Personality (a brief description of your wrestler as a person and an athlete): Veronica is a thoroughly unpleasant, morally bankrupt ex-CEO turned grappler turned whatever she is now. Fuelled by duelling superiority and inferiority complexes, she seems to always feel on top of the world whilst still relying on a constant stream of affirmations and personal victories to keep herself from spiralling into depression. Always quick with a sarcastic retort or catty criticism, her heart is shrouded by walls of ice that only thaw for a rare few friends (and a secretary she loves to berate endlessly).
Alignment: Heel
Allies (if any): Stella Chalmers-Blythe, Magdalena Waechter, Arcane
Rivals (if any): None considered equal
Strengths (2 or more): Exceptional mat technician, skilled at psychological warfare, fond of cheating and sneaky enough to get away with it
Weaknesses (2 or more): Prone to gloating, short temper, questionable cardio
Preferred Match Type(s): Technically, she'd prefer not to be doing this at all...
Least Favourite Match Type(s): Submission Smash matches and Gift Exchange battle royals. Yup, still sore over those.
Wrestling Style:
Finisher(s) (max. 2 + desperation/big match finisher):
Budget Cutter (From behind opponent, places both hands on their shoulders, kicks off the ground and essentially pulls a brief handstand on top of them before falling to the front, shifting grip to catch their head on the way down and drop them with an elevated Diamond Cutter neckbreaker.)
Market Crash (Big match finish. With her opponent forced into the corner, Veronica will lift them up to sit on the turnbuckle in the typical Superplex starting position, before slipping through the ropes and getting up on the corner behind them. She then grips the opponent in a Full Nelson hold, pulls them to their feet, and jumps back down to the ring, tucking her legs up to her chest midway, so that the opponent lands face-first with all of Veronica's weight driven down onto their spine through the points of her knees.)
Signature Moves (at least 1):
Brought to Heel (Veronica catches one of her opponent's arms in a Hammerlock then uses a sharp kick to the shin to bring them down to their knees. She then plants one foot firmly on the back of the opponent's neck and pushes down while pulling the twisted arm upward. Submission hold.)
The P45 (Overhead Uranage Slam into Anaconda Vise. Submission hold.)
Mile High Club (Released Pump-Handle Suplex - i.e. starts like a Pump-Handle Slam, but then Veronica throws herself onto her back, throwing the opponent overhead like a Fallaway Slam.)
Code Veronica (Dragon Sleeper on seated opponent, usually rolled over so Veronica sits on their back a la Camel Clutch midway. Submission hold.)
Profit and Loss (Reverse-spinning sweep kick transitions into a falling Splits Axe Kick, bringing Veronica's calf down on the opponent's throat.)

Biography (extended background on your character): Veronica Valiant was a successful pro wrestler whose career started with demonic pacts and Bucket of Blood matches (as you do) and ended with the closure of the long-running Divas Unleashed group. Her peaceful retirement ended at the suggestion of her university gal pal Stella Chalmbers-Blythe, who wanted someone she could trust to represent her in-ring at her newly acquired company, Girl Power Wrestling. This would lead to the formation of the Head Office faction, and months of infighting and spiteful booking decisions that most industry pundits believe were a direct cause of GPW's demise.
In the time since, Veronica separated from her husband of many years and went quiet again, until resurfacing in UKWF alongside Chalmers-Blythe as a new stakeholder and management hire. Officially Veronica's grap days are, once again, behind her and she's quite content to remain behind a desk or a microphone, with thugs like the seemingly entranced Magdalena Waechter to do the heavy lifting.
Unofficially, if you want something done right...
