Charles Barkley is a former American professional basketball player.
In Real Life[edit | edit source]
Barkley had a long and interesting sports history, first starting in the varsity of his native Leeds College before being scouted for Auburn University (where he also majored in Business Economics). In 1985, he began his NBA career with the Philadelphia 1976, then switched to the Phoenix Suns in 1992, and finally served his last 1996-2000 stint with the Houston Rockets before retiring.
In more interesting news, Barkley also had his own vidya in the form of the two legendary RPG Maker titles; forming the Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden series. Doom Slam!
Oh, and he also featured in Space Jam, where he had all the talent sucked out of them by the evil Nerdlucks.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
The first recorded appearance of Barkley was in a pre-show match prior to 8chanmania XX. In the latter, he successfully defeated a Beheaded Kamikaze.
Barkley later returned for 8chanmania LVI. He fought and won his first match against the Greek general Pyrrhus of Epirus via on of the rare Ringouts/Timeouts, and promptly went on to slam Knuckles Boom and his friend Ugandan Knuckles. The latter offered him to provide him a means to escape the wrestling facility, and although Charles initially voiced stark disbelief over their explanation that the asbestos covering the walls of the ring would play a part in this, he eventually allowed the two to tag along.
He went on and jammed V's poetry, but his dribbling run came to a crashing halt when he fought Dr. Morbis during the quarter finals. To make matters worse, Morbis abducted Ugandan Knuckles for his own purposes - Barkley and Knuckles Boom are currently assumed to hunt after him to retrieve their little critter friend.
During 8chanmania LXV, Barkley teamed up with The Cheetahmen. Their initial victory against Sauron and Dr. Robotnik didn't help them when American Bear and Big Mahu went full American on them.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Barkley has a self-admitted gambling addiction, but does not consider it a problem because he has the money to pay for it.
