RAVE -- Tommy-Ray Valdez: Growing up in Santa Barbara, Tommy-Ray was best friends with Adam Dennison (they lived on the same street, just houses apart). Tommy-Ray was into Boy's Gymnastics and Soccer. He wanted to pursue a career in a pro sport, he did not care which one.

After high school, he and Dennison went to different colleges and lost touch with each other over the years. Tommy-Ray did not make the cut on any professional teams he tried out for, and was disappointed. One night, while visiting his family on vacation, he went to the local wrestling matches and met up with his old pal, Dennison. After a long talk with his former best friend, both he and Dennison decided to give pro wrestling a try. They met up with another friend from high school, a foreign exchange student named Carlos Orlando. The three of them agreed to go to wrestling school together and see if they could make it in the wrestling world.

Tommy-Ray took the name of "Rave" for his wrestling name. It is a contraction of his own name.

REDRUM: Adam Dennison: He grew up with a father that was into weight lifting. Dennison grew up with a proper diet and work routine. This helped Adam out when he was in high school sports. Adam was on the football and soccer teams in high school and college. Like Tommy-Ray, he aspired to be a pro athlete someday. As fate would have it, Adam broke his leg in the senior year of college playing football and missed most of the season. In turn, pro scouts passed him over in the draft. Adam tried out for some of the pro soccer teams but was turned down. Then, also as fate would have it, he met up with his old pals Tommy-Ray and Carlos. They went into pro wrestling school together and the three of them agreed to give wrestling a shot.

Adam's wrestling name Redrum is taken from his favorite horror movie, The Shining.

NITEFALL -- Carlos Orlando: He grew up in Mexico. He was an exchange student in high school and met Valdez and Dennison when he came to the States. A big fan of wrestling in Mexico, he tries his best to be a high-flyer. Talent, however, is something that he does not have a great deal of, but he is learning.

Carlos wears a mask to the ring and calls himself NiteFall.

The three of them form a group called the R-N-R Express (Rave-NiteFall-Redrum Express).
