History/Background/Career Highlights:

Born in Brazil to mixed-race parents, Rico quickly gained the reputation of 'ladies man' in his home village, mainly due to the influence of his love of old 70s and 80s American TV shows. Through these shows, Rico learnt to speak two languages- English and Love. And it's those languages, as well as his smooth accent, dashing moustache and love of the party lifestyle that gets him the ladies.

 

Oh yeah, and he can wrestle and stuff. Rico has 'paid his dues', but after a handful of appearances on OAOAST television as 'enhancement talent', Rico got sick of incompetent partners and the jobber stigma and found a partner that could help him achieve success in the OAOAST.

Jive talking (without going too OTT)

He can dance too. Yay for stereotypes in wrestling!

 

History/Background/Career Highlights:

Lucius grew up as the youngest of seven children in New Orleans. To help make ends meet at home, Lucius used his natural charisma and style to carve out a living in the more shady streets of Nawlins. But street-life eventually became unfulfilling and Soul strove to make a (slightly) more honourable living in wrestling. His agility and charisma shone through, but it wasn't until he was spotted by Rico de Janeiro that he got his break. The duo's shared love of party and the ladies, plus some slightly outdated fashion senses and hairstyles, helped them strike up an instant partnership and a formidable tag team.
