Background: If you were to spend a day with Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle, you would realize that they were POLAR opposites. Growing up, sports were not Twilight's forte, but they were Shining Armor's. Studying was not Shining Armor's favorite thing to do, but it was Twilight's. But yet, these two could not be any stronger as siblings. Shining Armor may NOT have liked to study, but he is FAR from a lazy man.

An all-state Quarterback from Canterlot, Shining Armor was the first in the Sparkle family to actually get into sports. Neither his parents, his grandparents, or even his GREAT grandparents were into it. They were also writers, teachers, or doctors. None of that interested Shining Armor, even though he is QUITE intelligent. He wasn't an irresponsible meathead, going out on the town after every game, getting drunk and bedding a broad, but he DOES like to have his fair share of fun.

Instead of going to college for Football, however, Shining decided to take a new path in life...he signed up for the military, to aid Equestria in the War against the Mexicans. He went straight out of high school, and was gone for 7 years, and left when the war was finally over. He returned home to many happy faces, and to his high-school sweetheart, Cadance, for whom he had to leave hanging for 7 years. The night he came back, he popped the question.

Now, Shining Armor returns to sports, but not football. It's a WHOLE different ballgame, because Shining Armor joins the ranks of the professional wrestling world. Coincidentally, with his sister, his brother, and his blushing new-bride.

AT EASE!

Fun facts: Shining Armor enjoys surfing and eating corndogs.
