more hardcore style to it than the more-conservative ways of WCW. After watching wrestlers like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, The Undertaker, Kane, D-Generation X, and plenty more, it might have been time to give up WCW. However, Benjamin was known to staying with his roots and did he ever more as he still watched WCW night after night after night until one night in 2001 changed everything. After WCW had been taken over, so was Benjamin as he was attending college at the University of Southern California. He was named the starting quarterback and led the nation in almost every passing category. During 2002, Benjamin was a junior and was able to leave for the NFL and go into the draft - which is what he did on his own right. At the 2002 NFL Draft, Benjamin was chosen 1st Overall and was heading to Cincinnati where all the problems started to unravel. Before pre-season started, Benjamin demanded a trade to any team in the west excluding the Oakland Raiders. His wish was granted as he was traded to Denver - whom he had a major love with as it was his favorite team - and received a chance to play with the team he grew up watching. After his stellar rookie year in which he won the Triple Crown - NFL MVP, NFL Offensive Player of the Year, and NFL Rookie of the Year - as well as leading a 16-0 Broncos to San Deigo and won the Super Bowl, including a little something for himself as he was awarded unanimously for the Super Bowl MVP award as well. During training camp after his rookie year, Benjamin had suffered a herniated disc while being in a car accident during the summer of 2003. Benjamin took a year and a half off to recooperate and get back on his normal health track but this wasn't the case. Jameson had returned in 2004 but had tore a rotator cuff in the middle of his comeback season and was sidelined again but for the last time as he decided to walk away from the game that had his fame built in it and now it had diminished away into pieces. A year later around early-mid 2005, Benjamin was on the movie set of Miami Vice portaying one of the guys during a scene towards the end at the shootings. While there, he'd been noticed by Stormy Borden - wife of legendary wrestler "Sting" Steve Borden - who was a good friend of the director, Michael Mann. After talking things through about wrestling, Benjamin decided to give something where he only dreamed of doing when he was a kid, being a professional wrestler. Benjamin however, was undecided and waited for a moment for his life to tone down a bit and then try to see if wrestling was right for him. After six months of training at Knoxville, Tennessee during the summer of 2006, Benjamin had flown down to St. Petersburgh where the iMPACT! Zone was. Then around August, Benjamin and TNA was in verbal agreement to work with iMPACT!. Right off the bat, Benjamin was welcomed and was put on a pedistal as he was also named an Assistant General Manager for TNA iMPACT! as he was serving for and working along side his boss, Stormy Borden. Early September while Benjamin had been working for TNA, Stephanie McMahon-Forcer gave a call to Jameson and wanted to see he wanted to go up to New York to wrestle with a promotion called EWF. Apparently needing no tryout, EFW wanted Benjamin in the promotion but had a different atmosphere as EFW was a breeding ground for rookies to get beat down. At the same time, was contacted by another promotion, ROH, as Benjamin was called up by Babydoll, who is the Ring Announcer and a Talent Scout for ROH. ROH had raised the ante as he was appointed the General Manager for Ring of Honor as well as being on the roster. Currently, Benjamin is on the offical roster listings for ROH, and TNA. He also is the General Manager for ROH and an Assistant General Manager on TNA. Benjamin spends most of his time at his hometown of Los Angeles when he is away from the ring. While on the job though, he lives in Miami, Florida, a 3 hour drive from the iMPACT! Zone. Jameson spends most of his time in TNA as his home is closer and very near to home compared to ROH and EFW where they are in Philadelphia and New York respectively. His ex-girlfriend` is Jessica or known as Precious in EFW. He is currently is with Babydoll as they both see each other when Benjamin has a show for ROH. On October 6th, EFW and Benjamin agreed on new terms where he'll be appearing on EFW T.V. for ceratin occasions as he is strongly booked on TNA and XWF as well as being on the Staff for them and including ROH. Days later, Benjamin decided to provoke his contract one more time but it seemed to be official as he wanted out of EFW for a matter of personal reasons. During his tenure, Benjamin went an horrific 0-2 record.
