Nico is not malicious, but he is incredibly self-centered. He genuinely believes he is a gift to professional wrestling and sees no reason to hide it. He can be charming, supportive, and even heroic when it benefits him, but his ego constantly threatens to get in the way. Whether fans cheer or boo him hardly matters—as long as they're paying attention.

PRESENTATION & AESTHETIC

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Entrance Music:

"Me Too" — Meghan Trainor

Entrance Description:

The lights shift to gold and white as the opening beat hits. Nico steps onto the stage wearing expensive sunglasses and a designer jacket covered in diamond patterns. He pauses, flashes a grin toward the camera, and points directly at himself during the chorus.

The camera constantly focuses on Nico's smile, his physique, and his reactions to the crowd. He walks with absolute confidence, occasionally blowing kisses or admiring himself on the arena screens. Fans quickly realize he's not joking—Nico genuinely thinks he's the best-looking man in the building.

Before entering the ring, he checks his reflection in the championship plate of any nearby title belt, production camera, or even a fan's phone screen. Once inside, he poses on the turnbuckles and spreads his arms as if expecting applause from the entire world.

Crowd Reaction:

Mixed. Some fans love the confidence. Others desperately want someone to punch him in the face.

- White and gold tights

- Diamond-pattern side panels

- Matching white boots with gold trim

- Gold wrist tape

- Diamond logo on kneepads

Out-of-Ring Appearance:

Nico dresses like a celebrity at all times. Designer shirts, fitted jackets, expensive watches, and immaculate grooming are mandatory. His posture is perfect and his confidence borders on absurd. Even while sitting backstage he somehow looks like he's posing for a magazine cover.
