Lisa Marie Varon was born in San Bernardino, CA and Only Girl of Three older brothers. Like her brothers she was very athletic growing up making it into Fitness competitions and Fitness Expert Shows. Lisa tried getting into WCW, and didn't quite make it but A meeting with Chyna at A gym changed her life forever. Victoria then debuted in June of 2000, as one of Godfathers "Head Ho". In August 2000 she was thrown through a table and named Victoria. She then disappeared for over a year and began training with MCW and OVW.
After months of rumors Victoria made her re-debut On July 8th 2002 Edition of "HeAT" against Trish Stratus and lost. Then she re-debuted for a second time On August 8th, aligning herself with Molly for a short while. Afterwards she joined Steven Richards, and they became known as the Craziest in WWE. At Madison Square Garden, Victoria captured the Women's Title from Trish in A Hardcore Match at Survivor Series PPV.
After winning the Title, Victoria remained feuding with Trish until she had an even bigger problem the return of Jazz. But not even A Knee Injury could slow Victoria down. Jazz challenged her at the same time as Trish, there three way feud carried onto Wrestlemania as A Triple Threat Match with Victoria losing her title to Trish.

 
Kimberly Davis, better known by her ringname Amber O’Neal, made her professional wrestling debut in 1999 as part of the Professional Girl Wrestling Association.  In the decade that’s followed, she’s established a very successful tag team, become a staple in Shimmer Women Athletes, and appeared in tryout matches for both World Wrestling Entertainment and Total Nonstop Action.
Davis originally wrestled as Amber Holly, although she later changed her name out of respect to Nora Greenwald, professionally known as Molly Holly.  Her first match was contested in the summer of 1999 against Leilani Kai of WrestleMania fame.  Soon, while still performing as Amber Holly, Davis found herself wrestling across the southeastern United States in promotions such as the Caroline Wrestling Federation.  It wasn’t long before she was wearing the CWF Women’s Championship, but unfortunately, her success was soon derailed.  In 2003, just as her career seemed to be taking flight, she suffered a knee injury that would put her on the shelf for a year.
It was when she returned from her knee injury that Kimberly Davis adopted the Amber O’Neal name.  Because of her real-life interest in motocross and motorcycles, she assumed the character of a motocross racer.  From there, O’Neal formed a tag team with Krissy Vaine, collectively known as Team Blondage, and her career began its ascension once again. Continue reading 

Profilin’: Cheerleader Melissa

WWE, TNA, Wrestling
Cheerleader Melissa, a Future Legend.
Some of you might know Melissa Anderson from TNA as Raisha Saeed or Alissa Flash, but she’ll always be Cheerleader Melissa to me.  A second generation star whose been involved in the business since the ripe age of 15, Melissa certainly knows what she’s doing inside the squared circle.  Although schooled primarily under Billy Anderson, she was also the student of Christopher Daniels and Bryan Danielson at different points in her training days.  Their influence can be seen in her matches today.
It’s tough to describe Melissa’s in-ring style, as there isn’t really a clear comparison for her.  If forced to compare her to a current WWE diva, I’d have to say Beth Phoenix, although that’s doing Melissa a grave disservice.  The fact is that comparing her to any “diva” would be insulting to Melissa’s ability.  She’s a powerhouse, that much is sure.  She also spent time training in Japan, which shines through in some of her techniques.  Some of her moves, like her scoop powerslam, are reminiscent of the British Bulldog.  Her numerous suplex variations, including a Northern Lights, often feature a bridge and are likely to put you in mind of Danielson or Mr. Perfect.  She can fly, as her arsenal includes moonsaults and missile drop kicks, and she can also force opponents to tap out with an elevated crab or an especially brutal inverted cloverleaf.  She even gets hardcore, regularly utilizing steel chairs, guard rails, and ring steps.  Her preference, though, is the Air Raid Crash, an over the shoulder driver that looks likely to KO the recipient upon impact.
Cheerleader Melissa adopted the character from which her namesake is derived early on in her career while touring the West Coast.  She worked as a valet for a tag team with a hockey gimmick, and given the sports-themed nature of the wrestlers, it was only natural for Melissa to be a cheerleader.  She became a fixture in ChickFight, appearing at their first ten events and reigning as the promotion’s only champion.  And then, in 2005, Shimmer was launched, and Cheerleader Melissa established herself as one of the premier names in women’s wrestling.
Shimmer is easily the top women’s wrestling promotion in the world, and Melissa is indisputably one of the company’s top performers.  Managing to compete in both ChickFight and Shimmer concurrently, Cheerleader Melissa has participated in some instant classics.  She’s been a part of a series against MsChif, culminating in an incredible Last Woman Standing match.  Melissa & MsChif would eventually put their difference aside and work as a team, collectively known as MelisChif.  The alliance has resulted in a slew of excellent matches, among them a tag team affair that pitted MelisChif against Sara Del Rey & Allison Danger at Shimmer Volume 17 and is widely considered to be one of the best matches in Shimmer history.
Cheerleader Melissa’s alter-ego Raisha Saeed debuted in TNA in early 2008 as a partner toAwesome Kong.  Saeed, billed as hailing from Syria, stood in the corner of Kong for a number of Knockouts Championship matches, often involving herself on Kong’s behalf.  Although it didn’t take long to step into the ring herself, the Saeed character played second fiddle to Kong for the duration of the gimmick.  She wrestled alongside Kong (and later Rhaka Khan & Sojourner Bolt) as part of the Kongtourage until the fall of 2009, at which time tension developed between Saeed & Kong when the duo failed to capture the Knockouts Tag Team Titles.  Raisha Saeed was written off of television after taking an Awesome Bomb through the Impact Zone stage.
Melissa has also appeared sparingly in TNA as Alissa Flash, most recently in a losing effort to Knockouts Champ Madison Rayne after answering an open challenge.  She’s also competed in promotions like IWA Mid-South, the National Wrestling Alliance, and Jersey All Pro Wrestling.  She’s yet to win the Shimmer Title, although given what a total package performer she is, I’m sure that’s bound to change.  If you’re interested in seeing more of Melissa, feast your eyes on this especially violent highlight reel – it’s pretty awesome, just like her.
