Character Name: Catalina Cortes
Character Age: 22
Pic Base: Tay Conti
Alignment: Face
Twitter handle: @supersmashcat
Height: 5’2”
Weight: 119 lbs
Hometown: Pasadena, California
Entrance Music: POP/STARS 𝐯𝐬 MEGALOVANIA by Dj Cutman
Entrance Description: An alarm blares through the arena, splitting ears and making faces wince. The RadTron flashes: !!!NEW CHALLENGER APPROACHING!!!
POP/STARS vs MEGALOVANIA by Dj Cutman kicks in, an unholy marriage of club-pop and chiptune, as the flash morphs into the name CATALINA CORTES, the O replaced by a public domain version of Litten for the sake of avoiding legal complications.
Catalina Cortes steps through the curtain, be-hoodied in metallic red, with RUDO emblazoned on the back. Her ring gear is a nightmarish swirl of orange and black, the only decipherable symbols being the URL for @supersmashcat and a C for Carnage Wrestling on the right knee pad(specifically her Kinshasa-ing knee). She fires a knee strike into the air, facing them camera, and yanks the hood down to unleash a mess of bleach-blond hair, the left side tied into braids that meet a ponytail in the back.
Her walk to the ring is quick and eager, ending with a dash up the ring steps. One arm hooks under the top rope, leaving the other free to assist with a dramatic hair flip and accompanying smirk. Bounding off the bottom rope, Catalina backflips over the top to land on her feet in the ring, before dropping to one knee and welcoming any accompanying adulation.
Wrestler Style: Lucha-flier with a lot of quick pins and Taekwondo strikes. Also extra flippy-doos.
General Moves (up to 15):
Catalina's offense is accented by needless flare and pizzazz. If she can add an unnecessary flip or spin to make a move look more impressive, she will do it.
Corkscrew Plancha
Somersault leg drop
Tornado DDT; standing, corner, inverted and otherwise
Dropsault
Arm drag; standing, springboard, hand-spring, etc
Tilt-a-whirl head scissors
Cross arm breaker
Rope Hanging Armbar
Kicks; Taekwondo based, strung together in combos when possible - high and low turning kick, jumping turning kick, reverse kick, hook kick
Avalanche victory roll
Signature moves (up to 4):
Blaze Kick - 540 reverse kick, a major go-to since it’s a flashy strike
Nook’s Cranny - Rings of Saturn(the Perry Saturn version, not this PAC shit)
Cata-Rana - Poison Rana; standing, top-rope, springboard variations
Cat’s Cradle - La Magistral Cradle, with the speed turned up to 200% in hopes that its more disorienting to secure a pin
Finishing moves (up to 2):
Marlowe Massacre - Kinshasa; borrowed from and eventually renamed after her former tag partner Christopher Marlowe
Cata-Clysm - Corkscrew neckbreaker
***NUCLEAR OPTION - I KNOW IT ONLY SAYS 2, I’M SORRY***
Silver Arrow - Top rope 630 splash; Catalina’s big move for the toughest matches, not brought out often, due to the extreme risk
Biography:
Cat’s the youngest daughter of an Mexican wrestling dynasty, long since relocated to California and fallen from grace. Her great-grandfather is El Santo Diablo, a legendary Mexican heel as reviled for his depravity as he was worshipped for his in-ring abilities. Her grandfather allegedly combined wrestling with necromancy to limited results, while her father Javier has gone on to have a less impressive career, focusing his efforts and finances to train the next generation of luchadors at Monterey Park’s infamous Templo del Diablo. Her mother Dani is mostly absentee, supposedly being part of a culturally appropriated and highly corporatized clan of ice ninjas that are not knockoffs of Sub-Zero, because he’s not even a ninja.
Despite being seven minutes younger than her twin brother Leonardo, Cat has spent her life as the family’s favored child, due to her natural talents and relentless determination. Her whims were catered to and she was trained in wrestling fundamentals, acrobatics and taekwondo since she was old enough to DDT someone. Her own personal failings, a short temper and inherent arrogance, have been tamed over time, but still tend to pop up at inopportune moments.
Having grown up a super-fan of OWF starlet Moxie Roxie, Catalina insisted on finishing her training at Moxie’s own alma mater, the Flamingo Academy, in hopes of modeling her in-ring style more closely to her idol. Having entered school ahead of her classmates in the wrestling department, her move-set began to incorporate more unnecessary flashiness for the sake of sports-entertaining over wrestling. Catalina’s first catastrophic failure came when she was eliminated in the first round of the academy’s Flamngo Cup, following a backstage incident where she fan-girled over her first meeting with Moxie and was mentally devastated when Moxie called her “Catrina.” After this humiliation to her family, she was exiled from California and joined Carnage Wrestling in hopes of redeeming herself.
Carnage started as an ill-fit for Catalina, who struggled to find a place on the roster, lashing out at her fellow wrestlers and the Legion alike. Having no allies to speak of, Cat was forced into a team with Christopher Marlowe on the orders of then company president JC, who put the two in a tag team championship gauntlet which they surprisingly managed to win. Marlowe helped Cat to reel in her worst impulses, and the Kit-Cat connection went on two have a successful run as the tag team champions. Following Marlowe’s departure from the company, Catalina Cortes managed to win the Carnage World Championship and hold it until the company closed its doors in 2021. After a nearly year-long hiatus, she’s back. Cool.
