Physical Appearance: Jonathan Goodwin follows in the footsteps of his father James. A massive man with short black hair, bluish green eyes, and a naturally fair complexion with a slight tan. Jonathan is heavily muscular with little to no fat content on his entire body having been a strength and fitness fanatic from a young age.

Ring Costume: Black tights, black boots, and white wrist tape. As is customary in the Goodwin clan, Jonathan often comes to the ring wearing a mask; his mask a spiked green demonic mask based off various mythologies.

Biography: The only biological son to legendary wrestler James Goodwin, "Big" Jon Goodwin seems to have inherited all the genetic traits that set his father apart from the pack. Making his debut with his adopted brother, Jonathan immediately created buzz for his massive size and strength, along with some agility. Together, the two seized the HEC Tag Team Titles towards the end of 2013. Still immensely raw for his experience, the potential of "BIG" Jon is massive.

Biography: The adopted son of James Goodwin, one of the pioneering figures of modern pro-wrestling, Samuel James Goodwin began his career as an active wrestler for his father's promotion James Goodwin Promotions in 2005. A very young man, he wrestles under a mask as "Urizen" in the United States, and is blessed with natural athletic talent. While not as big as his father, Jr. uses more speed and cunning then sheer power and brute force. Goodwin Jr. has bounced around for several years, even capturing the BURNING PARADISE tag team championships with his father for two months in 2009. Jr. showed up in KJPW alongside his younger brother "BIG" Jon Goodwin in early 2013 after being introduced by their father, James Goodwin. "Double Goodwin" would dominate the tag division towards the later months of the year after capturing the HEC Tag Team titles. The two would be forced to vacate the titles in 2014 due to lack of company activity. With KJPW's successful return in 2015 however, Double Goodwin once again plan on reclaiming their spot as the top tag team in not just Japan, but the world!
