"Tecmo World Wrestling/Button Mash" by the Nestunes fills the arena. The
musical selection, having been chosen as a tribute to his father, announces
the arrival of Pat Gordon, Junior. Gordon steps out from behind the curtain
and stands at the top of the aisle, generating a mild pop from the crowd by
raising both of his arms into the air.
It isn't long before he starts his trek toward the ring, giving out high
fives along the way. Junior makes a quick lap around the ring, getting in
some last high fives with the fans, before giving away his t-shirt to a
lucky fan in the front row. He turns his focus toward the ring, locking eyes
with his opponent while he scales the ring steps. He looks out to the crowd
one last time, raising his arm, and steps through the ropes.

Wrestler Bio*: Pat Gordon, Jr. grew up idolizing his father, who was a
pro-wrestler himself. Junior knew at an early age that he wanted to follow
in his father's footsteps. This was against his father's wishes, but
bullying at school and in their South Boston neighborhood made it clear that
Pat Gordon (Sr.) would have to teach his son to defend himself.
PGJR worked hard in the Pat Gordon Wrestling Academy, and despite being
often overlooked by his father, was probably one of the best talents to come
out of the wrestling school. His father made him promise not to get into
professional wrestling until after he graduated from college, but in January
2010 his father agreed to get him ONE match before graduation. Pat Gordon,
Jr. debuted in England on a JUST Wrestling card defeating Sean Stylez.
In college, PGJR had scholarships for his participation in both the school's
boxing and wrestling teams. Upon graduation, he entered the 2012 UltraTitle
Tournament, dedicating his four round run to the careers of his father (Pat
Sr.) and his uncle (Mike). He beat the legendary Suicide, "People's Choice"
August Joyce, and Jeffrey Roberts before losing to the eventual winner of
their bracket, wrestling legend High Flyer.
The Boston Bruiser had many offers on the table with both Pro Wrestling
FRONTIER and Frontier Grappling Arts at the top of the list. To this day
many say he meant to sign with FRONTIER in England, but got mixed up and
accidentally signed to FGA instead. This led to the first FGA vs. FRONTIER
as PW FRONTIER GM Scott Mayo called out FGA for "stealing" their recruit.
It was through FGA that Pat Junior became involved with the United Wrestling
League, a coalition of territories to which FGA belonged at the time. In
2013, Pat won the UWL World Heavyweight Title, scoring what many called an
upset over champion Elijah Black, who had only defended the title once in
180 days. Pat Gordon, Jr. vowed to be a "Fighting Champion" and began to
tour the championship around the territories, defending it. Sadly, UWL
closed a few months later. He never got a shot at the UWL title when the
League reopened.
An interesting tidbit: A.J. Fairchild once called Pat Gordon, Jr. "the
Hardest Working Man in Professional Wrestling" after Gordon wrestled four
matches in one night, consisting of two battle royals, a tag team match, and
a singles bout vs. Chris Q in FGA. Pat Gordon, Jr. has kept his nickname to
this day, and still considers this to be his greatest achievement.
The recent passing of Pat's father and idol sent him on a downward spiral of
depression, forcing him in and out of mental health facilities for nearly
the first half of 2015. This has also caused him to drop a considerable
amount of weight; he's almost 20 pounds below his fighting weight.
It's clear that Pat Gordon, Jr. feels his place is in the ring and wants to
make a mark for both himself and the memory of his father, but is he
mentally fit for combat?
