====IN CHARACTER VITALS====
Tag Team Name: Pandæmoniom
Members: David Hunter and Holden Ross
Character Base Pic: David - Adam Cole, Holden - Brody King
Combined Weight: 572 lbs. (David - 247, Holden - 325)
Crowd Alignment: Heel
====BIOGRAPHY====
They started as rivals in the Underground Division. David beat Holden to become King of the Underground, and despite having vast differences at the time, they managed to come together under one ideology: show why they're the best. They've taken out many opponents together, but have yet to solidify themselves as a tag team. They introduced custom Tag Team Championships that David Hunter used with his own money in order to try and make a statement. Unfortunately, Holden went down with some personal issues, leaving David left to struggle.
After a few months of floundering for titles and the Icemann Tournament, and teaming with Kyle Shane, David made a mark for himself by taking out two opponents in one: Sicko and Kyle himself. At the next show, Return to Glory, Holden returned, posing as a fan in order to help attack Dominator, who had just lost his North American Championship to David. They reestablished themselves again at the end of the night, attacking Elijah Dixon in the parking lot.
After David left PCW, the two of them didn't interact much until joining CU:LT together a few later. Fate brought them back together and they're looking to prove why they're the best.
====ENTRANCE===
Entrance Song: “Air Raid Sirens” transitioned into "The Night" by Aurelio Voltaire
Entrance Description: The lights in the arena go out. After a few seconds of the crowd hushing themselves, the sounds of air raid sirens play on the PA.
After a few moments of that, "The Night" by Aurelio Voltaire starts blaring on the PA speakers. As the guitar continues to build up and the violins join in, David Hunter comes out with a single spotlight on him. He steps to the stage, arms spread, chest exposed. He looks around at the crowd, breathing deeply and ready for what's to come, but otherwise focused on the ring in front of him. He cracks his wrist, neck, and knuckles, glancing around at the crowd before him.
As the violin starts to pick up, David suddenly turns around.
The lights return to normal as Holden strolls out from the back. As he walks up alongside David, the two head bump fists. David turns around and the two of them begin the trek to the ring. The duo ignore any fans attempting to high-five or otherwise get in their good favor.
The duo hit ringside and David reaches up to grab the middle rope. He pulls himself up onto the apron, but quickly hops to the top rope. He points straight at the hard camera. During this, Holden crawls in under the bottom rope. David steps inside the ring, staying on the middle rope. He walks over towards the middle, staring straight at the hard camera. After making sure his balance is alright, he raises a clenched fist in the air. Holden, ever simplistic yet quite intimidating, looms next to him, standing straight and staring strong.

====STRATEGY====
Favorite match(es): Hardcore Rules (Street Fight/No Holds Barred), Last Man Standing
Least Favorite Match(es): Ladder Match, Multi-Team Matches (More than two)
Strengths: 1. Experience - As the only active tag team in PCW, they've had time to train and get to know each other outside of the ring. This experience will come into play as they know what the other will do, both as a tag team partner and former opponent.
2. Hard Hitting and a Powerhouse - David's strikes and focus on the head is notable, but if you add that already existing damage to the power of Holden, these two will hit anybody harder and faster than they can blink.
3. Stamina - Two young guys teaming together is a recipe for potential, but when you add it in with two guys who are trained to take damage and go the distance, you have a recipe for greatness.
Weaknesses: 1. Ego - David is well known as one of the most arrogant guys on the roster. Holden might not be as vocal about it, but he knows his shit don't stink. They might be a tag team, but it'd a be fool's errand to imagine these two egos would never get in the way of each other.
2. Hard Hitting and a Powerhouse - Much like in their singles' career, their strength is also a weakness. They will put everything into anything they do. While that could net them a weak opponent, it could also net them a weakened body. The more they hit, the harder they hit, the more powerful they maneuver, the more damage they do to themselves.
3. Their Attitudes - Solo, both these guys don't care about what anybody else thinks. Together, that attitude quadruples. They will say things that will piss of the wrong people at times and that means more enemies to try and conquer.
4. Their Past - Both men have had a rough past. Both men have their own demons. Both men have trauma. Once it's brought up, a lot of what they're good at goes out the window for either pure anger or a distracted mind.
