The man known
as "Wolf" lived as a woodsman
and hunter in the Canadian wilderness until he was discovered on a scouting
trip by a professional wrestling promoter. A quiet man who loves nature,
he has his gentle side. He is filled with fighting spirit, however. He was
an instant star in the pro wrestling area, and successfully defended his
title several times. Dissatisfied with the level of competition, however,
he turned in his belt and retired from the ring. He entered the World Fighting
Tournament in search of a rival worthy of his abilities.

Wolf introduced some unique pro-wrestling throws and attacks when he debuted. He was the first 3D pro-wrestler in a fighting game, after all. Wolf's moveset and animation became more impressive with every sequel... it's always been fun tracking the updates to pre-wrestlers in 3D fighting
games, especially. Always loved WWE since the 80's. ;)
As the only professional wrestler
of VF... Wolf always had a big footprint in the series, and is memorable for many reasons in the games. His win poses, his hard-hitting rasslin' throws, his on-the-ground techniques and (in the later part of the series) off-the-wall throws. He might've never been that exciting in looks, but Wolf was always one of the most fun VF characters to use,
IMO. On the
flipside, Wolf's personality isn't entirely "defined"... and in true VF fashion, he says some pretty generic / boring things when he wins. His early costumes VF1-VF2 were straight to the point, yet not too interesting... but Wolf's later costumes got much better. I loved his VF3 "lone cowboy" get-up (that should've
become a new default for him). >_< He also got some great customizations in VF4-VF5. I loved his "long wrestling cape" look. Awooooooo!
