History
Biography
Back in 2002-03, Heidi was one of the first women to start wrestling guys and winning. She became the regional heavyweight champion of a CAL territory called IWA, and she did eventually win the CAL World Title as well.
She quit wrestling in 2007, citing burnout.
In 2009, long term on and off again boyfriend Jeff Andrews was beginning a career renaissance, and Heidi accompanied him, initially as a manager and nagging conscience. However, she got sucked into the WfWA vs Defiance battle, and along with Jeff turned on the WfWA to side with Eric Dane and Defiance.
Heidi initially joined heel stable The Hydra. While part of The Hydra, while teaming with Jeff as The Untouchables, she won the CAL World Tag Titles, and began her bad blood with Tom Sawyer of The Foreshadowing. After losing the tag titles, Heidi had a falling out with her stablemate Bronson Box, and the falling out ended with Heidi kicking Box in the face, leaving The Hydra and turning face. Heidi underwent a career renaissance from there. On the final "Def 1.0" show, she defeated Xavier Langston to win the Defiance Heavyweight Title.
When Def 2.0 started, Heidi had a bad night on the third round of the preseason. Fallout from that led to her getting not just upset but badly beaten by Alceo Dentari, and shortly after that she quit. She came back when the tournament was half-over. She still made it all the way to the finals, but she was pinned by Christian Light. Ten minutes later she was reforming The Untouchables with Jeff, Ronnie Long and Kai Scott. But something had gone wrong, Heidi refused to cooperate with her teammates even after Jeff appointed her, Long and Scott as the Defiance Trios Champs. They lost the trios belts their second defense to Dentari & The Gorillas. The night after Dane returned to Defiance, Heidi kicked Scott in the head during a trios match, breaking up The Untouchables.
Post-Untouchables breakup, Heidi devoted her career to trying to destroy Tom Sawyer and causing as much collateral damage to Defiance as she could. Sawyer challenged her to a match on the Aggro-Crag, but the show before the payperview, Scott broke Sawyer's neck. Heidi started a riot, which lead to Eric Dane himself coming out and challenging her to an I Quit match. The I Quit match was a gory 30 minute spectacle that only ended when, after Dane threatened to gouge out Heidi's eye with a fork and she wouldn't quit, Jeff Andrews threw in the towel for her.
After six weeks of rest and psychological counseling, Heidi returned to Defiance, trying very hard to be her old face self.

Gimmick
Heidi doesn't really have a gimmick. Right now, her persona is overflowing with spite and bitterness. Feeling not just unappreciated but like she's always held to a stricter standard than absolutely everyone else, her current attitude could be summed up in three words - "Why shouldn't I?" As in, "why shouldn't I deliberately try to break the bones of everyone I have to wrestle?" and "why shouldn't I devote my entire career to making Tom Sawyer's life a living hell?"
Strengths
+Unique wrestling style. Her combination of lucha style mat grappling and jujitsu locks give even other submissionists a headache, and if that doesn't work she's got devastating roundhouse kicks.
+Flexible frame. Heidi can absorb headdrops fairly well - she crumples and bounces and then kicks out in two.
+Strong for a girl. She's as strong as any male wrestler her own size. She's still about 10-20 lbs smaller than almost any male wrestler, but she is NOT weak. On the mat, she can twist and squeeze hard enough to really hurt.

Weaknesses
-Susceptible to powerbombs and spinebusters
-Rematches. For some reason, Heidi's had bad luck all her career with rematches. Winning a huge upset and then losing multiple rematches to that same opponent has happened several times.
-Likes to play around during her matches. Pointlessly elaborate submission holds intended to embarrass rather than hurt, and hitting takedowns then letting her opponent back up. That kind of stuff.

Quotes
- Dance like a butterfly, sting like a bee. Kick like a cassowary or a Deinonychus. And in the end, you'll be nothing but a helpless bag of meat.
- OH AND BY THE WAY I HELD MOAR TITLES THAN YOU AND THEY WERE BETTER TITLES TOO SO HAAAA.
- You ain't a hero, boy.You ain't even a sidekick.You ain't even Aquaman.
- We're all too bitter for that... if we weren't called The Untouchables we could be The Bitter People.
- I'm free as the birds. I'm soaring like a fucking eagle. I'm a Haast Eagle and Defiance is my prey - and you're just an unsuspecting nobody who's gonna get your head caved in by my talons... or legs or whatever, the second you step out into the open and make yourself a target. And to restate a tired point, I don't need to wait for a wrestling match to do that.
- I can't literally take your balls, Curtis, I'd get tazed if I tried. But metaphorically? By the time I get done with you, I'll be able to call you a cunt.
