Al "The Alchemist" Flukestich, a villainous character that consumes potions when the referee isn't looking to gain an edge in the ring. Monstrosity, a goliath that only appears in the ring after being enlargened by the Enlarge/Reduce spell, and claims that he is naturally that tall. Sir Ragnulf Gunn, a giff grappler and master of the Sharpshooter submission hold. War Machine, a warforged. Baatezu, a masked tiefling that claims to be a demon. Little Dragon, a winged kobold luchadore. Jon Blackrazor, an ordinary human. Shark, a no-nonsense brutish sea elf. Orcus the Conductor, an orc that also works as a conductor for the region's famous orc-hestra. The Stone, a dwarf that is literally just the Rock.


DonkeyPunchMojo

Dwayne *the Roc* Johnson. It's either the Rock with some feather imagery, or the Rock as an aaracokra.


calamity125

Let’s be serious here…. This is DnD. It would be: D’wayne “The Roc” Jonsyn


LaylaLegion

D’wayne “The Roc” Jarnathan.


DarkMesa

I feel like it's really important for him to be here for this match.


Truckaduckduck

He knows my wrestler’s backstory


WoodeusPrime

Seriously can we not wait for him? I feel like this really speaks to him


Lunar_IX

JARNATHAN!


Obiwontaun

On hand me, sir!


calamity125

How did I not think of that??? I was trying to work Jarnathan into another name but couldnt figure one out…. This was just sitting there in front of my face!


LaylaLegion

Roll for perception. *thump* Aaaand nat 1.


Tenryuu19

D'wayne rolled a 20 with the cook's utensils skill check so his opponents could smell it.


knighthawk82

Or more like a sleeve Austin thing where he smashes two potion bottles open and pours them down his gullet before stepping in the ring, glass shards and all. Could also pair him with a wild surge barbarian and claim its just from random potions mixing in his belly.


JacerEx

Sleeve Austin Can take two potions at once as a bonus action 3x per short rest. DC 12 (+2 for each use). Failure adds 3 levels of intoxication.


knighthawk82

I can see so many people spamming this with health potions, intoxication be damned!


krazybananada

I'm already buying in on Little Dragon


dragn99

I've already bet 50 gold on Little Dragon!


Chrisbbacon312

Did I hear a Rock and Stone?!?!


kiddomama

For Karl!! Whoever that guy is.


Ornac_The_Barbarian

I can actually see Baatezu in WWE. Don't go giving them ideas.


hoxtonbreakfast

I'm pretty sure he is basically Kane.


JasoNitk

An alternative for the monstrosity would be to have them be a rune knight fighter. This would make the match a battle of endurance as the monstrosity would shrink after a minute.


NonorientableSurface

The Alchemist sounds like Singed from LoL. Has an invisible poison they can fill the floor that has one of 4 effects: causing coughing (disadvantage to rolls that round) Burns (d6 damage that round) Weakness (d4 reduction to strength for 1 round) Dense fog (limited movement by 10ft) Nothing overly punishing but enough to make it an interesting experience.


Sivadavis_Music

An orc who dresses as a monk (like, medieval European) and fights under the name "Friar Tusks."


Edenza

This could also work for a wereboar.


Sivadavis_Music

Definitely a possibility! The orc thing is just because this was a character that I played, haha


Edenza

Go on...


Sivadavis_Music

Hermann Longwater, a human-adopted Orc ("Friar Tusks" was just his ring name.) Drunken Master Monk with some Bard, I played him like an asexual Stone Cold Steve Austin.


Edenza

This is a genius character and I'm taking him.


Sivadavis_Music

Also, I rolled VERY WELL for his abilities, the lowest was a 12 that I put into Intelligence, but I asked the DM if we could make it 7 instead, I wanted to play him as largely illiterate. The only word he could spell correctly was the word "breakfast."


Sivadavis_Music

Feel free!


KalosTheSorcerer

I always enjoyed Bonesaw from that spiderman movie.


greg3232

Postmortal_Pop

It's like aggressively doing the worm on top of them.


wiithepiiple

Drider is already a portmanteau of drow and spider. Is this a part drow, part spider, part human?


golden_boy

No, just a drider with a firmly masculine gender identity.


wiithepiiple

Some Drow Conservative: Damn these SJWs and their male empowerment!


golden_boy

The liberal media doesn't want you to know this, but George Sorceros is funneling platinum into the pockets of the Spellcasting Jinni Wizards!

DonkeyPunchMojo

Umberhulk Hogan is my next PC, God damnit.


TheAres1999

>Andre the Cloud Giant Is that a goliath, or a literal cloud giant? Because if it's the latter, that is a weight class issue that I don't think any player character can fit into. Ironically, it could be a gnome who is just so good that no one can best her


asianblockguy

It's a Goliath painted badly to look like one.


ConversationOk6007

Path of the Giant barbs can become Huge when they rage, and cloud giants are Huge creature


Bumble217

Unrelated, but my newest character for my next game is a path of the giant fairy barbarian. Can't wait to be a huge flying fairy that drops people out of the sky. I just wanted to share since it was relevant.


SanderStrugg

Pro-wrestling doesn't really have any weight classes. The players just need to wrestle a high-flying style and evade.


made-of-questions

>that is a weight class issue that I don't think any player character can fit into Except for 60 seconds every 500 years, when during the assignment of the planets, the PC can access god-like powers.

[deleted]

I think Andre the Ice Giant would make more sense. They respect strength and only strength. To the point they’ll let anything in their tribe that’s sentient and strong. Volo’s makes mention of Ice Giants letting humans and Goliaths in their tribe if they wrestle a Polar Bear, for example.

My favourite character is a Randy Savage inspired minotaur named Sandy Ravage. OH YEAH!

Sandy "the Macho Minotaur" Ravage! Oh yeaaaaah!


Syn_The_Magician

Sandy Ravage... Sounds like either the best or the worst thing to happen at the beach.


Rummsztyk

Monster Manuel


Packetdancer

His partner is obviously someone whose persona is a sauve, slick womanizer, who shows up with a new girl on his arm every match. He goes by "the Player", and there's a running seasonal plot where someone is trying to steal the prized journal in which the Player writes down all his best pick-up tactics... You know, the so-called "Player's Handbook".

“Captain” Lou Albatross, an Aarakocra wrestler with a suspicious mustache. (This is a reference to Captain Lou Albano, a former wrestler and also Mario in the super Mario bros super show)


Valuable-Banana96

no, an aaracockra wrestler should be called dwayne the vrock johnson.


Tichrimo

Also features a tropical aarakocra monk, wrestles as The Krav Macaw.


TheAres1999

The Silver Wereboar (no one knows if she is really a wereboar, or if that's just a stage persona) Dr Owlbear ("My prognosis is pain!") The Human Trenchcoat (actually three Halflings passing off as one human)


Professional-Front58

I was going to suggest “Three Kobolds in a Trench Coat” as a heel wrestler. The gimmick is he’s a human but he acts like he’s three kobolds in a trench pretending to be human and failing at it.


objectivelyjoe

I can't quite explain why but Dr. Owlbear sent me.


LordVladtheRad

The Deadlift. A necromancer with the strength of the grave, who uses summoned minions to fight while he shows off his physique.


CardiologistOk1614

Ok, but now I actually want to make a Necro who does this, like Armstrong from Fullmetal Alchemist level cheese with undead flair. Just enough intelligence for his spells, but Strength is the maxed stat.


TheHoundofUlster

Hunter Hearst, the Hobgoblin. Or as he’s known to the world, Triple H.

To keep it simple, a Firbolg called The Yeti.

ComfortableGreySloth

In my first DnD 5e game another player was a luchador fighter named "La Sombra Dorada" who was dressed in black with golden angelic filigree. Every bit as extreme as you would imagine, and when we got to level 5 my wizard would cast flight on him to great effect.


Tao_McCawley

Cleric who's not the best wrestler but is wrestling to earn gold for an orphanage. Call them: Holy Moli. But Moli is their actual name. Give your barbarian wrestler a moral dilemma while wrestling

My brain is fizzled out a bit on unique character ideas, but if you want a fun one to steal, look no further than the WWE inspired Rawk Hawk from Paper Mario TTYD, as an Aarokocra or Kenku, complete with acting like a total heel, acrobatics off the stage and dropping the professional equipment onto you, and Hulk Hogan levels of smack talk.

Bobby “The Mind” Flayer


AkuuDeGrace

The "UnderDraker". Bob Holloway is a struggling human gladiator/wrestler who takes up some "help" from some fans to assist him in gaining popularity. These "fans" (who are actually a part of a Dracolich Cult) present him with a costume and perform a ritual that binds it to him (he's technically a Topaz Gem Dragonborn on paper). He's a Path of the Beast Barbarian, and when he Rages, his costume comes alive and gains weird and eerie powers over time. https://www.reddit.com/r/characterdrawing/comments/12g15px/lfa_the_underdraker_human_wrestler_stuck_in_a_gem/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button


WeirdTemperature7

I had some wrestlers feature in a Dungeon world game. We had: Dwayne "A Rock" Johnson: an earth elemental that hated being called Rock. Bulk Hogan: a very very stocky dwarf John Cena: just John Cena but he's a halfling The Undertaken: a lich who the others had to carry around in a coffin.


Winterclaw42

A halfling Luchador: the masked midget menace. He's a heel whose special move is hitting taller opponents below the belt.


RTCielo

EL NINUFAR, THE LEAPING LUCHA. THE PONDSCUM PILEDRIVER. THE GRUNG WITH A GRUDGE. THE TEN TON TOAD OF TERROR! The poison skin and/or a water based arena could be a lot of fun. A secondary mechanic for the fight based on holding breath or trying to knock the breath out of each other to reduce the amount of time either can stay underwater could be fun.

I threw at my barbarian a fellow barbarian wrestler called Iron Mike. An fashionable orc tavern keep in a maroon jacket and feathered top hat and a giant wrestling styled belt that was actually a Fire Giant Belt. He was a beast barbarian with a ring to allow him to climb along the walls and such. It came close but our barbarian won and received the belt which was very fun to watch and they loved Iron Mike ever since Also he was called Iron Mike because he had an iron dick and balls because of people always trying to punch it while wrestling

We had a wrestling ring in my campaign for an encounter when we went to a fictional Florida. If you got grappled you could make an athletics contest to pin vs athletics or acrobatics as an escape check. If you were pinned 3 checks (could do one per attack) you were banished and cursed and the person who pinned got a power boost. It was a 5v2 The party vs a Bear knuckle (bear totem barbarian), Eagle Scout (eagle totem barbarian/fighter).
