Wrestling Attire - He wears white trunks with Maori designs in black (https://www.smmash.eu/fightwear/spodenki-mma/maori). White handwraps. Black boots with an inverted design similar to the trunks (white design on black boots).
Gimmick: Hayden has spent years searching himself to identify the secret to his identity, his lineage. This quest has led him back to his homeland, Aotearoa New Zealand. This quest eventually would lead him to be bestowed the powers of the Demi-God Maui after a year long hiatus. He is now considered a descendant of Maui himself, Maui's blood flows through his veins.
He carries with him his greenstone club, called a Mere, as a symbol of this power.
This quest has led to his name changing. The warriors who bestowed the blessing of Maui upon him have named him Tamatoa Harikoa, which roughly translates to the 'Jubilant Warrior'. Underneath his tattoos, his name change, he remains the same positive, quick-witted Jackass that rose to fame in these very halls.
Fighting Style: A real mixture of aerialist with tendancies to brawl. As he is getting older, the flashy moves which he began his career with become slightly less frequent. Instead, Hayden has trained in traditional Maori warfare. The hand-to-hand warfare uses a combination of weapons (his preference being his mere club and sticks that he can use as 'tiaha'), along with the concept of momentum. He uses his own and the opponent's momentum in order to get and advantage. Stringing moves together and throwing the opponent off balance to create openings is key.
In the ring, Hayden is one of the tougher competitors out there. He prides himself on the concept of being able to take more punishment than anybody else.
