Visuals
Steele cut an imposing figure with his lean, sinewy 6'3" frame. His dirty blonde curls were perpetually disheveled, and his steel-gray eyes carried a haunted look. His ring attire consisted of black jeans, torn at the knees, a black tank top or bare chest, and scuffed cowboy boots. He wore white hand tape marked with tally marks and his ever-present cross and military dog tags. A thin scar across his forearms and various battle scars across his body told the story of his violent past.
