Scott Barnett

 Scott Lucas Barnett''' (born 3rd July 1990) is an English professional wrestler. He is currently signed to PWR and EWE.

Early life & Career
In the early days of his life, Scott Barnett had begun to watch wrestling after an accidental flick through channels. What a coincidence it must've been to see the match between Mankind and the Rock, where Mankind had won his first WWF title. For those who don't know, this also happened to become the iconic day in which WCW broke it's long-lasting rating streak against the WWF.

With Greg Barnett (father) being good friends with KO Gym's Khru Bill Judd (former Muay Thai and Kickboxing world champion), he had decided to take young Scott under his wing and train him to become a lethal weapon. Training started when Scott was 11, and ended when he was 18 to follow his life-long aspiration to become a professional wrestler. Scott was not involved in any professional muay thai fights, and there was not a belt ranking system in his gym. However, he participated in the advanced classes for the last 3 years in his training.

Barnett moved to Aberdeen, Washington, where he was trained under Bryan Danielson's guidance. Barnett then started to spar and wrestle in the academy for 2 years, before moving to Calgary and take guidance under the illustrious Lance Storm. After training under experienced technicians, Barnett was ready to craft his muay thai background into a dangerous hybrid of submission wrestling and with brief knowledge of chain wrestling.

On January 5th 2012, AOW quickly signed Scott Barnett at the age of 21. He was set to make his debut on the undercard of an upcoming event, but due to complications backstage, AOW shut down for an indefinite amount of time.

After a few months of absence, Barnett showed up on week 11 of ROV's House of Hardcore, appearing as 'Fake Nanashi' in a plot against then Hardcore champion, Matt Walker. Barnett quickly revealed himself the week after, beating the champion in the main event after showcasing and executing his new finisher, the shining apprentice. This confirmed Barnett's allegance to the iEMPIRE faction, then consisting of MONROE, Nanashi, AC Arthurz and himself. Shorty after at ROV's Ultimate Revelations CPV, Scott Barnett and AC Arthurz attacked Rey Sefo in the main event, which ultimately led to him losing his opportunity at winning their respective world title. After backstage altercations and with rumours spreading, AC Arthurz announced his departure with ROV through his twitter page. Although rumours had led to believe that Barnett would follow suit, it was not yet confirmed that he announced his resignation by any source. A few weeks after this situation, ROV announced their closing down of the site, and Barnett had once become a free agent.

Shortly after, Scott looked to persue his wrestling dream in Violentia, which is brand that celebrates and glorifies the pure competitive nature of wrestling. Scott competed at Violentia's first event, Violentia I: Rise, where they announced a tournament to be taking place to crown the company's first Sovereign Supreme champion. In Scott's first match of the tournament, he went on to encounter the world renown Shane Silver. In a hard-fought bout, Scott managed to pick up the victory after debuting and finishing off Silver with a discus lariat. Scott Barnett then went to challenge Rubin Corbananananananananana, where Scott fell victim to a vicious spear which resulted in Scott being eliminated from the Violentia Rise tournament.

Still a part of the active roster in Violentia, Barnett found bright, new competition in the face of prospering brand, NGC. Scott debuted a very new look, sporting a bigger beard than usual, longer hair, and a robe in entrances. In his first appearance, he fought alongside fellow iEMPIRE faction member, Nanashi. The two made quick work of the Funky Town Express (Jive and Frank E Flo), when Nanashi pinned Frank E following a spinning cutter. The two would then go on to face Devlin DaNoose and Screech, but I barely remember that match so I'll write up moar latah.
