“Drillbit” Dottie Betts

Dottie Betts

As the youngest of four brothers, Dottie Betts had no choice but to grow up tough. Although her mother spent almost a decade praying for a daughter to offset the excessive amounts of testosterone within the Betts's home, Dottie gravitated towards every activity that her brothers would partake in. Much to the chagrin of Mrs. Betts, Dottie resisted every feminine hobby and personality trait forced on her. In an attempt to curb Dottie's rebellious streak, Mrs. Betts sent Dottie to a finishing school for girls. By the end of the week, Dottie was expelled for fighting. 

The clashes between Dottie and her mother became more frequent, causing the former to run away from home and earn a living on the professional wrestling circuit. Initially, she was only responsible for taking tickets and working on the ring crew, but as rumors of her toughness spread throughout the locker room, promoters slowly began to work the teenaged Dottie into their match cards. By the late 30s, Dottie had become the face of women's wrestling, with copious scars, metal plates, and false teeth to prove it. 

Dottie's humor comes from the juxtaposition of her objective beauty and her overtly "masculine" nature. The subtlety of her comedic character will revolve around Dottie remaining feminine but in a masculine way. Something like, "Does this nail polish match the color of our tank?" In addition to that, Dottie should have a ton of false body parts. From false teeth to a glass eye, Dottie's body tells the story of her brutal history of violence more potently than her words ever could.
