Guide Note

Chris Masters is a professional wrestler, formerly with World Wrestling Entertainment. Debuting in 2005 as the narcissistic "Masterpiece," he did bodybuilding poses on the way to the ring, prompting boos from the crowd.

He started the "Matser Lock Challenge," claiming that nobody could break out of his trademark full nelson finisher. He would be proven correct until December of 2006, when John Cena broke the hold. Also that month, during the WWE's "Tribute to the Troops" show in Iraq, Staff Sergeant José Avila also broke the Master Lock with the help of JBL.

Masters received no title runs in the WWE, due to his failure of the company's Substance Abuse and Drug Policy. After his second infraction in late 2007, he was dismissed from the company.

He continues to wrestle on the independent circuit.
