Nova is a proud example of a member of the ECW locker room paying its dues.
Nova is renowned for his inventive maneuvers, most of which end up being copied by others on Monday nights including his devastating "Kryptonite Krunch," a reverse Michinoku driver that has racked up numerous wins.
Originally brought into ECW by Raven to assist his nest, Nova broke out on his own as a founding member of the Blue World Order, later forming a promising tag team with his best friend the Blue Meanie before eventually going out on his own, dropping "Super Nova" as his moniker in the process.
Now referring to himself as simply "Nova," he did away with the trademark cartoonish makeup and cape, replacing it with a more aggressive in-ring style. This intensity has caused him to be at odds at times with his current partner, Chris Chetti, but has not precluded them from tag team success.
A textbook example of one graduating from overlooked as just another performer into a respected wrestler in his own right, Nova looks to continue that ascent straight to stardom in Extreme Championship Wrestling.
