ENTRANCE & ATTIRE
ENTRANCE MUSIC:
“Professional Griefers” by Deadmau5 ft. Gerard Way
RING ATTIRE:
Various customized t-shirts, various gaudy colored leather pants, and wrestling boots. She'll wear shutter shades and a custom airbrushed leather jacket reading something absurdly cheesy related to her match or opponent on the back during her entrance (If facing Mark Storm, something like "Storm Warning: Forecast Calls for 100% of PAIN", etc.) Not really an attire note, but her hair varies back and forth between brunette and blonde.
RING ENTRANCE:
The lights drop, and multi-colored ones start strobing around as "Professional Griefers" starts up to the cheers of the crowd. Kendall Kingham emerges into sight wearing her regular gear, sunglasses, and an airbrushed jacket.
Kendall bounces on the balls of her toes before making her way down the ramp, slapping a few hands along the way.
She hops up on the apron, runs to an unoccupied corner, and climbs to the second turnbuckle. Raising a fist to a pop from the crowd, she slingshots herself inside, and removes her jacket and glasses as the lights come back on while her music fades.

Kendall bounces on the balls of her toes before making her way down the ramp, slapping a few hands along the way.
She hops up on the apron, runs to an unoccupied corner, and climbs to the second turnbuckle. Unstrapping and raising her title belt to a pop from the crowd, she slingshots herself inside, and removes her jacket and glasses as the lights come back on while her music fades.
CHARACTER BACKGROUND
PERSONALITY:
100% a cheesy babyface. Kendall has always been incredibly ambitious with stars in her eyes. Not the brightest, but she’s a lot more humble and knows her weaknesses now compared to her younger years. Still suffers from a lot of naivete and overtrust, and general white girl obliviousness to her terrible taste.
STRENGTHS:
1. While she really isn't the brightest, if she sets her mind to something and actually focuses she can really excel, as such she has worked really hard to develop a strong consistent gameplan based around arm work that can set up any of her finishers.
2. Really, really good from a technical perspective; that also doubly benefits her as far as endurance since she's not wasting energy via bad technique and knows how to stick to what she's good at.
3. DADDY ISSUES: This will also crop up on weaknesses, but as far as a strength, her desire to be well liked gives her both a high drive to excel, and lets her feed off the crowd's energy.
WEAKNESSES:
1. Again, she's not the brightest so she probably won't be able to improvise new or different gameplans, and will also be susceptible to walking into "traps" (Heel has her chase them outside then boots the boots when she slides back in the ring, they roll outside onto the ring apron so her throat can get snapped off the ropes trying to bring them back in, etc.)
2. While she's quick enough and all, she honestly has marginal athleticism overall, especially for a smaller cruiser. A cool leapfrog spot to avoid a whip into the ring steps, and a diving or springboard uppercut is really as far as she goes as far as athletic stuff.
3. DADDY ISSUES Pt. 2: Her willingness to please makes her highly gullible, and also makes her much more susceptible to being flustered by pre or mid match mind games. She can also spend too much time playing to the crowd.
TAUNTS/MANNERISMS:
1. Just a lot of playing to/firing up the crowd, sliding outside the ring and slapping hands with the front row, etc.
Allies & Foes:
ALLIES
1. FRIENDS AND FANS OF THE FLASHPOINT ZONE
2. Evan Envi* (kinda, she doesn’t approve of his current attitude and tactics but he was decent to her back in the day when she was being shitty so she tries to return that)
3. Dom Harter* (again kinda, doesn’t approve of his current tactics but he has history with her back in SCW and that probably holds more weight than it should due to her over-trusting nature)
FOES
1. Mark Storm
2. BROOKFORD
3. Sloan Talbot

BACKGROUND:
Kendall grew up in an upper-middle class family during the gentification Hell's Kitchen. She was kept kind of insular to the incredibly diverse city around her, sent to private school, and ending up incredibly ignorant as to what was acceptable socially -- TV reality shows, and the occasional watchful eye of her older brother Kyle taking the place of actual parenting. She was always looking for ways to stand out, whether it was through cheerleading, etc., usually finding a way to try and force her way into a spot she wasn't quite good enough for, even if through underhanded means. Her various attempts at stardom, mixed with the rather violent streak she had displayed, and showmanship, ended up sending her to the wacky world of pro wrestling. She started in a tag team on the New York indies with her brother Kyle, who was actually a hell of an athlete, eventually ending up in EXODUS: Pro. After a debut match in Japan (which included several adventures even getting to the arena) where the Kinghams were unsuccessful (losing a triple threat to Andreas Lasiewicz & Sally Talfourd, Short Change Heroes of Park & Cannon took the fall) they quietly exited after Kyle realized his derpy sister was going to get herself killed in that company. She re-surfaced in Full Circle Wrestling with Kyle as her manager, going 1-1before they went under. She dropped off the radar following the untimely passing of Kyle, eventually returning to the business in Sin City Wrestling, where she got a series of odd jobs, hired by then upper management because they thought she was "progressive and hip" (Spoiler: She was neither). After a series of odd jobs by middle management (who had Kendall forced upon them by their higher uos) where she got given important titles to trick her into thinking she was contributing, but meaningless work, she eventually worked her way to director of social media and then GM - ultimately splitting duties with Evan Envi (who had been put in place by the forced out GM Sabra to counteract her).
Kendall was a puppet GM plain and simple, obliviously used to advance the "sports entertainment" agenda of certain parties in upper management while being the scapegoat for however unpopular these decisons might be. She also had her willingness to please taken advantage of by several hungry, villainous, members of the roster. Kendall was convinced Dom Harter could be the future of the company, and formed a group around him called "Kendall's Friendship Coalition" (KFC). She was convinced she was doing a great service by featuring a Canadian (Harter), black dude from New Zealand (Don God), and Mexican (Alex Escobar), later a Russian-American (Lani San Diego replacing Don God). As she started to develop more of a spine and self-confidence, learning to stick up for herself, making decisions that actually you know, made wrestling sense, Lani and Escobar started to grow disenfranchised with her (as well as her main focus being on Dom) and turned on her with a beatdown. She ended up returning to the ring to beat both of them-- Lani at the SCW premier PPV Cancun Clash. There was also a participation in PWP's Queen of the Deathmatch to try and overcome her fears and "shake off ring rust", where she made it to round 2 before losing to Brytain Rollins (this was not her best idea ... by a long shot) Kendall grew increasingly at odds with her free will she'd discovered, being forced into a match against SCW HOF villain David Cyclone with the rules stacked against her, which she won, but got laid out after.
This battle led to an ultimatum where she had to choose to resign or "be a team player again" that she ultimately chose to do the right thing with, but signed herself to a wrestler's full time contract before she stepped down. She had a quite successful run after that, mostly teaming with Daniela Lazar in an oddball team, and being on the victorious "Camp Envi" in a War Games match, before Lazar left the company (again) and she was stuck without a direction. When new ownership took over SCW, she moved to a front office role again, serving as "Minister of Propoganda" (she had no idea what that term means) for long-time fling Conor Blackburn who went from wrestler to Exec. VP of Wrestling Ops. She also has had one last minute fill-in match (losing a hard fought battle) and was made Head Booker for SCW's developmental league FLW in that time. In that last role, Kendall drew the disdain of FLW Champion, the arrogant Kenji Gosenkugi. As part of an effort to make him respect her, she decided obviously the best course to do so was to take a journey to the land of the Rising Sun for the NKP for the Passion of the Juniors tournament, knocking off Jared Ramsey & Anastasia Starling before falling in the semfinals. After she was left in an awkward spot (again) following SCW shutting down & her last opponent in POTJ, Ravenous, taking his life shortly after her match it left her in a weird(er) head space. She focused herself solely on wrestling & sharpening her skills as a competitor. After spending some time at Tiger Muay Thai, she re-emerged on the wrestling scene letting reporter David Scriven know that her goals included facing the best competition at any place that would take her and winning the upcoming Young Gun's Cup. Now, she's signed on the dotted line with FGA's Flashpoint brand to take the next step in her career.
2019 proved to be the most fruitful year of her career. It started off with a semifinal appearance in SSWA’s Young Guns Cup and in FGA she won her first Championship of her career, capturing the 15 Championship from Mark Storm after a rivalry where Storm took every low imaginable to push her buttons, trying to frame her and demean her character for low acts and also bringing up her dead brother. Kendall retained the title with a win against Storm, draw with Cassius Reed and then a win over Reed before dropping the title to Sloan Talbot. She managed to win the Championship back at Final Frontier to become a two time Champion.
