IBW Information and Locations

IBW HQ Location: Hartford, Connecticut
Collision Arena Location: Currently in a "Transition Period"



International Brutal Wrestling is a company that started up in December of 2014, after the fall of a company named OBW not too earlier. IBW was run by Richard Rutherford from December to August, when Richard sold his company and stepped down to be a manager. To whom he sold his company to was kept a very close secret until Charlie Schafer, GM of Collision since December after he succeeded Mr. VanderHayden, stepped forward to become the new and current Owner and CEO, along with a new HeadQuarters and a new GM to boot. This lasted until Michael Stark, current CEO, took hold by swindling his way to the top, swiftly booting Charlie Schafer from the company and staking his claim. Charlie Schafer managed to grapple his way back to the top after a time, but not before IBW went on a brief hiatus in late 2017. Now, IBW is making a comeback and crawling it's way back up to where it was before, and beyond.



Personnel



The Board



Ayden Stark
Posted Image
Owner/CEO, CTO, Company President, Head of Product and Communications, Collision General Manager
Married to Michael Stark

During IBW's hiatus from late 2017 to mid 2018, Ayden Stark took control of the company, and her husband Michael Stark was at her side. She began running things and whipping IBW back into shape to make sure she can build the company back up to where it used to be.

Co-President, Advisor to Ayden Starr
28 Years Old
Married to Ayden Stark

Heavy handed and sometimes unfair, Michael Stark is the former CEO, Owner, CTO, Head of Production and Communications, and Head of Talent Relations. A crippling loss against some of IBW's valiant heroes led him to lose his position, and learn a little thing about loss. He was begrudgingly taken on by Charlie Schafer as an advisor for a time, and now he serves IBW alongside his wife Ayden Stark as they rebuild and make IBW better than ever.

COO, Vice President of Strategy & Finance, Vice President of Creative
40 Years Old
Divorced

After another brief stint in the CEO chair, IBW went on hiatus and Charlie Schafer took over COO duties as well as becoming VP to Charles Preston under Finances. He's a lot more high strung than he used to be, a bit more erratic and unpredictable as he helps IBW to get back on his feet.

Killian Drake

Head of Talent Relations, Head of Creative
30 Years Old
Married to Mrs. Drake

A Christian businessman, Killian Drake is an old friend of Ayden Starr's who has entered the company to help her get IBW back on his feet. Not a lot is known about him, however, so it remains to be seen how he'll work with the company...

Charles Preston, Jr.
Posted Image
Chief Strategy & Financial Officer
27 Years Old
Unmarried

A dedicated and driven young man, he's the son of a very successful Financial Officer named Charles Preston, Sr. He was brought into the company by his cousin, Harry Croft, in early 2016, and he has been dedicated to the company ever since. He is very business-oriented, but is willing to have a good time if he's called upon. He is often underestimated due to his age, much like Michael Stark, with whom he identifies. He is currently hard at work with Ayden Stark and the rest of the board on working to get IBW up and running again financially.

Sapphire Montgomery-Bowens
Posted Image
Head of Television Production, Head of Marketing
30 Years Old
Married to Chad Bowens

After leaving the company for a few months to deal with a pregnancy and impending marriage, Sapphire reentered the company in the months leading up to HOW to stand up to Michael Stark. She brought in her husband, Chad Bowens, to aide Harry Croft and stand up to her former lover and foster brother. This caused a rift between Sapphire and Michael Stark, as they continue to work together under IBW. Sapphire stepped up to the role of COO, and continues to help the company grow and rebuild.

Bryce Powers
Posted Image
Executive Vice President, Television Production, Live Events
54 Years Old
Married to Brandi Powers

Bryce Powers has been the name associated with IBW productions since the beginning. Since the days of OBW, he has run things behind the scenes and remained loyal and unwavering to the cause of IBW. A stubborn and set man, he believes in the old fashioned way of doing things. He's often unconcerned with the personal lives of his fellow board members, only agreeing to work with them in a professional setting. No one truly knows what he's like personally, as he's very cold and calculating when working with someone due to his nature.

Brandi Powers
Posted Image
President of IBW Studios
50 Years Old
Married to Bryce Powers

Brandi Powers, Bryce's wife, is in charge of IBW's movie production, IBW's video game production, IBW Pay Per Views, and more! She's knowledgeable, quick to learn, and quite friendly. Her husband, Bryce, refuses to get to know her colleagues outside of the office, but she is constantly trying to change that as she urges him to make friends. She's very friendly, she loves to crack a joke, and she's usually very informal when working, trying to lighten the mood as much as possible. She and Bryce seem like polar opposites, but they are very much in love and have two sons together.

Trenton Christopher

Chief Revenue & Marketing Officer
44 Years Old
Married to Janet Christopher

Trenton Christopher is the Chief Revenue & Marketing Officer, in charge of advertising and other miscellaneous ways of spreading the word about IBW. He's a very stern man, willing to make friends and work with colleagues but doesn't quite know how to joke or keep things light. He's often focused on his work, and as such he's admired for his work ethic by Bryce Powers. The other board members are constantly trying to get Trenton to lighten up, but as of yet he's still stone cold and unwilling to crack a smile.


Collision Staff


Joe Hamilton
Posted Image
Play-By-Play Commentator
49 Years Old
Married to Veronica Hamilton

Always impressed by physical prowess in the ring, Joe Hamilton is the play-by-play commentator of IBW. He's stern, cynical, and outright cruel. He's got a love/hate relationship with Andreas Crawford, as Andreas constantly attempts to make him laugh and torments him with pet names and jokes. Hamilton tends to lean toward the heel in the match, but if the face has shown tremendous talent and progress, Hamilton can occasionally lean toward the face. Hamilton likes a good heel, but knows that talent wins overall.

Andreas Crawford
Posted Image
Color Commentator
34 Years Old
Engaged to Gary Yatsuomatzi

Andreas Crawford is a happy-go-lucky man, the color commentator for IBW's flagship show Collision. He's often known to lean toward the face in the match, almost never leaning toward the heel. He's constantly trying to get his partner, Joe Hamilton, to smile, and almost never succeeding. He's known to focus more on the personality and background of the superstars, leaving the technical prowess up to Joe Hamilton. Andreas loves to crack a joke and loves to make conversation, making him great fun at parties.

Harriet Jean

Ring Announcer
30 Years Old
Unmarried

Picked up after OBW fell in 2014, she's been the ring announcer since the beginning. She's always working to make sure IBW shows are the best shows in the world, even if that means she's only improving her little corner of them. She's very dedicated to IBW as a whole, constantly working with it's stars. She's formed many friendships in IBW, and she makes it her duty to know just about anything and everything about IBW's stars so she knows best how to announce them and help them if needed. She's very kind, and always willing to help.

Tabitha "Tabby" Reid
Posted Image
Backstage Interviewer
21 Years Old
Divorced

Tabby Reid is a young, shy reporter looking to make it big in IBW. She joined back when it started in December 2014, and has grown in leaps and bounds since. She's always been shy and meek, unwilling to speak her opinion, but she has since grown leaps and bounds. She's always looking for new experiences, and although she may still be shy in some situations, she isn't as shy as she used to be. She was married to IBW Superstar Hamish at one point, but they have divorced.

Jimmy Freeze
Posted Image
Backstage Interviewer
39 Years Old
Married to Carrie Freeze

Funny, smart ass tweener interviewer. Knows a lot about what he's doing, as he's been doing this for years on end and studying IBW's stars extensively. Usually has an opinion on just about everything. He doesn't care what you think, if he's being honest. If he's got an opinion, it doesn't matter what you think. He loves to make a joke at someone else's expense, but he also loves to make friends. You either love or you hate Jimmy Freeze, there's no in between.

Isaac Kent
Posted Image
Backstage Interviewer
35 Years Old
Unmarried

Snarky heel interviewer. Loves a good heel, loves to crack jokes about the faces with them, but will always turn on someone in a heartbeat. You can never trust Isaac Kent, even though he doesn't pose much of a threat. With faces, he will outright torment them verbally. With heels, he'll buddy up until they do something he doesn't like. A snake in the grass, it's a wonder anyone's still willing to interview with Isaac Kent.
