ALLIANCE
In addition to the individual feuds that will unfold during your tenure with MetroPRO, management would like to make it clear upfront that there is a great divide between the the two co-owners of the organization, Mort Goodman, Esq. and Marty Sunshine, Esq. A line has been drawn, and management would like to know where you stand. Your decision will impact how you are treated by management, and will be taken into consideration in the matchmaking process, as well as consideration for backroom bonuses in return for the undertaking of certain tasks for the cause. (You are also permitted, but not required, to give a reason, which will also be considered by management for future purposes).
[X] Team Marty
Reasons: Lora wants to use the popularity of the wrestling industry as a platform to a career in the music industry as a pop singer. As such, she believes that Marty is more likely to be able to make that dream a reality, thanks to his glamourous visions for the company.
Wrestler: Damian Cole & Allyana Rivera
Reasons: Damian Cole is a wrestling purist and Lora believes that his "kind" (I.E - as dull as dish water) are only going to attract viewers who are solely tuning in for wrestling. She's looking to be "found" by the biggest agents in Hollywood, so the Metro:PRO product needs more diversity within the roster to attract bigger, more varied audiences. Allyana Rivera is a naturally pretty woman and Lora feels like she could be a threat. She can't risk being overlooked for an attractive face.

Brief Character Overview: Lora is – in her own mind – a natural born entertainer. She feels that she's been gifted with the voice of an angel, as well as a talent for combat sport. From her teenage years, she has juggled both the art of singing and mixed martial arts – including kick boxing and freestyle wrestling. While she has excelled in fighting, her singing abilities leave a lot to be desired. As such, she has enjoyed success on the independent wrestling circuits across Nevada and the West Coast; while suffering repeated knock backs from record labels throughout North America. Shaw has joined Metro:PRO, along with her husband Warren, with an aim to use the company as a platform in which to showcase her talents – both physical and vocal. In her eyes, the industry is dog-eat-dog and, with the exception of her husband, she'll stab anyone in the back to get what she wants. Nine times out of ten, Lora will sing to her opponents before a match, so fans may want to invest in a set of industrial ear guards, lest they suffer the abuse on their ear drums that only Shaw's singing can provide.

Wrestling Style: Lora channels her kick boxing and freestyle wrestling training while in the ring, so her style is a combination of mat-based ground and pound, submission and aggressive standing strikes.
In-Ring Strengths:
Submission Specialist - Lora is one of the best submission wrestlers in the company and has perfected her craft.
Any Means Necessary - Lora is sneaky and will bend the rules if things are not going her way; avoiding being caught 9 times out of 10.
Catch Her if You Can - Lora's slim, muscular frame allows her to move incredibly quickly, making her tough to handle.
In-Ring Flaws:
Hot-Headed - When things are not going her way and the ability to cheat is not present, she can lose her cool and the game plan disintegrates.
Small Fry - Fighting women is rarely ever a problem but when she comes up against men, her height and weight can disadvantage her greatly.
Soar Sport - She finds it tough to handle aerial specialists, simply because her background is mat based and striking.
In-Ring Attitude: Lora believes that the ring is a platform in which to perform and be scouted, so she'll stop at nothing to ensure that she's not upstaged or made to give up the spotlight to her opponent. As such, she'll do whatever it takes to maintain her advantage. She's aggressive, confident and loves to put on a show.

BIOGRAPHY
Lora Shaw (nee Rossiter) has been training within the art of kick boxing and freestyle wrestling from the age of twelve, having developed a keen interest in combat sport from an extremely young age. However, her passion for fighting is rivalled by her passion and enthusiasm for singing – something she's not skilled in, despite years of vocal coaching.
Regardless, Lora believes that she's a superstar in the making; an unrealistic belief that's only exacerbated by her equally deluded husband, Warren Shaw. He can't be faulted for his encouragement towards his wife; although it doesn't seem to aid her in any kind of improvement where her singing is concerned.
Over the years, Lora has developed quite an egotistical outlook and believes that she's a gift that the world has been blessed with. As such, she has decided to overlook the multitude of rejection letters from various record labels and continue to put herself in the spotlight – this time in the form of professional wrestling. The ring is her stage and she intends to perform, hoping that her talent and charisma will lead her to being scouted by an executive from Hollywood.
While her singing is woeful, her ass-kicking pedigree is second-to-none and she excels in the ring for the right reasons. Of course, she's “bored” by standard wrestling and feels that to be a star in this profession, you have to possess more than just the ability to throw a punch and lock in a submission hold.
The primary objective for Lora is to entertain the masses with her singing as well as her fighting, as she and her husband look forward to a future in show business.
