Jacob Mephisto

Manager(s):

Additional Information:

Gimmick: Mephisto was patterned after Jake Roberts in his “Trust Me” era. He’s evolved a lot since then. He’s a master manipulator. The current iteration of Mephisto borrows from the old school Kevin Sullivan Army of Darkness stable. He’s a Manson-like cult leader in the vein of Otis B Driftwood, but heavily rooted in professional wrestling. He has a newly acquired “family” that he’s brought to pro wrestling.

Bio: Jacob Mephisto is a pro wrestling veteran who has evolved over the years. This current incarnation has seen him as dangerous as ever. He is unstable, but still sly and cunning. His words are foreboding, his actions devious. He is growing his own twisted family, first in SHOOT Project, the place he calls home, and now throughout the professional wrestling world.
