Sladen Dead
Sladen Dead (born Alan Daniel Jackson on 4th September), sometimes Sladen Deadite, is an underground Gothic hip-hop artist, horror writer and a wrestler, from Rye Town, East-Sussex, England. He is also a Vampire. Sladen Dead started wrestling in 1999, back in the days before his music. He made his debut in a tag match in the KWS partnered with The Big Lassman, VS Mark Cohen and Adam Soraf. Sladen Dead abruptly left the scene and retired from wrestling under this ego in Early October, 2009. However, he continues to "haunt" the organisation WWC under his alias Latchingdon. However he still makes most of his appearances as Happy Vim the Clown.

Wrestling
Edit
Sladen Dead's first match was unsuccessful, and he and his partner lost the match. However, Sladen went on to fight many more matches in the KWS for the next 3 years, which led on to the legendary Sladen VS Smiler matches. Sladen Dead won many matches and soon got recognised as the KWS Hardcore Champion, retaining the title for almost a year. Sladen has become known as gothic, which he is, but when he first began wrestling he was far from it, with a very colourful attire and white boots and no makeup.
Sladen wrestled in the WWC for two years before he was forced to leave by other wrestlers who were by no means, considered friends. Sladen then went on to wrestle in the EWF. This only lasted briefly, and Sladen came back to the WWC reluctantly as The Ghost.
In 2004, Sladen Dead joined the UWO, and created the UWO Organisation MABS Inc., of which he and fellow wrestler and hip-hop artist Uzziah were owners of. The MABS was a faction of all the most gothic superstars in the UWO teamed up as one stable. However, this team broke up and only recently returned in 2009 as no longer a stable, but a gothic rap band.
In 2005, Sladen and his sister Alba teamed up and she became his manager. In 2006, fans began getting creeped out by how close they seemed, and started rumours that they may be more than meets the eye. To this day, they still work together as the creepy couple.
Sladen went by many an alias in his wrestling career, his eariest one being Ajax. Other names he went by included Ripper Roo, Jen, Joan Fear and Scissorman. As well as alternative names, he also has alter egos, such as Happy Vim and The Ghost.
Alter Ego's
Edit
Sladen had many alter egos in his time as a wrestler. These are listed below with descriptions;

Added by UWOGeneralManager- Ajax - Ajax was the first alias of Sladen Dead, with the classic attire of rainbow coloured tights and white boots. It is considered to be Sladen's most normal look. Ajax later became a more dark character, wearing black tights, gothic makeup and black boots. This alternate version he dubbed Ajax Widowmaker.
- Ripper Roo - Ripper was Sladen's second alias, named after the mentally deranged kangeroo in Crash Bandicoot. Ripper would come down to the ring in a strait jacket with white contact lenses, a skirt and black boots.
- Jen - Jen was the milestone for Sladen Dead, as it was his darkest image of the time. Jen was named after a girl he had met and fallen in love with in Rye Town and was forced to leave her. Jen would wear black flares, a black tee-shirt, white contact lenses and black boots.
- Scissorman - Scissorman was an evil looking alternative to dark Ajax - he would wear black tights, black boots, gothic makeup, white contact lenses, black vest and long black gloves. Sometimes would wear a long leather coat.
- Joan Fear - Joan Fear would wear a long white wig, reminicent of a Banshee, with gothic makeup, black jeans, black boots, black tee-shirt and white contact lenses.
- Homunculus - Homunculus, named after the demon in Shadow of Memories/Shadow of Destiny, was Sladen's less theatricle ego. He was considered the Mankind of the UWO. He would wear a white tee-shirt, blue jeans, black boots and white contact lenses.
- Happy Vim - Happy Vim was a complete change from Sladen's usual looks, and more reminicent of the Insane Clown Posse. Vim would wear black and white clown paint, a colourful checked shirt, black jeans and black boots with a red wig. Vim also went by the names Dr. Clock, Shifty Danny, Decimus the Great, Dusty and Phoenix Harper.
- The Ghost - The Ghost has, on many occasions, been accused of being a copy of Sting or The Crow, having almost exactly the same paint. However, Sladen claims that this image was created with no attempt at copying anybody, but to put across the image that he was dead, using ghostly looking paint and black attire.
Finishers and Signatures
Edit
- Dropkick - Sladen Dead became known in the KWS as being able to perform the Dropkick better than anybody else on the roster. This became Sladen's signature move due to this.
- Hip Toss - Sladen Dead regularly used the hip toss, thus making it a signature move.
- Senton Splash - Sladen often finished his opponents with a Senton, either off of a table or a turnbuckle. Most notable would be in a classic match against Smiler when Sladen broke one of Smiler's ribs with a Senton Splash. This became his finisher.
- Spinning Kicks - Sladen used a lot of martial arts style spinning back kicks etc. which became a signature move after a while.

Edit
Sladen Dead has released a number of records with still more to come. Sladen dubs his style of music "Gothic-Rap",using elements from both Gothic Metal music and Death Rap. Sladen has said on many occasions, that he hates modern music and modern rap, and for this reason, his hip-hop style is dark, and gothic, using only classical instruments, choirs, pipe organs, acoustic and metal guitars. Nothing digital.
