Appearance:
Entrance Music: “Hate Me Know” – Nas
Entrance: Nas' "Hate Me Now" begins to play as green lights illuminate smoke rising from the entrance way. The Mainstreamer appears on the ramp flanked by >\/< and Waldo and holds his arms out wide. The green illuminated smoke starts filtering down the ramp as The Mainstreamer walks slowly down the ramp as The Mainstreamer starts moving towards the ring with >\/< and Waldo walking behind him pumping up the crowd.. The Mainstreamer acknowledges a few fans and reaches the ring. He climbs the steps to the ring as he awaits the start of the match.
Fighting Style: The Mainstreamer developed a lot of speed from his boxing roots, and has adapted his style as such. Mainstreamer isn't a typical highflier or technical wrestler, but is able to develop elements of both into his style. He also incorporates power moves into his move set due to his training under his mentor Wafer, but his size prevents this from being very effective on much largerlarger opponents. He also incorporates a lot of punches early in the match to take full advantage of his boing background. The Mainstreamer as learned to take a beating as well, and usually takes an excessive amount of punishment finding a spot to counter his opponent. This has made him much harder to pin and submit than most wretlers, but made him much more prone to long, damaging assaults from his opponents. Knowing this, The Mainstreamer frequently tries to overwhelm his opponent with speed to avoid a punishing offensive assault from his opponent.

The Mainstreamer has known he was a homosexual since puberty. The Mainstreamer went out of the way to kept it hidden until 2015, when Eden Morgan and Ichabod discovered unsent letters addressed to his mentor Wafer and long time rival Vain.
The Mainstreamer also frequently parodies his opponents and rivals, and occasionally his friends.
The Mainstreamer states five major rivalries from his past have defined his legacy today.
PKA - Netlink Wrestling Organization, UGWC - These two men battled a large number of times for the Netlink World Title. PKA was the first man to recognize The Mainstreamer's individual skill past that of his famous mentor.
Ichabod - Netlink Wrestling Organization, IPWF2, UPW, World Online Wrestling, Headstrong Wrestling - Ichabod is a first cousin to The Mainstreamer's mentor Wafer. Ichabod often looked over The Mainstreamer until he broke away from the shadow cast by Wafer. The Mainstreamer and Ichabod proved to be the master of mind games, toeing off until meeting in the Run of the Mill which The Mainstreamer was able to win after tricking Ichabod into thinking he had murdered Wafer.
Sweet Cheapshots - Netlink Wrestling Organization - After his wars with PKA and Ichabod, The Mainstreamer had finally established himself and was able to calm down and lead Netlink Wrestling for a long time. Towards the end of the federations life, questions were raised about the greatest in Netlink history. Sweet Cheapshots, a once dominant Netlink World Champion had returned to win the Netlink Tag Titles with The Mainstreamer. Both men had defined the two major generations of Netlink, and were slated to compete for The Mainstreamer's Netlink World title at Netlinks biggest show, dedicated to his mentor, at Wafermania. After an intense battle, Sweet Cheapshots came out the victor. The Mainstreamer states his only regret was never getting to wrestle him again.
Taurus Capone - Headstrong Wrestling - Taurus Capone is an enigma amongst The Mainstreamer's list of rivals, as they've only had minor in-ring confrontations. The Mainstreamer's HSW debut came as he joined TC's Playa's Club, but quickly turned on them to join long time friend Ichabod. During this time, there was a changing of the guard in HSW, as the Covenant was beginning to leave HSW and at one point vacated the HSW title. The Mainstreamer quickly found himself as co-number one contender to the vacant HSW title, but faced Johnny Kae instead of Taurus Capone. The Mainstreamer went on to defend the HSW title until losing it to Vain, never getting to face Taurus Capone. The Mainstreamer has stated the Vain, himself, and Taurus Capone made the post-Covenant era of HSW, and the fact that he never faced TC one-on-one for the title was a loss for the wrestling World.
Alan 'Vain' Wallace - Headstrong Wrestling, UGWC - Towards the end of HSW's first run, Vain and The Mainstreamer had shown to be the two biggest names in the company. Vain earned the chance to face The Mainstreamer for his HSW World Title at Global Domination. The two went into the match as respected rivals. Days before the match, The Mainstreamer found the his mentor Wafer had lost his life. The Mainstreamer planned to dedicate the match to Wafer. After winning the match cleanly, Vain showed any side of respect he'd ever had for The Mainstreamer was a façade and attacked The Mainstreamer, running The Mainstreamer's chance to dedicate the match to his fallen mentor. Before he could get his retribution, HSW closed. The Mainstreamer returned to HSW on reopening and quickly won the HSW World Title once again and waited for Vain to appear. He never did. This drove The Mainstreamer into seclusion. After 6 years of dealing with feeling that he at one time had for both Vain and Wafer, The Mainstreamer tracked down Vain at UGWC and joined the roster as Holden Orson, and waited for a time to make himself known. After watching Vain stay stagnant, The Mainstreamer used a portion of his purse to GM a show and made himself known to Vain. Shortly there after, he won the number one contender ship for the Cross-Hemisphere Title and challenged Vain, the current CH champion Red Fusion, and three others to meet him in the Run of the Mill. The match came down to The Mainstreamer and Vain, but after interference from PKA, Vain walked out the victor and Cross Hemisphere champion. This seemed to spark a light in Vain who began to ascend quickly up the ladder and within a couple of months, became the UGWC World Champion, after vacating the Cross Hemisphere Championship for the opportunity. On the night of his title win, The Mainstreamer and Dave Rydell (formerly Red Fusion) defeated Vain and his tag team partner for the UGWC cooperative Titles. Eventually, the UGWC stars aligned and The Mainstreamer challenged Vain in three UGWC World Title Matches in 2015. In some of the most competitive World Title matches in UGWC history, The Mainstreamer still was unable to conquer Vain, failing in all tree title attempts. Before the last match, The Mainstreamer vowed to not challenge Vain for his title again if he was not successful. After failing in his attempt in that match, The Mainstreamer abruptly left the World Title scene to team with >\/<.
