Appearance:

• Bass is a tall man with a large, wide frame. He has blond, shoulder-length hair styled into a mullet, and a beard which covers the whole of his lower face, but is trimmed close to the skin, his beard is a darkened brunet shade. Bass also has lightly tanned skin and small eyes that are the same shade as his daughter Tina's. Bass wears a leather vest with red-and-white stripes, white tank top, black pants, leather boots, a pair of gloves, army dog tags, United States flag bandana, and a pair of sunglasses.

Personality:

• Bass is the self proclaimed strongest fighter and he believes it. He also wants to prove to others his strength, and will not hesitate to show it in or out of the ring. This has also led to some instances of smashing people with chairs and hurling insults into a microphone. He is not so arrogant that he cannot accept others as equals, and will easily befriend anyone who can live up to his personal standards of strength and might. He does bear a more caring side for his daughter, Tina, and is very protective over her.

Relationships:

• Tina Armstrong: Bass is Tina's father and is really protective towards her, still viewing her as his little girl. Like most fathers, Bass dislikes her using her sex appeal. He doesn't hesitate to meddle in her affairs, but only out of love and tries to keep an eye on her at all times. This causes friction in their relationship, as Tina sees herself as her own person and wants to make her own choices. Their disagreements often lead to real fights in the ring and Tina more or less wins every time. Although they hardly ever get along, the two can be close at times.
• Zack: Bass had a strong dislike for Zack when he used to fancy Tina, mostly because he didn't want his daughter to be taken away from him by another man in her life, seeing him as a threat to Tina's love for him. (Although Tina has shown no interest in Zack at all.) But overtime, Bass is then on more friendly terms with Zack, since Zack is now modest and reserved with Tina.
• Rig: It seems that Rig and Bass work together on the same oil platform located offshore. Although they seem to get into fights - mostly due to Rig's behaviour - they also appear to get along very well. He was also implied to be unaware of Rig's possible involvement with MIST, or that he was brainwashed, as he drove off Hayate when he found the latter interrogating Rig, and later fought Bayman when the latter implied that Rig is not to be trusted.
• Mila: Mila has been a huge Bass Armstrong fan ever since she was a child. Though she doesn't meet Bass during the fifth tournament, she does meet his daughter, Tina and hopes to meet him through her, which finally happens in the sixth tournament, where she wins against him. According to the trivia entry, "Fan Merchandise," Mila is such a big fan of Bass that she has training goods signed by him, including dumbbells and a chest expander.

Background:

• Bass is an undefeated pro wrestler and undisputed world champion. Somewhere along the line in his career, he met and married Alicia and the two of them had a daughter, Tina. When Tina was six, Alicia died of a disease, leaving Bass to care for his daughter by himself. Bass, driven by his own dream of having his child follow in his footsteps, began to push Tina through a rigorous training regimen. By the time Tina reached high school, she was an expert wrestler. She then went on to become one of the world's most feared pro wrestling competitors.
