Michael Bishop was born in Chicago, Illinois, May 11th 1987. Times were tough, the job market was hard, and at an early age to help provide for his small family Michael had to take up fighting as a side gig, that turned into a consuming passion. Fighting in the Murderer's row that was the Midwestern Cagefighting scene, Bishop was bloodied early against serial killers, psycopaths, and killers. He would start training in 2003, his amateur debut was in 2005, where he went on to cut through regional scene after regional scene.  In 2007 he debuted professionally, in the United Championship Draft ("UCD"), where he would go on to carve up the Heavyweight Divison. It was here, that Bishop would establish himself in combat sports. Retiring legends, killing champions, and cutting down any challenger that approached- decisively. He would survive through 2 generations of fighters, and would hold the UCD Heavyweight Title until the company sadly went under. He would seemingly walk off into the sunset, establish himself as the greatest heavyweight of all time... until he was dragged back in. 

Professional Wrestling was scene as the new blend of fighting styles, and Bishop quickly took to the scene. Bringing an intense and violent approach to an otherwise nuanced industry, Bishop would spend the next 4 years going through 5 different companies, holding an assortment of titles. He also wasn't blind to adaptation, molding his fighting style he proved he was a true Mixed Martial Artist... by adding Puroresu moves from his time in Japan, along with skilled rope work and cruiserweight antics. 

Late 2021, Bishop is at the height of his career and shows no signs of wanting to stop, or no ceiling. He's the SSW American Heavyweight Champion and Dystopia FC Champion; a double champion. In the last calendar year he's been a triple champion once, and a double champion thrice. All of the titles he's held, he won through blood, and defended in fire until someone else came along and finally beat him. Not an easy task, and it's just the way things are. With Kpro's doors closing, having conquered SSW, and quickly closing in on the top of OWA... Bishop has a new horizon in his sights, a newer company many he's known have gone to... Project Honor.
