Bio:
“This guy is one of the smartest guys I’ve ever met, man. The way he knows the casino games inside and out? The way he accurately profiles people? He’s way too smart to always have blood on his hands” - Jeff Larson, MGM
“He didn’t talk about his personal life much. But a couple shared whiskeys with Church, and I found out he actually drives to Hobbs, New Mexico once a week to bring money to his kids and their mom. That’s where a large amount of his money goes. To the kids.” - Paul Allen, Bellagio
“Yo, I’ve seen him beat up fools, torture fools. He’s the most violent person I’ve ever seen. And I grew up in an L.A. gang.” -Louis Jennings, MGM
“Dude owns the strip. The millions of regular visitors to Vegas? They know his name and usually know what casino he’s workin’ at. Tourists that try to cheat the system? Church acts like they’re stealin’ money out of his own pocket. Don’t fuck with Church.” - Brian Purdy, Bellagio
“I remember asking him about his tattoos. So much religious imagery, and even when he talks, there’s so much religious undertones. But when I asked him about religion, he says he doesn’t believe a word of it. I even remember him saying that he was “the God of his own world”. I guess he just leans in to his name, ya know? Church. His ‘persona’.” -Jenny Rodriguez, Caesar’s
“I’ve never seen anybody go through the ranks of security like Church has. I’ve been workin’ the Vegas Strip on security for 35 years. No other guy has ever sky-rocketted to literally runnin’ the show like he has. Not only that? He’s the only guy I’ve ever seen get to keep the beard and wear leather. He’s re-written the rules as he’s gone along” - Jeff Sokol, Bellagio
“‘Take him to Church’ is the scariest phrase in the city of Las Vegas. We had to offer so much money to bring him in, but it’s an investment. Because when you’ve got Church, you’ve got loss prevention. Automatic. In one man.” -Michael Daniel, Aria General Manager

Various ways to smash his knee into your face
Signature move(s):
The Top Hat: Lifts the opponent up with a chokeslam and drops to a knee, driving the back of the opponent's head/neck onto the extended knee. Can look pretty gnarly and is certainly impactful enough to possibly win a match...or for solid false finishes.
