Competitor
Name: Ada Pierce
Pic Base: Alanah Pearce
Past Achievements: x1 Superstar of the Week,
x2 Match of the Week
Alignment: Face
Any history with other partcipants: Denise
DiMarco (Faced off once on First Class in a short rivalry that revealed
Ada’s ability to engage in mind games with her opponents).
Curtis (Influenced Ada’s interest in IIW, big fan of his energy
and intensity)
Summary
of character's story: Ada Pierce grew up
in the arcades, influenced greatly by fighting games. After years
of dealing with bullies who shunned her for her interests, Ada
snapped when she couldn’t properly defend her best friend,
Vickie Burke, from a group of bullies who’d picked on her.
Fortunately, it was on that very night that she was properly introduced
to Vickie’s father, a Karate Sensei, who took her in as his
pupil. As the years went by, Ada became his prized student, putting
his little dojo on the map. Eventually, Ada decided to sign with
IIW, hoping to test her abilities as a Karateka in the world of
professional wrestling and become a real-life version of fighting
game characters she grew up idolizing. Unfortunately, Ada quickly
learned that pro wrestling is a no holds barred, anything goes-type
environment when she became a victim of several attacks by other
competitors who used her to either make a name for themselves
or send a message to the locker room. Vowing to never regress
to the harmless girl she used to be, Ada snapped again, turning
up the intensity and overcoming her inner demons as she waged
a war against those who wronged her. She successfully defeated
Jamie Riott on First Class’ first ever PPV, Malevolence,
and is now pursuing the woman that nearly ended her career: Mercedes-Jane
Debonair.

w/ description:
1) K.O.! - Heel Kick - Ada turns her back to her opponent before
locking onto her target and throwing out the spinning heel kick.
Sometimes preceded by a jab/roundhouse kick combo but can be thrown
out without warning.
2) Fifty-Fifty - Ada fakes a low kick before nearly decapitating
her opponent with a spinning Skull Kick. In order to create a
real-life fifty-fifty scenario, Ada may follow up on her low kick
to set up the K.O.! finisher, forcing her opponents who study
her matches to predict what she may do. Guard low and get your
head kicked in or guard high in anticipation of the Skull Kick
and get taken down for the K.O.!. There’s a 50/50 chance
of survival.
Signititure
w/ description:
1) Ten Hit String - Ada approaches her stunned
opponent and starts teeing off with jumping side kicks, alternating
between her left and right legs ten times. If the opponent is
left open, Ada concludes the string with the K.O.! finisher.
2) Winged Karateka - Ada runs full speed towards her opponent
and dropkicks them against the corner. Usually follows up by running
to the opposite corner and before running back to land another
dropkick to her seated opponent.
3) Dorya! - Ada flies up and lands a jumping uppercut, usually
done to start a comeback when she’s on her knees.

Please
write an entrance for your character: The
intro cut version of Battle Cry by Little V blasts through the
PA system, bringing the fans to their feet as the lights go out
in the arena. The song builds and builds, and as Little V’s
first line echoes through the arena, a single spotlight hits the
top of the ramp, revealing Ada Pierce standing, solid as a rock,
with her head bowed down. With the fans cheering and freezing,
Ada stands still, her eyes closed, taking in every single cheer
from the crowd. It’s when the chorus begins when Ada raises
her head, letting out all of her energy and adrenaline with a
fiery battle cry before making her way down the ramp with purpose
as the spotlight follows her to the ring. As her long blonde hair
flows with the wind, Ada takes her time when she reaches the halfway
point of the ramp, taking the opportunity to high-five and fist
bump several fans. Donning a pair of black foot guards, her hands
wrapped in white tape, Ada has seemingly slightly adjusted her
ring-gear due to the freezing cold atmosphere of the Ice Crown
Tournament. And while it may not have been wise to do so, Ada
maintains her white karate gi, a symbol of her beginnings and
fighting principles.No stranger to training in the freezing cold
and burning heat, Ada doesn’t sweat the atmosphere in the
arena. With a motivated and passionate expression on her face,
the Karateka wastes no time climbing up to the apron before entering
the ring. Pierce has no more time to waste. She’s here to
leave everything she’s got in the ring. Awaiting her opponent,
Ada sits cross-legged in the middle of the ring as the fans cheer
her on.
What
purpose is your character taking part in this tournament? Upon
signing with the IIW, Ada initially expected to be offered a choice
between Mayhem and First Class, but was told that the male and
female rosters were separated. Ada didn’t mind this structure,
taking on whatever challenge she was presented with. However,
when the Ice Crown tournament was announced, Pierce was quick
to register her name during the heat of her rivalry with The Coven.
With zero tolerance for bullies and evil-doers who care little
for their opponents, Ada saw the tournament as an opportunity
to stay ready for whatever challenges 2022 may present in the
world of First Class. But most importantly, it’s an opportunity
for the Karateka to enforce her beliefs and principles across
the IIW’s male and female divisions to prove that her way
is the correct one in a bid to emerge as the company’s toughest
warrior.

Name: "Diamond" Denise DiMarco
Pic Base: Eva Marie
Past Achievements: N/A
Alignment: Heel-leaning tweener
Any history with other partcipants: Nothing
of note, other than a short stint and highly contested match with
Ada Pierce.
Summary
of character's story: Denise didn't exactly
have to come up in the business the hard way. Signed primarily
for her social media following (6 million on Instagram alone),
what she lacks in skill, she makes up in her ability to drum up
a good segment and get a loud reaction from the crowd. Brand deals,
commercials, celebrity parties... Denise is used to living lavish
and being treated like royalty. According to her, being in the
IIW is the perfect content for her YouTube channel (and makes
that obvious with her filming vlogs during matches). Usually never
intentionally malicious, her delusions of grandeur often cause
her to come off that way regardless.

in pink letters. They turn back around and strut down the ramp,
pointing and blowing kisses to the crowd. Tali Zora gets up onto
the apron and sits on the middle rope to make it easier for Denise
Dimarco to get inside of the ring herself. Once inside of the
ring, Denise poses and flaunts, removing her long fur coat to
reveal her special full body attire for the tournament, specially
designed by Gucci to keep her warm during her match.
What

Summary
of character's story: Nova had a relatively
normally childhood, growing up in a happy family. She always enjoyed
watching wrestling with her father and older brother, even though
they laughed at her desire to pursue the career thinking it was
just a passing passion. It wasnt. As soon as she was able, she
hunted down a trainer and began her journey. The passing of her
father set her back a little, putting her in a dark headspace,
but she rallied... even more determined to make it. She studied
many feds before making her decision to sign up to the IIW, looking
to make a name for herself. Now, shes on a roll and wants to be
the best.

mist. Nova struts out to the top of the ramp and strikes a pose,
one hip jutted out, fist high in the air. She is wrapped up in
a fluffy teal robe. Pink and teal pyros shoot off. She tosses
off the robe, to reveal her new insulated tights, and long sleeve
top, holographic and glittering under the lights. She flashes
a grin at the crowd before making her way down the ramp, hips
swaying. She hops up onto the ring apron, leaning back on the
ropes and somersaulting backwards over them. She scampers over
to the turnbuckle, posing once more before hopping down, bouncing
lightly as she waits for the bell.

purpose is your character taking part in this tournament? Just

Marshall begins posing, because Marshall must pose. I mean seriously
he must, it is in his contract. The crowd cheers and Marshall
cups his hand to his ear and moves around each side of the ring
causing the fans to cheer louder at each side. Finally with a
big smile Marshall points at the crowd slowly circling the arena
and then hits a big front double bicep pose as the music fades
out.*

Summary
of character's story: Wilhelm is a monster
hunter. Literally. Hard to believe? Across the 9 realms, Wilhelm
claims to have pursued, fought and killed, countless monsters
typically studied in undergrad folklore and mythology classes,
or by cryptozoologists. His arrival in the tournament is, at best,
a bit spotty. An individual claiming to represent him signed his
name on the dotted line for this tournament. When Wilhelm arrived
for his first medical exam, examiners found him to be in tip-top
physical condition, though appearing in thick animal furs and
dishevelled as though homeless – they were further concerned
about his mental state after hearing him speak nonchalantly about
killing a “skinwalker” the day prior. In many ways,
Wilhelm gives off the air of a man out of a different time and
place, a proverbial fish out of water. When the trainers set him
into a gym to spar, he looked very out of place ad uncertain,
but once a sparring match started, it became clear this man knew
how to fight. Hardy and hailing from northern climes, Wilhelm
claims to be tracking a monster. Could that monster be hiding
in plain sight in the tournament? Not your typical fighter, Wilhelm
doesn’t have named moves. His strangeness got him through
the door, and his versatility, toughness and obvious skill kept
his name on the list of competitors.
Finisher

down permanently, though he’s not always the most graceful.
Signititure
w/ description: See above.
10
wrestling moves w/ description for lesser knowns: Wilhelm
can use any move you can think of, though his particular strengths
are striking, grappling and submissions. He’s a bareknuckle
boxer. His ground game is stellar, and his strikes range from
deadly to strategic.
Please note, his versatility means he can do high kicks, drop
kicks, ddts, superman punches, body slams, etc, but he’s
not formally trained in these moves, so there’s no art to
it. More brutal, and streetfighter-y than showboater.
Please
write an entrance for your character: “Determined”
by Mudvayne starts in. Wilhelm emerges from the back clad in a
heavy fur armor-sort of top and woollen pants. His feet and fists
are taped, and he certainly looks focused on his way down the
ramp, save for it’s like the music was picked by someone
else, and the noise makes him cover his ears on his way to the
ring. Irked, or annoyed by the crowd, the expression in his eyes
is more like a caged animal, than a performer.
What
purpose is your character taking part in this tournament? If
he gains more ring experience, this will decrease a bit the more
accustomed to the crowd, the sights and the sounds he will become.

staring down his opponent in the ring. He smirks again before
stepping forward and starts his walk down to the ring. The fans
reaching out for high fives catch his arms, but don't get a high-five
from Brandon. He makes his way up the steel steps before standing
on the apron. He jumps over the top rope and lands on the mat
before walking up to his opponent, looking down at them as he
smirks again before climbing the middle ropes, placing one foot
on the top rope before letting out another yell, gaining another
loud reaction from the fans before dropping to the mat below.
The song ends as Brandon grabs the top rope and uses it to stretch
before leaning into his corner, waiting for the bell to ring.

Pic Base: Roderick Strong
Past Achievements: NA

Any history with other partcipants: Being
new to the world of professional wrestling, Ethan has yet to have
any interaction with any of the other competitors.
Summary
of character's story: Debuting for the IIW
in the late half of the year, Ethan defeated Ryan McCann in his
first showing on Mayhem. He would follow this up by defeating
TJ Alexander the following episode of Mayhem, two weeks later.
After this, Ethan would align with Josh Attwood, a man he had
trained with in Canada, prior to ever performing professionally.
He would proceed to have the match of his career, facing off with
and barely defeating, Scotty "Silver Bullet" Adams,
in what would be his first ever Main Event match. Having created
a sound record of 3 wins and 0 defeats, Etahn elected to participate
in the multi-promotional, intergender tournament taking place
in an off season for the IIW, looking to further prove his worth
as the best pure wrestler in the world. But first, he must contend
in a six way ladder match at the Red Alert PPV, where the winner
will receive a shot at any title belt (except for the World title).
Will this last match prior to the tournament be a hinderance and
risk going into the tournament? Only one way to find out.

Please
write an entrance for your character: The
Devil Wears Pradas "Big Wiggly Style" erupts. The icy
cold tone of a crash cymbal being smashed twice in quick succession
rings through the arenas PA system before instantly being followed
with an orchestral tantrum of sound. From the stage emerges one
Ethan Rivers, a bit cold. His outfit reflects this, as a sporty
winter jacket is on, his neck engulfed in a scarf, and a winter
tuque sits atop his head. Rather than giving any posing or time,
Ethan, in a fit of discomfort, storms down to the ring. As he
reaches the front of it, he hops to the outside of the apron,
clutching the middle rope, as he scuffs his shoes on the apron,
in some strange sign of respect to the ring itself. He enters
and finds a corner to lean into.
What
purpose is your character taking part in this tournament?
Ethans only goal when entering the realm of professional wrestling
was to prove that he was, internationally, the best recognized
pure wrestler in the world. This inter-promotional, intergender
tournament seemed like the ultimate test thus far in his early
and fresh career.

The bluesy guitar line and drumstick tapping of “La Grange”
by ZZ Top teases the arrival of a wrestling legend as the bundled-up
crowd erupts into cheers, their shouting breaths sending clouds
of warm mist into the air, quickly swept away by the cold winds
from the fans. As the drum fill sends the song into full swing
“The Big Draw” Teddy Shaw emerges from the entrance
with outstretched arms as the fans roar louder. Daisy Shaw follows
in two behind Teddy who is already pointing to the crowd, nodding
and smiling as he switches back and forth between yelling “I’m
back baby,” and “I’ve missed you so much!”
This continues down the ramp until he finally takes a few running
strides and slides under the bottom rope into the ring. He stands
to his feet and wraps his arms tight to his body, mimicking a
shivering gesture before bursting into laughter, striking a confident
pose and pretending to lower a crown up and down upon his head.
What
purpose is your character taking part in this tournament?
Teddy’s final match in the AWE ended in a forfeit due to
a back injury sustained during the match and a loss of the Supreme
Championship to long-time rival and former friend and Chimera
Tag Team Champion partner, “Rockin” Ronny Reynolds.
Forced into early retirement, Teddy is plagued by not being able
to leave wrestling on his own terms, and is determined to go out
in one final blaze of glory by wining the Ice Crown Tournament.

history with other participants:
None. Scarlett has not been involved in
the wrestling scene for 17 years with the exception of her brief
appearance at HWA’s One Night Stand last year.
Summary of character's story: Scarlett grew
up in a well-to-do family living amongst the social elite of Austin
in the city's very exclusive Westlake Hills subdivision. This
woman that we have grown to love, grew up as a rather passive,
quiet young girl. She seldom spoke out for herself, and thus this
behavior opened the door for people to trample her spirits and
to utterly take advantage of her. Suddenly, upon the dawning of
her 14th birthday, tragedy struck--Scarlett's parents separated.
Scarlett
was absolutely devastated by these sudden turn of events. This
led her to emerge into a deep depression. Then, in the midst of
her sorrows, Scarlett grew stronger mentally and physically. She
gained renewed self-confidence and, ultimately overcoming her
struggle with depression. Scarlett found a new passion in both
academic and physical activities. In high school, Scarlett excelled
in Debate and Mock Trial, and while not vigorously concentrating
on her studies, Scarlett began to take up weight lifting and through
this, she first got interested in the wrestling industry.
After
graduating with the ranking of #4 in her class, Scarlett soon
gained admission into the University of Texas at Austin. During
the summer before her freshman year at UT, Scarlett decided to
enroll into Shawn Michael’s Wrestling Academy in San Antonio,
TX, which was only an hour's drive away from Austin. The knowledge
and hands-on experience Scarlett gained at the wrestling academy
would soon aid as the main catalyst to Scarlett receiving her
first job in a major federation. Scarlett, now with 4 years gone
by---a now very impressive 2nd yr. student at UT Law and Ph.D.
candidate at the age of 22, was wrestling in a house show held
in San Antonio just days away from her 23rd birthday. Little did
Scarlett know that this very match would change her life for years
to come.
In
attendance was Hurricane Rage, at the time a prominent wrestler
in FwZ, who was thoroughly impressed with Scarlett’s in-ring
presence so he made the call and contacted FwZ President Lethal
and the rest is history. After winning numerous titles in FwZ,
NFWL, CWF, IEW, UCF, FWA, Scarlett caught the eye of fellow wrestler
Jared Sengir. The two would go on to marry after a whirlwind courtship
and would welcome their son Tyler James Sengir into the world
on October 27th, 1997.
After taking a few years off due to the birth of her son Tyler,
Scarlett reentered the wrestling scene after receiving an offer
from Steven Fury to join the legendary GWA in 2000. GWA was at
the height of its fame when Scarlett joined the roster--boasting
the most talented Valkyrie (Women’s roster) she had ever
encountered. After legendary feuds with such GWA legends and Hall
of Famers as Mei Himagaji, Reina Saiaki, Stephanie Conner, Caprice
De Lioncourte, Pussy Galore, and Jade Everson, Scarlett went on
to capture the GWA Valkyrie championship twice during her tenure
in GWA. Most of Scarlett's time in GWA was sporadic at best due
to commitments with the front office, serving as VP in 2002 during
the height of the fed's popularity. Had she stayed on the active
roster, there is no doubt this 2x Valkyrie champion would have
regained the belt numerous times.
Intermittently
Scarlett, alongside her brother Eric Rayne, would participate
in inter-fed tournaments Last Man Standing (LMS) and When Worlds
Collide (WWC) representing the GWA against their rival fed Fans
Wrestling Federation (FWF). Here, Scarlett would gain inter-fed
recognition and the admiration of fellow Gladiator, the legendary
Johnny Storm.
Johnny
Storm and Scarlett quickly became a couple following her separation
from Jared Sengir and would become engaged to Johnny Storm following
her divorce from Jared a few months later. Although short lived,
their passionate romance was one that gossip magazines and the
tabloids clamored over. For reasons unknown to the general public,
Scarlett broke off her engagement to Johnny Storm in 2003 and
she soon left the GWA and the wrestling world behind. On August
24th, 2003, at Stella Aeternus, GWA’s final show, Scarlett
shocked the wrestling world and made a surprise appearance and
captured the final GWA Valkyrie title.
With
the closure of GWA, Scarlett hung up her wrestling boots for good.
Last year Scarlett made a shocking appearance at HWA’s One
Night Stand, facing off against Syren. After experiencing a stunning
defeat, Scarlett is looking to reclaim her former glory and secure
some more victories under her belt by becoming the future IIW
Ice Crown champion. Scarlett’s future within the wrestling
world past the tournament remains in question.

A
thick rolling fog sets in as the haunting melody of Lies by Evanescence
is heard across the arena. Scarlett is seen in the darkness, her
silhouette illuminated by the glowing red back lights on the entrance
ramp. After 30 seconds have passed, the pyro begins to stream
down from the ceiling, as Scarlett is now fully illuminated by
the twinkling light the pyro brings. She is seen wearing a long
black and crimson leather trench coat / duster jacket with black
leather pants along with knee high black wrestling boots and a
skin tight black corset laced top.
As
the guitar riff hits, Scarlett begins her descent down the entrance
ramp towards the ring, sizing up her opponent, keeping a fixed
glare in their general direction.

climbs up the steel steps leading her into the ring, she pauses
for a brief moment facing the crowd as they chant along.

Scarlett
has now entered the ring and has climbed up the left turn buckle
facing the crowd and the cameras in her general direction, throwing
her fist up in the air as a mixture of cheers and boos are heard
rising from the crowd.
As
the haunting melody continues to play, more pyro is seen streaming
down from above the ring as Scarlett pauses for a few seconds
so fans can get their perfect pictures taken of Scarlett.
THEY’LL
NEVER SEE
I’LL NEVER BE
I’LL STRUGGLE ON AND ON
TO FEED THIS HUNGER
BURNING DEEP INSIDE OF ME
As
the music begins to fade, Scarlett hops down onto the ring apron,
having tossed her jacket to an attendant outside the ring, ready
for the match to begin.

After
experiencing a stunning defeat, Scarlett is looking to reclaim
her former glory and secure some more victories under her belt
by becoming the future IIW Ice Crown champion. Scarlett’s
future within the wrestling world past the tournament remains
