Theme: 'Recapturing the Vibe RESTRUNG' by Hilltop Hoods
Entrance: "The arena hits darkness. Than the lights slowly come back on dimmly, in blue. The sounds of violins, the chello, flute, triangle and drums can be heard as we hear.... "It's the next chapter... Where's all my head at?" as "Recapturing the vibe RESTRUNG" by The Hilltop Hoods hits. From the back walks out Marcus Payton in his blue trunks and big black boots. His wrists are taped and he wears knee pads and albow pads. Standing in the middle of the top stage area, he crosses his arms accross his chest in a "X" shape, and then releases it, extending his arms out on both sides signifying the freedom within. The fans give him a lukewarm reaction, nothing more than he currently deserves and nothing less than what he expects. Walking down the ramp, showing no emotion whatsoever, he slides in under the bottom rope and swiftly jumps to his feet. Not even bothering to pose or taunt the fans, he tests the ropes for their durability as he awaits his opponent."

He lost his mother in his mid-teens which broguht with it a lot of committment and opening up issues. Has trained specifically in Japan, so works a very stiff match. Currently dates Reagan Clyde.
