History Wrestling / BethPhoenix

* LoonyFan[=/=]PsychoSupporter: Had one in Rosa Mendes. ''Had''. With Beth's complete lack of hesitation in attacking her despite Rosa not doing anything at all to hinder Beth even in battle royals it's a wonder she did not break away sooner.

* BlondesAreEvil: She started out with the goal of finishing off all the worthless women in wrestling and then moving on to the worthless men. She started to [[HeelFaceTurn mellow out]] a bit after being brutalized by former friend Traci Brooks.

* SmurfettePrinciple: Phoenix was the only women in FNW. She eventually won their cruiserweight title belt.

* SlasherSmile: As a heel, Beth had a [[http://www.iwebie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/beth-phoenix.jpg pretty effective one.]] It doesn't seem right that a woman that gorgeous can look that [[http://www.divaswrestlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Beth-Phoenix-Smile.jpg sinister.]]

* BreakTheHaughty: Psycho gave her a power bomb and two splashes ''after'' defeating Phoenix.

'''Elizabeth Kocanski Carolan''' (born on November 24, 1980 in Elmira, New York), also known as '''Beth Phoenix''', is a female professional wrestler who worked for Wrestling/{{WWE}}, and unique among them for her power-beauty glamazon gimmick and being one of the few who trained to be a wrestler from the beginning, going as far as being [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome the first woman varsity wrestler in her high school.]]

* StartMyOwn: ODB declared herself the best wrestler in OVW and made her own title belt to defend...which she lost to Serena Deeb, which she lost to Beth Phoenix, which she lost to Katie Lea. Unconvinced that she actually lost, Beth made her own title and called it the real one, which caused management to relent and give Beth and Katie Lea a shot for an official OVW belt. (Which Katie won but OVW decided to be nice and leave everyone else's "reign" on record...[[CanonDiscontinuity except]] [[Wrestling/AliciaFox Victoria Crawford's]])

* VanityProject: "Pin-up Strong Illustrated", started by herself and Natalya in protest to Kelly Kelly being featured in "Maxim Magazine".

* UrExample
** First GLORY champion.
** Claims to be the first female to win a battle royal in Ontario Canada. She had to outlast 14 guys to do so.

With her amateur wrestling skill and physical strength, she quickly developed in one of the best female wrestlers in business while working for a multitude of promotions such as Cleveland All Pro Wrestling, Apocalypse Wrestling, GLORY, [[Wrestling/{{Chikara}} Kiryoku Pro]] and Far North Wrestling. It earned her a contract with Ohio Valley Wrestling, an invitation to Wrestling/{{SHIMMER}} and eventually the WWE Women's Championship three times and the Divas championship once. On the October 29, 2012 edition of Raw, she was [[{{Kayfabe}} fired]] by Wrestling/VickieGuerrero, ending her six-year tenure with the company.

* GutturalGrowler: Went through a phase of it in her second year as a pro wrestler. Her voice is not particularly deep otherwise.

* VocalDissonance: Speaks with a soft, sweet voice despite having a physique that would make most men jealous.

** At various times: Wrestling/MickieJames (Alexis Laree was her first professional wrestling opponent), Wrestling/{{Melina}}, Candice Michelle, Maria Kanellis, Wrestling/KellyKelly, Wrestling/EveTorres, Wrestling/{{LayCool}}, and MariaMenounos.

* AbortedArc: In 2006, there were plans to reveal the [[HoYay history between the Glamazon and Mickie James]], but they were canceled when Beth broke her jaw in a match with [[Wrestling/LisaMarieVaron Victoria]].

* SmurfettePrinciple: Phoenix was the only women in FNW. She eventually won their cruiserweight championship.
* StartMyOwn: ODB declared herself the best wrestler in OVW and made her own championship to defend...which she lost to Serena Deeb, which she lost to Beth Phoenix, which she lost to Katie Lea.

(Which Katie won but OVW decided to be nice and leave everyone else's "reign" on record...[[CanonDiscontinuity except]] [[Wrestling/AliciaFox Victoria Crawford's]])

* DemotedToExtra: Like many of her Divas counterparts (with the exception of Wrestling/VickieGuerrero, Wrestling/AJLee, and Wrestling/EveTorres), Phoenix has been recently relegated to competing on ''Wrestling/WWESuperstars''.

* KneelBeforeZod: In WWE, her plans for Candice Michelle was to make her get down on her knees and "Worship the Glamazon". This never happened, [[RealLifeWritesThePlot as Beth ended up settling for injuring Candice.]]

* BareYourMidriff: Somewhat averted. Unlike other Divas, almost none of Beth's wrestling outfits exposed her midsection, although several photoshoots have depicted her showing it off.

* ImportantHaircut: She's gon brunette as of March 2015.

** There was also the time she gave Triple H a vote of no confidence by claiming that the Divas couldn't defend themselves in chaos because "Hunter, we're girls," while she and Natalya were responsible for the ongoing chaos in the Divas division at the time. Coming from a woman who entered the ''Royal Freaking Rumble'', that's even more hypocritical

* DarkhorseVictory: While she never got far enough to win the title, Phoenix did score a pin fall on NWA Midwest women's champion Wrestling/MsChif, which no one saw coming.

* OhNoNotAgain: Went from her usual haughty self as soon as the opening notes of "Repined Bastard Nation" were played in SHIMMER, alerting her to the fact her [=MsChif=] trials weren't over.

* GentleGiant[=/=]MeanCharacterNiceActor: Is known to be one of the sweetest, most accessible WWE stars.

* TheComicallySerious: Altered between being upset by Santino's antics [[StraightMan to passively encouraging them]] while they were dating. She had just a minimal tolerance for Wrestling/JillianHall's delusions though, giving Katie Lea a DeathGlare for daring to dance to Jillian's "music".

* TheRival: Traci Brooks (ally turned rival), The Canadian Hard Body [[Wrestling/AngelinaLove Angel Williams]] (enemy turned {{worthy opponent}}), [[Wrestling/JillianHall Macaela Mercedes]], Shelly Martinez (who feuded regarding Idol Stevens but worked together against Alexis Laree, then terrorized Phoenix after Kevin Thorn turned her into the vampire, Ariel), alternated between EvilVersusEvil and VillainTeamup with Katie Lea.
* RunTheGauntlet: The match where she lost ODB's Women's title. Beth got pretty far through luck and treachery (attacking Kelly Kelly before the match started, Roni Jona before she got in the ring, a lucky shot on Ariel,Jenny Mae knocked Beth around but was pinned after a missed missile dropkick and then Beth rolled up ODB and [[EasilyDistractedReferee put her feet on the ropes]]...simply {{squash| match}}ing Melody) but her streak was ended by Katie Lea, who went on to win the whole thing when Beth hit Serena Deeb with the belt.

* GutturalGrowler: Went through a phase of it in her second year as a wrestler. Her voice is not particularly deep otherwise.

* GutturalGrowler: Went through a phase of it in 2002.
