Personality:
Bessie is a kind-hearted, playful, and somewhat goofy individual who loves to make her fans smile. Though she’s no longer the dominant powerhouse she once was, she’s found joy in being the silly, endearing character of Snuggle Bear. She’s a motherly figure to the younger wrestlers, offering advice with a sweet smile but always showing a softer side to her opponents when the match ends. Despite her comedic role, Bessie is no pushover. She still brings a hard-hitting, old-school wrestling style to the ring when necessary. She enjoys bringing smiles to people, even if that means making them laugh with some well-timed belly jiggles or unexpected bear hugs. Her big heart and her even bigger belly are her trademarks.
Backstory:
Wrestling as a job is crazy. Touring all over the world, facing brutal matches, performing stunts that leave fans speechless—but one thing people never talk about? How incredibly tired it makes you! Bessie "Bear" Robinson worked tirelessly in her prime, defying the odds as a trailblazer for black athletes during a time when they weren’t given the same opportunities. A young Bessie endured the sting of segregation and fought tooth and nail to make a name for herself. Her skill was undeniable, and her heart even bigger, as thanks to her performances, she has kept track of the 179 fans who confessed they let go of their hateful beliefs after seeing her wrestle perform.
But Bessie eventually got older. Though her talent didn’t fade, the world changed—and for the better. After years of being a workhorse for her company, she decided to step back, putting over younger talent and focusing on becoming a trainer. When the itch to return to the ring hit, Bessie knew she needed to adapt. She could no longer rely on the same moves that made her a sensation years ago. And then it hit her—why not become a giant teddy bear? Rebranding as Snuggle Bear, Bessie made a "comeback," and fans who didn’t recognize her immediately fell in love with the silly veteran's new gimmick. Snuggle Bear became an instant hit, and Bessie, with a wink and a smile, embraced the role of a fun, goofy mid-carder who would still surprise people with her ferocity.
