Hamburgers Jackpot

Hamburgers Jackpot is a profesional e-fed wrestler and movie star. He was on the verge of becoming a major star in the sport before suddenly retiring to make movies. To date he has starred in 217 films and counting. He recently has made a return to the ring with the DOUG FIR promotion to somewhat less than favorable fanfare.

Back Story
Not much is known about the background of Mr. Jackpot. It is rumored that he recieved his name and trademark mask while in Japan. The story is that he was named by Takahashi Kikosan in an attempt to give him "the most American sounding name ever". He adopted his trademark purple and green mask in Mexico, supposedly found in a box of unwanted masks. He then made his debut in 1985 as the highflying masked man Hamburgers Jackpot, wrestling in various federations in Texas, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida. He had several high profile matches against such legends as Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, Magnum TA, Tully Blanchard and others, thrilling the crowd with his airial display. But shortly before he was to be offered a contract with the NWA he suddenly retired, instead focusing on a movie career like his childhood hero El Santo.

Parts Unknown Productions
Soon after retiring Mr. Jackpot started up Parts Unknown Productions, a home for the films he would write, direct, and star in. He rounded up a small posse of actors and crew to create the pictures he wished to make. Immediatly after the completion and debut of his first film "Hamburgers Jackpot & The Swamp Amigo" it became very clear that he had absolutley no talent whatsover for making movies. Each successive film got more bizarre, outlanding, confusing, and all around terrible. His movies were universally panned by every major film critic in the country and showed only grade Z theaters and drive ins. It is in those theaters, however, where the true audience for his films would be found. College kids, punk rockers, geeks, and other people who appreciate bad cinema would flock to the theaters to check out Jackpot's latest catastrophe to huge fanfare. He became a cult figure with the underground scene, completley unaware that his stardom is purely ironic. With a newfound sense of purpose he continued to create his terrible movies which were welcomed and consumed by his fans with vigor.

DOUG FIR
With his movie business in full stride, Jackpot decided to make a full fledged comeback in the beginning of 2007. He aired a series of vignettes, always stating he was the star in his latest picture, claiming that he has returned to dazzle and amaze the crowd with is high flying, arial manuvers. But when he had his debut match vs Jackson Jackson it became very clear that Jackpot was completley out of touch with the wrestling audience of today. No longer satisfied with high cross bodies or basic drop kicks the fans booed Jackpot, which confused him immensely. Every match the crowd would voice their disapproval for the dated ring work that Jackpot had to offer. They were especially disgusted with his signature move, five straight elbow drops. Jackpot, in a rare moment of clarity, saw that he had to update himself and vowed to do so in his big PPV match vs Trevor White. Unfortunatly his attempt was a failure as he updated his persona to 1999. Coming out to Limp Bizkit, wearing an nWo t-shirt, and doing DX crotch chops Jackpot was booed the entire match, which he lost when he was hit with the White Out. Since then he has had only minor success, getting victories over jobbers but losing to anyone higher up on the card, and is very worried about never getting over with the fans. Then, as a shock to everyone, he was selected to be Oceanic's tag team partner vs The Humble Gods at the upcoming PPV "The Official Verdict Is In: No One Gives A Shit". Why she selected the out of date, over the hill luchadore is anyone's guess. But Jackpot swears he will use the opportunity to re-establish himself as a star of the wrestling ring.
