Gimmick: Julian Tijerina is as mysterious as he is controversial. With his great intellect and impressive strategic thinking, he overcomes many challenging obstacles in the ring, developing and implementing a plan for everything: Plan A is winning inside the ring with his finisher, Plan B is the Breath of Death behind the referee's back, and the list goes on and on.

Theme Music: "Senbonzakura" by Lindsey Stirling
Entrance:
The lights go out. A few seconds later, a creepy female voice tells everyone "open your mind" before glass breaks and "Senbonzakura" by Lindsey Stirling plays.
[INSERT ANNOUNCER HERE]
Out comes Julian Tijerina, bathed in varying shades of purple, with the hood of his sleeveless jacket drawn over his head. Julian bobs his head to his theme music as he takes to the middle of the stage. He feigns going down on one knee before immediately popping his head out of his hood, the lights coming back on as he does so, swallowing the purple spotlights out of sight. Grinning, Julian stretches both arms to either side of his body before firing a finger gun aimed at the ring. He then makes his way to the ring, keeping his eyes on the squared circle while occasionally high-fiving fans, without even looking them in the eye, along the way.
Julian stops right outside the ring, breathes deeply while shaking his hands on his sides, and then without warning jumps up on the apron. He climbs the nearest turnbuckle and stretches both his arms to either side once more. Afterwards, he leaps forward into the ring and rolls through, taking a seat on the balls of his feet against the opposite corner.
Julian stays seated against the corner for a few seconds more before popping back to his feet. He stretches with the nearest ropes' help and waits for the match to officially begin.
Primary Style: Mexican Lucha Libre
Secondary Style: Japanese Strong Style
Strengths:
1. Quick, Imaginative and Strategic Mind – Julian prides himself on his mind, taking every opportunity to improve his knowledge, and this shows in the strength and flexibility of his strategic thinking. Insatiably curious and always up for an intellectual challenge, Julian can see things from many perspectives. Julian uses his creativity and imagination not so much for artistry, but for planning contingencies and courses of action for all possible scenarios.
2. Independent and Decisive – This creativity, logic and confidence come together to form an individual who stands on his own and takes responsibility for his own actions. Authority figures do not impress Julian, nor do social conventions or tradition, and no matter how popular something is, if he has a better idea, Julian will stand against anyone he has to in a bid to have it changed. Either an idea is the most rational or it’s wrong, and Julian will apply this to his arguments as well as his own behavior, staying calm and detached from these sometimes emotionally charged conflicts. Julian will only be swayed by those who follow suit.
3. Jack-of-all-Trades – Julian's open-mindedness, determination, independence, confidence, and strategic abilities make him capable of doing anything he sets his mind to. Excelling at analyzing anything life throws his way, Julian is able to reverse-engineer the underlying methodology of almost any system and apply the concepts that are exposed wherever needed. Because of this, Julian tends to have his pick of finishers, from aerial moves to submission holds, and even roles, from wrestler to commentator, for himself.
Weaknesses:
1. Arrogant – Julian is perfectly capable of carrying his confidence too far, falsely believing that he has resolved all the pertinent issues of a matter and closing himself off to the opinions of those he believes to be intellectually inferior. Combined with his irreverence for social conventions, Julian can be brutally insensitive in making their opinions of others all too clear.
2. Judgmental – Julian tends to have complete confidence in his thought process, because rational arguments are almost by definition correct – at least in theory. In practice, emotional considerations and history are hugely influential, and a weak point for Julian is that he brands these factors and those who embrace them as illogical, dismissing them and considering their proponents to be stuck in some baser mode of thought, making it all but impossible to be heard.
3. Overly analytical – A recurring theme with Julian is his analytical prowess, but this strength can fall painfully short where logic doesn’t rule – such as with human relationships. When his critical minds and sometimes neurotic level of perfectionism are applied to other people, all but the steadiest of friends will likely need to make some distance, too often permanently.
