From an early age, Francesco knew that he wanted to be just like the superheroes he saw on tv. They were professional wrestlers such as John Cena and Rey Mysterio that really stood out to him. The way they pulled you in seemingly effortlessly just by going out there and performing to their very best. That was incredible. Francesco tried several sports growing up: kickboxing, soccer, swimming, basketball, tennis but none of those ever stuck with him as much as wrestling. He grew up in Italy where pro wrestling didnβt even crack the top 100 sports that people associated with it so the pursuit was already a giant obstacle. It wasnβt impossible though, he started at Italian Championship Wrestling which happened to only be a 15 minute drive.
Francesco debuted at 15 and for 11 years has been continuing to grow his passion. He often jokes itβs the only thing heβs βkindaβ good at. Heβs signed with NJPW as apart of United Empire and is a former 3x IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion. Heβs only 26 but is already making waves little by little. Not much is known about Akiraβs personal life so with bits from his IG, this will be tweaked a bit. When heβs not wrestling, he enjoys spending time with his mom and his brother. He also enjoys traveling as heβs always taking pictures of new sites and new cities that he wouldβve never seen if it wasnβt for his career. He goes back and forth between Italy and Japan (and sometimes America) where he is frequent in all 3 languages. Heβs a nice guy to his core but he doesnβt let his small presence be taken advantage of so he will stand up for himself if he feels like youβre out of line.
Iβll be portraying him as pansexual and I would like to base any ships on chemistry between writers and interaction.
Like I said before, Francesco is a very new character for me. Iβm not going to lie to you and say that Iβm faithful in watching New Japan but I do catch shows when I can. For the sake of the portrayal and needing to expand my wrestling taste anyway, Iβm changing that so wish me luck! Since Francesco is apart of United Empire and NJPW, of course those connections are always welcomed. Just let me know and Iβll add you below. If you see anything inaccurate, please give me grace and Iβll correct it.
PORTRAYAL BY T. Do not follow unless apart of @forbiddendoorhq or things will look very weird on your dash. This is a reused blog.
