Entrance Theme: Michael Sembello – ‘Maniac’
Entrance Description:
A very 80s, very neon light show starts up as the drum intro to Michael Sembello's 'Maniac' begin to echo across the arena speakers. As the keyboards join in, Gina Neon steps out, wearing a patterned white track jacket over dazzlingly colourful, totally 80s neon gear, complete with leg warmers and a side-ponytail held up by a scrunchy.
Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night
Looking for the fight of her life
In the real time world no one sees her at all
They all say she's crazy!
As the lyrics start up, she strikes a pose - something halfway between an aerobics stretch and a glamour pose. She then bounces her way down to ringside, slapping every hand in sight, stopping for photo-ops, and generally acting peppy and excited. She then leaps onto the apron before vaulting over the ropes and into the ring, from where she continues to wave to the fans, skip around and throw her arms in the air. She then takes off her jacket and briefly loosens up, before going to offer her opponent a handshake.
Gimmick Description: Perpetually optimistic, bubbly rookie with a passion for all things vintage and a knack for overcoming odds.
Real Wrestler(s) Your Character Wrestles Like: Shawn Michaels (Rockers period), Tito Santana, Ricky Steamboat
Signature Move(s):
Thriller - With the opponent on the floor, Gina moonwalks over to them (complete with 'woo!'), does the twirl, poses, then drops an elbow on them.
Neon Kick - Running kick (usually while yelling NEON POWERRRRR!!)
Back To The Future - corner springboard moonsault
Finishing Move(s):
Can't Touch This - The move starts with a groggy opponent in a standing position. Gina yells out 'STOP! GINA TIME!', then sends the opponent to the ropes. As they rebound, she does the Hammer Dance, and as she twirls, she hits them with a rolling elbow. She then follows this up with a split-legged leg drop once they're on the floor, completing the dance move.
Bio/Brief History:
Gina Carelli grew up as the middle of three children, the other two being boys ・her younger brother Tony and her older brother Vinny. It was through them and her vintage-video-loving father that she acquired her two greatest loves: retro-gaming and wrestling. From a tender age, she wanted to become a wrestler, and was trying to make a promo tape to send to companies before she was even ten years old.
Needless to say, that didn't work ・but it didn't stop Gina from chasing her dream. As soon as she was old enough, she signed up for wrestling school and somehow ・despite a measure of klutziness and sometimes detrimental levels of over-eagerness ・managed to graduate against everyone's predictions.
Also against everyone's predictions, she then managed to find employment with budding New York-area promotion Premium Wrestling Alliance. It was there that she met Nicole Evans, who found herself dragged in by Gina's irresistible magnetic field and taking the young rookie under her wing. An unlikely friendship was therefore formed, leading to the equally unlikely decision to pursue a career as a tag team in Visionaries of Wrestling. Gina herself remains willing to expand her horizons and dip her toe into every available showcase opportunity, explaining her guest appearances for Ronie’s Rasslin’ Services (winning the Rook-Dog Round Up showcase at their New Year 2015 show) and now Pro Wrestling Project.
Accomplishments (Optional):
PWA Television Champion (1x, inaugural – obtained in first professional wrestling match)
RRS Rook-Dog Round-Up 2015 Winner
#1 Contender to VoW Twin Cities Championships (w/Nicole Evans, as the Neon Babes)
