Mourn Despana

'Archangel' Mourn Despana is an American professional e-wrestler who competes for Lords of Pain Wrestling (LPW) on its Pyromania brand.

He is currently the #1 contender to the LPW Pure Wrestling Championship.

History
Born and raised in Seattle, Washington as Gabriel Jiménez to a Mexican-American father and a Japanese mother, Mourn Despana learned very quickly he didn't fit in anywhere. He has high intelligence and used it to graduate from the University of Washington with a masters degree at age 21. His training was done at a dojo in Japan that he uses as inspiration towards his style of wrestling. He has shown resolve in all avenues of life so far that don't involve his personal life.

He has no living family. His adopted father (Hishitogi) was part of a plot to have him murdered and he used his most trusted friend Allana Maemorth to orchestrate a plan to save them both (ending in the death of leaders to a large Yakuza ring and the supposed suicide of his adopted father.)

Recently, he had a situation where in revenge of that action, a gun was aimed at his heart from close range. After it went off it was revealed that the bullet hit him but did not pierce his skin.

These events have lead him to believe he is an incarnation of the Archangel Gabriel.

He later found out Hishitogi was indeed still alive. Mourn needed the help of Allana to once again stay alive when the whole plan was revealed that he was used as a pawn to gain Hishitogi the unopposed leadership of the Yakuza faction.

Professional Wrestling Career
The Rare Breed(2012-2013)

Mourn and Allana debuted at Homecoming 2012 by attacking Scruffy The Janitor and Jeff Watson at the end of their match. His cold delivery immediately align him as a Heel. He always would act oddly respectful outside the ring when addressing other wrestlers, even as far as buying drinks and speaking candidly. In his debut match he teamed with Sixx King in a victory against Blackwell and Wyatt Malone at LPW Pyromania 21.1.

In the upcoming months, he would go into a feud with Joe Citizen. Mourn would use underhanded tactics to win his fist match against him at 21.2. He would then team up with his adversary and Jeff Watson in a six-man tag team match against LPW Insanity roster members Dick Dynamo, The Mighty Dyno Might, and Zenith. After the victory was secured, Mourn attacked Watson but was thwarted by Citizen further driving a wedge between the wrestlers.

Aligning with Nigel/face turn(2013)

He would get a chance at LPW Western States Heritage Championship #1 contender (and future champion) Al but come away with a clean loss after domination the match but losing focus at the end..

Mourn would in the coming months mention how he needed to be around those who are his equal. Nigel Vanderbilt would do the same and at the end of a cage match to end the feud with Joe Citizen (and was a number one contendership match for the LPW Pure Wrestling Championship); Mourn, Nigel andSeth Omega would attack Citizen. Omega would retire after the show. The alliance of Nigel and him was was short lived as Mourn would soon have second thoughts on what he did to Citizen

Coming into an opportunity to face off with the newly crowned LPW World Heavyweight Championship holder Eddie B., Mourn would mention candidly how he had reservations on his actions to his fellow wrestler. Even as much as saying:

"I expect some day for (Joe) Citizen to come back after me. When that happens, I will ask for forgiveness.

I am not a thug any longer and I’ll be damned if I do not pay for my mistakes. All I can do from now on is be the man I believe I can be. It starts tonight."

He would later fight Eddie in a tough back and forth match. Allana would try to help Mourn win by hitting Eddie with Brass Knuckles. Mourn and the ref admonished her for the action (though it was behind the ref's and Mourn's back) and be sent to the back by both of them. Mourn would lose clean to Eddie via Lowered Expectations. After the match, Mr. Golden and Sixx King would attack Eddie and Mourn signaling their intent to both men (Golden to Mourn, Sixx King to Eddie).

After the attack, Mourn has increasingly been vocal about patience and expectations. He has also been kinder to people around him. It is unknown for sure if this change is permanent but all indications are that Mourn has indeed shown his true self in the recent months.
