An In Story Introduction to the WWE Roster for the First Time Viewer - Part 5

You can check out A, B, C, and D - or choose your own adventure and start here!

Epico (RAW) - We don't know very much about Epico yet, other than that he's Primo's cousin and tag team partner (which makes him Carlito's cousin too, should he ever reappear). They just won the Tag Team Titles for the first time, beating Air Boom (Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston). They had teased an alliance with Hunico on Smackdown a few weeks ago, but signed on with Rosa Mendes instead - a move that appears to have payed off with gold. One has to assume that they're both looking to impress their manager because she is smoking hot, and the happier she is the more she dances the only dance she knows.

Evan Bourne (RAW) - The preeminent high flyer of the WWE and a member of the former Tag Team Champions Air Boom, along with partner Kofi Kingston. Kofi and Evan were on a nice roll as tag champs until they lost the belts and a rematch to Primo and Epico. Don't expect another shot soon as Bourne was just suspended for 60 days due to a wellness violation, so it will be at least two months until we see another Shooting Star Press in the WWE again.


Eve (RAW) - Eve is Kelly Kelly's best friend and tag team partner, and has been her staunchest ally in the battle against Pin Up Strong (Beth Phoenix and Natalya). Targeted by the Divas of Doom because she hasn't spent time on the Indie scene, Eve has stood out as the most talented of the 'home grown' WWE Divas.

More recently she's been the object of Zack Ryder's affections as the two have awkwardly flirted backstage - until Zack finally asked Eve out. She said yes to a date, which turned out to be bad news for Eve and has yet to happen, since the monstrous Kane has been targeting Ryder in order to push John Cena (Zack's friend and number one supporter) over the edge and force him to embrace hate. Kane has taken to stalking Eve to lure out both Ryder and Cena, and it's worked. Eve has had to watch helplessly as Kane has destroyed Ryder several times - once almost murdering him by trying to drag him under the ring and set him on fire (no, really), and most recently herniating one of Zack's discs by Chokeslamming him through the metal stage in front of the Titan Tron. Eve has had enough, and blames Cena for bringing this curse into their lives. One has to wonder if all this turmoil is strengthening her feelings for The Long Island Iced Z, or if she's starting to think that being with the Broski just isn't worth this horror.

Ezekiel Jackson (Smackdown) - Dude is big, and smiles a lot. I mean, he smiles a lot. Honestly, that's about it for this guy. Oh! He loves body slams. I think I've seen him do a match that was just body slams. Not a great experience for me, but he was into it. So... yeah. Former IC Champ, former member of The Corre (with Wade Barrett, Heath Slater, and Justin Gabriel). That fell through so now he's just treading water. I dunno. He's real big, loves body slams, and is just happy to be here, man.
