Let's not forget that from day 1 Roxie has been shown to have a dreadful temper and to be lacking in self control. http://www.ma3comic.com/strips-ma3/Brea ... art_book_8 http://www.ma3comic.com/strips-ma3/Yes_ ... _I_thoughtKashTheKwik wrote: ↑Thu Aug 16, 2018 1:30 pmRoxie is very much the ma3 universe’s Sara Del Ray which is a little disheartening. For some context, Sara Del Ray was one of the best female Indy wrestlers, and to a better point, one of the best Indy wrestlers period, in the same era where WWE’s obvious mandate was looks over talent. From the time Del Ray was in her prime wrestling for companies such as Shimmer or Chikara she never got the call because likely the WWE didn’t see her as marketable in comparison to some they rolled as models turned wrestlers (a whole other can of worms for those women and their treatment now that the Divas era is over.) Del Ray did eventually make it... But as a trainer to pass on her skills.
It makes me think that Roxie may eventually get signed by WW3 but in a sort of bleak fashion, to train future stars like Didi. On the other hand I suppose, having a hand on a new generation of stars who will be very talented with work or love the business (also Didi, even if how she got there is...Disheartening) ...well, there are worse things in life.
But you're forgetting that when it comes to wrestling, she's always professional. So this is obviously not why she hasn't been picked up.
Well, to be fair to her -- it's not completely wrong. DiDi may have heard, vaguely, that a lot of women can get results by flashing a bit of cleavage, pouting, and wearing sexy dresses, all of which is completely true even in the real world. But she might not appreciate that, for most women, all those tricks only achieve patchy results, some of the time, whereas for her they function as full-strength mind control almost all the time.rogermart wrote: ↑Thu Aug 16, 2018 8:38 pmI don't find hard to believe that Didi doesn't have a clue how much of an effect she has on people that are attracted to women. It's true that she has some tricks in the art of seduction, but she only views them as something all women do and get similar results, which we know it's completely wrong.
I suspect that we just have to assume that, in the Ma3 universe, female wrestling operates at cartoon-parody levels of sexism and objectification. DiDi can walk into a pro job without trying because boobiezz, Brandy can land a place with a little effort because she's a conventionally attractive woman, and Roxie is screwed because she's a short, muscular tomboy type, regardless of her skills.
That's not true, we were shown that Brandy put in great effort into getting picked up by the WW3 and she was in the indies for some time.
Once again, you're exaggerating her temper. We've seen that she's completely professional when it comes to wrestling.worldshaking00 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 17, 2018 12:31 amThat and her flying off angrily might sour some talent scouts.
While I'm sure many of the readers of the comic would disagree, I took that to mean, Roxie just isn't that pretty.rogermart wrote: ↑Thu Aug 16, 2018 7:01 pmThere could be a backstory, but when Lynn was talking to her boss about Roxie, he/she/it mentioned she doesn't have the "right look".

That was “a little” in the common English sense of mild understatement. Yes, she absolutely put significant work in.
What DiDi put in would be described as “very little effort”.Little effort would be DiDi, she hasn't had her debut match yet.
Plenty of wrestlers have been sacked or had their careers cut short becuase they got a reputation for being careless in the ring. And as for exaggerating Rosxie's temper she put the head trainer in a submission move because he made a joke about Didi's looks and tried to do the same to Didi - a non trained person - after getting punched accidentally . Doesn't seem that professional to me and I can't remember any of the other MA3 characters -except Yuki- regularly doing that kind of physical violence to somebody else.Cortez wrote: ↑Thu Aug 16, 2018 11:05 pmBut you're forgetting that when it comes to wrestling, she's always professional.

Especially since by real life wrestling standards, her temper is tame. She's certainly not as bad as Shawn Michaels at his worst or as immature as Randy Orton.
Also, compared to a lot of characters in MA3, she has the self control of a monk. Honestly, i think you are exaggerating her temper.
