Previous To Wrestling
Jamie Kendrick was born in Kansas City, Missouri hence the name of his famed finishing move the KC Krush. He was raised by a father who honed a black belt in Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Therefore Kendrick was inspired to learn some Martial Arts himself. In the beginning he did Thai-Kwan-Doe but eventually decided to phase out to more advanced and complex martial arts. He earned himself a black belt in Muay Thai. His father loved Martial Arts but Jamie’s grades began to slip so he pushed it aside in order to force him to work on his schoolwork which may have turned out to be a good thing. He got some superb grades and ended up graduating as 2nd in his class which landed him a scholarships to many schools. He was most interested in Minnesota University though. What he didn’t know is that the Minnesota Golden Gophers are renowned as a wrestling school and soon Jamie was pulled into NCAA wrestling. He joined on and in his sophomore year became an All-American. He won many tournaments throughout his career though he never would become an All-American again. Instead he decided to try out football. He became an All-American twice in this area, playing tight end from his sophomore to senior year. When he graduated he signed up for the NFL draft but went undrafted. He remained a free agent for several months until week 8 of the NFL season when he was signed by the Green Bay Packers to fill in while their current Tight End was injured. Unfortunately for Jamie the tight end he was to replace came back before the game he was set to play in so Jamie was benched until the end of that year when he was released back into free agency. He then received a call from Bull Hartford who was the owner of the Northern Territory Football Association. It wasn’t the most prominent league in existence but it was money. From the ages of 23 to 29 Jamie played as part of the St. Paul Slayers as the starting Tight End. He was the MVP of the Snow Bowl, the NTFA’s Super Bowl three times in 1997, 1998, and 2000 via spectacular statistics. In 2003 Jamie quit the NTFA. He went on to move to Japan where he would earn his black belt in Judo and Kenjutsu. From 2004 to 2007 (ages 30 to 33) Jamie made a name for himself winning a wide variety of Martial Arts tournaments in Southeast and South-central Asia. Jamie then thought that perhaps it was time to rekindle a wrestling career. So at the ripe age of 33 he moved back to America where he auditioned to become a professional wrestler. He landed several small tours all over the States before finally landing a job in major wrestling federation, ‘PrYde‘.

Entrance Description

''‘Wide Awake’ begins to rumble on the sound system and the titantron of “Air Force One” Jamie Kendrick begins to play. Soon silver and gold pyro erupt from the middle of the stage, which Jamie Kendrick soon rises up from via elevator under the stage. As soon as the pyro ends he steps forward and does his signature thumb taunt while the fans chant “Air..Force..One!” He then takes off in a jog toward ring. He does a lap around the ring before hopping on the apron and performing a front flip over the top rope, completing a barrel roll on the inside of the ring which he quickly hops to his feet from. He then heads to the top rope and does the same thumb taunt. He hops off and bounces around the ring stretching and hopping as he warms up.''
