- A Star is Born
On the 25th of December, 1981, in a hospital somewhere in Paris, a child was born to a loving couple named Henri and Clarisse LeBlanc. Little
did they know, their child wold grow up to be the symbol of French culture, holding aristocratic charm, a desire for the ladies and a hatred of everything American. They named their child Claude after Henri's father, who died in the war. The two raised Claude well and at the age of eight, sent him to a boarding school in Boardeaux.
In Every Family There is a Bastard
Claude spent the next 8 years of his life in Boardeaux at the "French Academy for Young Boys" Boarding School where he was aptly named Claude LeBâtard, translated into English as Claude the bastard. His boarding school associates gave him this name as he was known to be extremely arrogant, basking in French culture without a thought for anyone but himself. Only taking time out to take walks in the streets and charm the girls of the same age. Claude was taught to wrestle in the Academy aswell as numerous academic subjects. Excelling at all of his tasks Claude would have no problem finding a career in life. On his 16th birthday Claude returned home to his parents no longer a young boy, but an extravigant french man.
And So it Begins
When Claude returned home his next task was to find work, and with all his skills he did so very easily. His first job was working in a kitchen. The job was advertised as an assistant chef which Claude, with his great culinary skills, gladly filled the vaccancy. However all Claude found himself doing was washing dishes, brushing up and on occasions, chasing mice out of the kitchen. Claude quit after a month and once again set out to find work. Seeing a poster in a shop window about a small wrestling federation Claude eagerly went along for try outs. On arrival it was painfully obvious a boy of 16 was going to struggle to make the cut. Claude was pitted against a 19 year old male and told to gain entry to the group he would have to pin the man. Without hesitation Claude used all the techniques he had learned in the Academy and with in minutes had the man on the floor and a contract with a small federation. This was to be but the beginning of his career.
Travelling the Country
Claude travelled around France to numerous cities, wrestling for small crowds in even smaller arenas. But this was his pasison, to be the alpha male of French life. Claude made quite a name for himself and shortly after turning 19 was signed up to a major french wrestling federation. Although perahps not as big as any english or american federation, it was large by french standards. Claude found himself fighting top french competitors and being cheered by huge crowds. In his spare time he would embrace all french aspects of life, but maily he would embrace his good lookks and charm the ladies. This impacted his career as he would often be diistracted in a match by a beautiful lady in the crowd, or turn up late for a match after "helping a woman with her shopping" as he once put it.
Laziness is the Killer of Dreams
With Claude constantly embracing French culture, out partying, eating, drinking, he became lazy and a few months before his 21 birthday was released from his wrestling contract for refusing to train. Claude was out of a job, but he did not seem affected. Instead, he used the free time to do more pleasurable things in life by his standards. But unfortunately, life around him was not going so well. A die hard Claude fan was so disappointed and possesed by Claude leaving wrestling that he infact attacked Claude. Claude managed to fight him off before being spat at by the man. This was when Claude realised he was not the french sex symbol he needed to be. Only being at the top of hs game would allow him to keep his women and fans. And so Claude relinquished his party hard life style and began training every day in solitary.
Everyone Deserves a Second Chance
After seeind Claude's new found dedication to his training Claude's federation agreed to take him back on a 6 month trial period. During this period Claude out performed his past performances. Exceeding everyones expectation and going undefeated for the entire 6 months. The federation then signed him up for another year. Claude continued his training regieme but never forgot the culture of his people always making a small amount of time for fun and excitement. Over the next few years Claude made a huge name for himself in France. He was the talk of every wrestling fan.
European Stardom
On Claude, now aged 25, had been wrestling for the same major federation for the last 6 years, and it was beginning to lead to stardom in the whole of Europe. The fed began to expand and began touring all across Europe picking up stars along the way. Claude's arrogance and charm were legendary. He was the sterotype people put to the French. Although so popular his arrogance made him numerous enemies inside the federation aswell as those classic fans booing his heel like status. But Claude hade made it big, his name in lights in numerous major european countries. But no federation would ever compare to a proffesional wrestling federation in the United States. These were the biggest of the big. It was most peoples dream to make it to an American televised federation.
Anti Americanism
Claude was aware that to make his name known to everyone in the world he would have to join a televised federation in America, but his arrogance refused to give in and he would not submit to American culture. He'd heard so much about it, and he despised it. It was a mockery of everything he stood for. But sacrifices have to be made for ones dream to come true. After realising this, in late 2009 Claude would travelled to the United States of America to fulfill his dream. But still it would not come easily. The standard of wrestling was much higher again in America. Claude had to exceed all his previous performances in try outs for wrestling federations.
A Break Into Show Business
In late february Claude signed a contract with Alpha Championship Wrestling and would finally be able to make his name known around the world. But where would his career go from here? No, after winning his first 2 matches he disappeared off the wrestling scene and was unheard of for the next 6 months.
Championship Glory
In November, at ACW's pay-per-view, Samhain, Claude won the Entertainment Championship in a fatal four way match. This was only first checkpoint in a list of goals for Claude to achieve. However, Claude was to be the last Entertainment Champion as ACW went through numerous problems and a crippling lack of viewers which sent the compant bust.
The Story Continues
Now Claude looks to make an imact in the Kingdom of Pride, and Claude has pleant of pride. Bringing his small fan base and large base of haters with him, Claude looks to win championship gold in KoP...
