Past + Personality
Tsubaki Watanabe was like any other girl. She grew up in a loving household, got good grades, and was a delightful young woman. She met her childhood sweetheart at the tender age of ten. Following some cute and silly years of puppy love and awkward flirting, they solidified their relationship and started dating by fifteen, and for years after that, they'd be by each other's side until one day, the man got down on one knee, asking Tsubaki the question of a lifetime...a question she immediately said yes to. And with that, Tsubaki adopted the Ito name. Decades later, Tsubaki was now a mother of two, happy and radiant as ever, but not without her fair share of issues. Her husband had gotten sick in recent years, with health complications on his side of the family cropping up. Sadly, despite the medical treatments, the man would pass away, leaving the love of his life and his children alone with the pain of his passing, but the strength of his memory and each other's company to keep them going.
However, after her husband's unfortunate passing, Tsubaki would find herself riddled with grief and without much to do in her day-to-day life. During the mourning process, she approached her daughter, Akari, and asked her about professional wrestling. She had been following Akari's career, supporting her as any mother should alongside her late father, but hearing the stories made it sound much more enticing. A few days later, Tsubaki had made up her mind, approaching her daughter with the bold idea to become a wrestler herself. Akari was taken aback by this, to say the least. Knowing her mother, however, she couldn't exactly tell her no. She was a grown woman and would do as she pleased. With this in mind, if her mother was going to dive into the world of professional wrestling, Akari might as well be the one to guide her to ensure that she got the best training experience possible.
What followed was a long and arduous year or so of basic training, conditioning, and learning all the fundamentals. Akari didn't hold back, and her mother didn't want her to. While the pain of the slams and holds hurt, Tsubaki found a new sense of energy in her life. The soreness that followed long training sessions was soon washed away by her excitement, making her feel twenty years younger and far more spry than she actually was. Near the end of her first year of intensive training, Akari got Tsubaki enrolled in a small indie promotion where she took to the ring like a fish to water. Having a daughter who was such an experienced and skilled individual proved to be a great help. Akari managed to get the aged housewife back in shape and ready for action, coaching her on a wrestler's mindset. Tsubaki understood that getting hurt in the ring was inevitable and that she needed to protect herself at all times. Despite this daunting task at first, Tsubaki grew into the role of a professional wrestler, even when her body ached...even when she wound up lying on the canvas in defeat...It didn't matter...
To Tsubaki, wrestling was all about good fun and competition. It's not so much about the glory, but the satisfaction and adrenaline she can derive from it. She's not here to win championships, but to find that spark of life again, and she's since found so much enjoyment in it. And now, she's found a place for herself in LAW, managing to secure a position for herself amongst the league's expansive roster, hoping to try her luck and really push herself against some of the most unique and exciting competitors out there.
Personality: Loving, doting, compassionate, and radiant...these are all words that could describe Tsubaki as both a woman, a wrestler, and above all else-...a mother. She's a kind lady who grew up in a mostly traditional household before settling down in a mostly traditional marriage. She understands the core values of family and society, and acts accordingly. Whether inside or outside the ring, she rarely has any attitude about her. In fact, you could say that there isn't a hateful bone in her body. For her, patience is a virtue. After raising two children, Tsubaki has become a VERY understanding and calm person. It takes a lot to push her buttons, but she rarely even raises her voice in frustration. However, she tends to exaggerate the ferocity of her demeanor for the audience, especially when bantering with her opponents or teasing them. She's a very sociable person, and when it comes to feelings of love and desire, she enjoys being fawned over and wanted; it makes her feel young again and leaves her seeking companionship with others.
Trivia
- Tsubaki's record on the indies came out to about four wins and three losses, with one win being a tag match victory alongside her daughter, Akari.
- Tsubaki loves a good romcom movie, especially ones that are charmingly silly and over-the-top.
- Being a mother of two and a former wife, Tsubaki LOVES to cook and will sometimes offer to cook for her opponents. She enjoys feeling useful and providing for others. Besides, nothing beats a good home-cooked meal.
- One of Tsubaki's hobbies includes painting. It's far more relaxing than professional wrestling, but it doesn't quite scratch that same thrill-seeking itch. Her house is decorated with a few of her pieces, her favorite subject matter being landscapes.
- Tsubaki had only recently gotten into the idea of being attracted to other women. Due to her husband's passing, she lost interest in finding another man, which led her to experiment with another woman. She found comfort in the company of another lady and has decided to further explore and indulge this desire, albeit with no plans to pursue anything romantically.
- In her younger years, Tsubaki used to practice karate, but hadn't practiced in many years since marrying and giving birth. Her experience was mostly limited to exercises and practicing forms, rather than sparring or tournament competitions.
- Tsubaki, given her caring and motherly nature, tends to be overly doting, even toward her opponents. It can't be helped, especially if her opponent hasn't disrespected her in any way. She's simply that kind of woman. A mother knows many things, and Tsubaki is quite empathetic to the emotions and plights of others.
WRESTLING INFO
Strategy: Given her lack of experience...especially when compared to other competitors around her age range who possess a previous background in wrestling or fighting...Tsubaki relies mostly on using her weight and wrestling fundamentals to wear down her opponent. She'll begin with your typical holds, finding some success with the more intricate and technical sides of wrestling for the most part. After setting a decent pace for herself, she'll begin to employ some strikes and slams, focusing on wearing her opponent down after wrestling away control from them. However, she must maintain a steady rhythm given her lack of cardio and conditioning before she began training to become a professional wrestler. Due to this, she includes a good number of holds and locks to keep her opponents grounded and busy, allowing herself a chance to reserve and recover some much-needed stamina while still applying pressure upon her adversary. She can triumph over a foe far more skilled than her, but it's certainly much more of a struggle.
Preferred Attacks: Piledrivers, Strikes (Knees, Kicks, Punches, Elbows, etc...), Suplexes, Smothers, and Rest Holds.
Preferred Matches: Standard, Multi-fall (Best of 3/Best of 5), Pinfall Only, Mat/Apartment Wrestling, Bedroom Wrestling, Smother, Iron Man/Woman, and Last Woman Standing.
Attitude towards Hentai: "Oh! I feel flattered knowing that someone admires me so much to ask." (Yes; Females Only)

-Speed: 2/5 - Tsubaki isn't as spry as she used to be, so pacing herself is important now more than ever.
-Defense: 3/5 - Mostly relies on locking up with opponents and countering holds to defend herself, given her lack of combat training and speed.

-Submissions: 2.5/5 - Her arsenal of submission moves consists mostly of the most basic stretches, locks, and holds.
-Power Moves: 3.5/5 - It took some practice, but Tsubaki has built up quite a bit of strength over the course of her training.
-Aerial Moves: 1.5/5 - At her age, high-flying isn't quite her specialty.
