Jake Rogers

Jacob Uriah Rogers (born April 27, 1977) is a Europeon professional wrestler, better known by his ring name Jake Rogers. He is currently under contract to the Revolution Championship Wrestling Federation (RCWF) on the Demolition brand. Jake is also married to Faith Marie Thatcher Rogers, a womens wrestler for the female brand of RCWF, SHIMMER.

Early Life
Rogers was born in the dirt poor town of Port Royal, Jamaica, on April 27, 1977. Jake lived a hard childhood, being beaten, battered and bruised, day in and day out by the rich sons of local politicians that looked down on Jake for his rather shady legacy. Jake came from a long line of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate pirates] that spanned from what can be called the golden age of piracy to his father who was put to via a guillotine for raiding cargo ships around the the shores of England. This occurred approximately around the time Jake was ten years of age, leading to low self esteem as a child. Jake stayed in a state of depression until he met a young girl who also hailed from pirate roots. The young girl's name was Faith Marie Thatcher. Jake and Faith soon became inseparable as they grew up together admiring the works of professional wrestlers such as Johnny Saint and other profound English wrestlers at the time.

Faith soon was able to pull a few strings and got Jake a spot on her father's crew as a Powder Monkey. Faith's father has always had it in for Jake, giving him brutal assignments day to day, and also denying Jake the right to see his daughter. With this happening, Jake and Faith were forced to see one another in private behind the captain's back. Jake and Faith's forbidden friendship quickly turned into a forbidden love.

At the age of 16, Faith and Jake were caught having relations in the storage closet of the ship. Faith's father as enraged as he was pulled out a flintlock pistol and shot Jake off the ship. Jake seemingly unharmed by this swam to safety. Back on the ship Faith was so angry at her Father in the middle of the night Faith took her things and ran off to the shore to meet up with Jake. The couple soon realized if they wanted to make there dreams of making it big in the pro-wrestling industry, they would have to start as soon as possible. With that said, Jake and his lover, Faith Thatcher, hijacked a commercial cruiser, relying on their pirate ancestry, took over the ship and sailed for the Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Early Wrestling Career
Jake, now toughened by several years on the sea, found some wrestling training in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, by a young up and Rogan Reid to be the basis for what would soon be his large variety of styles. Jake and Faith (who also trained under Reid) made their way to the dojos of Japan once again hijacking a vessel. The couple spent two long years in the circuit, wrestling under the names, ザ 塩辛い海の犬 (roughly translated to "The Salty Sea Dog" as Jake's wrestling name) and ザ海オックスフォード運河 (also roughly translated to "The Sea Wench" as Faith's wrestling name). They wrestled each and every night, utilizing tactics and dressing in traditional pirate attire as homage to the two's pirate heritage, a tradition they would utilize for years to come. Jake cites his time in Japan for his hard brawler attitude he utilizes now.

After the time over in the Japan circuit, (Jake) Rogers and (Faith) Thatchers sailed over back to their home continent of Europe as Jake and Faith began to work all over Europe from Ireland to Blackpool. At the age of 21, Jake purposed to Faith Thatcher, merely months later the couple was wedded by none other than Papa Murda. Jake and Faith continued working around the the Florida area Jake and Faith decided it was time to start a family. Thus having Faith give to their first born child, Hope Elizabeth Rogers on April 26, 2000 in Miami, Florida, while still touring for the first time in America. Faith after giving birth to Hope was sadly injured at a house show in Miami,Florida, when Cheerleader Melissa was performing a Texas Cloverleaf, Melissa accidentally bent Faith's legs to hard, thus causing Faith to suffer from a torn hamstring, putting her out of wrestling for 8 months.

Jake now angered by this dedicated the rest of his time in the Florida circuit to Faith's injury. This fire in Rogers heart had him recognized by Thaddius Peters (aka Tad Peters), the owner and chairmen of Revolution Championship Wrestling Federation (aka RCWF).

Dungeon (June 24th-August 20th)
Jake Rogers, now contracted to RCWF, was placed in there developmental training camp, the Dungeon Training-Camp. Jake quickly picked back up on his pirate inspired wrestling as it wasn't `til a month wrestling only dark matches for Dungeon and all in all being overlooked was chosen by fellow trainee at the camp, Eli Eastwood, to assist him in a feud with some hated members of the Dungeon those including: Green Void,C.A. White, Da Average Krew (consisting of John Doe and Average Joe), Pedro Sanchez and Buzz. Jake, now aligned with Norns, Eli Eastwood, Renegade, T.H.O and Riki Madrox, went on to a heated feud that lasted almost Jake's entire timespan in Dungeon. The most infamous feud Jake engaged in was one concerning his wife, Faith Rogers, and fellow Dungeon wrestler, C.A White. The feud escalated when White began to come on to Faith as Jake's jealous and insecure feelings began a heated and unbalanced relationship between the two superstars.

Death Cell
In the midst of an August Painkiller, Jake Rogers showed up in the middle of the program as the Death Cell faction just started to wreak havoc on RCWF. Jake Rogers was soon revealed to be apart of Painkiller's Death Cell attacking main stars of the brand. Jake, being heel for the first time in his entire career, became very unsatisfied about Death Cell's behavior and while trying to talk some sense into the fellow members of Death Cell, C.A. White and Green Void, both whom were former adversaries from the Relentless Aggression vs DABP feud from the Dungeon. At The Man Of The Globe PPV, Jake Rogers faced Fellow Death Cell member, Green Void. Instead of the match at the PPV being a one on one match, Jake was jumped by Green Void, C.A. White, and his replacement, Pedro Sanchez. After the match, he was informed that the attack from the 3 men was another form of being excommunicated from the faction. After that, Jake formerly apologized for his actions and began a friendship with Trent Reign, one of the very first people attacked by Death Cell. At the 2nd to last episode of Painkiller, Jake Rogers and Trent Reign defeated the Death Cell representatives, Pedro Sanchez and Green Void, who were formerly known as Voided Green Card.

Fallout
Jake Rogers was drafted to the newly recovered Fallout brand lead by close friend from the Dungeon Eli Eastwood. Jake would now begin to chase the United States Championship. Jakes voyage for the title began on the first show of Fallout as Jake competed in a fatal fourway for the number one contender for the United Championship which proved futile for Rogers to win. Soon afterwards Jake was attacked by former Death Cell member again Pedro Sanchez leading to a assualt of back and forth attacks until they were locked in a Hell In a Cell forced to work things out as Jake came up again short in the match. Jake afterwards went to a local bar to nurse his lose with rum only to get in a bar fight with another Fallout superstar Piranha over whether Princess Bride or Robin Hood was the better movie. Soon after this Fallout was reported to be merged with Demolition.

Demolition
Jake Rogers was moved over to Demolition after the death of Fallout. As he went to settle in with his new surroundings, only to soon find out that all his rum was stolen again by Piranha, who seemed it amusing to make Jake's life difficult. The two had a no-disqualification match at RCWF's 10th annual Snowbrawl. In which Jake lost via ladder to the skull thus concussing him on the spot. Later the night Piranha returned all of Jakes rum as a Chirstmas present.
