Name: Amber Jaye Bane-Ryan
Height and Weight: 5'8" and 132lbs
Hometown: Atlantic City, NJ
Alignment: Neutral
Physical Appearance: Redhead with blue/green eyes and a very slightly crooked nose from being broken and not fixed properly, fair skin that if looked at closely or under the right light betrays scars from years of death matches (especially on her back, arms and torso). Several tattoos (forearm, ribs and hip). Surgical scars around right shoulder and mid back.
Wrestlers Gimmick: Apathetic, ambidextrous dirty boxing trained former carny.
Ring Attire: Cropped black t-shirt, usually sloganed with her own merch or something affiliated with. Black cargo pants, pockets usually filled with unpleasant surprises. Odd converse sneakers. Taped hands and wrists, kinesiotaped right shoulder.
Wrestling Style: Striker/Brawler/Hardcore
Finisher(s):
Originl Sin- Double underhook kick-out DDT
Burning The Lot- Cattle Mutilation
Sawdust In The Blood- Vertebreaker
Entrance:
Pulsing, red lights rolls over the crowd like a rising tide to the opening echoing thudding stomp and clap of 'Dust And Bone' by Syd Duran, fluctuating in time with the heavy beat as it continues into the opening vocals.
Most cheer in anticipation, but there are few who still jeer due to affiliations or just the fickle nature of a wrestling crowd on any given night. Atop the ramp, the lithe silhouette of the Distorted Angel seems to have materialised, soaking up the crowds reaction and energy. Fans reach out for acknowledgement and wave signs in the same way that others lean out over the rail as much as they dare to yell expletives and empty threats- some get a perceptive nod, a sly wink or perhaps even a kiss blown in sarcasm towards the most derisive.
Fluidly, Amber circles the ring- beelining for a camera person before trying to mess with them or talking some Poop down into the camera lens.
Slipping under the rope, Amber doesn't call for fanfare nor adulation, just making her way to the closest turnbuckle so that she might leisurely perch herself on the top with hands clasped and elbows resting on her knees in rather non-plussed outside of the trademark sly smirk seemingly ever-present on her features.
Favorite Moves:
- Ambidextrous strikes (including knees, elbows, backfist etc, feints and dodges all with unusual/unorthodox footwork that is very difficult to predict. Amber is naturally a southpaw but people aren't good at teaching left handers so she learned to use both.)
- Facebreaker DDT
- Yakuza kick
- Running knee to downed corner opponent
- Double stomp
- Planchas and suicide dives (she can fly like a lucha but is generally very reckless in doing so)
- Baseball slides
- Shotgun dropkick
- Bomaye
- Avalanche spider suplex
- "The Calling Card" - Scissored DDT (see Ms Chif Desecrator)
- "Walk Money" - Ground Octopus Hold (see Hana Kimura finisher <a href=\'https://gfycat.com/scaryquerulousgrouper)\' target=\'_blank\'>https://gfycat.com/scaryquerulousgrouper)[/url]
Hardcore signatures:
- Mist spitting
- Thumbtacks (spitting or just generally using in nasty, creative ways)
- Fire (flash paper, fire breathing etc)
Brief history:
Many would argue that Amber Ryan should never have made her 25th birthday.
However nearly 33 (in 2021), the redhead has made it a staple of her career to prove the world wrong time and time again- her family life was always less than stable only having found out within the last year that the woman she grew up believing was her mother, the one who fell into the clutches of high-functioning alcoholism in the wake of marriage seperation was in fact her Aunt. With her real mother having passed when she was in infant in a bag snatch gone horribly wrong.
At age 10, Amber took up Muay Thai kickboxing, partially as a release but mostly because children are percpetive and cruel. Age 13, following years of custodial battles with CPS, she took her life into her own hands and disappeared- literally running away with the carnival. With quick hands, a blurred moral compass and willingness to learn- she found herself accepted into the misfit carnival lifestyle and it was there that her wrestling journey truly began.
Taking up yet another form of martial art 'panantukan' (aka dirty boxing) from a pair of 'freak' Filipino brothers , along with wrestling training under a former legend blackballed from the industry 'Grizzly Parker'- Amber melded everything together into her own raw edged version of offense.
Far from being clear cut and defined, Amber was on the road 8-10 months a year with the carnival after having her first match aged 15- under many assumed identities, masks and appearances word she started to make a name... From fairgrounds and fields to gymnasiums and warehouses, if they had an opportunity for her to fight- she would gladly take it if only simply to do so.
Many, including those she travelled alongside, quietly agreed that while she had potential- her overtly reckless style and early penchant for ultraviolence would lead to her never seeing a big time contract.
After all, she was too out there, too reckless, too violent, too small, too inexperienced... Too... Amber.
It was on this scene she earned the moniker 'Distorted Angel', defined by her somewhat innocent first impressions turned queen hell spawn once things turned towards business. Rings, cages, pits... no place seemed to down and dirty for the redhead to get herself mixed up and soon wrestling expanded into cage fights, bar brawls and any other place she might get to throw hands.
Living out of a duffel bag, a trait she's still known to occasion, she surprised all the naysayers when she signed her first professional contract just months before her 20th birthday in 2008.
Tragedy strikes as it often does with the young, and while the details remain sketchy to this day, at 24 years old... Amber Ryan died in a car crash.
Rumour had it that she wasn't alone in the car, a single vehicle rollover just outside of a rural city in unfavourable conditions, and that she was found alone and DOA at the scene- clinically dead for almost half an hour before she was somehow brought back from the brink. To this day the mystery still remains over what truly happened that night- however the lasting impact still seems to weigh heavily on the shoulders of the redhead years later.
Despite it all, Amber has managed to build a career founded upon high profile unmentionable violence and an ability to simply endure, some even labelling her as unkillable. To this day she's evolved and her style- while still striking based has developed a unique counter offensive edge from years of facing larger opponents.
With a career studded with blood and gold, the apathetic painted hurricane with her irrepressible lack of fucks to give is the ultimate snowball in hell that no one ever gave a chance to.
