Christina Maria Kardooni (born August 28, 1989) is an American musician from Sacramento, California who turned to Professional Wrestling, becoming known as Christina Von Eerie. She trained in the Supreme Pro Wrestling Training Academy under Big Ugly, Danny Secretion, Bao Nguyen, Sir Samurai and Old School Oliver John, debuted in 2006 and got her start working in various California independent promotions before branching out to other parts of the U.S. and beyond. She has competed for Pro Wrestling Guerilla, AAA, SHIMMER, CZW, WSU, Dragon Gate USA, TNA (as Toxxin) and others. She is a 2x AWS (Alternative Wrestling Show) Women's Champion, a former AAA Mixed Tag Team Champion with Alex Koslov and a Pro Wrestling Revolution Women's Champion, the first Women's Champion of Jeff Jarrett's GFW and an NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Champion with Scotty Mac.


"Toxxic Punk Tropes":

  • Action Girl/Dark Action Girl:
    • At CZW 14th Anniversary Show, she and MASADA (yes, the same one below) had an "Intergender Death Match" which included Christina hitting him with a barbed-wire baseball bat.
    • She walked to the ring for her AWS Women's Title defense against MsChif at AWS Ten Year Anniversary, July 7, 2012, carrying a board wrapped in barbed-wire, though she didn't use it.
  • Affably Evil: Von Eerie is often crass, rude and sometimes even whiny but she does recognize appreciation when it is shown and sometimes may even high five at least one fan who shows it. (as a general rule, don't expect it to be any more than one)
  • Affectionate Nickname: She was dubbed "The Definition Of Sexy Punk Chick" by the North West Wrestling Alliance.
  • Arch-Enemy
    • (in AAA): The Apache sisters (Faby and Mary)
    • (in SHIMMER): Saraya Knightnote , though after at least four years of hostilities Sweet Saraya would team up with The Rejected on The Alternative Wrestling Show to take down Fatal Attraction and Rosemary
    • (in SHINE): She's one half of the team that gave Made In Sin their first taste of defeat and they're some sore losers. Then it was revealed Made In Sin have connections to Sweet Saraya (connections they of course deny). However, even before that loss they seemed to have a special ire for Von Eerie, attacking her after she fell to Rain at the fourth show in what might have been an early step to the founding of the Valkyrie stable, if not the first. Even after Allysin Kay was kicked out of both Made In Sin and Valkyrie she continued to butt heads with Von Eerie and ended her reign as GFW Women's champion on Impact Wrestling.
  • Ascended Extra: While Christina Von Eerie had appeared in TNA before, she only did so in dark matches. Toxxin's initial role was managing the shop where Mexican America and Ink Inc got tattoos done. She was neutral during their feud, only asking that they didn't fight in her place of business. But when Anarquia tried to use her as a human shield she elbowed him and allowed Jesse Neal and Shannon Moore to give him a tattoo of their choosing. She went on to aid Ink Inc. in their next brawl with Mexican America by jumping, Rosita and Sarita, cementing her membership.
  • Battle Couple
    • With Jesse Neal in Ring Warriors
    • While managing CZW heavyweight champion Masada, she was not afraid to fight beside him, if needed. It usually was too, him being targeted by Drew Gulak's Campaign. They have also competed in WSU's Queen and King of the ring.
  • Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Not quite, she bleeds less frequently than you'd expect a CZW regular to but she does bleed on occasion and when she does it is often a lot. Sweet Saraya had her bleeding on the head and the chest. Masada had her bleeding all over.
  • Chain Pain: If the referee did not take care to remove one of her necklaces.
  • Combat Parkour: Christina Von Eerie isn't known for reaping high reward for her risks in truth but she is adept at reaching high places and has learned to roll through most of the common counters to her signature and finishing moves.
  • Combination Attack: MSEERIE have alternating headbutts and a double wrist lock transitioned to a back fist sandwich.
  • Continuity Nod: She retains her dislike of many wrestlers in between different promotions such as when her issues with Dragon Gate's Premier Athlete Brand lead to her attacking Su Yung the next time they met at SHINE, despite them both having a mutual enemy there at the time in Valkyrie.
  • Double Knockout: In 2015, champions were falling like blades of grass to the mower than was Santana Garrett and Santana was ready to bag the PWR Women's title held by CVE around Summer's end. In the end, neither could answer a ten count, so Von Eerie's reign inched closer to the two year mark.
  • The Dragon: Serves as one in Women Of Wrestling alternatively to Riot (who brought her in to the promotion) or Thug (the "aunt" of tag team partner Spike).
  • Eccentric Mentor: Before going on television for TNA she was given further training from The Dudley Boys at the Team 3D Academy
  • Finishing Move: Along with 138 (a sidewalk lift into a face buster, see Shout-Out below), she uses the Graveyard Smash, Dead Raising (straight jacket lung blower/back cracker), a double-knee facebreaker/front cracker (face job) and the West Coast Curse.
  • Foreign Wrestling Heel
    • Has been apart of La Legion Extranjera in Triple A, which was basically a dumping ground for foreign rudos.
    • Has lead team USA in Smash against LuFisto's team Canada. However, she had Canadian Candice LeRae with her on the promise of a shot at Courtney Rush and Christina Von Eerie did an about face after all the team members had faced off.
  • A Friend in Need:
    • Was willing to take on She Nay Nay, "Bonesaw" Jessie Brooks and Mena Libra on MsChif's behalf (and technically Melanie Cruise too) at SHIMMER volume 44, despite not knowing what was going on between them (though Von Eerie had a pretty good idea)
    • When Irish Airborne took a break from CZW to go tour in Japan, she promised to look after Nevaeh for them, even though it meant getting on the bad side of her boss, DJ Hyde.
  • Friendly Enemy: One sided example. Von Eerie likes being around Sara Del Rey but Del Rey's no nonsense attitude makes putting up with Von Eerie a chore for her. Their first meeting ended with Del Rey beating Von Eerie up in the locker room but the two matches that happened as a result patched things up in Von Eerie's mind.
  • Garbage Wrestler: On Women Of Wrestling, Riot said she found "Razor" in a back alley pulling staples out of her head while wearing "some other promotion's" title belt around her waist, and decided she was exactly what WOW needed.
  • Gimmick Matches: She's been in her share of them, such as a seven way elimination ladder match that also featured Uhaa Nation, AR Fox, Facade, Samuray del Sol and The Young Bucks Matt&Nick Jackson at Dragon Gate Mercury Rising
  • Girliness Upgrade: Appearance wise, Von Eerie went from looking like a fan dressed up for a rock concert to something that could be found on a punk rock fan's pinup poster. Her makeup and pierces became less exaggerated, her hair styles more elaborate(even the mo hawks) and her fashion sense more varied and revealing. This being particularly visible on AAA, TNA and WOW television. She also bulked up, became more ruthless, more willing to bleed and in some cases ruder. She looks more girly but the woman doesn't act it.
  • Gratuitous Princess: Has the title of "The Punk Princess".
  • Hard Head: In more ways than one. Not only does she use her head offensively but even after headbutting Santana Garret and MsChif caused Christina Von Eerie to reel she continued to headbutt them anyway.
  • Heel–Face Revolving Door: Depending on where she's wrestling at the time. She had her first three matches in PWG as a heel but turned face after losing to Joey Ryan. She was a heel in AAA. At WSU the commentators acknowledged she was a fan favorite in CZW even though she wasn't in their promotion.
  • Heroic Resolve/Villainous Valor: CVE can be as undignified about taking beatings as any wrestler but if Christina Von Eerie retreats, it tends to be a feint. No matter how large her opponents are in size or number she's almost always willing to rush in or stand her ground and this is why MSEERIE gave Made In Sin their first loss. Even after getting kicked around by them multiple times, she still took on all three after they had knocked out MsChif and held out long enough for MsChif to recover and breakout a Doomsday Device.
  • I Have Many Names: Toxxin in TNA, Razor in Women Of Wrestling
  • Improvised Weapon: When confronted by Kimber Lee, Dewey Donovan, Tofiga and Alexander James all at once Von Eerie's response was to undo her belt and wrap it around her fist.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Sometimes the ass is more apparent than the heart but Christina Von Eerie is fairly loyal for someone in a business of turncoats and is willing to admit to and make up for some of her past transgressions.
  • Literal Asskicking: Her reaction to seeing Human Tornado was immune to groin attacks at an Alternative Wrestling Show/Insane Wrestling League crossover was to instead knee him in his money maker.
  • Mini Dress Of Power: She is usually wears pants, but is not above wrestling in various styles of skirt, especially not as Toxxin.
  • Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Her Red Baroness, "The Toxic Knockout."
  • Parts Unknown: She used to be billed from Scum City, California
  • Perky Female Minion
    • Okay, Jesse Neal and Shannon Moore are pretty perky themselves but definitely the case when managing Jon Moxley and Ugly As Sin (J-SIN Sullivan and Big Ugly).
    • Christina Von Eerie had her own in best friend Buggy Nova, though they would have a falling out after Von Eerie's TNA runs.
    • To BxB Hulk in Dragon Gate after Moxley left, in case you're wondering what she was doing in Mad Blankey. For Akira Tozawa to a lesser extent.
    • Started as one to Joe Gacy in CZW
  • Pintsized Powerhouse: While not really a "power" wrestler, Von Eerie is stronger than she looks. Combine with the frequent Mohawk and it is easy to forget she's imperially 5'4 (such as when the 6'3 Human Tornado set her up for a suplex but got one himself)
  • Power Stable:
    • (in AAA): La Legion Extranjera (led by Konnan, which later grew into La Sociedad
    • (in Dragon Gate): The first two incarnations of Mad Blankey
    • (in World Wonder Ring Stardom) she was a kind of affiliate to Kimura Monster Gun, since she teamed up with Kyoko Kimura several times. Lasting membership would instead go to Von Eerie's rival, Hudson Envy, though.
  • Power Trio: She managed Ink Inc. (Shannon Moore and Jesse Neal) in TNA.
  • Pretender Diss: Going into their match at QPW Trouble With Angels, Von Eerie let it be known that she had an issue with Heidi Lovelace being known as a "Punk Rock Rag Doll".
  • The Quincy Punk: The hair (even when not spiked up), the tattoos, and piercings give her the look of one. Von Eerie does not act like enough of one for Drexl's tastes (he first told her to "stay at home, barefoot and pregnant" and then went in the opposite direction when that got the reaction everyone but himself expected) but cross her and she will display almost all the negative traits.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: Blue in MSEERIE. Christina Von Eerie is more talkative but MsChif is louder and more ruthless.
  • The Rival:
    • Alternates between teaming with and feuding with "The Devil Himself" Derek Drexl. She's also faced Santana Garret the model in many federations and offered her a (temporary) partnership in Future Of Wrestling (to eliminate Garret's other rival La Rosa Negra).
    • Kimber Lee vowed to keep coming after CVE until Von Eerie acted like a lady. After meeting in four promotions with no progress made on that front Lee still would not give it up. Kimber Lee did join Christina Von Eerie's team USA in Smash though, and teamed with Von Eerie after failing to take the Women's title belt off of her in Global Force.
    • CVE has had many one off confrontations and matches with Raisha Saeed, Alyssa Flash and Cheerleader Melissa, but sometimes it escalates into something more, particularly in PWR, where their particular feud there spilled into CMLL and The World Wrestling League.
    • Besides being relied upon by OI4K, she teams with Nevaeh in WSU but they are firmly opposed in SHIMMER and SHINE where they're loyalties default to MSEERIE and The Rejected on one side and The Killer Death Machines, The SNS Express and So Cal Valifornia on the other.
    • Candice LeRae did join Von Eerie's Team USA in Smash but (unsuccessfully) tried to back out at the earliest opportunity and outside of that instance the two mainly feuded, particularly over the Alternative Wrestling Show women's title, until Hudson Envy won the belt. WOW and SHIMMER would then invoke the Rivals Team Up for the tag belts trope with Von Eerie and Envy to create "The Rejected".
  • Shout-Out:
    • To The Misfits. She's billed from "Spook City, USA", one of her Finishing Moves is called "138" and she has worn clothes with the band's skull logo.
    • Her team in AAA with Jennifer Blake and Sexy Star is called Las Gringas Locas, based on Los Gringos Locos, the team of Eddie Guerrero, Art Barr, Konnan and Louie Spicolli.
    • She and Buggy Nova had a sequence where Buggy would hold Christina's hand to assist her walking across the top rope, followed by Christina jumping off and delivering a frankensteiner. A dual shout to The Undertaker and Elix Skipper Primetime Elix Skipper]].
    • Some of her ring gear have badges sewn on them, one of them is of Oscar The Grouch.
  • Sibling Team: Occasionally tags with her brother, James Von Eerie.
  • Signature Move: A fan of the enzuigiri, preceding backhand optional. Also likes variations of the cobra clutch.
  • Skewed Priorities: Threatening the fans of an All Star Wrestling show with a switchblade did not cause them to turn on Von Eerie but her preventing Traci Brooks from giving away a free tee shirt did.
  • Spiky Hair
    • She tends to wear either a spiky faux hawk or Mohawk partially died green. Despite warning the host of Daytime it'd probably hurt her hand more than Von Eerie, the gel job does not stop opponents from trying to grab it. Rik Luxury kept his hands in the Mohawk till it was squashed flat during their tournament match for the Rival Forge Wrestling Heavyweight championship.
    • In TNA, Toxxin's mohawk was divided into five large spikes.
    • In FOW, the commentators eventually came to the conclusion the Mohawk gave her an illegal advantage, as she could break all pin falls just by angling her head in the right position. That said, she's known for wearing her hair down in some places, such as some of her matches in Beyond Wrestling.
  • Spiteful Spit: In an Ultra Violent Affair free match, she spat on her CZW rival Kimber Lee, then got spat on by Kimber Lee's WSU manager, Annie Social. She also spat on Allysin Kay's hand when offered a shake at SHINE 3, to show she remembered her manager's, April Hunter's, interference in their last match. Prepare to be sprayed if you spite Von Eerie.
  • Sunglasses at Night: State trooper type sunglasses as part of her entrance attire in her Remix Pro debut.
  • Tag Team: Besides teaming Alex Koslov, MSEERIE with MsChif, The Rejected with Hudson Envy, Beauty And The Builds with Scotty Mac
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich: She took a drink offered to her by a fan during a Metro Pro event, only to immediately toss it away.
  • Tournament Arc
    • Her first win in one came in the Alternate Wrestling Show's 4th Women's Tournament, where she defeated Amazona in the last round. (A Mexican masked luchadora, not the Puerto Rican from Ring Warriors)
    • She advanced in the first round of the Pro Wrestling Syndicate BLOW tournament...and then disappeared.
    • She won Quintessential Pro Wrestling's 2014 Women's Tournament by defeating Joey Ryan in the last round.
    • Defeated Amber Gallows in the final round of the Global Force Wrestling women's title tournament to become the first champion
  • Use Your Head: Headbutts are some of her most frequent forms of attack.
  • Wedgie: She gave one to Derek Drexl in NWWA (no relation) after pulling him off the top rope in retaliation for pulling on her tights during a spiked pile driver beforehand.
  • The Von Trope Family: Light version, since, being from a Parts Unknown location, Christina Von Eerie is not an evil foreigner type, except for when she is. However, she makes no allusions to being German, aristocratic or stern. Von Eerie may sometimes wish to be treated like royalty and can be nasty, but is an easy going goof at heart.
  • We Used to Be Friends: Las Gringas Locas and The International Home Wrecking Crew were allies in Mexico, Radiant Rain even subbed for Jennifer Blake in AAA. Rain and Von Eerie had a falling out in SHINE though.
  • The Worf Effect
    • Was one of the three wrestlers SHINE sent out to herald their organization's first show (the other two being Santana Garret and Daffney Unger). Guess how that worked out for them.
    • Essentially this the second time she showed up in TNA. She pretty much showed up to drop the GFW women's title to Sienna and then disappear again.
  • Xtreme Kool Letterz: TNA dubbed her Toxxin for her partnership with Ink Inc
