Kenshin

Kenshin (born November 12, 1982) is a CAW, currently working for Terrordome Championship Wrestling Asterisk (TCW*).

Backstory
Kenshin began his career working in various independent federations under the name of Hideki Hakubi. Shortly thereafter, he changed his name to Kenshin. He moved overseas to America to work for a developmental league for a now-defunct organization.

After getting pushed to the main roster of the defunct fed (known as Wildcat Pro Wrestling), Kenshin underwent a gimmick change in order to stand out from the majority of the roster. As the redubbed Oscuro Kenshin, he possessed a purple skin tone, tattoos changing from black to white, a white mask with black trim, purple animal eyes and ears. To look even more bizarre, he eventually grew dreads to go with the gimmick. No one, not even the creator of the gimmick himself, knew what Oscuro was going for looking like this. Apparently the fans enjoyed it, seeing as he grew more popular throughout his tenure.

Ultimately, Oscuro grew tired of the gimmick and wanted to be taken seriously for his in-ring talent, not for his odd appearance. Under a heel gimmick that was more like his normal self, Kenshin went on to win WPW's World title two more time before its demise.

Terrordome Championship Wrestling Asterisk (TCW*)
Season One

When TCW* began, Kenshin was one of three people to receive an opportunity to become its first Intercontinental Champion. On October 22nd, he was lucky enough to win the ladder match at *1: Fight The Hedges against AKI-Man and B.B. Disco. Teaming up with Darren Tate, Kenshin & Tate entered a four-team mini-tournament to crown the first ever TCW* World Tag Team Champions. They were successful in the first round, defeating Racky Joe and Trece Alvarez of the One Dumb-Ax Nation. The final round took place at*2: Sports Talk Wrasslin'. That night in buffalo, Kenshin & Tate fighting the Honkies of Destruction's Dwayne Matthews & The Dark Star became match of the night. Unfortunately, the match is unable to be seen in its entirety. Kenshin became a double champion that night with their new tag titles.

At *3: Like Tears In Rain, in his first defense, Kenshin had a good Match of The Year canidate, defeating B.B. Disco. On the next show, Viva La Banshee, Kenshin and Darren Tate were unsuccessful in their first defense of the Tag Team Titles in the "Chester Rumble". The Intercontinental Champ suffered his first clean pinfall defeat of that season to TAKA Michinoku, giving Chaotic EVIL the tag team championships.

Upset, Kenshin wanted to prove that his loss to TAKA was a fluke. Conviniently, he was drawn to face the former member of Kaientai in the first round of the Fists of Iron Tournament, the Intercontinental title on the line as well. It can be said that the match was a landslide victory as Kenshin moved on the semi-finals. It was a much more hard-fought match, but Kenshin fell short to Hijo Del Reyes (who went on to win the tournament) in a bout which featured interference from Chyna and Bryan Christopher. Three weeks later, at Scorched Earth, Kenshin & Tate enacted their rematch clause for Chaotic EVIL's Tag Titles, with an extra stipulation being that if Kenshin was pinned, he would lose the Intercontinental gold. EVIL would win, but it was Darren Tate who was pinned.

At *8: Debacle In Deutschland, Kenshin stepped into Germany offering an open challenge to the people of Berlin for his prized second-tier championship. The challenge was answered by Berlin-born rookie Ethan Sander, who gave Kenshin one of his toughest defenses for the gold before just coming up short to the Full Moon Bomb. Several days later, Kenshin arrived at the office of Commissioner Phil Ken Sebben to relinquish the title he loved and held for the majority of the inagural season to hunt the TCW* World Championship. He was given his opportunity along with The Dark Star and Hijo Del Reyes to challenge Rocky Blade in a TLC Match for the World Title in Tokyo at *X: ICHIBAN. In what was considered TCW*s Match of The Year, Kenshin was within an eyelash taking down the gold before being chokelslammed off the ladder straight down to the mat by The Dark Star. Blade took advantage of the opportunity and successfully retained the World Championship.

Season Two

Kenshin was given a second chance to become the fed's first Triple Crown Champion when he fought Rocky Blade one-on-one in Los Angeles at *11: Mega Drive. Kenshin was successful in this accolade after pinning the two-time champion with a floatover DDT. His first defense was at*13: Outcry From Outworld, when he defeated one of the representatives of the War Games Tournament Winners, Trece Alvarez. Afterwards, Blade jumped the barricade dressed as a druid and speared him while Kenshin was celebrated. It was then announced that Kenshin will defend the World Championship against Rocky Blade in a two out of three falls match at *14: Violence For The Sake of Violence. Kenshin was sweeped in the contest 2-0. He would also lose his last chance at the World Title in a steel cage match at *XV: Fists of Iron: The New Challengers. In an act of revenge, Kenshin teamed up once again with then-Mpire Champion Darren Tate to seek Blade's other championship, the TCW* World Tag Team Championship. After jumping Blade & Roderick while they were celebrating a successful title defense, the match was made for TCW* 16: Imminent Threat. Rocky was pulled from the match due to being in the main event that night and was replaced by Billy Yank. Kenshin brought home the gold after connecting with the Boot-To-Head Technique on Roderick. The first Tag Title defense took place at *17: Casino Royale, when Kenshin & Tate defeated Zane Ulmeyda and Rouroni Mutoh. Later that night, Rocky Blade lost the world title in a ten-man battle royal to Nappa, making Kenshin eligible to compete for the World Championship once more. When A Clean Burning Hell arrived, Kenshin & Tate once again successfully defended their Tag Team belts, defeating The One Dumb-Ax Nation. Later that night, during the main event of Nappa facing Blade, Kenshin laid out the #1 Contender with a steel chair while the ref was unconscious. He removed his jacket to reveal a referee's shirt to count the pin for Nappa's victory.
