Wrestler Information:
Name: Agnes Ilverson
Nickname(s): (If any)
Gimmick: Hardworking Rookie, Ham ´n Egger out to make good
The granddaughter of Swedish immigrants Agnes grew up in Gary Indiana long after the steel industry had belly-flopped on concrete and growing up in the once prosperous steel town taught her one thing – you have to fight for what you want.
It became sort of a theme in Agnes´ life. Her school grades were average but she always it well in sports, first rack and field later Judo. The wrestling bug bit her while she dated a guy who paid for his gym fees by working as a jobber for traveling wrestling shows. Agnes was hooked b the carnival atmosphere. You could say she got addicted to sawdust. It was the closest thing to real unfettered fun she had seen in years. First she put her handy woman skills to good use, helping assemble and disassemble the ring or fixing the occasional mobile toilet. Soon she got her first wrestling lessons from a grizzled veteran of the carnival sideshows.
Now Agnes kew what she wanted in life. To pay for further training in a Chicago wrestling school she worked at gas stations, in supermarkets and in dry lining, becoming a passable plumber and carpet layer along the way.
Her relationship with the guy went south soon and so did Agnes in the literal sense of the word. She ran with the circus and became part of a wrestling show the travelled across the U.S. They hardly ever had two nickels to their name to rub together but they were family. It´s just that family doesn´t always get along.
One of them disappeared with what little funds the business owned and the wrestling show went bankrupt. Agnes was stuck somewhere in the Midwest with nothing but a few suitcases and an old Dodge Caravan. Just as the bank was about to repossess the car she was approached by Maurice Yates. The man was all silk suits and good manners but much more important he had a job offer. Yates was a sports promoter and manager and Agnes was just what he was looking for – or so he claimed.
Well he got a job offer for her. Still it feels like dealing with the devil.
Ring attire:
Baseball cap and sleeveless top in pink or red, black wet look leggings and old! wrestling shoes, the kind worn in college wrestling forty years or so ago. Once white and now more like cream colored or light brown because of the dirt.
Out of the ring the base cap is still on more often than not combined with flannel shirts, jeans and boots.
Pic Base: Rosanna Beckett
Height: 5´5”
Weight: 134 lbs
Hometown: Gary, Indiana
Theme Music: High Hopes by Bruce Springsteen
Common Entrance:
The lights dim as the guitar and percussion intro of “High Hopes” hits the sound systems. With Springsteen´s first vocals bright golden and white spots light up the ramp where Agnes appears. She raises her arms, giving the double rock horns to the crowd as she walks down to the ring. About halfway there she lowers her arms and her walk becomes a fast jog down the aisle. Agnes slides into the ring underneath the bottom rope, gets back on her feet and runs to the opposite side of the ring, rebounding from the ropes there she comes to a stop in her corner where Agnes takes of her cap. She leans into the ropes waiting for the match to begin.
