Personality
** Are you a Face/Heel/Tweener Leaning Face/Tweener Leaning Heel - Tweener Leaning Face
** Favorite Match - Russian Chain Match
** Favorite Weapon - Steel Chain
** Wrestling Style - Powerhouse/Technician
** In-Ring Attire - Black tights with the word "Devastator" written down the right leg in red; black wrestling boots; black wrist/hand tape; He also wears a sleeveless black leather trench coat with the word "Devastator" written in red above a winged skull logo.
** Brief Character Bio - As a white kid growing up in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood, Jason experienced more than his fair share of bullying by wannabe gangbangers, trying to impress each other. His grandfather was a huge wrestling fan, regaling his grandson with memories of matches he watched at the Olympic Auditorium.
When Jason was old enough, he went to the matches with his grandfather and devoured as much wrestling as he could on television. This inspired Jason to stand up to the neighborhood bullies, eventually forcing them to leave him alone.
In high school, Jason lettered in football and wrestling. While Jason was in college, he inquired about training to become a pro wrestler, but found that he lacked the money to do so. His grandfather agreed to pay for his training, but only on the condition that he graduate from college. Jason readily agreed and poured himself into his studies, graduating summa cum laude in Engineering. Once he began his training, he saw that other men his size relied strictly on their size, merely battering their opponents into submission. He realized that in order to stand out, he needed to show more than just punching and kicking to impress the fans.
After a long and storied career, Devastator suffered from a massive case of burnout, losing that spark that drove him to the successes he garnered inside the ring. Having been frugal with his earnings, he retired relatively young, in his mid-thirties. But the itch to return the ring did not go away with his retirement, and in time, became too strong for him to ignore.
So when his one-time foe Goth contacted him out of the blue, he strongly considered returning, but not before thoroughly scouting the Asylum Wrestling Alliance, as he still did not fully trust the man he had faced inside the ring. But after seeing some familiar faces, and recognizing the potential in those he did not know personally, he signed on the dotted line, becoming the latest inmate in the AWA. After testing the waters, so to speak, he finally fulfilled the lifelong dream of his wife, Alicia, by bringing both herself and her brother Sergio into the AWA.
Fast forward to 2017, a year after the AWA closed its doors. Devastator has been spending his time training the next generation of superstars, including the four-time Tag Team Champions, Rebel Ink. To keep his own skills sharp, he continues to spar with his students, keeping his body in fighting shape should the itch ever return.
The itch to fight again came at the hands of his former stablemate, Gray Malone, who practically dared him to come out of retirement. Now, at the age of 46, he laces up his boots one more time, and prepares to step into the ring against his former friend.
