Blush (RLS CAS)

Blush is a professional wrestler currently signed to UNION Wrestling. Portrayed by an unknown performer, to enhance the mystery of her character, Blush is currently in her second spell with the promotion. 
A popular gimmick in the alternative wrestling scene, Blush mixes circus-esque mannerisms and clownish behaviour with a darker, more sadistic side inspired by wrestlers like Mayhem and Miss Deeds.
==Career==
===UNION Wrestling (2015-2019)===
After making a series of appearances in 2015 and 2016's tours, Blush would debut for UNION Wrestling in late 2016 in a Triple Threat also featuring Sitara and Lara Grey, being pinned by the former. Initially played as a face, she'd be turned heel and take on a much darker persona in 2017, and though her matches usually still ended in defeat, her antics during would gross out, infuriate and terrify her opponents... which seemed to be her entire motivation.
Her second season appearances were limited, reportedly due to Eddie Hamer's disdain for the type of gimmicky characters she represented, though at live shows she continued to put scaring her opponents above any desire to win and was fairly popular with the crowds for doing so. When she was released in early-2019, "#RehireBlush" briefly trended on social media, though she took to Grapplr to confirm that she had little desire to do so while gimmicks such as hers were looked upon poorly by management.
===Alternative wrestling scene (2020-2021)===
After a break, during which she successfully negotiated the use of the Blush gimmick from UNION Wrestling, she'd debut in Premier Women's Wrestling and Wrestling upLOUD! as a monster heel, going on separate but associated winning streaks before winning the upLOUD! Ladies of Pain Championship in March 2020. She'd hold it throughout the height of the pandemic-related restrictions, before vacating it in early 2021.
===Second UNION Wrestling spell (2022-present)===
Blush would, along with Miss Deeds, Nightmare D0ll and Mayhem, return to UNION Wrestling as part of their "Facepaint Friday" event in April 2022. As of February 2024, however, she wouldn't appear on programming.1

==Trivia==
* There's some confusion even in UNION Wrestling over who exactly created the character of Blush, with Eddie Hamer reportedly remarking to son Jordan during negotiations post-exit that he'd thought she'd created it. Jordan believes a now retired writer did most of the work. Blush, herself, didn't believe she had any claim to the gimmick, legally, hence approaching them for permission to continue using it in the first place.2
==Behind-The-Scenes/Notes==
# Frustratingly, I haven't been able to find the perfect place to slot her back in.
# In reality, I can't remember if Blush is purely my creation, or one of the CASs I created as a child with my brothers.
