Vanity

Arrogance and selfishness has its price, and Vanity! shall be its undoing.

Vanity! is a faction of women, spanning across several eFederations, that has now made its way to CWL. Lead and founded by Natalia, the origins of Vanity! started out in 2019. Then known simply as "The Salon", named after her Bootyfication Salon, for doing CAW makeovers. It would go from the vibrant colors and fun themes of The Salon, to the black and pink theme of the vigilante faction of Vanity! in 2020. Members outside of CWL include women such as LilTinyChan, AJ Striker, Lauren Brooks, LethalLexa, Lexi Lovewell, and AFK co-founder Lynn/Akicita.

### Formation

During a fierce rivalry between Rachel Lochlan and Natalia. The two would lock arms in a back and forth match during Genesis episode 20, with Rachel pinning Natalia for the win. They would have a week's worth of social media battling, when CWL management would step in and force the rivals to have a tag match on Genesis episode 22. Their opponents were Jessie Anderson and Hannah Star.

Begrudgingly agreeing to play nice, Rachel and Natalia would perform well as a team. Tagging in and out regularly, doing high flying double team moves, and backing each other up as if they had tagged for years. The match would end with Natalia tapping Hannah with her Zatyshok submission.

Rachel and Natalia would meet again for a title match in Episode 23, with Natalia defending the belt. Afterward, Natalia would appreciate Rachel's prowess, having backroom conversations about bringing Vanity! (previously known as The Salon) to the CWL. The two would bond over their fierce rivalry, realizing they are stronger together than apart.

On episode 24, Natalia would appear at ringside, supporting Rachel in her match, formally announcing the debut of Vanity! on CWL. During the match, Rachel would quickly do away with Brigit, rolling her up in a close 3 count. The ref calling the match as a Pin, while Brigit is left furious about the situation, feeling she was cheated. The match would extend post-pin for another couple of minutes, as Brigit chases after Rachel, tossing her back into the ring and taking out her aggression on the new Vanity! member.

### CWL Season 4, Genesis 1 (2021)

Although Natalia and Rachel would wrestle as a tag team in Genesis episode 22, their first match as Vanity! would formally be on episode 30. They would face off against Holly Walker and Ori Ikeda. The pair would struggle with cohesion, not tagging well, and ultimately losing. Ori pinning Rachel, uncontested by Natalia that stayed on the apron. Giving Vanity! their first loss, during their debut.

Their next tag match would be on Genesis episode 32. This time against Kumiyo Ishimoto and Bayamya. Kumiyo about to challenge for the Queen of Genesis title on episode 33, against Natalia. As well as open vetting of Kumiyo as a possible 3rd member of Vanity!. During the episode 32 tag match, Kumiyo and Bayamya would spend several minutes double teaming Natalia in their corner. The frustration growing on Natalia, and the eagerly waiting Rachel on the Vanity! corner's apron. Natalia would be prevented from tagging out, ultimately resulting in her locking Bayamya into her Zatyshok submission, securing the win for team Vanity!.

Genesis episode 34 would be a challenging match. Vanity! finding itself in a 3 way tag match against the likes of Brigit & Santa Muerte and Santana Jet & Alisha Evans. The tornado match would be chaotic, with all three teams decimating each other. Several teams finding one of their members in a near 3 count pin, barely being broken up by another competitor. BeBe, in the final moments of the match would land her shoulder breaker finisher, pinning Santana Jet with moments to spare before Queen Brigit would attempt the pin breakup. Vanity! taking their 3rd straight win.

On the heels of episode 34, Genesis episode 35 would showcase the continued rivalry of Queen Brigit & Santa Muerte, against Vanity!. This match intended to be a tornado, no escapes, steel cage match. Unfortunately, CWL rules disallow the stipulation, so the match would be an escapes steel cage match. The four women having an intense battle for the first several minutes, as Queen Brigit would make an early attempt to exit the cage, followed by BeBe chasing after her. BeBe would lose the back and forth, falling to the mat. Santa Muerte making her climb at the same time, as Rachel was forced to choose between the two opponents.

Brigit would end up escaping, as Rachel catches and tosses Santa Muerte down to the mat. BeBe taking the opening to escape, as Rachel again ascends. This time with her teammate making a successful escape. Rachel having a back and forth with Santa Muerte, continuing to tumble her to the mat. Moments from getting over the fence, Rachel is caught up to by Santa Muerte. Finally knocking Rachel to the mat, and causing another back and forth, with Santa Muerte again knocking Rachel down. The match ending with Santa Muerte narrowly escaping the cage, as Rachel pursued.

Vanity! would again see Queen Brigit in a tag match during Genesis episode 37. Rachel Lochlan and BeBe Ka$h facing off this time against the paring of Queen Brigit and Bayamya. Two vocal and strong competitors in the women's division. The match would be a good back and forth, inside and outside of the ring. For several minutes, the two teams tagging their fresh teammates in and out regularly. Rachel would end up in the ring against Bayamya, landing several pin attempts, as BeBe Ka$h, playing defense would perform a timely reversal. Knocking Queen Brigit down, as Brigit rolls out to ring side. Rachel hitting her signature pin move, getting an uncontested pinfall win for Vanity!.

Post-match, the tag team champions of Vindication would offer a title shot at the All Due Respect, Genesis PPV. Vanity! winning the match in Genesis episode 37, becoming the first Genesis tag team to challenge for a cross branded tag team belt. Three weeks away for the upcoming Genesis 40.

Episode 38 of Genesis would find BeBe and Rachel going up against the long rivalry of Hannah Star. Joining Hannah was Kylie Davenport. The match would be a strong display of teamwork by both pairs. Going back and forth majority of the match. At the end, Rachel would be in ring with Hannah. Hannah getting a pin on Rachel, as BeBe came in for the pin break up. BeBe turning to Kylie, with a well timed cutter, giving Rachel a window for an uncontested submission. The match ending with Rachel tapping out Hannah, as Kylie scrambled up to apron-side a few seconds too late.

Sonya Morgan and Amber Callaghan would face off against Vanity! in the final regular season episode of Genesis, Season 1. The match would find BeBe and Rachel having the upper hand for the first half, tagging and utilizing tag team moves. As the match continued, Sonya and Amber would start to fight back, giving a good back and forth. Ultimately, BeBe would take control of the momentum, tossing Amber out of the ring. After the two returned, BeBe will end the match with a triangle choke that taps out Amber for the win.

At Aftermath, the match for the 3v3 of Vanity! vs. Darkness was intense. A tornado tag match, with the tag belts on the line. The match would start out in utter chaos, as the six women would pick their targets, each with their own grudges against the opposing three. The double teaming by both sides would go on for several minutes, as each team would randomly have a member roll to the mat below. Giving the other team the upper hand to hit an opponent from behind, or break up a pin or submission.

Natalia would finally face off against her new friend that she desperately wanted to free from the controlled clutches of Darkness. Finally getting her to tap out, so Natalia could safely remove Charlie from any further harm in the match, for her tough brawler of a friend. BeBe moments later would be toe to toe with Brigitte, as they finally came to a final reversal on Brigitte, BeBe calling her up for one final cutter and pin. Zoe finding herself alone against the three, but BeBe and Natalia would stay back and let Rachel have her 1:1 with one of the two main faces of Darkness.
