[[caption-width-right:350: Kazza 3:16]]
Karen Glennon is an Irish professional wrestler, best known by her ring names '''Kazza''' (sometimes Kazza G) and '''Martina'''.
She began her career in TheNewTens, training exclusively with ''Mainstage Wrestling'' (as the lone female student there). She soon became a popular wrestler in the country, and was featured across all promotions. She competed under the Kazza name for a few years - appearing regularly for Wrestling/CelticChampionshipWrestling - but things soon changed.
When Ireland set up a promotion titled ''Over The Top Wrestling'' - for an exclusively over 18's crowd - Kazza was repackaged as Martina, the Session Moth[[note]]Irish slang for a HardDrinkingPartyGirl[[/note]]. Initially appearing as the valet to The Lads With The Flats, her popularity led to her becoming a BreakoutCharacter for the promotion. When they introduced a Women's Championship in 2016, she eventually won it by defeating Wrestling/KateyHarvey. In 2017 she also became the promotion's inaugural [[http://www.diva-dirt.com/141841/irish-womens-wrestler-wins-ground-breaking-championship/ Gender Neutral Champion]].
!!Session Tropes:
* ActionGirl: One of Ireland's most accomplished female wrestlers.
* ArchEnemy: Initially the Owens Twins, and then Katey Harvey.
* BreakoutCharacter: Eventually became one for OTT, even getting one of their events named after her (Martina's Gaff Party). When OTT first started, she competed in other promotions under the Kazza G gimmick. But her popularity led to her getting booked as Martina outside of OTT.
* ButNotTooWhite: As a heel valet to the Fabulous Nicky, she portrayed a Snooki wannabe who wore too much fake tan.
* CastSpeciation: Originally brought in as the DistaffCounterpart to Martin and Workie - whose gimmick was that they needed cocaine to get psyched for a match. As her popularity increased, she developed the Session Moth side of her character to distinguish herself.
* CleavageWindow: A couple of her outfits have one.
* DarkIsNotEvil: She often wore black as a face, and more colours as a heel.
* DenserAndWackier: Martina is this to Kazza G. Beforehand her heel character was much wackier.
* EarlyBirdCameo: She first appeared as a backstage interviewer for CCW, before getting in the ring.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: She debuted in OTT using her initial gimmick and the Kazza G name. Martina didn't appear until a few shows in.
* EveryoneLovesBlondes: Martina's popularity coincidentally took off when she became blonde.
* EvilIsHammy: Although she didn't do it for too long, her heel persona was hammy and crazy.
* {{Expy}}: Her heel gimmick was one to [[Series/JerseyShore Snooki]].
* {{Face}}: Due to beginning her career wrestling intergender matches, she usually played the face. She didn't get to play a heel until she hooked up with The Fabulous Nicky.
* FaceHeelDoubleTurn: 2014 saw her and Katey swapping the face/heel roles in matches.
* FanServicePack: Compare her [[http://scontent.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/e35/11348236_749369971838411_624337502_n.jpg?ig_cache_key=MTAyNTE4Mjc5ODcxNDk1NjI2Nw%3D%3D.2 first promotional pictures]] to her [[https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/727821534560129024/WQN8vs_o.jpg current ones]].
* FinishingMove: She started using a Code Breaker circa 2013. Previously a tornado DDT.
* FormerlyFat: She's posted pictures showing that she struggled with weight in her teen years, before losing it in her twenties.
* GoodBadGirl: Martina has no shortage of sex jokes, yet she is entirely a babyface.
* GroinAttack: Xavier Burns tried this on her, prompting Kazza to give an AsideGlance that said "''really''?"
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: Martina is the Irish version of this trope, usually bringing cans to the ring.
* HotterAndSexier: As Kazza G she was presented as a wholesome GirlNextDoor type. After a FaceHeelTurn in 2014, she adopted a trashier character. As Martina, sex jokes became a big part of her character and she was pushed as a MsFanservice.
* IHaveTheHighGround: Utilises a lot of headscissors, hurricanranas and crossbodies in her matches.
* LethalJokeCharacter: Despite the comedy to her character, Martina is still a very successful wrestler.
* TheMentor: Played one to Valkyrie in CCW.
* MessyHair: As Martina she once wrestled a match with rollers in her hair.
* MiniDressOfPower: Her initial gear.
* OlderHeroVersusYoungerVillain: While she's not old, she has been wrestling a lot longer than most females. So she has feuded with the likes of Valkyrie, Debbie Keitel, Raven Creed and Jinny - who are all younger and newer to wrestling than she is.
* PerkyFemaleMinion:
** When she was managing The Fabulous Nicky.
** She had previously managed Johnny Notaro in a similar way.
* PerkyGoth: Downplayed but she has tweeted about rock music and heavy metal - and is very perky in the ring.
* RealSongThemeTune:
** "Sandstorm" by Darude as Martina.
** "Can't Be Tamed" by Miley Cyrus as her heel gimmick.
* RedBaron: 'The Session Moth'.
* TheRival: She and Wrestling/KateyHarvey both came into wrestling around the same time, Kazza for MSW and Katey for FFPW. They have feuded and wrestled each other many times - and at one point they were the only two females wrestling actively in Ireland. Before they faced each other for the OTT Women's Championship, Katey even said "I ''needed'' you to be in this match".
* ScreamingWarrior: As a heel, she would throw lots of tantrums in the ring.
* SexySantaOutfit: Naturally whenever OTT has a ChristmasEpisode.
* SlobsVersusSnobs: Played the slob in her feud with Snob Katey Harvey.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Was literally the only female in MSW for years.
* SpyCatsuit: As a heel she wrestled in a blue one [[SleevesAreForWimps with no sleeves]].
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: Her feud with Katey Harvey illustrated this. Katey described herself as the "Lance Storm style serious wrestler" whereas Martina was out to have fun and entertain the crowd.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The GirlyGirl to Katey Harvey's tomboy.
* TwoGuysAndAGirl: Martin, Workie and Martina.
* WouldHitAGirl: Her opponents don't have a choice. She's wrestled so many intergender matches that they know better than to go easy on her.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: She's sometimes put pink and purple into her hair.
