WWE Bio

Faarooq is a soldier of fortune, ruled by the almighty dollar. If you have a problem, a problem that perhaps no one else can help with, and you possess cash—lots of cash—then perhaps Faarooq will take on your cause. Of course, beer, cards and a nice cigar would go a long way to currying Faarooq’s favor, as well. (Just don’t forget the cash). Once the leader of the feared Nation of Domination, Faarooq found a kindred spirit in the raw-boned Texan, Bradshaw. As the Acolytes, the duo would do the bidding of Undertaker, and later Mr. McMahon. Amid these upheavals, Faarooq and Bradshaw saw an opportunity and struck out on their own, opening the Acolytes Protection Agency (APA). The two would set up shop and wait for Superstars to seek out their services, which they carried out swiftly, and with extreme prejudice. You see, time was of the essence. Beer doesn’t stay cold forever. Arguably one of the greatest athletes to ever step foot in a WWE ring, Faarooq is again open for business in WWE ’13 . With Bradshaw at his side, mayhem is as sure a bet as the royal flush he deals himself in poker against an unwitting rube.

Breakdown

Faarooq is a tough dude and a well-rounded Superstar. Team up with Bradshaw for some tag team action, and the ability to rock the vicious Backbreaker & Elbow 1 Tag Team Finisher. On his own, his Inverted Front Powerslam is a tremendously devastating Finisher grapple and is begging to be used on the announcer table. He’s not weak in any area, and sports 75-85 ratings across the board. We used him to dominate at different levels and challenge matches with great success.
