Hollywood

Kristopher Earl Werner (born on November 4th, 1984) is an American professional wrestler currently signed to the New International Wrestling Alliance.

Early Life
Kris Werner was born in Hollywood, Californina on November 4th, 1984. His parents divorced when Kris was only 7 years old. His father pushed him, while his mother mostly sat back and watched. So, after about eleven years of switching parent's houses week by week, Kris graduated High School. The day after, he went to a secret wrestling traning facility where members are known as, "The Rouges". Kris spent less than three months as a Rouge before he had had enough, and left due to their strict teachings. While he was a Rouge, his life deteriorated when his girlfriend Kalin, thought that with all the secrecy that he was cheating on her. They broke up, as Kris saw a way out of Las Angeles through wrestling. Kris then moved to Ohio for a tryout for the upstart Ring of Excellence Wrestling. The Scouts were very impressed at his abilities for so little time in the business.

ROEW
Upon entering ROEW, Kris was then given a more extreme character. Doing high flying stunts. The name of the carachter was Version 2. Once entering ROEW Kris was up in a tag team called Group X with a big man named Tyler Moore. They soon rose the tag team ranks as a Yin-Yang tag team. They held the title for three months, losing it to their longtime rivals, Hersch Helms and David Williams. Soon after, Kris then turned heel by attacking his partner, Tyler Moore. He attacked Tyler and took an arrogant look on himself. They had a short rivalry before Kris was "injured" and could no longer compete. The real reason Kris was taken out was because he disagreed with their choice to make him so risk taking. Because while is not the tallest of wrestlers he was still strong enough to do more powerful moves. So in 2003 at the age of 19 Kris left Ring of Excellence Wrestling.

Back To Las Angelas
Kris returned to Los Angeles working at a salon as a late night janitor. One night while the store was closing he befriended a woman getting a late haircut at the store that night. That woman just happened to be a famous model. About a week later Kris was doing a photo shoot with her for the Los Angeles based wrestling organization Western Grappling Wrestling. The owner of the wrestling organization was at the photo shoot and herd about Kris's short wrestling career and decided to give Kris a shot in WGW. Kris then got a gimmick that he would be able to pull off. Good looking, stuck up, and a good wrestler. Kris was shown in short promos about him calling himself Hollywood. The promos ran almost every week, and were very successful. Kris was hated from the second he came on screen with the women's champion in his first promo, till he walked out victorious after his first match. Hollywood quickly climbed the ladder at WGW winning the WGW championship 2 times and the Los Angeles Championship 3 times. In 2006 Hollywood left WGW when his contract ended. Looking for a new job and more of an opportunity Hollywood took a contract for the NIWA.

2006
Entering NIWA Hollywood made an impact in his first match when facing Flashbang wrestler Mark Reckless. Already intervening much to Hollywood's chagrin was Logan Spades becoming the special referee beginning the rivalry between the three men. On the next edition of Flashbang, Hollywood took on Logan Spades delivering all the men had, but Hollywood came up short in a losing effort. After the match Mark Reckless came in and took out both men with a chair. The three man feud climaxed with a triple threat match with Jason Lawrence as a special ringside enforcer. Mark Reckless took the win in the match pinning Logan Spades with the Reckage, and then next week again Hollywood came out blaming Jason Lawrence and Logan Spades. Logan came out to answer the challenge by Hollywood in a Hell in the Cell. Hollywood again came up short against Logan Spades. Hollywood then won the 10 Man Rookie Battle Royal at Grand Slam Celebration II, ending his strong 2006 wrestling career.

2007
After that Hollywood came back more cocky then ever at the start of 2007. Jason Lawrence attempted to bring him back down to earth, but failing to do so as Hollywood pulled the tights to get the victory. Later in the night Logan Spades put an offer on the table of Jason Lawrence for a match. A slight kink in the chain happend when Jason was fired by the angered Edmund Kaiser, but Jason wanted to go out with a bang making the match for the first Rookie Championship. At Dawning of Destruction Hollywood won the Championship match against Logan Spades to become the first ever Rookie Champion.

Hollywood began his title reign by opening the “15 Minutes of Fame Challenge”. In that challenge the challenger has 15 minutes to defeat Hollywood by pin or submission. Hollywood defeated Mark Reckless and Wilheim Krist. Then, the challenge took a hiatus because of his upcoming fued with Manny Gordo. Which started when newly appointed Falshbang GM Keith Hunter along with General Manager Edmund Kraiser made a match at Countdown to Oblivion betwenn Hollywood and Manny Gordo, who Hollywood called a "traitor", for a Breakdown contract and the 20th spot in the Oblivion Battle Royal. Also, a match made for that Flashbang was a tag match in which both men who faced off at Countdown to Oblivion got to choose a tag team partner. Manny Gordo choosing Eddie Bosco, but Hollywood chose Breakdown Superstar "Firebird" Eric Stevens. Hollywood spent most of the match getting away from Gordo and Bosco and only really came in to break up the pin attempt by either of his opponents. Then, the next week was a "Pick your Poison" challenge. Hollywood chose "The Cobra" Carlos, but later came out dressed as Carlos, after Pain Inc attacked him backstage, and attacked Manny Gordo. Manny chose Mark Reckless who Hollywood defeated via pinfall to keep his title going into Oblivion. At Countdown to Oblivon Hollywood faced Manny Gordo in a great match, but came up short when he got cocky and taunted to the crowd instead of pinning Gordo off of a Light's Out. Gordo then spun Hollywood around and dilevered a Manny-Go-Round and pinned Hollywood to get a trip to Breakdown.

After the loss to Gordo, Hollywood looked toward Premonition, but was off-set by Keith Hunter when he made a "Third Time's the Charm" match with Hollywood facing Mark Reckless. Hollywood lost when Mark hit a Reckage through the announcer's table, becoming the second ever Rookie Champion. Hollywood quickly instilled his rematch clause, but DQed himself in the match. After the match the "Plan" set up by Hollywood and Pain Inc, seemingly came through when Zane Parker and himself attacked Mark. Then, a match was made at Fall Out, Hollywood vs Zane Parker vs Mark Reckless for the Rookie Championship. During that match, Hollywood attacked Zane Parker, causing Zane to "Not fallow the plan" when he grabbed the tights of Mark and won the Rookie Championship. After Fall Out, Hollywood faced off against Mark Reckless again, this time both after a match. Mark against Melvin Spades, and Hollywood against "Average" Joe. The two fought to a draw, after Mark hit a diving elbow through the table. This put both Mark Reckless and Hollywood in the match, leaving only one spot open, which Jason Lawerance said was filled. The next week Mark Reckless, Hollywood, "Prototype" Zane Parker, and a secret opponent ("The Cobra" Carlos) fought in a Fatal 4-Way, in which the last contestent in the ladder match, Logan Spades, ran out and attacked Hollywood and Zane Parker. The next week at Premonition, after nearly fourty minutes of a violent, bloody, and grueling match, Hollywood was suplexed off the ladder to the outside of the ring. Soon after, Mark Reckless grabbed the contract and moved onto Breakdown.
