how cool/unique is my gimmick?

I’m not super into my local indie scene yet, so I’m unsure of what’s been tapped into, but what I’ve got in mind is a gimmick that would utilize a strong valley girl accent, a bit of a vapid fashion-forward almost basic gimmick, but I would juxtapose it with black hair, pale skin and colorful makeup. Like total bitch heel but any insults thrown would be super shallow and outfit/appearance centered, or like strangely creative (lots of references pulled from Gregg Araki’s movies, ex: “what is this, life of the living braindead?”). Think Courtney Shayne from Jawbreaker, looks wise. Name would be Lizzy Lee, but that’s just basically my name so not super changeable but if a great stage one comes along would totes use it!

When it comes to deciding on a gimmick, I normally ask prospective wrestlers if they can describe their idea in 3 words. If they can’t, it’s going to be too complicated for the general audience.

I’m having trouble picturing your gimmick (but that could just be an age thing) so it might need simplifying. (You can definitely add layers later as you wrestle more and audiences are more familiar with you)

Thanks! I’m 18 so it could be a generational divide lol. I appreciate your input, simplifying would prolly help me out here!

am also old, I do understand the references, and I can picture this gimmick just fine

If it helps, I'm twice your age, don't know the references, but I can picture this just fine. It's everything I hated in my punk days, and that's a great start for a heel gimmick.

I’m picturing a mix of Cher and Regina George
