Early Life
Born and raised in Highland Park, Illinois... Vivica Julian Valentine lived the suburban life that most kids dreamed off. She was an athlete since the age of 5 competing in gynastics, swimming, and cheerleading. Although she did great at all three, she excelled at gynastics winning state titles since the age of 8. By the age of 12 she was being recruited by nearly every private high school in Illinois, but instead decided to go to school in Highland Park.
At her time in High School, Vivica was a 3-time All-American in gynastics and in cheerleading. Every college in the midwest was sending scholarships her way and why not? Maintaining a 3.8 GPA, Homecoming Queen, Head Cheerleader, and being the most popular girl in school were all attractive on a resume. But everything seemed so fake... and Vivica got tired of it. She began to get tired of typical High School politics... the rumors, the lying, the backstabbing. So much so that it started to consume her, she ignored all her friends, her grades dropped off, and every night at home turned into a fight. One night after a scuffle with her mom she had enough, at 3am she packed her bags and headed for Chicago.
With no money, job, or place to stay Vivica turned to the underground scene where she made ends meat by making the right friends with prominant underground leaders. This eventually lead her to wealthy business man Christian Zenith in which she became engaged to years later. Her relationship with Christian brought her into the world of professional wrestling, a business she idolized as a child and became reinterested in when exposed to the scene.
Wrestling Career
GLOBAL Wrestling
Vivica J. Valentine was hired into GLOBAL Wrestling on a manager's contract for her then fiance Christian Zenith. While contracted she began to train with Christian occassionally and formed a tag team with him after a couple months in the organization. While the team was highly underused due to Christian's ability as a singles superstar, Vivica continued to train and develop in her own right.
After his first GLOBAL World Heavyweight Championship reign, Christian Zenith formed the stable The Hunting Grounds with new GLOBAL signess Shadow (Lia Ambrosi), Dawn McFarlane, and Tessa Windsor. It was in this faction where Lia Ambrosi first developed a relationship with Vivica and began to train her personally to become a professional wrestler. By the time of Christian's departure from GLOBAL Wrestling in January 2006, Lia Ambrosi and Vivica J. Valentine had become best friends and made their way together to GCW.
Global Championship Wrestling
In January 2006, Vivica J. Valentine surfaced in Global Championship Wrestling in a stable of defectors from GLOBAL Wrestling under the name Dies Irae. Along side Lia Ambrosi, Dawn McFarlane, Virgil Ambrosi, and later joined by Seymour Almasy the stable made a definitive impact on GCW which resulted on Vivica defeating Sam Wolack for the GCW United States Title in her first singles match.
Vivica went on to hold the United States Championship longer than anyone else in GCW History, being the champion for a staggering 247 days. It was at this time that Dies Irae began to crumble, and Vivica went on a losing streak that went on for nearly 3 months. After being attacked from her own Dies Irae teammate Bryan Mayhem and then having her back turned on her by Virgil Ambrosi, Vivica left Dies Irae and ventured into her own... leaving the faction and snapping the losing streak.
In the following months she became a fixture in the GCW Vanguard Championship scene, facing the likes of Rufio, Peter Vetra, and Katie O'Clare before finally coming up just short against Katie O'Clare in a Vanguard Championship match. Moving on, Vivica set her sights on the GCW World Heavyweight Title. Vivica blazed a path through the Warpath tournament for the #1 Contendorship, taking down the likes of Jayce Bradley and GCW Hall of Famer LeStatt Knight before losing to Jordan White in the finals.
Vivica'a attention then diverted to Bryan Mayhem whom she never forgave for the vicious attack that lead to her departure from Dies Irae. After a blood feud that only went down hill after Mayhem destroyed the headstone of her dead boyfriend Markus Blaire and taunted her with fire signifying Markus' death in a fire, Vivica ended up against Bryan Mayhem in an Inferno Match at Dangerous Games where she lost once Mayhem set her arm on fire.
Though much to the surprise of the audience, Vivica entered herself into the Dangerous Games battle royal against the wishes of the medical staff and came out victorious eliminating LeStatt Knight at the end to become the #1 Contendor to the GCW World Title. What followed was a run of epic proportion as Vivica defeated Tony Gamble at the PRIME/GCW Interfed PPV and then Valentine buried Bryan Mayhem alive in tag match along side Lia Ambrosi against Oblivion.
Now faced with the task of facing her best friend Lia Ambrosi at NC-17, tension began to rise between the two best friends as The Establishment began to rise drastically in numbers and amounted an impressive list of talent. With Peter Maxwell spying on Vivica, he knew all the details in her dealings with Steven Caldera's famed stable and cast the light upon her as the newest member. Although these alligations proved to be false when Maxwell revealed Valentine never had intentions to join after losing the trust of all her allies and the fans. Maxwell took it upon himself to join The Establishment in her place.
Now Valentine is left with an estranged friendship with Lia Ambrosi, where trust is all but gone. With tensions high they'll walk into NC-17 as enemies for the very first time where they'll square off in the main event for the GCW World Championship.
