Brief Background: Vin Halsted witnessed his father get murdered in a robbery gone wrong at the age of 12 while living on the Southside of Chicago. His mother decided to move closer to his relatives in Long Island but Vin opted to stay with a family friend named, Mr. Han, so that he could stay in school and be trained by him. He paid his way through college by bouncing at local dive bars and working as a low level collector. He was discovered by Joe Cranston and was recruited to join HHW. Vin quickly rose the ranks and attracted the attention of numerous promoters. He would go on to attain title after title and accolade after accolade. He took on a personal assistant named, Scarlett, in order to manage his contractual needs and a head maid named, Angelina, who tends to the Halsted Manor. Mr. Han moved in and became his butler when he decided to build Halsted Manor. It started out as a humble estate and it has since grown into a massive castle-like compound that houses multiple studies, grand halls, a private movie theatre, a huge fieldhouse with a training facility that Dorian Yates designed, a labyrinth, a second home for Joe Cranston and his son, Caden, and so much more.
Motivations: Glory; they are obsessed with winning and will stop at nothing to avoid defeat. Going for Gold; all they care about are title belts and winning them. They want to be the best. Punishment; they fight as a way to unleash their frustrations. They just want to hurt people.
