Zell Hunter

A sturdly built man in his mid-30's who's body shows the travels
that he's done. Built more along the lines of John Morrison in terms
of muscle tone. Zell has a two signature tattoos with the first one being
a unique tribal tattoo around his left orbital bone of his eye and the second one is the intricate and large celtic knotwork tattoo which spreads from his left shoulder across both of his shoulder blades.

Zell possesses several small scars and one large but signature scar which his own older brother actually caused while in Japan. It encircles his neck and was made of barbed wire.

Zell's ring attire is fairly simple and straight forward. It is composed
of a pair of black cargo shorts, black Brahma SWAT-style boots, a white/gray/black tank top and a pair of well worn black leather fingerless gloves. He also wears a simple gold band on a black leather chord around his neck.

Zell's normally a fairly laid back person who enjoys hanging out with his
friends and allies, once you've got Zell's back-he's got your's until you do something to fuck up that arrangement, he also enjoys a good fight as much as the next person..sometimes a little bit more than normal.

However when Zell pulls on his signature fighting gloves, it usually means that the mood is about to change and he goes from fun loving goof to utterly professional. In the ring he is known for putting his body on the line to do what ever it takes to either win the match or to simply show who ever his opponent is that they've just been in a fight.

The third child of the five Hunter brothers (the others are form Cairo Championship Heavyweight and Underground champion in the "Punisher" Matt Hunter, Eric Hunter, Frank "Foe Foe" Hunter and the late Timothy "Tidus" Hunter) and is a second generation wrestler as the son of "Jumping" Jack
Hunter from the 60's. When Kevin was five years old, his parents divorced with his father taking his two older brothers in Matt and Frank while the other three including Zell stayed in their native Yonkers. While growing up, Zell was close friends of Marcus Owens, Gem and Ricky Vercetti,
Nick Burman and several others as well as inheriting a love of wrestling which his mother agreed to let him become if and only if he graduated from High School which is what he did in 1993.

Zell went to Windsor, Ontario where he found a teacher in the form of Doug Chevalier along with his best friend in Rick Vercetti (who would later become "Maverick Nova" and later still "Ricky Nova") who taught the two young men how to be wrestlers before helping to get them signed to Thomas D'Amore's "Frontier Wrestling Alliance" based out of Windsor where both Zell and Ricky were given the gimmicks that they would wear for the next six years as the "Mavericks" in the form of Mavericks "Spyder" (Zell) and "Nova" (Ricky) which they were then placed as apart of the "Mavericks" stable there under Matt Hunter. Spyder's debut was in 1994 at the FWA's annual "Fright Night" PPV when Spyder along with three of the new Mavericks came out of the crowds and helped the "Master Metallics" in Mavericks Blade and Storm (Blade was also Zell's eldest brother in Matt Hunter) to win the FWA World Tag Team titles for a fourth time.

Over the course of the next six years, Zell would use the gimmick of Spyder or the "Insane Bump Machine" as he also became known as for doing moves that would lead to some of the most incredible bumps in the history of the Summit Wrestling Alliance's member-promotions and several other indy feds including World Wide Wrestling, World Internet Championship Wrestling, Omega International Wrestling and Superior Championship Wrestling. He was also dubbed the "Master of Toadcore Wrestling" due to his unusual ability to hit strings of cruiserweight moves no matter what kind of match. Spyder and Nova would normally team up as the "Hardcore Hellions" in several promotions as one of the "branches" of the Mavericks until the infamous May 1999 PPV for the R*Y*U promotion in Yokohama Japan.

At said PPV, Maverick Blade demanded that Spyder give up his R*Y*U Double Titles which he had won the month before and Spyder said no and that while he idolized his brother, these were *Spyder's* titles and not the Mavericks which lead to a violent match later which was concluded when Blade attempted to hang his younger brother with a noose made of barbed wire which lead to the creation of the signature scar around his neck. Spyder lost his Double Titles but the seeds of what was to come next was planted. Spyder had a brief tenure in the newly formed Global Xtreme Wrestling and a hellacious match with Kin Hiroshi before leaving for Japan in order to "find himself" after the permenant break up of the Mavericks earlier that month.

Six months later in the still young Omega Wrestling Alliance promotion, Spyder made an appearence but he was now known as the "Messiah" Zell Hunter and using a "dark priest" gimmick which he helped Peter Graves run the OWA Wrestling School as well as help to train his future partner in
crime in Devon Slayton, the eldest son of the "Sandman" Marcus Slayton AKA "The Reaver". Hunter in 2002 would then return to Global Xtreme Wrestling as the "Messiah" for three months before dropping it and becoming the old fun loving goof that everyone knew and he quickly became the first and only GXW J-Crown Tournment champion and then a month later, the longest running GXW Cruiserweight champion (Six montths, three weeks, nine days) while attempting to woo Trynyty Wang of Twin Phoenix.

During 2003 a moment of utter despair occured when Zell's kid brother in Tim AKA "Tidus" was coming home from his debut match when he was hit by a drunk driver and killed. This threw Zell off of his game for weeks until close friend "Hellfighter" Patrick Shutt helped him get his mind back but this happened shortly after the GXW change to "Global Wrestling Evolution" and then it's closing. Hunter and Trynyty then left the States to wrestle for the Omega Wrestling Alliance and the Universal Wrestling Corporation before a death in Trynyty's family caused her to leave him to deal with the family issues. It was during this time that Zell's older brother Matt re-entered his life and into the "Gathering" stable.

While in Cairo Championship Wrestling, Zell was more likened to a "Younger Reaver" than the Zell of old due to the mounting mental stress that he had been under and the problems between Matt and Zell finally came to a ahead when Zell was brutally attacked with first a car and then a sledgehammer by his brother, almost shattering his right knee in the last months of 2005. Zell quietly retired to his home in Yonkers New York to rehab his knee and to also get a "reality check" and now after almost nine months, he finally feels like himself again and he wants to give the stomping grounds of several former GXW wrestlers a try in the form of the CSWA.

After the closing of the CSWA almost two months after he joins due to front office politics, Zell spent the next couple of years in China trying to find the missing Trynyty Wang who had fallen to her darker side and became Trynyty Dahaka during their time in Carson City Wrestling. Zell however eventually returned to the United States to be apart of the Universal Wrestling Corporation's "Team UWC" as their mysterious fourth member for the 2008 Summit Wrestling Alliance "Summit Games" and won the event that year, also he was on hand for his close friend in Chris Slayton along with his wife Yeh Shen Li for their winning of the UWC World Tag Team championships from the "Dead Pool" (Spike and Reaper) who then helped to keep the rest of the "Network" stable away from ringside a couple of weeks later when Zell went up against the "Black Tiger" Kevin Renzor for the UWC World Heavyweight championship which Zell won and then dedicated his win to his missing love.

Zell held onto the title for the next five months before a series of strange events caused him to drop the title to Chris Morton of the Network stable which what happened next is unknown but what is known is that at some point through an unknown series of events, Zell managed to find and help Trynyty.

Zell's return to the world of wrestling was spured partially on by a desire to continue doing something he enjoys a lot-fighting-and a need to finish some unfinished buisness.

United States Title, 13/09/04 - 06/12/04 (84 days), lost it indirectly in the Birthday Brawl.
