Early Life
Tessa comes from a small wealthy family. Just like the typical professional wrestler Tessa too had spent her whole life dreaming of becoming a professional wrestler, but was often discouraged by her parents and almost driven away from the career after her parent’s obvious hate of her career. Tessa’s parents often verbally abused Tessa put down, favoring her older brother Brandon which caused Tessa to grow closer to her grandfather than her immediate family. When he died when Tessa was only sixteen Tessa decided that it was now time to make her dream come true and make her grandfather proud since she was the only one she knew she could please. Tessa trained through out High School often spending the majority of her time at the gym rather than at home just to avoid the verbal abuse that awaited her inside the doors of her rather large home. After Tessa graduated in the spring of 1999 instead of going to college Tessa continue to follow her dream.
Wrestling Career
Tessa started in the wrestling business in 2002 as nothing more than a woman's division wrestler in the XCWF. As time grew, as did her talents, she found herself bored with wrestling the same women week in and week out. She hoped to stay with the XCWF and simply start competing with some of the males, but they stuck firm to keeping her in the Women's Division.
In August of that year she signed up for PTC's Golden Turnbuckle Tournament. She made it as far as the fourth round, dubbed the sweet sixteen, losing to the man who would ultimately end up taking the entire tournament, Angelo Deville. She'd proven during this tournament that she was more than capable of wrestling against the opposite gender. That said, she once again tried to negotiate with XCWF, but was once again denied. She had no need to worry though, as the company shut down shortly after.
From there, she was brought into WIW. This is where she met her current fiance Chris Storm, and his tag partner Markus Stone, collectively known as Banned & Exiled~! WIW is where the Petite in Pink's career took off. Not only did she capture the Intercontinental Championship, but she solidified herself as one of their top stars. Sadly, her time in WIW was short lived, as the company closed in November.
From there, Tessa managed to snag a job along with Chris in the (in)famous promotion, PCW. This is arguably the promotion where Tessa's career peaked. In her year there she managed to become the longest reigning tag champions with Chris, and win the Television title on her own. However, it wasn't always good. During the time, Chris and her had a brief split, and their engagement was called off.
OSW began the fall of her career. After PCW had closed, she'd followed her former rivals, now good friends Nerezza and Gaz Green to OSW. Her time there was very short lived, and at the very least, forgettable.
From there she took about a months worth of time off. She surprisingly landed a job in RPW, where she ended up reuniting with Chris. At first the two found it difficult to coexist, but after spending some time together, they found what they needed to bring their relationship back to life. Tessa's RPW certainly wasn't at it's peak, but it wasn't rock bottom. She managed to capture the Midsouth Title while she was there, but did not hold it very long. It was there she met the next person she would end up tagging with, Karina Wolfenden.
After RPW's closure, Karina and Tessa formed Clique Clique Boom and managed to capture both PTC and PRIME's tag titles. Just as everything aside from PCW seemed to go, this was another short lived time. Karina and Tessa went their separate ways, and Tessa ended up in entering PTC's second Cruiserweight tournament, where she managed to finish third in a field of 32.
Tessa hoped to continue this momentum, and entered into Global Wrestling where she met current ally Vivica Valentine. Depite the number of friends she had made, this would be her shortest lived stay in a promotion, as she came crashing down after another split with Chris.
Again, Tessa rebounded into another promotion, UWF. This time, she also found herself a new relationship with PTC and UWF legend, Seymour Almasy. The two were undoubtedly a very adorable couple, often argued to be one of the best pairs in the business. However, with Chris in the promotion at the time, and Seymour's ex wife killing herself, things become overwhelmingly complicated for the two, and Tessa ducked out.
Luckily the two still remained close after their split, and Tessa landed a job in GCW. So far she's managed to capture the now defunct Cruiserweight title. Her time in the ring was briefly interrupted by her engagement to Chris, and then a surprise in the form of pregnancy. While pregant, Tessa took up the role of manager for her fiance's tag team, Banned & Exiled~!, who quickly rose to the top of GCW's tag division.
On August 26th, 2007 she gave birth to a healthy six pound, 8 ounce baby girl, Aislinn Elizabeth. She stayed home with her six weeks and watched on while B&E~! continued to dominate the tag division. During this time, the urge to return to the ring really started to kick in, and by the seventh week, Tessa was back in the ring at Devils Night, where she managed to finish 6th.
As great as she performed at Devil's Night, she still felt as if she were trapped in her fiance's shadows, as he finished 3rd. Now, she hopes to break away from that shadow, and establish the fact that not only is she a great tag wrestler, she is also an outstanding singles wrestler. What it will take to do just that, she has yet to find out
