Name: “Everyone’s Favourite Canadian Lady” Adriana Samu
**Note the Canadian spelling of "Favourite"! Very important!!!**
Age or Date of Birth: December 7, 1983
Hometown: Alberta, Canada (born in Red Deer, raised in Edmonton, trained in Calgary, lives in Lethbridge)
Status: Face
Height: 5’6
Weight: 130lbs
In-ring attire: In the ring, she wears black spandex capris and a tank top with a Canadian Olympic Heritage Jersey maple leaf on the shirt. She wears short books and black taped hands.
Casual attire: Outside the ring, she usually wears jeans or cargo pants with tees or jerseys. When she dresses up, it’s usually slacks and a blouse; nothing too fancy. She is often seen with her Rottweiler, Kaos (who is fiercely protective but very well trained), or her albino Red Tailed Boa, Juno.
Appearance description: Adriana has super long black hair which is usually up in a ponytail or braided in cornrows, and blue eyes. She has a tattoo of maple leaves around her right bicep and a dragon on her right calf. Her ears, right eyebrow and tongue are pierced.
Entrance music: “I Love Myself Today” by Bif Naked
Entrance description: I Love Myself Today hits and “Everyone’s Favourite Canadian Lady” Adriana Samu comes out onto the entrance ramp. She rocks out with the fans to her music for a few seconds before coming down the ramp with much energy. She slaps hands and gives autographs on her way down. She poses on the top turnbuckle and flips off to the mat before the bell rings/while she waits for her opponent.
Pic base: Amy Lee of Evanescence (the less-gothic versions)
**Note: Adriana was trained as a mat wrestler and is a skilled grappler, but adapted her style because of her size (or lack thereof). When competing against wrestlers closer to her own size, she prefers to use more ground moves (Jillie gives the writers permission to add grappling moves as needed to Adriana’s moveset, as she won’t need them very often, probably). When competing against larger wrestlers, she obviously needs to use her aerial arsenal to compensate for the size difference.**
10-15 basic moves:
enziguri
moonsaults (all kinds)
shooting star press
planchas (all kinds)
lionsault
springboard anything
spinning heal kick
roundhouse kick
Russin legsweep
superkick
jump kick
elbow drop
crossbody
drop kick (missile and otherwise)
rolling senton
basically any martial arts kicks
suplexes (all kinds)
ddts (all kinds)
sleeper hold
crossface crippler
Boston Crab
traditional grappling moves
Moves from one turnbuckle to the next, coming off with risky move after risky move without giving her opponent the time to get to their feet. This usually ends in disaster for Adriana, in case you're wondering.
5 Signature moves:
Corkscrew legdrop
Corkscrew guillotine legdrop
450 corkscrew splash
Twisting Splash
The People Pleaser (snaps the boys' trunks from the front (ow!) - please credit my roomy and surigate roomy)
1-2 Finisher(s):
SHARPSHOOTAH! (for opponents closer to her size)
Tornado Kick off the top rope (for larger opponents)
Titles/Awards Won:
FCW Tag Team Champion (w/ Stank Lovve, then Kyle Krush)
FCW Women's Champion
NAWA Best Face, 2005
NAWA World Champion
NAWA Most Shocking Moment, 2006
NAWA Best Feud (w/Pandora), 2006
NAWA Television Champion
SNW Texas Tag Team Champion (Y Kores)
Bio: Adriana's a tough girl. She has four older brothers, and she started training with the Harts in Calgary when she was 16. She is good friends with several Dungeon graduates, including most of the Harts, Teddy Annis, and the like, and has patterned her wrestling style after all of them. She has an attitude that rivals Teddy Hart’s, but manages to stay grounded nonetheless. She is a former addict who has been clean since the day after Eddie Guerrero died. Adriana is the former right-hand girl of the late CGH, devoted disciple of the late Chris Benoit, and the former owner and promoter of North American Wrestling Alliance. She gave up the NAWA after realizing that, at just 24 years of age, she was spending more time in the office than in the ring. She is independently wealthy and does this for the love of the sport. She is a girl of principle and honesty, but will give you no second chances when you blow the first. She will not back down from a fight, regardless of the size, gender, or cookie making abilities of her opponent.
