Firstly the most important thing to think of is a name which is pretty obvious but you wouldn't believe how many "excutioner's" I have seen who all have the same gimmick. Well if your wrestler is going to be successful will need an original name. Emphasize on your own name, add a nickname in between your first and last name like FIRST NAME "NICKNAME" LAST NAME. If you don't like that idea for creating your wrestlers name then choose a object or even a material like, Metal, Silk for a female wrestler/valet or shrapnel.

Now you should think of what you want your wrestlers fighting to be. If you want to be original don't choose hardcore or extreme. Choose something like technical or even amature. Along with your fighting style you need to choose a realistic height and weight. If he's a powerful type wrestler then make him tall and weigh more than 250 lbs. If he's a high flyer don't make him 7' and 300 lbs as this is just too stupid but people do actually make unrealistic wrestlers who's attributes don't match there fighting style.

Next up is choosing a gimmick and background. When choosing a gimmick don't choose a undertaker style gimmick of a mysterious wrestler who comes from the dark side. And if possible don't choose a background which has your wrestlers parents being killed and you then run away and learns everything out on the street as that is a popular background used and gets boring quickly. For a gimmick try and be original, try and think of something you haven't seen in wrestling for a while like a wrestler who try's and stops all bad wrestlers and loves everyone and hates wrestling but can get violent when pushed over the edge, or a egomaniac who usually stops during a match to pose for the crowd. For a decent background choose something which suits your wrestlers fighting style, if he's a technical wrestler give your wrestler a rich background who went through a very tough wrestling school before being scouted by a top federation as a young technical wrestler but got injured and had to take a long period out and then is returning into professional wrestling some years on looking to prove him self.

This is all I can think of at the current time but I will be returning to this section soon to improve it.
