Biography (life story):
Grew up in Wellington, New Zealand, and took up amateur wrestling in high school. It was Hayden's love for wrestling that got him involved with "the Wrong Crowd" at school, and his life took a turn for the worse. He became involved with drugs and crime, being coaxed into a smalltime gang through one of his so-called friends.
Once he left school, he went to live in New York, giving him the opportunity to take his career in crime to a new level, with some more dangerous people. After almost a year, working as an enforcer with some of the most dangerous druglords and mafia gang members in the country, he was caught and thrown into prison. While in prison, he had time to reconcile himself and think about where his life was going, so when the opportunity arose to shorten his stay in exchange for some information about his 'bosses', he agreed, thinking that it would be a good time for a fresh start.
The Early Days
The Road to Glory and Honor
Two months later, Hayden was at rock bottom, when he met a young lady who ran a wrestling business, by the name of Amanda. She took him under her wing, seeing the raw potential that lay in him. He had nothing to loose, and graciously accepted her offer for a contract. He quickly rose through the ranks, becoming known as a tagteam specialist Fighty fighty person (with the Asses of Insanity), until both him and the management team thought it would be a wise decision to make his own name for himself, which he did. Quickly he rose through the ranks of both cruiserweight and hardcore wrestling, and onto bigger and better things until he reached the home of GHW.
Hayden's innovative and high risk style of wrestling gave rise to the nickname "Jackass" of which he is better known as today, as once quoted by Sports Entertainment legend Jim Ross..."Anybody that puts his body on the line that often, against that many odds, every night of the week... can only be described as a Jackass".
Hayden's wrestling name, Hayden HardKore, came about as he was climbing the ranks of hardcore street wrestling. His background, working for some of the most dangerous people in the world, helped him to shape the art of Hardcore wrestling in ways that neither the fans, nor his opponents had ever seen before.
The Heel Turn:
For reasons that would only be revealed some two years later, Hayden's abrupt "heel turn" prior to his quitting GHW was one of the most unexpected and shocking moments in momory. All Hayden let in on at the time was the fact that he was "sick of being the "nice guy" who gets trampled over time and time again in peoples' ever present quest to reach the top.
All the frustration mounted in his elaborate scheme to blackmail his long time friend, mentor and fiance, Amanda. He revealed himself as the mystery blackmailer and mastermind behind the kidnapping of her brother after months of pretending to stand by her side. These actions would turn her life upside down and instantly burn the hatred of the GHW fans into him.
Combine his frustration with the delusional paranoia that his fiance was unfaithful and an attention seeking flirt, and the once loved Hayden HardKore, everybody's favourite "Jackass" began his downward spiral. As his twisted, sadistic mind-games continue, serious questions about his mental stability were raised. These questions followed the Jackass through his year-long absence from GHW, until his eventual showing up in the halls of EVPW.
The Grammar Fairy
The Grammar Fairy was a strange, mythical creature that made an appearance in GHW in the midst of it's Golden Era. It was later found out that the bizzare fairy-man was controlled by Hayden HardKore himself, and the Jackass would summon the powers of the Grammar Fairy to fight of the evil powers of bad grammar that were plaguing the world.
After a short spell, the popularity of the strange little fairy-man wore thin. Shortly after the release of his first Playstation 3 game (The Grammar Fairy: The mysterious case of the ever-expanding ellipsis), the Grammar Fairy was never seen again. After his dissapearance, Hayden too vanished one day, only to turn up over a year later on GHW's rival franchise, EVPW.
The EVPW Story
The Godfather[/b]
Hayden's return to Professional Wrestling was almost as controversial as his departure. For almost two years, not a word had been heard about the once loved Jackass, until a young man by the name of Thomas Cathy burst onto the EVPW scene.
Cathy (the "Tom-Cat") quickly became EXPW's Imperial Champion, and was taking the world by storm. His rapid success caused concerns, and further inquiry into his life revealed strong underworld connections in United Kingdom (particualrly Wales).
It would be revealed that Cathy was previously an enforcer for much of the British underworld, a feared name in his own rights. But when the rutless Welshman announced that his boss, manager and trainer was to make an appearance, naturally, heads turned. In an unexpected turn, the man behind Cathy's success was revealed to be none other than Hayden HardKore himself. Picking up in the same vein that he left off, Hayden quickly took over the halls of EVPW, playing the role of Godfather to EVPW's Mafia, "The Family".
It was here that alliances were formed and stars were born. Hayden was an avid recruiter, able to see the mean streak and raw potential in his Mafia's soldiers. However, his greatest find would prove to be not one of muscle, but of a brash, cocky yet intelligent lieutenant named Magnus Gunner. With Hayden as a mentor, Magnus quickly rose through the ranks of the Family to become the Godfather's "Underboss" or Lieutenent. The trio, HardKore, Cathy and Gunner would prove to be formiddable opponents until the innevitable. Eventually, with Gunner's success, he outgrew what the Godfather could contain, rebelled and consequently left the Family.
With his betrayal, the demise of the Family would soon follow, but in the most unexpected of ways.
Hayden vs Hayden
Almost two years since Hayden HardKore's infamous heel turn, the Godfather began being stalked by a mystery "white-hooded" man. Although the only one to know the identitiy of the stranger was the Godfather himself, the reaction of EVPW's most powerful Mob-Boss told the story well enough for all.
As speculation over who the mystery white-hooded figure was began flying around, one thing became clear. It was a person, perhaps the only person, that the Godfather truly feared. Time went by, and the sightings became more and more frequent, and more and more personal. Until, finally, after months of torment, the time for the pair to meat head to head would draw nearer.
In the mystery man's last symbol to the tormented Godfather, he broke into the office of the Godfather, leaving Hayden a present... The head of a donkey. After turning the office upside down, the mystery man took a knife to the Don's fine mahogony desk, carving the crest of "the Family" into the surface, before stabbing the knife used through a blood stained letter.
Inside the letter, the mystery man claimed to be a face from the Godfather's past, a face that would be recognised by all, but recognised by none at the same time. The man claimed to be the only face that the Godfather truly fears and to be coming back to "claim what is rightfully his". With the eerie challenge set, the pair met and the mystery man was revealed, live in Pay-Per-View.
In a match that would stand out to be one of the greatest in Hayden HardKore's illustrious career, the mystery man and the Godfather met face to face. After revealing that the white-hooded man was in fact Hayden HardKore himself, the match took a turn for the bizzare. As the pair fought on, the hardcore nature of the match would take effect. The evenyl matched pair would fight all over the arena, the match only ending with a two story drop that stopped the event suddenly. The White-Clad Hayden HardKore was declared the winner, walking away from the match, whereas the Godfather would be rushed to hospital.
In a tragic turn of events, a weakened Godfather would be set upon by one of his own "Family", and this match would prove to be his last. Leaving only a Welsh flag to verfy his actions, the long time enforcer of the Godfather himself, Thomas Cathy would see that the Don never rose from his bed, smothering the Mob Boss with a pillow. He was found by a nurse and pronounced dead the next morning.
As would later be revealed, the white-cloaked Hayden HardKore was in fact the TRUE Hayden HardKore, with the Godfather simply an imposter, albiet a powerful one. With his Mafia connections, the imposter had kidnapped Hayden, beaten and broken him, leaving him for what he presumed would be dead. However, Hayden would be rehabilitated, slowly but surely. After two long years of healing and physical training, the TRUE Hayden HardKore would be ready to pick up the scattered pieces of his broken life.
In a statement released to EVPW.com, the REAL Hayden HardKore had the following to say:
"I have spent the last two years waiting for this moment. A moment where I would take my life back, take back what was rightfully mine, but I would not imagnine it happening like this.
Last time I stepped foot inside a wrestling ring, I was the Undisputed Champion of GHW. At the top of the world.
I had it all, money, fans, a beautiful fiance and in one dark night, this pathetic coward of a man took it away from me...
I am sad it had to come to this, I really am. Accidents happen, and tragedies are sometimes unavoidable, but I will not mourn him. He took my life away long before his life was taken."[/color]
Hayden would continue to right his name with the fans (his "Jackasses"), fans he has come to re-gain the trust and admiration of. However, not all was well that ended well in Hayden's dopperlganger daga. Unfortunately, his relationship could not be saved and shortly after the fall of EVPW, Amanda Hallsworth and HAyden HArdKore went their seperate ways.
