Bio: Matthew Cullen was born on 11th July 1987 into a large Catholic Irish-American family from the Houghs Neck region of the coastal city Quincy, Norfolk County, Massachusets. Despite coming from a relatively poor family; Matthew had a happy childhood, participating in various sports including boxing. After graduating from Quincy High School with average grades; Matthew developed an interest in both Professional Wrestling and Mixed Martial Arts, and began to train in both disciplines whilst working alongside his Father at the Fore River Shipyard.
Whilst in his early twenties; Matthew had begun competing on the Massachusetts independent wrestling scene as well as the more barbaric and dangerous underground cage fighting circuit, where he was beginning to garner a reputation for his chaotic, frenzied brawling style. By now, Matthew had also begun dating and later married Elizabeth (Beth), and although she supported her husband in his pursuit of success within both dangerous sports; she remained extremely anxious about his physical well being.
During a fight on the underground cage fighting circuit, he would lose by knockout after being caught in the face with a brutal knee strike. The resulting blow caused extensive fractures to Matthew’s face, including his left orbital bone which also caused some temporary loss of sight out of his left eye. A now pregnant Beth pleaded with Matthew to retire from competing, and despite his desire to return, he agreed to his wife’s plea and vowed never to step foot inside both the cage or a wrestling ring again.
Matthew’s broken face eventually healed, his eyesight soon returned and with the support of his wife, he first went to night school to improve his grades before eventually obtaining a teaching degree from Quincy College. After accepting a position as a physical education teacher at North Quincy High School, and eventually purchasing a house in the family-friendly neighbourhood of Adams Shore; life couldn’t be better for Matthew, Beth, and their three children: Kaitlyn, Matthew Jr and Liam. That was until the pandemic struck…
First, Beth’s company went out of business and she was left out of work. Then, their youngest son, Liam, was diagnosed with a heart condition that required immediate surgery. The surgery was successful, but faced with mounting medical bills and outstanding mortgage payments as well as a growing fear that they would lose the family home, Matthew decided to return to the underground cage fighting scene (without telling Beth). He quickly found his groove again, and soon, his reputation for having a chaotic, frenzied brawling offence returned. It returned so well that someone from the crowd recorded his latest victory and uploaded it to YouTube. The following day Mr Cullen was the talk of the school; the pupils thought their teacher was a superstar, but the school board vehemently disagreed and fired Matthew immediately for gross misconduct.
Beth and Matthew’s marriage is strong, and despite breaking the promise he had made to his wife about not fighting again; his intentions were good and they remained a united front. But now with no income, their family home fell into foreclosure. Having lost everything; The Cullen Family were forced to relocate to Weymouth, Norfolk County to move into Beth’s parent’s house whilst they try to rebuild their lives.
Having lost his job as a teacher, and after being unable to secure a new position in Weymouth; Matthews needs to find a way to provide an income for his family. There’s only one thing left that he can turn to…

Entrance: The powerful double bass drum of Motörhead's “Overkill” begins pulsating through the arena’s PA system, the crowd turn their heads to the stage as the guitar riff starts to play. Out marches OverKill onto the stage wearing a hoodie; the hood pulled up, his eyes fixated on his destination. He immediately power walks straight down the ramp as he makes his way towards the ring.

OverKill stops and crouches down next to the ring steps; he says a prayer to himself before signing the cross as he climbs up the steps and enters the ring, pulling down his hood as he stares intensely into the camera. He then smirks as he retreats into his corner, unzipping and removing his hoodie before commencing his final preparations ready for the match ahead.
