She's now looking to prove it elsewhere.

PERSONALITY INFO
Gimmick
The Mad Queen Sophia the Malicious -- Losing the No Surrender Championship in what she considers highly unfair circumstances (losing a submission title without actually submitting) has done a lot to fuck with Sophia’s mind; some would call it mentally weak, others would call it unrivaled malice. Already unreserved, confrontational, and no small amount of angry, Sophia's view of the world has warped to the point that she not only doesn’t see where anyone, anywhere, could measure up to her--but literally cannot see it.
Even when it's been proven.
She regards herself as the best pure wrestler in the world, and to her credit, an 18 month unbeaten streak elsewhere backs that claim up. “Victory above everything else” may as well be Sophia’s motto.

Strengths
01) Bend the Knee: Sophia’s bread and butter is her submissions, and they’re her favored way to win a match. Sophia knows all sorts of ways to stretch people out, and quite enjoys hearing them scream in the process.
02) You Win or You Die: Sophia’s willing to do anything she has to do to win. She’ll risk DQ by holding submissions until the very last second in the name of hurting her opponent, she’ll make use of the ring apron and the barricade and the announce table and basically anything that’s in play--legal or not, in some cases.
03) A Game of Patience: She has no regard for entertaining the fans. If she has to have a match that involves a 14 minute headlock, by god, she’ll hold that 14 minute headlock until an opportunity presents itself. If it means frustrating an opponent? Hey, she's got 10 seconds to get back in the ring. No rush.
04) A Girl is Sophia Pike of Seattle: While most of the Pacific Northwest despises Sophia (for good reason), when it comes to Seattle, they absolutely adore her. It even startles Sophia sometimes, but she fights harder in Seattle than anywhere else, because she refuses to let down “her town.”

Weaknesses: (Answer here)
01) Anger Makes People Do Unfortunate Things: Sophia’s temper has gotten even worse than it used to be; between the unfair (in her mind) loss of what she considers her proof that she was the best wrestler on the planet, her (relative) lack of success in 2019 compared to previous years, and her personal life largely spiraling out of control, Sophia is, to put it very mildly, on a hair-trigger these days.
02) If You Think This Has a Happy Ending...: Sophia’s violent streak was...bad, to begin with. Her anger issues made her a threat at almost any point in a match, and she could be set off at a moment’s notice, and her readiness, willingness, and ability to injure her opponents made her both an effective wrestler, and a danger to herself...but, recently, Sophia’s mental approach to matches has become...well, “off.” She sees conspiracies that aren't there, and on multiple occasions, has named her opponents after her rivals with how desperate she's become to remove people from her path--permanently, if possible.
03) I Demand a Trial by Combat: Sophia has an ego. Nobody will be surprised to hear that. And that ego is particularly easy to offend. Sophia can be goaded into a fight for just about any reason--although, whether that’s good or bad for her opponent remains to be seen.
04) The North(west) Remembers: Sophia is particularly hated in the majority of the Pacific Northwest--for good reason. Most of her career has been spent there, and most of her career has been spent making enemies; there aren’t many places that actually support her, other than Seattle, and any show in Portland (especially), it would be better to just not give her a mic. They may never let her speak.

KNOWN RELATIONSHIPS
Friends and Allies
Misha LeCavalier: One of the closest people in Sophia's life, both personally and professionally, the two formed a team in the Japanese promotion Yugen under the name Nevermore. If there's one person in wrestling Sophia trusts, completely, without question? It's Misha.
Rivals
LEGATO: Sophia regards LEGATO with a certain amount of professional disdain--mainly, because he's responsible for her failure to become the inaugural NPP Champion. While their personal lives have become somewhat intertwined, through relationships and extended families, Sophia still sees him as someone she has to take down. Violently, if necessary.

Misha LeCavalier: Professionally, there's a certain kind of rivalry between Sophia and Misha. It rarely bares any fruit--more often than not, they're allies ahead of rivals, but the two are both hyper-competitive, and have no problem sharing a ring. In head to head competition, they've only ever wrestled to draws to this point.
True Enemies
Shane Atwater: After a long, drawn out rivalry in SVW, including Sophia costing Shane a chance at the SVW Championship and Shane attempting to steal the Midas Touch contract from Sophia, the Emerald City Siren regards Shane as one of her worst enemies. Any match she has with Atwater will be met with a particular kind of violence.

CHARACTER HISTORY/BIO
“Nobody special.”
If there was a Hitchhiker’s Guide entry to the early life of Sophie Pickett, as she was known then, that probably would’ve been it; a socially repressed late bloomer that was picked on and antagonized well into high school. But her later teenage years saw her shed the “ugly duckling” persona, and along with it, the shy, reserved “Sophie” disappeared.
A long-time professional wrestling fan, one of the few bonding experiences she had with her otherwise negligent father, Sophia took an interest in becoming a wrestler after graduating high school. At the same time, she was admitted to the University of Washington’s School of Communication, studying to be a journalism student. However, financial difficulties raised a choice: continue wrestling, or continue college. At the end of her second quarter of her sophomore year of school, she dropped out--and turned herself from Sophie Pickett to Sophia Pike full time.
After finishing training, she was hired by her trainer’s promotion in Seattle, but the company was small-time even for small-time companies. She made the most of it, working in a variety of jobs to make money while waiting for the next show, until November 2014, when Portland Pro Wrestling opened--a, potentially, bigger stage to try her hand at.
However, at the time, PPW was for Oregon, by Oregon, and Sophia wasn’t willing to leave Seattle, so she wasn’t employable by the Oregon-based company. She worked small companies in Washington and British Colombia, waiting for an opportunity to arise to try her hand elsewhere. That opportunity took 16 months, but finally arrived in the form of Hunter Peterson, who invited Sophia to Portland now that it welcomed outsiders.
Sophia’s time in Portland was a successful, if brief, one: in just under two months, she managed a combined record of four wins and two losses. However, following the Outlanders pay per view, the ban that prevented Sophia from being hired by PPW in the first place was put back in effect, and everyone who was hired after it was repealed was removed from the roster, pending a decision on how to move forward.
Rather than wait, Hunter provided the Siren with another opportunity: Sex and Violence Wrestling. She was quickly signed along with Hunter and mutual friend Tyler Hartling, and scheduled to debut on Aggression 94, against Charity Deas. While her tag team efforts in SVW were successful, they ultimately bore no fruit; Tyler Hartling turned on Hunter and Sophia, and the remaining duo collectively known as Sensitivity Training eventually went their separate ways, Hunter largely retiring from in-ring action to become a promoter, while Sophia struck out on her own. She eventually won the SVW Pride Championship by submitting Luci at Climax 2017, and held the title for 114 days, eventually losing it in a triple threat match to Lilly Arthur.
She also drew the attention of Femme Fatale Wrestling, a sister company to SVW, and was signed to their Future Shock developmental brand, something Sophia was begrudgingly willing to do, if it meant making it to the FFW roster, citing FFW as “the place to be, if you’re a female wrestler.”
Sophia began her time in Future Shock by stealing the Aspire Ring after it had been cashed in by Cereza Ithavol for a title match; she would get involved in a brief rivalry with Angelina Fantastica and Cereza over the Ring, with Fantastica costing Sophia her match with Cereza, and Sophia nearly crippling Angelina’s arm later the same night.
During this time, she also competed in the World Crown Syndicate’s Young Guns Cup tournament, where she reached the round of 16 by defeating Hard Knox Wrestling’s Salem Cartier in straight falls, RISE Wrestling’s Chanson Webster 2-1, and becoming the first to ever submit Jackie Fowler, despite losing her match with the Bastard of Bowland 1-2.
Sophia eventually won the Future Shock Aspire Ring, at the same time being named as one of the next potential graduates for the fans to decide on. Having already expressed a disinterest in the Future Shock Championship, she set a goal to reach the 5 defense mark that would see her graduate from Future Shock. She was then embroiled in a rivalry with Gillie Barnes over the Ring, making a successful first defense, but falling short of her second defense. However, the same night as her second defense, she was selected as the third graduate of Future Shock’s relaunch, and would be moved up to the FFW main roster.
Her time in FFW has been remarkably successful--a pinfall victory over former Future Shock Champion, Mallory Bennett, a submission win over the first graduate of Future Shock’s relaunch, Lily-Rose, and a count out draw with Zoey Adler that, while not a victory, saw Sophia blatantly try to injure Adler, while able to leave on her own two feet. She was scheduled to face Artemis Kaiser, however the match didn’t materialize, leaving Sophia to claim that she ran Artemis out of FFW.
Sophia continued to blaze through any competition that was put in front of her in FFW, including a grudge match with Vanessa Cade, en route to becoming the number one contender for the No Surrender Championship, and the reigning champion Natalya Demidov. At Sin and Sacrifice 2017, Sophia defeated Demidov by submission to claim the No Surrender Championship. She has since defended her title 5 times, against Lily-Rose, Savannah Taylor, Felicity Banks, Natalya Demidov, and O.E. Ayano.
For 591 days, Sophia Pike was unpinned and unsubmitted in FFW, until Unstoppable 2018, when she faced Miko Ayano. Despite the re-christened Warp Drive Dragon's relative inexperience in submission matches, she got the best of the Emerald City Siren, eventually choking her unconscious--although Sophia has been in denial of that fact ever sense, frequently claiming she "lost a submission title, without submitting." Her aggression since losing the title has been turned up even higher, although it's had mixed effects for her--she won the Evolution Championship mere months after losing the No Surrender, but was unable to defend it, and had what she would call her worst year, professionally, in 2019.
