Character Background:
Larissa Owens initially created "buzz" on the internet when it was leaked that Tabitha Owens' little sister was going to break into the wrestling business. Who's Tabitha Owens? Only the best female wrestler in the United States of America! Having held countless titles in TOWF (Tabitha Owens' Wrestling Federation), being amazingly undefeated in every federation she has graced her presence with, and being the best "big sister" in the world, Tabitha Owens was quite the big name in the world of professional wrestling, she was even a part-time superhero AND a vegan! One could only imagine the pressure put on Larissa Owens when she made wrestling dirt-sheets internet-wide ignite with activity upon the news.
Was she good? Was she horrible? Would she be the biggest disappointment in the history of professional wrestling?! Keyboard warriors throughout the internet thrived. Arguments would stir, agreements were made, and flame wars would cost millions of internet-reputations to dwindle. Upon her in-ring debut, at the healthy age of twenty-one, Larissa Owens would prove her naysayers unfortunately correct. Despite being trained by her big sister, and Tabitha's not-so-boyfriend Braden Munroe, Larissa was absolutely horrible in the ring. Botches were made, submissions were incorrectly applied, and she was every shade of green on the color spectrum. Larissa Owens. Was. A. Disaster.
The hatred she would garner on the internet was morale deducing. Her Twitter exploded with disparaging tweets, her personal Facebook wasn't entirely personal anymore, and Tabitha Owens fan-sites bombarded her e-mail with death-threats. "HOW DARE YOU MAKE OUR TABITHA OWENS LOOK ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE? DIE, DIE, DIE!" Needless to say, Larissa went MIA, any evidence of her existence erased throughout the internet. Many Halloweens, Easters, Christmases, Weddings, and two seasons of "The Office" were missed as Larissa Owens went into hiding.
The public fueling her need for redemption, Larissa Owens would spend the next two years of her life wanting to prove that she wasn't the "Jan Brady" of the Owens sisters. Enlisting herself at wrestling school in Canada, signing under an alias, and adorning a lucha-libre mask, "American Darling" was born. Trained by Canada's finest, Larissa would learn an entirely new style of wrestling that both enticed the fans and gave her outstanding technical ability. Learning an arrangement of suplexes, the secrets behind a great wrestling-bridge, and an assortment of wrestling locks, Larissa was undoubtedly a natural, even if her initial debut was a complete bust.
The eve of the New Year, Larissa Owens would decide to make her triumphant return back to the United States. Feeling her talent now surpassed her sister's, Larissa would unmask herself at her last Canadian booking in Vancouver, British Columbia on May 12, 2012. Having spent the first quarter of the new year preparing herself, Larissa wasn't prepared for the overwhelming reaction from the crowd. Her unveiling resulted in a wave of hatred, and while "American Darling," was a fan-favorite, "Larissa Owens" wasn't. Through showers of miscellaneous garbage, she would announce that she signed a contract to Innovation Wrestling, a promotion based in the United States of America, rechristening herself as "Larissa 'The Internet' Darling."
