Biography: David Gibson is the older of two children of the "Chaos Kat" Kyle Gibson, a wrestler from the late 80s through mid 90s on the international indy scene who worked for promotions such as the ICWA, NeWA and its affiliates, and the WfWA and its affiliates where he grew up in Diamond Head Hawaii alongside his younger sister Ashley.

David joined the family business shortly after graduating from high school as a two sport star (Rugby and Basketball) before he started his training at the "House of Glory" wrestling school alongside Uiriamu Minami and Jacob Striker before he went on for additional training at the infamous "Slayton Wrestling Dojo" in Cameron North Carolina before he joined the California based "Major League Wrestling", which was a farm/feeder territory for the larger Universal Wrestling Corporation where he was a regular member of both rosters until the promotion's closure in late 2017.

Gibson's contract would then be picked up by Elite Answers Wrestling where he would be criminally underused by the "One and only true *ELITE* Wrestling promotion in the world!", due to in part his refusal to take part in several extremely questionable matches and storylines. It was here that the first signs of the cracks in his mental state started to show in the weeks leading up to his dismissal from the EAW at which point he and his long time tag team partner Sabin Richards would then sign with the short lived Vanguard Pro promotion out of Southern California where he would meet and briefly be in a relationship with Marissa Ortiz of the Gal Pals Deluxe while at the same time David branched out into a solo contract with the World Wrestling Headquarters.

And that's about the time that the wheels really fell off..

After a series of events, David finally snapped during his time with the World Wrestling Headquarters and he adopted the identity of the "Anti-Machine" for a while, not really caring about his career or well being until during a match for Global Championship Wrestling just prior to the Covid Shutdown which ended with him suffering a tear in his left quadriceps muscle that practically tore it off of the bone which forced him to step away fully from wrestling completely for a long time.

Following the return of the World Wrestling Headquarters under new owner Eden Black, David was revealed as not only the newest member of the Shinigami Foundation faction there, but also Thomas Bane's new tag team partner to replace Alex Slayer (who has since entered semi-retirement) and since then has shown that he's not only conquered his demons, but grown because of them.

Character

Nickname(s): The “Hungry Wolf”, “Mr. Mayhem”
Gimmick: A second generation wrestler who feels that he has something to prove to himself following a rather dark run through several promotions roughly over two years ago as the man once known as the "Anti-Machine" has returned and is looking to pick up where he left off.

He's loyal to the Shinigami Foundation for this second chance that they have given him and he'll do everything in his power to keep from failing both himself and the group.
