-------------Wrestler Info-------------
Wrestler's name: Owen McConnaigh
Nickname(s): The European Ring General, Mister Submission, The Irish Wolfhound
Gimmick: The youngest son of the McConnaigh family, a world-famous Irish wrestling family. Is the technical genius of the brothers, and considers himself a wrestling purist so he refuses to cheat during matches.
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 253 lbs.
Hometown: County Wicklow, Ireland
Alignment: Face
Pic Base: Sean Patrick Flanery
Appearance/Attire: As stated, Owen is not a 'little' brother by any means, he is a 'younger' brother. Although he's a sight shorter than his brother Finn, he is definetly built with a broad, muscular frame. He has short, styled hair that is naturally brown but dyed blonde, the roots brown once again thanks to the dye fading, and his face showcases a constant Irish smile accentuated by a styled soul patch sitting on his chin, and bright blue eyes. Owen now sports a tattoo on his right pectoral muscle (where his heart is) of the McConnaigh Coat of Arms-- A green shield with orange and white checkerboard patterns that has an Irish Wolfhound in the top right hand corner, a bull in the lower right corner and a cross in the lower left corner, with the harp you normally see on the Flag of Northern Ireland in the middle.
Ring Attire: A two-strapped singlet colored like the Irish flag, complete with with "EIRE" written on his lower back. Elbowpads and kneepads that match his singlet, taped fingers and black boots with white laces, and he's set to go. If he's in for a fight like a no disqualifications match, he will tape his fists up all the way.
Entrance Attire: A hooded ring jacket colored like the Irish flag, without sleeves.
Theme Music: Afro Celt Sound System - Dark Moon, High Tide
Common Entrance:
A steady drumbeat begins over the soundsystem as soft green lights begin to spin and search around the arena, the fans beginning to bang on the rails to the beat of the Irish-themed music. Once the fiddles and everything else kick in, "The Irish Wolfhound" Owen McConnaigh comes through the curtain, hood up over his head as he throws a 'number 1' finger in the air to a round of applause from those in attendance. He tags his fans' hands on the way to the ring and once he gets there he goes around to the stairs, kissing his knuckles and planting them on the bottom step before heading up them, stopping in the middle of the apron. He looks out to the fans for a moment before ducking through the ropes into the ring, going to one turnbuckle and climbing onto it to throw his arms in the air for the crowd. He pulls his hood off, followed by taking his ring jacket off entirely, then he drops it to the floor, stretching against the ropes as he gets ready to go.
Special Entrance: Same as Common
Primary Style: Technical
Secondary Style: Submissions
Other Style: Brawler
Striking Moves:
Forearm strikes, low dropkick to the knee, discus clothesline, snapping left and right jabs, haymakers, high picture perfect dropkick, back elbow strike
Grapple Moves:
Snap Suplex, German Suplex, Double Underhook Suplex, T-Bone Suplex, Pendulum Backbreaker, Shinbreaker, Belly to Belly Side Suplex, Jumping Piledriver, Russian Leg Sweep, DDT, Macho Neck Snap over top rope
Top Rope Moves:
Fist Drop, Double Axehandle, Top Rope Superplex, Top Rope Belly to Belly Overhead Suplex
Submission Moves:
Abdominal Stretch, Stretch Muffler, Stump Puller, Single and Double Leg Boston Crabs, Figure Four Leglock, STF, Kneeling Abdominal Stretch, Rolling Butterfly Lock, Fujiwara Armbar, Indian Deathlock w/a bridge
Momentum Shift Moves/Reversals:
Knows how to properly counter just about any submission hold placed on him, but normally counters into leg submissions simply out of habit. If opponent is charging him, Owen will just try to get out of the way and make the opponent spill over the top rope or crash into the steel ringpost.
Wrestling Traits:
+ His knowledge of and ability to perform wrestling moves is only matched by the very best in the business. All of his moves do the damage they're intended to do, and it'll be rare to ever see him execute one sloppily.
+ VERY dangerous when attempting a submission. Just about any of his holds sans the Abdominal stretch variations have an opportunity to end a match.
+ Very smart wrestler; will not hesitate to use the ropes to break a pin if he is close enough. Really doesn't ever make a mistake during a match.
- If weapons are trying to be used in a match that doesn't allow it, or if the opponent attempts an infraction of the rules, Owen will flip out and attack his enemy savagely, probably causing a DQ unless he gets control.
- Since he doesn't cheat or take advantage of unfair openings, Owen costs himself a lot of chances to do damage.
- If Finn is unfairly attacked he will not hesitate to interfere, likely costing Finn matches.

The McConnaigh Special - The move passed down from generation to generation, from McConnaigh to McConnaigh. Owen approaches a prone, face down opponent from the side. Owen then "scissors" (clasps) the near arm of the opponent with their legs and takes hold of the far arm of the opponent with both hands, forcing the opponent onto their side and placing stress on both shoulder joints, as well as making it harder for the opponent to breathe. In layman's terms, The Rings of Saturn with extra pressure.
Amazing Grace - Cattle Mutilation
Absolution - Crippler Crossface
