## Answers Wrestling Federation

#### **The Pipe-bombshell Movement**

Answers Wrestling Federation (AWF) was where Tarah Nova found her voice. Just like WWA, she started growing into a better wrestler and even more into a hot headed young woman. Since joining AWF, Tarah found it hard not to notice the lack of respect from the superstars, especially from the AWF Champion himself, Mr DEDEDE. The superstars in AWF didn't care about the Dominas matches or even if they were on the show and after weeks of them pushing the Dominas around, Tarah Nova finally snapped. In the middle of an Number One Contenders match for AWF Empress Championship, Mr DEDEDE came out to the ring, costing Tarah the match. That was the last straw for her. After the

music stopped, Tarah got into Mr DEDEDE's face and dropped one of the biggest pipe-bombs any Domina had done. The following week, Tarah came out and demanded a new contract with it saying she was the number one contender for Mr DEDEDE's championship or she quits. Shockingly, Tarah bullied her way into getting her new contract.

#### **Nova VS Stone**

However, her happy days were short lived when the Southern Domina, Alexius Stone, came on the scene and stole Tarah's new contract. With Alexius Stone holding onto Tarah's contract, Tarah was back to demanding for a match--only this time, it was for her own contract. There was new found rage running through Tarah Nova's veins and nothing was going to stop her from get her contract back. Each week when ever Alexius or Tarah had a match, the other was out there waiting for the right time to attack. After a month of the random attacks on each others, AWF's president James Shield gave Tarah what she wanted a Match. The match called "Tarah's Million Dollar Contract' match" was long and brutal. In the middle of the match, Tarah turned the tables on Alexius, ending the match with a fetal blow from a Trickshot. As the new number one contender for AWF Championship, nothing was going to stand in her way.

#### **Nova VS DEDEDE and The end of AWF**

Nova VS DEDEDE went on to be one of the must see matches of AWF's history. One represented all of the Female wrestlers that has ever step foot into a ring and the other represented the old school wrestlers. The match went on for about 30 minutes. Closing to the end on the match, Tarah knocked DEDEDE out--or so she thought. When she moved in for the pin, DEDEDE rolled her up and got the pin himself. With Tarah failing on beating Mr.DEDEDE that day, she went into a depressed state and slowly faded out of the lime light of AWF. Months pasted and Tarah was getting ready to return but close to her return, AWF closed down. Jobless, Tarah finally gave up and moved to the one company that she knew would never close.

## Elite Answers Wrestling

#### **Straight Edge Vixen**

After AWF, Tarah Nova was called to the best company in the world: ~~Extreme~~ Elite Answers Wrestling. In the beginning of her days in EAW, Tarah Nova brought in her outside world to the ring. Being the only Straight Edge ever in EAW gave her a chip on her shoulder and made her think she was better then the others. Tarah first made her debut against a Wild card Vixen named Kristina. While the match against Kristina didn't last more then a couple of minutes, Nova showed the Vixens locker Room that she wasn't a force to be reckoned with. As the days went on, Tarah grew better and better, facing Vixens like Whitney, Raine, Stephie Love and even the tag team of Vanessa and The Vixens Champion, Cassandra or better known as The Lyndivias.

A Month after Tarah Nova debuted, she was recruited by a man named Dark Demon, Leader of a Team called *"Demon’s Council".* At the time of the recruitment, Demon's Council was feuding against Tarah's old indie friend, Zack Crash. Now on a team and fueled by this new found rage towards Crash, Nova started to fight more dirty and faze into a dark point in her life. As the Feud between Demon and Zack went on, Tarah found herself in a lot more matches against headline wrestlers like Matt Miles, Jaywalker, Heart Break Boy and Cameron Ella Ava. Just like in AWF, however, the Elitists believed that while their were in the ring, Vixens shouldn't be. They even went as far as saying to Tarah, "Your just a Vixen, what can a Vixen do?". Hearing this pushed her and made her want to show them herself that they were wrong.

Match after match, Nova, with Eddie Mack and Lucian Black by her side, showed fellow wrestlers that a Vixen can do whatever an Elitists can. After a while, Tarah found herself dragged into the middle of the Demon and Zack feud. She was placed in a match where she teamed up with Eddie Mack and Lucian Black against Zack Crash at Reckless Wiring. From the get go, Demon's Council was in control and it wasn't looking good for Zack as Team of Nova, Mack and Black took him down with deadly blows.

As Black attended to Nova, Mack was Stabbed in the mid-section with a shard of wood and hit with the "Rebel Yell" by Zack Crash; ending the match. After the loss to Zack Crash, Tarah and Demon's Council started to slowly drift apart when the true leader of the Council was shown--Cleopatra.

With the team under Cleopatra control, Tarah started to rebel against the team. Match after match, Tarah found herself blaming Cleopatra for her fails. When it came to the match against THOR at Dia Del Diablo was really the turning point for Tarah's Career. She was placed on the with Dark Demon and Cleopatra. As the match went on, the team couldn't get along and because of that, Tarah was the first one eliminate from the match due to being set on fire by Venom. After that night, Nova was hospitalized with third degree burns and was out of action for about 4 months.

While Cleopatra spoke about change within the Team of Demon's Council, Tarah appeared out of know where and attacked the Hall of Famer. after that fetal attack, Nova took her spot back by Demon's side--only for a short while. Later that same night, Tarah turned the tables on Demon and double crossed him to team with her fellow Detroit wrestler, Xavier Williams. Now with Xavier Williams feuding with against Dark Demon, Tarah had her eyes on his Queen, Cameron Ella Ava. The rivalries began after Tarah was kidnapped by Dark Demon and she swore to after she got saved, that she would kill the thing he loved the most--Cameron. On a taping of a Voltage, Tarah came out and assaulted the Hall of Fame Champion, scarring Cameron's face with a blade in the process. A week after, Cameron came out, spotting the scar, and promised Tarah’s downfall and they were granted a Blackout match at EAW's Shock Value. The Blackout match was long and brutal, showing how deadly Tarah Nova truly was. It started with Cameron having the upper hand but Tarah slowly took charge, taking the match outta the ring and up high over the stage. Tarah took the match to the top of the

Mini tron and tricked Cameron into following her. With both Vixens ten feet in the air, brutal fists and kicks were thrown from both sides. After sending a kick to Cameron's face, Cam started to bleed and started to get blood in her eye. Tarah, wasting little time, quickly sent elbows into Cameron but she grabbed Nova and bashed hr skull off the metal structure that they were on. Both Vixens were hanging onto the side, kicking and sending blows to each other but with one swift boot to the face, Tarah knocked Cameron Ella Ava off the mini-tron and down into the electric equipment. With the impact of Cameron's body hitting the electric equipment, it explodes and sends electricity surging through Cameron Ella Ava's body, making Tarah winning the match. After the match, while Cameron was being carried out, Tarah stole the Hall of Fame Championship and started to claimed the title as her own.

But after that moment, the real Cameron appeared, attacking Tarah and went to steal back her championship but Nova was quicker. At the end of it all, Nova and Ava went on to feud for two month till the next FPV, where Ava was the victor of the feud.

After that, One by one, Tarah ended careers of Vixens as she tried to show her dominance within the brand. While she was on her Rampage, Tarah found herself in the number one contenders match at Fighting Spirit against Haruna. She had man fights before her but never one this important. It was at that Super Show where Tarah won her opportunity to go against Lethal, who was the current Vixens Champion. Before the match against lethal for The Vixens championship, the EAW universe was given an voting board to see which Vixens' finishing move would be banned from the match. Luckily, it was Lethal's finisher that was banned which led to her downfall. During the match at Reckless wiring, Tarah used Lethal's own finisher against her; winning the match.
