WRESTLING INFORMATION
-------------------------------------------------
Wrestling Style: All-Rounder (Focus on Jade Court Puroroesu & European Catch)

Due to his training under his (in)famous uncle Marcus and his expanded training under Peter Graves, Gabe wrestles a very physical, high-impact, and stiff style which is full of strikes, suplexes, and submission holds that he can quickly hit or transition into, easily switching a full blown bridging suplex into a grapevined heel hook submission hold in a few seconds.

Gabe is not known for flashy or high energy types of moves, so if and when he goes to the top rope is when people tend to take heed to the fact that Gabe has officially decided to stop “being kind” to his opponents.

Strengths:
-1. Experience: Out of the three “core” members of the Phantom Troupe, Gabe has the most in-ring experience having been at things for almost two decades in the ring and as such, he has built up quite the varied arsenal that allows him to showcase his exact range of vicious skills.

-2.

Weaknesses:
-1. “Working Snug”: Gabe, much like his uncle Marcus, has a tendency to “work snug” which means that he prefers to get in good and close where he can do the most damage to his opponent with savage strikes and very tight submission holds held almost to the point where he is DQ'd for not breaking the hold.

-2. “Put some funking respect on *that*..: Gabe has put a lot of years and hard work into his career and while he has not exactly been a “mainstream” name like most of the people that he's either trained or worked with over the past almost twenty years, Gabe still does not take kindly to being disrespected by anyone and will actually do something about it.

Biography:
Born while his family was living in England and the middle child of two professional wrestlers, not much is known about Gabe's childhood other than he was a musical prodigy and had a vocal range along the lines of his heavy metal idols in Lemmy and James Hetfield, Gabe wanted to become a musician and not follow his parents into professional wrestling-despite him being apart of the larger dynasty of professional wrestlers-and he was a member of a couple of smaller local metal bands and even had a once in a lifetime experience as the band that he was in, Mystik Spiral, opened for Valerian's Garden (who's lead singer was the wife of CSWA wrestling legend in “Total Elimination” Eli Flair interestingly enough) when the Garden Garden started its last major US tour.

Despite everything, Gabe eventually gave into the temptation of curiosity and discovered that he was quite talented as a professional wrestler-with some even viewing him in the same league of striker as his more (in)famous uncle, Marcus Senior, with Gabe eventually starting his training at his uncle's school in Cameron North Carolina, the “Dojo”, and he debuted a few short months later in the International Championship Wrestling Alliance where he was instantly put into a program with Maverick Factory graduate Jericho Morton where he would become one of the very first holders of the newly created ICWA NEVER Openweight championship.

After six months, Gabe found himself leaving the ICWA for the Frontier Wrestling Alliance as he was recruited (along with Jericho Morton) into Peter Graves’ new “Reign of Terror” faction as the group's enforcer as Graves himself would take the youngest (at the time) Marik under his wing and help expand on his in-ring skills further, smoothing out the rough edges and allowing Gabe to the ability to do more in the ring than he had previously been able to in the ICWA with Graves eventually picking Gabe to be his regular tag team partner and following their team's win at that year's Summit Games (the FWA was apart of the much larger Summit Wrestling Alliance organization), it was at this time that Gabe started to work with the man then known as “Blake Windham”, with both men earning tag team titles across the world.

Over the course of the next three years, Gabe would travel the world and win multiple championships, but eventually Gabe would find himself in his cousin Devon's infamous “Dominion” stable in the Universal Wrestling Corporation, even being apart of one of two teams to bring the NeWA's legendary Crockett Cup into the group's vast trophy collection before the bad times happened and during a match for the UWC Global Heavyweight championship, Dante tore both of his quadriceps muscles, which practically ended his in-ring career for quite some time.

During his time away from the ring, Gabe worked hard to recover from his injury, however his recovery time was doubled due to him being in a car wreck just on the onset of the global pandemic which shut down the entire world for a time, but while the rest of the world simply sat on its collective asses-Gabe busted his ass twice as hard to get ready for an eventual return to the ring, but following his long-awaited return to the ring, Gabe decided to make his formal return under his actual name which lead to the world first meeting the “Revenant” Gabriel Marik in Global Championship Wrestling before eventually joining SCW.
