Amelia Blythe
#1
Note for Shows: Considering she's competed all throughout Europe as well as always being a top student in school, Amelia Blythe is fluid in just about every language that originates from that part of the world, and especially so in Spanish thanks to her luchadora girlfriend. While she will stick with English in show segments, do note that she can slip into other languages as necessary, usually Spanish when she needs to have a private conversation with Luz even with other people around. If she knows someone aside from Luz she's speaking with is from another country, she has no problem holding the conversation in their native tongue if it makes them more comfortable, and when dealing with people that grate on her and Luz's nerves she's prone to dropping snarky or insulting comments in Spanish or another language (French being her usual alternative) as she sees fit.

Wrestler's Alias: Amelia Blythe
Wrestler's Real Name: Amelia Blythe
Pic Base: Jenna Coleman (brown hair)

Physical Description: Amelia Blythe is Caucasian with shoulder-length brown hair, which she keeps tied up in a ponytail when she’s competing, and brown eyes. Her in-ring attire consists of a traditional women’s singlet with Blythe in cursive across the front and the gold design of a crescent moon inside of a sun on the back, black boots with golden crescent moon designs on the sides and white wrist tape. The colors of her singlet will often vary, with her most common (and personal favorite) color scheme being black with orchid colored accents. Her entrance attire includes a silk robe with sequins and Blythe in cursive on the back, with the robe’s colors matching those of her attire for the evening (this means her most common robe is black with orchid colored sequins) as well as a black luchadora mask with pink accents that covers her face while leaving an opening at the top for her hair along with having eye holes and an opening around the mouth and chin area also possessing the gold design of a crescent moon inside of a sun at the very top of the mask on her forehead as well as the border around the eyes being made up of white sequins that easily reflect light, creating the illusion that the outlines of the eyeholes of her mask are constantly glowing with tiny white lights, a gift from her partner and girlfriend La Pequeña Luz. When she’s not competing, her casual attire typically reflects the kind of stylish fashion worn by those who are either models or actually have the money to pay for such top of the line designer clothing.


WRESTLING INFORMATION
-------------------------------------------------
Wrestling Style: Technical/Submission. As the youngest child of the prestigious Blythe family, it’s no surprise that Amelia was raised and trained in their preferred wrestling style. Her technique is probably the finest you’ll ever see, and her surgeon-like precision and brilliant tactical mind combined with years of intense training have made her not only the greatest pure wrestler in her entire family, but perhaps arguably the greatest pure wrestler on the planet. No matter who you are or how good you think you may be, Amelia will find a way to get you to the mat and make you submit with little effort simply because, as her estranged father once put it: ‘she was born into this world for the sole purpose of being the perfect wrestler.’ Since befriending La Pequeña Luz, she’s also started to add in some faster-paced aerial offense to her arsenal, although she tries to reserve it only for moments with as little risk as possible for failure, otherwise preferring to stick with what she knows.
Alignment (Face/Tweener/Heel): Face/Tweener (At her core, she’s a good person, and thanks to La Pequeña Luz coming into her life she’s become more comfortable with being who she actually is. The ‘tweener’ aspect is mostly because there might be some moments where she subconsciously slips back into her former cold, bitter, heartless heel-like demeanor in response to how someone might address her, although she’s usually quick to catch it and apologize. She’ll never do this to Luz though, and she acknowledges it’s something she’s working on since being raised all her life to think and act a certain way is not something you can just turn off that easily.)
Years Pro: 5
Theme Song: “No. 14 Moonlight Sonata” by Beethoven into “Victorious” by Skillet

Primary/Submission Finisher: Blight Choke
Primary Finisher Description: Katahajime with Bodyscissors, perhaps better known in wrestling as a Half Nelson Choke or the Tazzmission. This is the signature submission hold of the Blythe family, made famous by Aleister Blythe before being adopted by his wife and later passed down to all his children. Despite her now-strained relationship with her parents, Amelia continues to use the hold considering her impressive track record with it, with many in the British and European wrestling scenes familiar with the family claiming she’s perfected the hold to a degree that no one else could ever match, not even her parents or siblings. To date, the only person who’s actually been able to survive her use of the hold has been La Pequeña Luz, a feat that Amelia still can’t figure out to this day. That said, in a similar vein to how my Thirteen character’s Last Breath submission was treated… with the exception of multi-person matches where an outside party can intervene, once Amelia has this hold applied, she’s winning the match regardless of whether her opponent taps out or passes out, so if she’s to be defeated I’d prefer if she either never attempt to apply the hold or isn’t able to get it fully hooked in. She knows every counter to this hold and has her own counters developed for those situations, and will always find a way to keep an opponent in the middle of the ring so that no rope break will save them.

Secondary Finisher: Eye-Opener
Secondary Finisher Description: Hammerlock DDT. This move was born of the same conversation between Amelia and Luz that saw the latter adopt the Lights Out as her own secondary finisher. While Amelia had a valid point in Luz needing it to not cost herself so many matches by unnecessarily taking to the air, Luz had a surprisingly equally valid point about how Amelia only had the Blight Choke to end matches with (a lingering fragment of how she was raised and trained by her parents who demanded she win every match with that hold as a means of proving her superiority) and how it handicapped her in matches where she couldn’t win via submission. It wasn’t too long afterward that Amelia debuted this move to prove she had more variety in how she could end a match, and while she still has some deep-rooted attachment to winning with her submission hold, she’s at least more likely to using this move to win if need be than Luz is to do the same with her secondary finisher, especially since this becomes her go-to match-ender when she finds herself in a match where she cannot win via submission in any capacity. The name is in reference both to the revelation that led to this move being added to her arsenal in the first place and to Luz for how she opened Amelia’s eyes to what she could be if she was able to move beyond her family’s suffocating influence.

Rare Finisher: Ilumina la Noche
(translation: Light Up the Night)
Finisher Description: Corkscrew Shooting Star Press. Amelia has adopted this move from Luz as a symbol of her deep love and gratitude for the luchadora who waltzed into her life and broke down every barrier she was made to put up for the sake of being her family’s ultimate symbol of greatness and nothing more. That said, Amelia isn’t as reckless with using this move as Luz is, hence the reason why it’s rare you’ll see her do this, especially since it’s so far out of her normal arsenal. Amelia will typically only reserve using this for the biggest stages and/or matches when nothing else is working, and even then, she’ll only attempt the move when she is absolutely sure she’s going to land it, not wanting to take the same blind leaps of faith that her partner is prone to doing.

Signature Moves:
- European Uppercuts
- The Abomination
- Blythe Spite
- Barrier Cage
- Cutting Ties


Signature Moves Descriptions (If Needed):
- While it’s considered a signature move, Amelia has developed a habit of using European Uppercuts very liberally during her matches. Think Claudio Castagnoli in terms of usage and execution, because she will use any variation of the strike that exists however she sees fit and as often as she can get away with in order to keep her opponents reeling.
- Double Omoplata / Figure Four Stump Puller combination, also known as Zack Sabre Jr’s Cremation Lily submission
- Omoplata Crossface. This move was originally adopted from her mother, who used it as a finisher called the “Hypnotic Order.” After her relationship with her parents became strained, she’s continued to use the submission out of spite (hence its current name) despite her mother’s attempts to negotiate having her banned from using the move in whatever promotion she’s competing for.
- Arm Trap Cross-Legged STF, better known as the Regal Stretch. The name of the move is basically what happens when Amelia allows La Pequeña Luz to pick a random name for a new submission hold she devised.
- Arm Trap Neckbreaker

Common Moves:
While the moves listed below are the most concrete list of common movies she can perform, it’s far from everything she can do in the ring. To avoid making this any longer than it already is, the best way I can sum up how Amelia Blythe will typically operate in the ring is to ask match writers to watch a few Zack Sabre Jr. matches. The way he’s easily able to get opponents to the mat, indulge in joint manipulation and seamlessly flow from submission to submission no matter how simple or complex the hold may be is a very accurate idea of how to write an Amelia Blythe match, and I’m certainly not opposed to writers taking from Sabre’s ridiculously deep arsenal if they need more moves to work with. Also, while it’s a bit rare because, as mentioned, she’s not as much of a risk-taker as her partner is, Amelia can borrow common and signature moves from La Pequeña Luz’s repertoire if need be to keep opponents off-balance. Although some of the flashier and more creative stuff is beyond her comfort level at the moment (considering Luz’s lucha libre upbringing pretty much tailored her to those kinds of maneuvers) and she prefers to only go ‘high-risk’ when she has the lowest possible risk of failure, she’s still quite effective with whatever she can borrow from her girlfriend.

- Joint Manipulation
- Ankle Lock (sometimes grapevining the opponent’s leg in the process)
- Bridging / Release German Suplex
- Double Underhook Suplex
- Bridging / Release Dragon Suplex
- Heel Hook
- Bridging / Release Northern Lights Suplex
- Standing Shooting Star Press (only uses when she’s certain she’ll connect; can also use this off the apron to an opponent standing or laying outside the ring)
- Dragon Screw
- Guillotine Choke
- Abdominal Stretch
- Hammerlock
- Drop Toe Hold
- Topé Suicida
- Armbar (pretty much any variation of the armbar you can think of can be employed by Amelia during her matches)
- Single / Double Leg Takedown

Strengths:
+ Pure wrestling ability. Her parents built their family’s legacy on being arguably some of the best in-ring technicians the wrestling world has ever seen, impressive especially by the high standards most in British and European circles hold to, and despite being their youngest Amelia was considered their child prodigy. Her natural ability combined with the intense training she was put through at an early age (to the degree that most level-headed people would consider it borderline child abuse) has effectively turned her into the closest thing you could find for a truly perfect wrestler, to such a degree that if she hadn’t crossed paths with La Pequeña Luz and learned to open herself up more, you could legitimately believe she was an android specifically built to outwrestle anyone due to her former cold, calculating personality and virtual lack of flaws in her technique. No matter how good you are, no matter how much more experience you have or more world-traveled you may be, you are not capable of straight-up outwrestling Amelia Blythe, end of story.
+ Amelia is stubborn and resilient to a fault, although her partner La Pequeña Luz prefers to call it “heart and determination” like what she herself shows. While she likely would’ve developed this after befriending Luz regardless, a lot of this is a holdover from who she used to be, because she was trained to “never show weakness,” the personal mantra of the Blythe family. No matter how much punishment she’s endured, not only will Amelia keep fighting with everything she has, but she’s also mastered the art of maintaining a straight face no matter what so her opponents can never tell how much damage they’ve actually been able to inflict upon her. This is why she’s been virtually impossible to keep down no matter what someone’s thrown at her.
+ Amelia is a very intelligent girl, to the degree that she was effectively the top student in all her classes at school (another thing demanded of her by her parents). Because of this, even if she’s long since changed her tune, she will not hesitate to gameplan around exploiting physical weaknesses or obvious flaws in an opponent’s style to give herself a base to build on during a match. Any lingering or recent injuries you may have (unless it was caused by someone literally right before facing her, in which case she’ll ignore it and even try to call the match off because she’s a huge advocate of competing fairly), anything that would slow down a faster wrestler or take away the strength of a more powerful opponent, whatever might disable your ability to use a finisher… Amelia will study you to figure this out and she will use this against you without a second thought.

Weaknesses:
- Due to her style, Amelia prefers a slower pace where she can slowly grind away at an opponent and pick them apart like a surgeon. Because of this, quicker opponents who can maintain a faster tempo to a match and stay out of her grasp will manage to frustrate her, to the point where even someone as strictly trained and disciplined as her will begin making mistakes in a desperate bid to try and slow things down.
- While it’s a more difficult weakness to exploit so long as she has La Pequeña Luz around to help talk her down and comfort her, Amelia still has some lingering mental conflicts from her family, constantly torn between the freedom she’s finally gained from standing up to her parents and calling them out on how she was raised and treating her like she was only put on this earth to be a trophy they could parade around “in the name of the Blythe family being the greatest in all of wrestling, bar none” and feeling like she still has to live up to all those unreasonable expectations and be the absolute best. If you can get Luz out of the equation to take away her moral support, anyone who’s worth their salt at playing mind games can use this to get into her head and throw her off immensely.
- While Amelia does have the pure ability and intelligence capable of planning around it, her size can still work against her. Larger opponents can use their size and strength to brute force their way out of most of her submission attempts if she hasn’t done enough damage yet to whatever body part she’s targeting, and any throws and suplexes in her arsenal are effectively useless if she can’t get her opponent’s feet off the ground because they’re simply too large or heavy for her.
- If there’s one thing Amelia despises more than anything, it’s cheating. This was the case even before she first met Luz (despite being a heel she would never cheat, as her family held a firm belief that cheating was a sign of weakness and a weak wrestler would never truly achieve anything worthwhile in the long run), and it’s only intensified once she realized Luz valued proper hard work and effort just as much as she did. She will have no qualms about outright abandoning a match if teaming with someone other than Luz that will not hesitate to cheat to win (a “fitting punishment” in her mind for someone unwilling to actually put in the proper effort to win the right way) and will try to refuse any result where a victory is the byproduct of said cheating or interference even if it’s a result of whatever feud her opponent is tied up in. Also, if she’s facing someone that’s coming into that match at less than 100% because they were attacked beforehand, she will refuse to compete because there’s no fairness and nothing to truly gain in “finishing a job someone else started.” If there’s any one surefire way to invoke the harsh tongue and cold demeanor that she’s trying to leave behind, it’s cheating to beat her, something she, like Luz, refuses to let anyone actually get away with if she can help it.

Normal Entrance:
“No. 14 Moonlight Sonata” by Beethoven begins playing as the lights dim a bit. Slowly, Amelia Blythe makes her way onto the stage, putting herself front and center as she folds her hands in front of her, looking like a proper young lady as she looks somewhat solemnly down towards the ring. After a moment of this, the Beethoven piece begins to fade and seamlessly transitions into “Victorious” by Skillet, and as it does La Pequeña Luz skips out from behind Amelia and stands beside her, giving her a pep talk before planting a quick kiss on her cheek which brings a smile to Amelia’s face. The two proceed to lock hands before heading down to the ring, Amelia’s look growing more determined and battle-ready as Luz continues her pep talk. Once they reach ringside, Amelia pulls Luz into a brief but passionate kiss before letting her go as she climbs the ring steps onto the apron, wiping her feet before stepping through the ropes. As the song goes into the chorus, Amelia gives a victorious fist pump to the delight of the fans as she takes a moment to soak in the lyrics before removing her robe and mask and handing them off to Luz on the outside, Luz taking the opportunity to give some last minute advice and encouragement.

Alternate Entrance:
This entrance is only to be used if at least one of the following conditions is met. Otherwise, please use her normal entrance:
- If La Pequeña Luz, or all parties for that matter, are explicitly stated to be banned from ringside.
- If Amelia will be competing solo in a match taking place inside an enclosed structure of some kind. (This is for the sake of promising fairness, though if her opponent ends up getting help from attempted outside interference then Luz will not hesitate to hit the ringside area to try and put a stop to it.)
- If Amelia is in a tag match where Luz is NOT her partner for whatever reason. (Again, for the sake of promising fairness. Such examples of this include Trios, randomly drawn tag matches for Fatal Fortunes, or just a match in general where Amelia is set up to team with someone else for whatever reason would make sense in storyline.)
- If it’s some sort of match where La Pequeña Luz also just so happens to be involved but not as her partner.

Biography:
Amelia Blythe is the youngest daughter of Aleister and Ophelia Blythe, making her a second-generation wrestler as both of her parents spent many years dominating the British and European wrestling scenes both before and after they first met and began dating. Considering the impressive legacy they had started building, it became expected of Amelia and her older twin siblings Edward and Emily to follow in their parents’ footsteps and not only become wrestlers but be considered arguably the best wrestlers in the entire world. To the Blythes, being considered the absolute best, bar none, wasn’t simply a lofty expectation of them thinking too highly of themselves… it was supposed to be their way of life, and anyone who dared to consider themselves better was meant to be challenged and shown how wrong they were as soon as possible in the name of pride. Amelia especially suffered from this crushing burden, not only being pushed to essentially be at the top of all her classes in school but also being forced into a grueling training regiment when she was still a child to mold her into the perfect wrestler once she was finally of legal age to begin competing. This was not just because her parents saw potential in her to carry their family name to heights even they could not obtain, but because they considered Edward and Emily handicapped by the fact that they were twins and therefore should primarily focus on being a dominant tag team above all else, and it only made things worse for Amelia when her older siblings began to rebel a bit against their parents once they started competing, still operating as a tag team but foregoing the family approach of straight-up outwrestling their foes in the ring in favor of using deceit and trickery and winning by absolutely any means necessary.

By the time Amelia was legally old enough to begin competing, she had drowned in her parents’ expectations to the point where she locked away who she truly was, becoming the ‘perfect prodigy’ bearing the Blythe name. Because of this, she quickly developed a reputation for being seemingly unstoppable in the ring, dominating opponents everywhere she went and racking up an impressive undefeated streak in the process. Her first opportunity at championship gold would come near the end of her first full year in the sport when one of the main British promotions she competed for set up a special two-night joint show with a Mexican promotion they had a working relationship with. On the first night, she was one of six participants in a six-pack challenge where both companies’ Women’s Titles were on the line. This is the match where she would also first meet La Pequeña Luz, who was also competing in the match as a representative of the Mexican promotion. While it didn’t happen until about two-thirds of the way through the match, when a submission attempt by Amelia was thwarted with Luz accidentally dropkicking another competitor into her, the two of them proceeded to launch into the kind of unplanned scrap that effectively stole the show and became the entire focal point of the remainder of the match, trading counters and inadvertently working in tandem with incredible synergy to keep everyone else out of the way so they could keep clashing with one another, neither one ever gaining any sort of advantage over one another. While the match ended with neither woman being involved in the finish (which Amelia didn’t technically consider an actual loss on her record), Amelia and Luz continued to go at it as though the bell never sounded, forcing officials to separate them. This incident actually altered the card for the second night, as the matches the two originally had scheduled were shuffled around so they could face off one-on-one. Once again, the two ladies effectively stole the show with a match that would’ve been well on its way to being considered potentially one of the greatest matches of all time, including both sides showing they were capable of using moves from the other’s repertoire despite not being known for that style, but the match was ultimately thrown out with no winner when the owners of both promotions got involved to try and cheat and help their girl win, against the wishes of the competitors themselves, all because of a bet they had made earlier in the show. Amelia had been the first to storm backstage in anger at being ‘embarrassed’ by the whole fiasco, and after a confrontation with Luz backstage in the aftermath, the two bitter rivals had surprisingly reached a mutual agreement that a rematch with a proper conclusion needed to happen at some point.

Amelia would get this opportunity when it came time for an annual talent exchange between the two promotions, and the Blythe prodigy immediately took the offer to compete in Mexico for three reasons: introducing herself to the traditional lucha libre styles so she could learn and adapt to facing them like a proper student of the game, using it as an excuse to finally have some time away from her family (due to slowly mounting tensions with the expectations of her parents and growing sick of the taunting of her twin siblings at their record-setting Tag Title reign occurring at the time while she had yet to obtain any gold) and, most importantly, finally having that proper rematch with Luz. She would get that opportunity at the Mexican promotion’s biggest show of the year, and like their last encounter and this time with no foul play, unwanted or otherwise, the two of them put on a spectacle that had the entire wrestling world buzzing. The most shocking moment of the match came when Amelia finally managed to trap Luz in her family’s patented Blight Choke, a hold that no one had ever escaped from when Amelia had utilized it, and despite spending a horrifyingly long time trapped in Amelia’s clutches, Luz kept fighting the whole way and eventually managed to force a rope break, becoming to date the only wrestler to have ever escaped the hold. The absolute shock over this seemingly impossible feat was enough to throw Amelia off just enough for Luz to hand the Blythe prodigy her very first direct professional wrestling defeat, fair and square. After the show, Amelia took to beating herself up backstage, knowing full well the price of failure once her parents learned of the results. To her absolute surprise, her bitter rival was the one who managed to drag her out of the darkness of her self-loathing with a surprisingly revealing conversation where she learned that Luz was also a second-generation talent and had issues of her own that were similar in a lot of ways to Amelia’s (and as proof that Amelia could trust her word, she even privately violated the sacred lucha libre code to reveal both her face and true name, a fact that IS NOT public knowledge for anyone reading this for something to use for promos). After this, the two began to see each other in a new light and grew to respect one another, even spending a good amount of Amelia’s remaining time in Mexico with one another, making Luz the first person ever to see the real Amelia Blythe and not the wrestling machine her parents had turned her into.

When she returned to England, it was no surprise that she found herself being verbally torn apart by her parents over the defeat as well as taunted and bullied by her older siblings as well. The issues with her siblings pushed Amelia to her breaking point, and she shocked everyone by putting her foot down and challenging the seemingly unbeatable twin tandem for their titles, promising she’d reveal who her partner of choice was at the upcoming pay-per-view. The twins accepted, partly because they’d been dying to see how they measured up against the younger sibling they were both told was superior to both of them in terms of pure talent, but mostly at the ‘request’ of their parents who were willing to tolerate the ‘disrespectful’ tactics they employed so long as Amelia was put back in line. On that night, Amelia further shocked everyone when she revealed her partner to be none other than La Pequeña Luz, who had gone from being a bitter rival to her first real friend before she’d returned from her Mexico excursion. The two young ladies seemed tailored made to work together in some capacity as their chemistry caught even the twins off guard, and with their usual tactics snuffed out by Amelia’s familiarity as well as the wild card that was Luz in general, the youngest Blythe conquered her older siblings and ended their seemingly eternal Tag Title reign, beginning one of her own with Luz in the process.

Since then, both girls have found a ton of success, both in singles action as well as teaming together, with Luz helping Amelia to finally find the strength to stand up to her family and walk away from them to forge her own legacy as Amelia helped to balance out Luz’s own issues with her mother being against her wrestling since her father had died as the result of an accident in the ring. Over the years, the two girls slowly grew closer, aided by the decision to live together when they weren’t traveling for shows since neither one felt comfortable at home anymore, and now they find themselves in a relationship together that has only made their bond with one another stronger. As they quietly distanced themselves from their former promotions, having essentially accomplished all they can do in the British/European and Mexican wrestling scenes and wanting to go somewhere with very little risk of resistance from their respective families and the lingering issues that remain, they heard about SCW and the intrigue of a new tag league they were creating as a celebration of a division they believed was lacking the respect it deserved. Even if they might be too late to join in on the fun, they both agree that SCW sounds like just the kind of fresh challenge they’ve been looking for.

After putting together a relatively impressive run in the company, tragedy would strike at the 2021 Retribution pay-per-view when both members of the team were injured in a four way to determine new number one contenders for the Tag Team Titles. Amelia would be hurled from the ring by a powerbomb from Bison Jones, landing awkwardly on her neck. Thankfully, the damage wasn't severe enough to require surgery, but it would still require some physical therapy to recover from, and Amelia had no plans on competing without her partner after Luz sustained a severe concussion later in that same match. In the wake of this, the tandem would be off SCW television in order to recover, and during that time they negotiated their release with SCW management under the belief that once they were 100% again, they wanted to return to the places where they'd built their legacies in order to rebuild themselves. SCW was more than willing to oblige and always left the door open for them to return when they were ready. After catching a recent Breakdown in Mexico City and making plans to be in attendance for the 2022 Under Attack pay-per-view in London, the odds of Amelia and Luz being ready to try their hand at SCW again seem all but certain.
