PICTURE BASE: Hailee Steinfeld
REAL NAME: Makenzie Judith Rydell
NICKNAME(S): Kenzie, Kenz
AGE: 21
HEIGHT: 5'8"
WEIGHT: 136 lbs.
ALIGNMENT: Face
HOMETOWN: San Jose, California
THEME MUSIC: "I Am" by Hands Like Houses
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION:
CHAMPIONSHIP ENTRANCE
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
NGW Rags 2 Riches 2016 winner.
NGW Five Lakes Champion (03/26/2016 - 06/04/2016)
The second longest reigning NGW Five Lakes Champion in history.
CHARACTER STRENGTHS: With nearly unmatched agility, an almost excessive worth ethic, and inherent military precision, Kenzie makes up for her lack of size with her own unique style in the ring. With powerful strikes using all her limbs, she utilizes the martial arts style of Muay Thai kickboxing with great effect. She's adept at maneuvering around the ring with grace, dodging attacks and flying through the air with ease. She's always learning new techniques to apply to her repertoire, implementing other pieces of martial arts and skills whenever she has the time. She works up the crowd to get them excited, feeding on their reaction.
CHARACTER WEAKNESSES: Kenzie's small frame makes her incapable of lifting most opponents, so she mostly relies on avoiding moves that involve lifting her opponent at all. To that point, she's frailer than most. Even with all the heart in the world, should Kenzie be caught with a powerful move like a single finisher or anything just as devastating, she's out cold. That's why she relies on dodging so often in every way possible, using her flexibility and her reflexes to her advantage. Without that, she'd probably lose every time. She's not the best at talking either. Sometimes, contrary to anything she'd like to admit in public, she'll have lapses in confidence that could easily cost her the victory. That's her biggest weakness of all.
WEAPON OF CHOICE: A composite baseball bat strikingly similar to the one that Valentina Lozano used to retire her training buddy, Ashleigh Powell, in FFW. Kenzie later nearly retired Lorano in retribution with the same baseball bat before being stopped by Powell.
BIOGRAPHY: Kenzie came on the wrestling scene with one hope - she wanted to show everyone watching that it was possible to make it to the top the right way.
With a childhood living in a military family, Kenzie grew up on military bases across the country, and so it was easy to understand why a sense of honor instilled within her over the years. What wasn't easy was making connections with people, since she knew she would just move away in a few months. Despite this, a constant theme in her life was the ability to watch wrestling late at night with her father whenever she got the chance. Whether it be on the couch or in person, Kenzie took every opportunity she had to spend time with him.
After graduating high school, Kenzie joined White Phoenix's Wrestling School instead of college against her parent's suggestions, and she's been hooked on it ever since. After graduating wrestling school, she joined several wrestling federations including most prominently Inferno Wrestling (IW) and New Generation Wrestling (NGW). All the while, she trained with some of the best fighters available such as Adrien Cochrane, Sasha Foote, Melissa Reave, Ashleigh Powell, Mistress Vivi, Justin Brooks, Jan van der Roost, Kenzi Grey and more.
With all that knowledge under her belt and even more to come, now she seeks to make a name for herself in #FSociety
WRESTLING STYLE: High-flying Muay Thai kickboxing with lucha libre, parkour and capoeira elements.
FAVORITE MOVES:
- Muay Thai strikes

THEME MUSIC: "I Am" by Hands Like Houses
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION:
The lights dim. A few rogue spotlights cast over the enthusiastic crowd as "I Am" by Hands Like Houses howls over the sound system. As Kenzie Rydell stood at the top of the stage with a wistful grin on her face, the crowd erupted in cheers as she held onto the moment. Fixing her bomber jacket, she pointed towards the cheap seats with a confident stance and let the admiration rain down on her as she made her way down the ramp.
Making her way to the ring, Kenzie flashed her hazel hues towards several people in attendance. Once she reached the bottom of the isle, a brief weary expression crossed her features. One after the other, she made her way up the steel steps and shot the crowd another proud grin once she made it to the top. Walking across the ring apron, her palm clutching the top rope until she made it to the middle, she turned to face the stage. Spreading her arms like a phoenix, the crowd's emotions audibly intensified. Once the Muay Thai specialist stepped over the second rope, she handed her jacket to someone in the corner and prepared for the match to begin.
