Anton was born to a German prostitute and one of a number of Johns she was with. He stuck around at the "brothel" until he was six. At this point he ran away. He was taken in by a shelter and then a kind family, which brought him to the age of 11. He fell on some hard times and was living on the streets for three years. Here, he learned to fight for himself. Many nights he would be part of an enormous brawl for a slice of bread, or the leftovers in a restaraunt dumpster. Anton was taken in by a group of homeless adults who taught him the basics of fighting. There he learned how to kill a man with one blow. After a particulary gruesome street fight a man offered him a job as a bouncer at his strip club. Anton took the opportunity and made an exsorbant amount of money. There he met Desire. She was a dancer that befriended him. She taught him english and he taught her how to fight. Whenever a guy that was watching the dancers got too frisky she was able to knock them out. One day an American wrestling promoter saw both Anton and Desire in action when a bar fight broke out and offered them a job as his stars in the newest American wrestling promotion. They took him up on his offer and there Anton's talents were fostered by some of the best high flyer and technical wrestlers. Because of contract conflicts though, Anton and Desire left after a year. They have tried a few other wrestling promotions before coming to the AWA. |
