Aaron King

Warren Thompson (born November 18, 1981), better known by his ring name Aaron King, is an American professional wrestler currently signed by Combative Wrestling Alliance (CWA) where he is currently one half of the reigning CWA Tag Team Champions (w/The Crusader). Aaron King is also signed under Hardcore Professional Wrestling Federation/hPwF.

Childhood
Ever since the age of 5, Warren has been fascinated with wrestling even going to most of the PPV's held by many. His father had died when he had hit the age of 10 and the only thing he could remember him by was their love and intrest for wrestling.

Growing Up
During middle school, Thompson signed up for the wrestling team and wasn't one of the best off the back -- he knew that it would take years for him to become a great sports entertainer like most and wouldn't stop because he came in third, he was determined to become a pro wrestler.

High School
After starting high school, Thompson became well known in wrestling with his school and for the edge, he even tried out football. As many kids had it, he fell to the peer pressure of drugs for a while but was able to overcome this addiction after one incident which would also lead to his big break -- Thompson had been arrested for driving under the influence and crashing into into another car causing an accident.

Big Break
After his release from jail, Thompson went to work with his family in their local barbershop and stayed long enough till he could get on his feet -- wrestling had been put on halt for a while seeing as he couldn't get anywhere with his record of abuse. After trying day after day, he finally got his big break and caught the sight of one familiar group -- from that day on he began his training to become a pro wrestler.

WWE
He began training to join the World Wrestling Entertainment by training with his good friend, WWE's own, Shawn Michaels. He was signed and immediately put on the Deep South Wrestling (DSW) roster. He made several views on WWE, only in promotional appearances. He finally made his debut on January 1st, 2007. However, he was cut the following day due to legal problems and substance abuse.

XPWA
After being released by the WWE, he looked for a contract with a new wrestling federation that was on the rise, XPWA. He worked out terms with his contract and began to train for his XPWA debut.

Debut
On the July 9th edition of Ressurection, Warren Thompson made his XPWA debut against Scary Larry. However at this time, Thompson was wrestling as a Heel. He entered the ring with a lot of cheers even though he wasn't a face, his opponent had come out as well with cheers seeing it was their first match ever. After the bell sounded Thompson quickly begun the match with a spinebuster after tossing his opponent to the ropes, after minutes of fighting and Pepsi Plunges -- his opponent decided to hit him with his finisher technique titled "Scare Tactic". Thompson overcame this and moved outside the ring after feeling very groggy, Larry attempted a baseball slide but Thompson moved just in time for his opponent to be fall out onto the floor. This is when out from the barricade his girlfriend (kayfabe) Christy Lee came and distracted the referee, allowing Thompson to smack a chair over the head of Larry and gain the victory with a pinfall inside the ring.

The Badass Persona
Thompson would then go on to make promos about him and his girlfriend bringing the fire to XPWA, and then told them of his new name -- Aaron King after settling things with the management. King would then go on to rename most of his moves with names similar to his. This persona followed him until the end of XPWA.

Brands
XPWA would then have a draft to see where the wrestlers would go. King had been drafted to the shows Thursday Night brand Overload and had been very happy about this pick, but it seemed this wouldn't last long as the management decided it would be best to bring both brands together forming an alliance and splitting the one thing up into two nights but all the same. As a result, King was now on both Sacrifice & Overload. He went on to win and lose matches for both brands as it lasted, and but was placed on the injury list after taking a brutal beating from A.C. Loire.

CWA
After the close of XPWA, King was out and in recovery. Even with XPWA's ressurection to another company UWE, King was still unable to compete and sign with the short lasting federation. Then came word that many superstars had gathered to CWA and it had begun to rise. It was only a matter of time before King could go ahead and join the roster, all it took was a note from the doctor and he was back to wrestling again .. and believe it or not, he was better than ever. King made his debut match at a CWA House Show, where he took on Rosey - the match ended quickly as King defeated Rosey under a minute with his signature move G.T.H. covering him for the pin shortly afterwards. His next match up came afterwards where he was involved in a 5-Man Battle Royal to determine who would be the first man to walk home Hardcore Champion in CWA. After putting up a good match, King was finally eliminated by the man who would soon go on to become CWA Hardcore Champion, Kalvin Drake.

Aaron King started the New Year off with a bang, as he returned to the ring on January 7th, where he teamed up with fellow CWA Superstar The Crusader to participate in a Tag Team Battle Royal. The match had been almost brutal, with other superstars in the ring such as The Horseman(Paul Roma & Psycho Sid), Wild Storme(Adriana Wilde & Chantal Storme), The Dudley Boyz(D-Von & Bubba Ray), and the couple of Black Dragon & Lime. After series of eliminations, the last two teams left in the ring were The Horseman along with King & The Crusader. After many attempts to knock each other out of the ring, King decided the match with a fatal Super Kick to a Paul Roma who was already holding on outside the ring. Once the dust settled, it was Aaron King & The Crusader who were crowned CWA Tag Team Champions, and the first ever in history.

The Misfits Era
After winning the title belts, Aaron King & Crusader began to form a gimmick. A couple of wrestlers who didn't do what they were told .. and goofed around at times, they were known as - The Misfits. This gimmick was put to action at the following Pay Per View that week, CWA Salvation, where The Misfits would go up against The Dudley Boyz to see if they could defend their titles in a two on two match. After a short promo backstage, the two men bursted into the arena with enthusiasm performing one of their new entrances with dark lightning. The two entered the ring shortly, and The Crusader was the first up to fight. The Cruiserweight Superstar was giving it all against Bubba Ray before being pummeled in and forced to tag in King. King picked up the slack when he went one on one with D-Von Dudley, the two were stalemating half of the match until Aaron ended up in the 3D and hit with the "Wazzzzzup?!". It seemed as if all was lost, but King retaliated with both signature moves .. G.T.H. and S.T.A.D. before performing a clothesline while The Crusader followed up with a Shooting Star Press. After this attack, Bubba Ray assaulted King so he would stay down. This led to King & D-Von coming to a stand at the same time .. before clotheslining each other equally. King having more in him, slid over toward the Dudley and covered him for the pin - securing the win. The Misfits had defended the championship gold at Salvation in their first title defense .. against the Dudley Boyz of all tag teams.

HPWF
Aaron King felt the need to enter Hardcore Professional Wrestling Federtion after fellow CWA superstars had told him of it, he decided to get signed up at HPWF, where for the first time, he would be wrestling in two different companies at the same time. Putting himself at more risk then he was in XPWA.

Aaron King debuted in HPWF at their Wednesday show Warzone, where he went on to face a wrestler with a thug like persona, Chuck Taylor. Aaron King and Chuck traded many blows in the match, but the match was decided when King hit his opponent with the S.T.A.D. putting him down for good, but he didn't finish there. Aaron King followed up with the Boston Crab submission to make Chuck Taylor tap out, and this was sucessful, causing King to win his debut match in HPWF.

Acting Career
During the early stage of his life, Warren Thompson began an acting career and has been seen in most movies as an extra. In Houston he starred in a low budget movie with his brother. His acting career has been put on hiatus due to his wrestling career.

King is said to appear as an extra along fellow superstars Trench K. Oiyami & John Morrison in an action packed film, where King will play a nosey cab driver.
