Axl Rotten

Brian Knighton is an American professional wrestler, better known as Axl Rotten.

Career

Knighton won a Taipei death match (taped fists with broken glass glued to them) against his "brother" and former tag team partner (they were known as the Bad Breed), Ian Rotten. After that, he teamed with Balls Mahoney on and off (when they weren't having a match against each other), they were known as The Hardcore Chair Swingin' Freaks. After ECW died, Axl has been wrestling on the independent circuit and was recently at both Hardcore Homecoming & ECW One Night Stand.

Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten were recently approached by the WWE with the possibility of being signed to the company, but WWE has lost interest in signing them and are no longer in consideration.
