Layne Winters
Layne Winters is an American professional wrestler currently competing in Empire Pro Wrestling. His reputation is that of a hard-living wrestler who views it not as a business, but a sport. A creature of the independent wrestling scene, Winters' purpose is to justify past tragedies through attaining present-day glories.
History
Layne is your proto-typical "starving wrestler." He made a name for himself in a particular territory, but never earned enough money not to starve. He's seen his friends die, including his brother, he's a steroid user, and he flies into fits of rage at a moment's notice which once in a while leads to the domestic abuse of his girlfriend, Pamela. He's opposed to the idea of "gimmicks" in wrestling, and treats every match as if it's a personal battle. Often, one gets the sense that Layne does not battle other wrestlers when he's in the ring, but his own personal demons.
Winters made an immediate impact on EPW by winning the Television Title in only his fourth match with the company.
