TEAM NAME: Starr/Power
TEAM MEMBERS: Minka Starr and 'Brick' Hauser
BILLED FROM: Flagstaff, Arizona
TEAM/FACTION BIOGRAPHY: The pair originally met training to become wrestlers. Brick was impressed with the younger woman's drive and idealism, and uncharacteristically struck up a friendship with her. Minka's need for 'back up' in another promotion was the impetus for Brick to finally make the leap into the wrestling big leagues. After issues in that same federation they've come to UPRISING for a new start.
ALIGNMENT: Chaotic Good (Minka) Lawful Neutral (Brick)
WHY THEY'D BE CHEERED: Minka's a flashy high flyer who plays to the crowd. Brick's a take no prisoners badass.
WHY THEY'D BE BOOED: Neither wrestler are great technicians, so wrestling purists could have issue with how they fight. Minka's proselytizing can come off as preachy, and Brick's stoicism sometimes makes her seem dull.
TENDENCY TO CHEAT:
- Never (Brick has no qualms about fighting dirty if the rules call for it or giving bad actors a taste of their own medicine, but when they tag she will honor her partner's committment to following the rules)
THEME SONG: 'Medieval Warfare' – Grimes
MATCH TENDENCIES: Minka is Ricky Morton, Brick is Robert Gibson
BACKSTAGE TENDENCIES: Minka tends to take the lead when interacting with others. She's friendly and empathetic, though she will call out wrong-doers regardless of the circumstances, with Brick silently agreeing with her.
FIGHT-ENDING STYLE:
- OUT-WRESTLING: Beats the opponent using their preferred wrestling style.
- SUPERIOR STAMINA: Uses their superb conditioning to wait for the opponent to tire, before ending the fight on their terms.
- ULTRA-VIOLENCE: Focused around brutality, using weapons and their surroundings, leaving their opponent no choice but to concede defeat.
TEAM FINISHERS
1. “Power of Gravity” Brick gives opponent a long stalling vertical suplex, then tags in Minka, who hits Starr Fall (shooting star press off the top rope)
2. “Bricks-krieg!” Minka hits Starr Strruck (superkick) and the gives the hot tag to Brick who charges and connects with the Brickbuster (running somersault blockbuster) - a desperation out of nowhere finisher
TEAM SIGNATURE MOVES
1. Minka runs the ropes and reaches out to tag in Brick. Minka hits a springboard leg lariat on the rebound. Brick enters the ring and follows that up with multiple elbow drops, and then a deadlift bridging fallaway slam.
2. Brick puts opponent in full nelson and drags them to her corner. Minka tags herself in and attacks with Jazz Hands (rapidfire backhand chops) until warned by the ref.
3. Minka dropkicks an opponent at Beatriz who then performs Hit the Bricks (sitout chokebomb)
BACKSTAGE APPEARANCES: Do you want segments and/or backstage interactions to be written FOR YOU or would you prefer to submit your own?
- NO: I definitely want to write and submit my own segments and realize that the failure to do so will result in a lack of involvement in the ongoing plotlines and/or receiving push towards championships.
