Doc Gallows

Andrew "Drew" Hankinson (born December 22, 1983) is an American professional wrestler, best known for working for New Japan Pro Wrestling under the ring name Doc Gallows. He is also known for his time with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), where he appeared under the ring names Festus and Luke Gallows, and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), where he performed as a member of the Aces & Eights under the ring name D.O.C. (Director of Chaos).

Hankinson was also known for his appearances as an impostor of the wrestler Kane, and the tag team partner of Jesse while they were part of the tag team Jesse and Festus on the SmackDown brand. After a few months, he reappeared as the enforcer and "disciple" of CM Punk, sporting a cleaner, militant look, with the Festus character's "real identity" revealed as Luke Gallows.

Festus (historian)

Festus (fl. 4th century), also known as Rufus Festus, Ruffus Festus, Sextus Festus, Sextus Rufus, and Sextus, was a Late Roman historian and proconsul of Africa whose epitome Breviarium rerum gestarum populi Romani ("Summary of the history of Rome" was commissioned by the emperor Valens in preparation for his war against Persia. It was completed about AD 379. The Breviarium covers the entire history of the Roman state from the foundation of the City until AD 369. The book consists of 30 small parts treating events in Roman history in terse overview, mainly focused on military and political conflicts. It is estimated as a work of very low quality.
