He has been competing since January 2004, originally playing {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}, before he made the switch to Peach, and was considered a top Peach player during the Golden Age, as well as one of the top 20 players in the United States. Fitting for their gamertags, he also teamed up with Husband at tournaments, their team being called [[The Newlyweds]].

Wife's playstyle employs a blend of the great Peaches before him, {{Sm|Mike G}} and {{Sm|KrazyJones}}, and he has a generally solid style of play. He was also probably most famous for his prowess on the matchup against {{SSBM|Marth}}, often being called a "Marth-slayer". He humorously boasted that "no Marth, under any circumstance, would ever pose a threat to him"; despite Marth naturally countering Peach, he has an absurd amount of practice against Husband's Marth. Of the few Marth players to win a set against Wife, {{Sm|Ken}} is the most prominent. | ||
