Extras
Backstory: Nadezhda Kovalchuk grew up longing for a life of extravagant spending. Nadezhda was her father's 'little princess', which means she was put first when it came to spending (any) extra money her (already poor) family got, Nadezhda wanted to learn ballet, she would get lessons, Nadezhda wanted to learn archery, she got lessons, and so on. Nadezhda eventually wanted to learn how to wrestle, and she didn't need to go far to find lessons, her father (Zlatan) used to fight bears when he was a teenager, for people's entertainment. Meeting both Vesta and Bonita, in the same part of the British wrestling circuit, the three became friends fast, during that time she also met Damocles. Nadezhda was often broke due to paying for lavish items, champagne, limos, designer clothing, and so on. Nadezhda was the perfect candidate for 'Greed', being so money-hungry (with good reason), but never truly knowing how to limit her spending. She has been with the 'Lucifarian Family' since the start of her career.
Trivia:
Nadezhda is cowardly in a Jimmy Hart way, she'll piss someone off, during a promo, and run away once she feels like she's in danger
Nadezhda is a showman (Show-woman?) because she's more show than work, meaning she works exceptionally quick matches
Nadezhda's role is as the heart (and wallet) of the group
Nadezhda is Charming, Cowardly, Greedy, Loyal, Self-Confident and Vain
Nadezhda knows how to keep herself out of harm's way
Nadezhda can keep a close group of friends together
Nadezhda can sort out differences between people quite easily
Nadezhda is very hard to plan simple matches for
Nadezhda is even harder to get to participate in tougher, more challenging matches
Nadezhda cares more for money than people deep down
Nadezhda dislikes: Government, Black Ice, Museums, Neon colours, Beer, Christmas, 4th of July, Bears, Sunsets, Orchids, Hail (Weather), Short skirts, Ripped clothing, Caves, Giant suids,
Nadezhda's named moves are jokes on the fact that she is greed, such as Gold Digger and Diamond Ring. However, Money Maker is also a joke on the fact that it's a facebuster, and usually an actor's face is called their 'money maker'
Nadezhda hates Hulk Hogan and Sgt Slaughter, because of how patriotic they are

Sr. Victoria Kovalchuk wanted to be a missionary in South America, but God had other plans for the Catholic convert from Crimea, who is now helping the refugee population in Greece.
“My dream was Brazil,” she said in an interview with EWTN News in Athens. “I didn’t go to Brazil and I think now it will not be [a] big problem if I will not go there because I really fell in love with Greece.”
“And this is the best place for this time which God gave me,” she said. “This is the place where he speaks to me through the country and through the people that I am working [with] every day.”
A Holy Spirit Missionary sister, 38-year-old Kovalchuk and other members of her community serve the refugee and migrant community in Athens together with employees and volunteers of Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS).
She said she has no power to change the physical and political situation of asylum seekers in Greece, “but what I can do is love.”
“I tell them: I came here to be with you in your situation. When you cry, I will be with you. When you laugh, I will be with you. I can show you a little bit of love that I have.”
The sister said she also tries to teach people about the origin of her love, that “Jesus is the one who brought me here, who put this love inside me and [allows] me to leave my family and my country…”
During the refugee crisis of 2015 and 2016, Greece saw the arrival of over 1 million refugees.
While the number of people entering the country in 2020 was drastically lower, there were still over 15,000 new arrivals, mostly from Afghanistan, Syria, Iran, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
