Chess Maniac is a technically-minded luchador worker who first came to prominence in mid 2007 when he started working for MPWF on a regular basis. Nobody really knows much about the worker behind the mask before that point, as Chess Maniac was an entirely new creation given to him by the MPWF management team. His gimmick is that of a "thinking man's wrestler", who likes to slowly take wrestlers apart. There were rumours that when the character was first created he was to have bishops drawn on his costume and therefore would only be able to run from turnbuckle to turnbuckle, never side to side on the ropes, but sadly that never came to pass.
