Martinez

Chris "A.C. Martinez" Wills, is a retired professional wrestling CAW best known for his work in the Post-World Wrestling Entertainment. He is the real-life brother of Lake-Show and the Kimberly-Estelle's real-life boyfriend. Martinez, Lake-Show and Kimberly-Estelle are the members/founders of former Post-WWE/TNA stable "Blackout."

Independent Circuit
Before the debut of Martinez, his older brother, Lake-Show (Lake at the time) started an early career with Deep South Wrestling around April of 2010. Months later, Martinez (simply Chris at the time) joined the fed and began tag teaming alongside his brother. Chris & Lake became a balanced tag team at the time and founded the name Brotherhood for their new alliance. For a while, the two jobbed to some of the more popular stars of the Indy federation. Eventually, they came across a young woman around their age who would later become their manager, Kimberly-Estelle. Estelle managed the duo and joined in their every match at ringside. Several months after forming Brotherhood, the trio parted ways with the circuit and searched to move on together in a more larger promotion.

Blackout (2010-2011)
On August 21st of 2010, along with his team members, Lake-Show & Estelle, Chris RayStorm made his debut in the WWE appearing on the RAW brand with his team. He began wrestling under his ring name Martinez. The trio make their debut as a stable named Blackout. Martinez, much like Estelle, was more laid-back and easy going with lack of mic skills, where-as Lake-Show was more charismatic and energetic whenever it came to him talking on the mic. Estelle was the manager of both boys in Blackout. She also fought alongside them in Intergender Tag Team Matches.

Their first match was against William Regal & Vladimir Kozlov, which they got over with the help of Estelle. Estelle jumped on the apron and argued with the referee, distracting him from the match. While the ref was distracted, Regal & Lake-Show were down on the mat. Martinez clipped Kozlov from the apron and hit him with a small pipe, then ran in and hit the Gamebreaker on Regal. He quickly dragged his brother in over Regal for the pinfall and ran back to the apron. With the referees view obstructed due to Estelle, he slid to count the pin to a 3-count, marking the debut win and heel debut of Blackout.

Split & Hiatus (2012)
After Estelle dropped the Divas Championship, things became unsteady among the brothers of Blackout. At Elimination Chamber 2012, Blackout put their Unified Tag Team Titles on the Line against Air Bourne (Rey Mysterio & Evan Bourne) in a normal tag team match. Hoping to defend their titles and become 3-Time Tag Team Champions together, Blackout lost in a tough effort to become victors. After Estelle was banned from ringside, Martinez got distracted by taking his attention off of Mysterio and focusing on the leaving Estelle. Lake-Show blind-tagged himself in, causing Martinez to argue with him as to why he tagged himself in. Mysterio tagged in Evan Bourne, who kicked Martinez out of the ring and gave a hurricanrana to Lake-Show. Bourne got the pinfall and won the titles with Mysterio. After the match, Martinez got in the ring to help his brother up, but he was confronted by him and engaged into an altercation. Lake-Show pushed his brother back, however, Martinez tried to step up to his older brother; only to be clotheslined by Lake-Show. Lake-Show continued the assault on his brother until Estelle came to Martinez' help. The enraged Lake-Show shoved her through the ropes and outside of the ring, then walking backstage.

The next night on RAW during a backstage interview, Lake-Show told Josh Matthews, "Blackout... man we DONE!" then walking out. On the same night, Mr. McMahon announced the main event for next week's RAW: A brother vs. brother match (Lake-Show vs. Martinez) with Estelle as the special guest referee. The following week on RAW in a backstage segment, the frustrated Martinez confronted his brother, with Estelle stuck in the middle of the argument. Martinez shoved his brother before the confrontation, asking him why he beat him down after their title defense. Lake-Show responded, saying there was no explanation why seeing as he believed he was the one who didn't cayuse them to lose the titles in the first place. The brothers kept arguing, disagreeing and fighting back and forth. Lake-Show noted, "I'm the one who brought you two into this company! Hell, I'm your older brother, Chris! If it wasn't for me, your ass wouldn't have interest in wrestling whatsoever!" Martinez shoved Lake-Show down to the floor and proceeded to walk off. At the moment Estelle proceeded to leave with him, Lake-Show got up and pushed her (in an attempt to knock down his brother.) Martinez got back up angrily and speared his own brother, proceeding to beat him down. Estelle finally got the strength to stand up and separate the two from fighting. Lake-Show demanded that Estelle take his side in the match, while Martinez demanded that she take his.

Later that same evening, the two brothers competed against each other in a normal match. Estelle was an impartial official for the most part, breaking up submissions near ropes and using the rules that of a Senior Referee follow. Lake-Show attempted to achieve a cheap victory by pinning Martinez with his legs propped up on the ropes. Estelle counted a very close near 3 fall, but when she looked over and saw Lake-Show using the ropes for leverage, she immediately stopped the count. Lake-Show argued with Estelle, asking why the hell she stopped the count. After explaining why, he slapped her across the face, receiving instant heat from the crowd. She signaled for the bell to ring, resulting in a disqualification for Lake-Show and automatic win for Martinez. Estelle responded by attacking Lake-Show, kneeing him in the gut and trying to set him up for the Texan Destroyer, turning face in the process. However, Lake-Show reversed it and threw her outside of the ring. Before Lake-Show could turn his back, Martinez got back up and clotheslined his brother, resulting in a face turn for him as well. After assaulting his older brother, Martinez helped Estelle up and helped her backstage.

Before the show closed that evening, Mr. McMahon saw that the feud was simply going nowhere. As a result, he set up a match for Wrestlemania 27: Martinez vs. Lake-Show in a Street Fight, with Estelle acting as the special guest enforcer. At Wrestlemania 27, Martinez lost to Lake-Show. Before the feud was over, Mr. McMahon decided to invoke Martinez' rematch clause, where the loser gets fired from the WWE (If Martinez lost, him and Estelle would leave; if Lake-Show lost, only he would be forced to leave.) The match was written down as a Last Man Standing match a Backlash. At Backlash 2010, Lake-Show drove his brother through two tables with a ladder placed on top of him. At the moment the referee began to count to '10,' Estelle came through the crowd and slid in the ring, attacking Lake-Show with a steel trash can. Estelle quickly helped Martinez off of the table, as the referee counted to ten and declared Martinez the winner of the match. The feud was set to be extended due to interference by Estelle. However, Lake-Show left the company for unknown reasons and did not reappear in the WWE until several years later.

Return, Feud with Chris Jericho & Relationship with Estelle (2013-2015)
Years following their unknown departure, Martinez & Estelle returned to the WWE. They redebuted on the RAW brand, still heroes, now with the Blackout name completely dropped. Martinez used his real-life character as a gimmick, an easy-going, laid back superstar. Estelle returned with her reallife character as a gimmick: that of a hardcore good-hearted rocker-skater chick, which consisted of her briefly playing an electric guitar on her way to the ring. Now a hero, she did not use her electric guitar as a weapon. Estelle & Martinez entered an on-screen relationship; a love angle that began when Martinez ran in to save Estelle from being attacked by Chris Jericho & Beth Phoenix. The angle took place after Estelle lost to Beth Phoenix in a submission match, tapping out to Beth's Glam Slam. Chris Jericho came out to the ring and proceeded to lock the falled Estelle into the Liontamer. Before he could roll her over completely, Martinez ran into the ring and speared Jericho off of Estelle, then proceeding to beat him down outside of the ring. As Martinez persistently beat down Jericho, two referees tried to pull him off while Beth yelled to the outside of the ring. Distracted by Jericho's beatdown, Estelle snooped up behind The Glamazon and nailed her with a new move. Dubbed by Estelle as "," it was a swinging neckbreaker. However, everyone believed the move was botched due to this being the debut performance of her new finisher, along with the fact that she held her head in pain afterwards. This stared a new feud with the new face Martinez & Estelle (M.T.E.S.T.) and the heel Glamazon & Jericho. As part of their love angle, M.T.E.S.T. were put in an extreme, dark [feud] against their rivals. Aside from the two being involved in adult situations backstage and in the ring, M.T.E.S.T. feuded with Jericho & Beth Phoenix in a more extreme manner.

Over the course of several months, Martinez & Estelle's relationship stirred up controversy and grew more intense down the road. After a mixed tag team match against Chris Masters & Eve Torres, Vince McMahon (heel a the time) came out told Martinez to kiss his girlfriend goodbye - as announced that next week, Martinez would tea up with Beth Phoenix to compete against Chris Jericho & Estelle in a NO-DQ Mixed Tag Match. M.T.E.S.T. didn't agree with the offer and had not wanted their relationship to come to an end. Showing their signs of anger, Martinez kneed his boss and set him up for his signature In The Hole DDT. Things began to get interesting once the couple got a pop. Estelle got her electric guitar from outside of the ring and placed it on the canvas. Martinez then drove McMahon's head straight into Estelle's electric guitar. The couple began to leave the arena but at the moment they walked up to the stage, Vince McMahon announced their next match with a stipulation added - Martinez & Estelle vs. Jericho & Phoenix vs. Masters & Eve in a Triple Threat Mixed Tag Team Match. The stipulation was, if Martinez or Estelle used their finisher and lost the match, then they must break up the following week on live TV.

The following week on RAW, M.T.E.S.T. fought in their triple threat tag match. M.T.E.S.T. won the match when the referee's view was obstructed, allowing Estelle to strike Jericho with her signature guitar and drag Martinez over Jericho for the fall. The referee counted a slow 3-count. After the match, Vince McMahon appeared on the Titantron. He explained how he was pleased with the match as well as the outcome, but due to use of a foreign object, he forced Martinez to break up with Estelle. Martinez spoke, saying it was over, as Estelle agreed that they would move on. The segment went by pretty quickly and well planned. Though M.T.E.S.T.'s kayfabe relationship ended, the two remained a close mixed tag team as well as an actual couple in real-life.

After their on-screen relationship, Estelle received a push for the Divas Championship, winning and making her a three-time Divas Champion. Martinez was heavily pushed for a shot at the Intercontinental Title, despite it being at the bottom of the championships. He won however.

Reunion of Blackout & Departure (2016)
On a Monday Night episode of RAW, Martinez was put in a tag team match with John Cena against his long-time rival Chris Jericho and Randy Orton. After the duo lost the match, Jericho & Orton proceeded to attack Martinez & Cena. Moments later, Martinez' brother Lake-Show would make a face-turn, by returning to RAW and saving his younger brother & John Cena. Lake-Show helped his brother up and rose his arm in victory as Cena hit Orton with the F-U on a fallen Jericho. The three heroes stood in the ring, raising their arms in victory as Estelle cheered them, following loud pops from the crowd. That same night, Lake-Show was interviewed backstage. After his long hiatus, he explained that this was the final time he would turn his back on his younger brother. Lake-Show then announced that Blackout would make a return and in the main event tonight, Blackout (Martinez, Lake-Show, John Cena & Estelle) would compete in an 8-person intergender tag team match against Chris Jericho, Jack Swagger, Randy Orton & Beth Phoenix. Later that night, Blackout won their first match as a team in five years.

Following the months after Lake-Show's return, Blackout's appearances in the WWE became sporadic. Their last appearance was shortly after Summerslam 2020. On August 2020, the night after Summerslam, Blackout returned near the end of RAW to face their rivals one more time in a normal 6-person intergender tag team match. While not confirmed, this match was listed as a blow off. Blackout was unsuccessful and lost their first match in several months. The trio was set to appear on Smackdown the same week to possibly prolong their rivalry, but never showed up for unknown reasons.

On August 27, Martinez, Lake-Show, & Estelle left the company, ending their 7 year run with the WWE. Ironically, they were all released from their WWE contracts the following day.
