* [[Always Someone Better]]: With Dixie. Unusually for this trope, it's not ''just'' because Dixie once defeated Aisha. As Aisha explains before their match in Aisha's storyline, it's also because Aisha was born poor and had to work her way up to wealth, while Dixie has always had money. Also, in Aisha's opinion, Dixie always "acted like the queen of high school."

* [[Always Someone Better]]: With Aigle, but a much more mild example than Aisha with Dixie. Makoto does not hold a grudge against Aigle like Aisha does with Dixie; rather, Makoto thinks Aigle is strong because Aigle beat Makoto before and Makoto wants to get strong enough to beat her. They're rather civil to each other (at least by this trope's standards) even before they become friends.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Time to psych up! Fight, fight, fight!!!" She says this twice: once at the beginning of her own storyline, and once in Reiko's storyline before Reiko and Makoto's match.

* [[The Power of Friendship]]: Makoto believes in this. Her theory is that everyone has inner weaknesses they try to hide, but friends can help each other overcome them and become stronger. The power of friendship works in this example; it allows Makoto to break Aigle free of Anesthesia's brainwashing in Makoto's storyline, much to Anesthesia's disgust.

* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: And she stands out for it, in this game of [[Kayfabe]]. Makoto compliments Candy Cane and Reiko after beating them, Reiko has to tell Makoto to lay off the "Miss" stuff, and Makoto thinks all her matches are learning experience for her to grow stronger, whether she wins or loses. This is how she's able to break Aigle's brainwashing later on in her storyline, and Reiko is heavily taken aback in Reiko's storyline when Makoto shows up brainwashed by Anesthesia into being cold-hearted.

It also travels around the entire ring, so in order to escape it you need to briefly duck out of the ring or time where you move to dodge it. Luckily it's a super move so Lady X needs at least one bar to do it.

The character sheet for the all-female wrestling game series Rumble Roses.


Baby Face Personas

Reiko Hinomoto

  • All Japanese Face
  • Bare Your Midriff
  • Fan Girl: Reiko is a big fan of Aisha's. Too bad Aisha treats Reiko with disdain when they meet, believing that Dixie must have been "trippin" to be excited over Reiko and that Kamikaze Rose must have been spinning in her grave.
  • Jack of All Stats
  • Meaningful Name: Her surname literally translates to "Player One" in Japanese.
  • Momma's Girl: Frequently asks her dead mother in heaven to watch over her, and fights her matches and advances in her goals for her mother's sake.
  • My Hero Zero: Her wrestling moniker is "Zero Fighter".
  • Panty Shot: Her hot pants are perpetually unzipped, revealing her panties' waistband.
  • To Be a Master: Reiko's goal is to be the greatest wrestler the world has ever seen, to make her mother in heaven proud of her.

Dixie Clements

Aisha

Makoto Aihara

  • Always Someone Better: With Aigle, but a much more mild example than Aisha with Dixie. Makoto does not hold a grudge against Aigle like Aisha does with Dixie; rather, Makoto thinks Aigle is strong because Aigle beat Makoto before and Makoto wants to get strong enough to beat her. They're rather civil to each other (at least by this trope's standards) even before they become friends.
  • Catch Phrase: "Time to psych up! Fight, fight, fight!!!" She says this twice: once at the beginning of her own storyline, and once in Reiko's storyline before Reiko and Makoto's match.
  • Genki Girl
  • Fragile Speedster
  • Idol Singer: her superstar gimmick
  • The Power of Friendship: Makoto believes in this. Her theory is that everyone has inner weaknesses they try to hide, but friends can help each other overcome them and become stronger. The power of friendship works in this example; it allows Makoto to break Aigle free of Anesthesia's brainwashing in Makoto's storyline, much to Anesthesia's disgust.
  • Yamato Nadeshiko: And she stands out for it, in this game of Kayfabe. Makoto compliments Candy Cane and Reiko after beating them, Reiko has to tell Makoto to lay off the "Miss" stuff, and Makoto thinks all her matches are learning experience for her to grow stronger, whether she wins or loses. This is how she's able to break Aigle's brainwashing later on in her storyline, and Reiko is heavily taken aback in Reiko's storyline when Makoto shows up brainwashed by Anesthesia into being cold-hearted.

Aigle

Judgment/Yasha (alternate)

Noble Rose/Fujiko Hinomoto (alternate)

Rebecca "Becky" Walsh (alternate)

Miss Muriel Spencer

  • Armor-Piercing Slap: All of her punch attacks open with one of these.
  • Badass Teacher: She prefers to stress the fact she's a teacher. The fact she can suplex people half retarded is just gravy (as far as she's concerned).
  • Christmas Cake
  • Hidden Depths: Just scroll down to Mistress Spencer.
  • Hot Teacher!
  • Improbable Age: According to her profile, she's 28. But it's also said that, prior to being a schoolteacher, she was also a wrestling instructor, which explains how she carries her weight in the tournament, but not really how did she link these careers to one another.
    • It's implied in her dialogue she's had more than one teaching position, so she may have been a wrestling teacher for the PE department before becoming a more regular teacher.
  • Meganekko
  • Misplaced Kindergarten Teacher: She joins the fray when seeking Candy Cane out.
  • Mighty Glacier
  • Only Sane Man: With the exception of Dixie, she's pretty much the most level headed character in the cast, mainly by virtue of not giving a crap about the Kayfabe the other characters take seriously.
  • Zettai Ryouiki

Anesthesia

  • Absolute Cleavage
  • Big Bad: And a non-spoiler example of this trope, since even in storylines where she first shows up as a friend offering an opportunity such as in Makoto's storyline, Anesthesia's "offer" is heavily loaded with creepy undertones, and whichever girl the player is playing is heavily creeped out by it. In Reiko's storyline, Anesthesia's first introduced as the bitch who brainwashed Reiko's sister.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Considering she's a face, even though she makes no real attempt to hide her bitchiness.
  • Deal with the Devil: In most storylines other than hers, Anesthesia offers the girl in question an opportunity to become even stronger. They all refuse for different reasons; Makoto wants to get stronger through training and perseverance, Aisha finds Anesthesia creepy and wonders what her deal is, etc.
  • Hello, Nurse!
  • Jack of All Stats
  • Mad Doctor
  • Naughty Nurse Outfit
  • Psycho Lesbian: Has some really blatant Les Yay for most of the cast, and a remark she makes about "Miss Walsh" (Candy Cane) has Miss Spencer rather understandably worried for her student's continued state of virtue.
  • Sexy Stewardess: Her Superstar gimmick
  • Underboobs: In her Superstar outfit.
  • Wham! Line: Minor example in Reiko's storyline when Reiko expresses a desire to make her mother "up there" proud of her: "UP...there? Hm? She could be DOWN there for all you know. Right next to your sister." It's sort of true; it turns out Lady X, the final boss, is a cyborg made from Reiko's mother's DNA.

Heel Personas

Rowdy Reiko (a.k.a. Queen Cobra)

Sgt. Clemets

Showbiz/Sista A

The Black Belt Demon

Killer Khan/Great Khan

  • Dragon Lady: complete with a qipao-styled dress.
  • Facial Markings: Wears white makeup and red facepaint
  • In Name Only: Killer Khan is the ring name of an actual wrestler. Subverted in that Aigle!Khan's fight style (roughneck, sometimes with weapons) and nationality (Mongolian) are actually similar to the billing of the real life Killer Khan's. Hence, she was renamed Great Khan in RRXX.
  • Lightning Bruiser
  • Third Person Person

Bloody Shadow/Benikage (default)

Evil Rose/Fujiko Hinomoto (default)

Candy Cane/Rebecca Walsh (default)

Mistress Spencer

Dr. Cutter/Dr. Anesthesia

Lady X Substance/Lady X Subsistence

  • All Your Powers Combined
  • Cybernetics Eat Your Soul
  • Luke, I Am Your Father: She's actually Kamikaze Rose, Reiko and Fujiko's Missing Mom. And it's when looking for her that Fujiko gets turned into Evil Rose.
  • One-Winged Angel: in the first game.
  • Ridiculously Human Robot
  • Shout-Out: The Substance/Subsistence is reference to the Metal Gear Solid series.
  • That One Attack: Albeit a very mild example. Lady X has an attack where she repeatedly spins her top half in a spinning punch attack, traveling around the ring. She can't be hit or grabbed in the middle of this attack, and if you get hit by it you'll be knocked up into the air by a mile and take a lot of damage.
