~~~Wrestler Info~~~
Wrestler's Name: Mercedes Vargas
Nickname(s): The Argentine Assassin", "Mercy V", "The Black Rose Mamba/La Mamba Rosa Negra", "The Black Rose Bombshell/La Rosa Negra Bombón",
"Latina Heat", "The Verbal Napalm Bomb", "Spanish Fly"
Gimmick: The Fading Star. A woman who despite everything she's accomplished in her career still feels she has something to prove. In her mind, Mercedes feels she deserves more credit than she's given, though most people view her as just another bitter veteran way past their prime and trying to recapture her glory days.
Although a tweener, Mercedes is a proper heel, no backtracking or running away. Loves playing up to the crowd and intimidating opponents when having the upper hand. Outside of that, what you see is what you get. She's outspoken and her sharp tongue usually leads to her being hated by her co-workers, who find her anywhere from being delusional and a motormouth to extremely annoying, depending on the context, and she can't seemingly forget a grudge, going as far as relaying the history on what led to the event in question. On occasion, she is shown to be obnoxious and breaks into accented, finger-waving Spanish to annoy the crowd or her opponent, which she finds invaluable assets, especially when it comes to trash talking, which she finds herself surprisingly good at.
Height: 5'7"/5 feet, 7 inches (1.70 m)
Weight: 125 lb (57 kg; 8.9 st)
Place of Birth: Buenos Aires, Argentina
Alignment: Neutral (leaning to heel)
Pic Base: Jacqueline Bracamontes
Appearance/Attire: When it comes to ring attire, functionability, flexibility, and sex appeal are the keys that Mercedes values above all else. Mostly wears two-piece PVC ring gear consisting of midriff revealing tops (usually of the crop top/halter top/tank top/vest top variety) and black pants or a crop-top/shorts combo. Fingerloop gloves and black boots are standard parts of her ring gear.
Theme Music: "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" by U2
Entrance: Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of “Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me” by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on waist, and overlooking the crowd.
RING ANNOUNCER: Making her way to the ring, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, weighing in at 125 pounds…MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS!
(Viene entrando su camino a la cuadrilátero, de Buenos Aires, Argentina…pesando de 56 kilos…MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS!)
Cheers, boos and catcalls soon greet her. Oblivious and yet satisfied with their reaction for several seconds, she flips her long hair, then makes her way to the ring. As she goes up the steps and walks to the end of the ring apron, she climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back as the camera shows her determined expression-perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight. She vaults into the ring and walks over to the opposite corner where she relaxes along the corner ropes while waiting for her opponent(s) to arrive.
Match Writing Note: During singles or multi-person matches, if Mercedes isn't the first competitor introduced, she simply looks down at her opponent(s) with disdain from the turnbuckle than looks out towards the crowd before entering the ring.
Special Entrance: Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of “Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me” by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas, as per usual, stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on hips, and overlooking the crowd. The bell sounds and the camera pans around the arena once more and then cuts to the ring announcer as he lifts his microphone for the pre-match introductions.
Mercedes goes up the steps and walks along the ring apron as she straddles the top rope, facing the crowd while talking trash. She then walks the rest of the apron and climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back at the camera as she flips her hair, though the determined expression on her face remains- perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight.
