USPW: American Wrestling At It's Finest!
Roster: Part Four
Jackson Andrews
Aaron "Jumbo" Jackson was trained by "Everest" Elmer Kelly in 2000, and spent his rookie years wrestling as Jumbo Jackson for NYCW. He would later head to CGC in Canada, where he wrestled as Avalanche, tag teaming with his trainer and having much success. However, he got the chance for even greater fame in 2003, when he was repackaged as Jumbo Shrimp, one third of Lobster Warrior's Underwater Union in SWF. He went on to have much success as the fun loving goofy giant, and was one of the company's most popular midcard acts. The "commotion in the ocean" storyline - the implosion of the stable - took place in 2007 as a way to springboard Lobster Warrior to the main event, and also marked the end of Jumbo's stay with the SWF. He turned up in USPW in September 2007, and has gone on to become one of their main heels, he was once again Re-Packaged in Late 2009, as Jackson Andrews, A Tribute to the Great Canadian Wrestler of the same name.
James Justice
James Justice is better known as Liberty, the former multi-time Total Championship Wrestling champion and long standing main eventer. After a disasterous heel turn in TCW did massive damage to his popularity, Liberty began sliding further and further down the card, with even a hasty face turn doing nothing to stop his fall. Although given both a big money contract extension offer and assurances that he would soon be back on top, he chose to leave the company in the summer of 2007 and instead sign with Sam Strong's USPW. Debuting under the name James Justice, and to much fanfare, he was quickly positioned as the new face of the promotion, and ended Bruce The Giant's year-long world title reign in October 2007 in USPW's biggest ever show.
Java
Java is an ultra-menacing 300lb+ heavyweight brawler who was born in Indonesia, but was brought up on the mean streets of Chicago. He has never been a particularly great in-ring talent, but his size and genuinely scary appearance have meant he has always been able to get work. He is most closely associated with USPW, where he has been working since 2002 and has formed an excellent and successful tag team with Tribal Warrior, but many people don't know that he was one of PGHW's big foreign draws in the late 1990s, and actually has wins over Mito Miwa and Shuji Inukai to his name.
Jesse Gilbert
Jesse Gilbert is the twin brother of Joe Gilbert, two Canadian high fliers who are noted for using a hockey-inspired gimmick. Having developed their skills on the Montreal independent circuit, they made their way to the States in late 2004, and soon found a home with CZCW. Over the course of the next year, they captured the company's tag titles on two occasions. Shortly after losing the belts, in January 2006, they headed back across the border to join Canadian Golden Combat, where they had three solid (if unremarkable) years as mainstays of the midcard. They left in 2009 to seek new challenges with USPW.
Jim Force
Face-painted powerhouse Jim Force is a former national champion bodybuilder, who first came to attention with the SWF in the Early 2000s, winning two North American titles and coming very close to the world title on several occasions. He was eventually released in 2002, when even the great SWF booking team of that era could no longer hide the fact that his in-ring skills were sub par compared to the rest of the roster. Force wound up in USPW by 2003, where he first debuted his face-paint look. Thanks to his SWF exposure, he was instantly promoted as one of the promotion's biggest names, and became a multi-time champion.
