Yung managed to keep her belt, [[RulesLawyer but never in convincing fashion]], being left laying several times and beaten decisively in a non title match. She decided to avenge this humiliation by traveling to Texas, where she found much success, but very little of it came at Athena's expense, who continued to beat Su for the most part when they were matched up. She eventually joined Athena's company and its representing team.

** From the moment of Athena's transition from valet to wrestler in Arlington based Professional Championship Wrestling, she had a rival set up in "The Angel Of Mercy" Claudia due to Athena's association with Claudia's nemeses "Angel Of Wrath" Mace Malone and "Angel Of Misery" James Johnson. They ''[[WouldHitAGirl usually]]'' couldn't harm Claudia directly, [[DesignatedGirlFight so Athena would have to do it for them]]. After seven years Athena's association with Malone and Johnson became looser and she gained her own personal reason to fight Claudia:to defend her AIW Women's title belt when Claudia challenged her for it in Metroplex Wrestling. Their relations weren't all hostile though. Athena hired Claudia for and chose her as a representative of her own company, Queens Of Wrestling.
** Alektra Blue was initially caught in the middle of Athena's rivalry with Claudia, but decided to side with Claudia against Athena and went on to become a persistent rival to Athena as "Angel Blue" in Anarchy Championship Wrestling, particularly over the American Joshi Title belt.
** Athena may have been one of Anarchy Championship Wrestling's most popular wrestlers, but she was still in the shadow of Rachel Summerlyn and not content to stay there. Though Athena did beat Summerlyn in some GimmickMatches, when it came down to one fall to a finish Summerlyn usually won and ultimately walked away from their feud with the American Joshi belt. Their rivalry also extended to SHIMMER, IWA Unlimited and Traditional Championship Wrestling, where Summerlyn tended to keep beating Athena, though Athena did beat Rachel at SLA in a number one contender's match for the American Joshi belt.
** JessicaJames, James and Athena started out as partners in Professional Championship Wrestling but every other promotion besides Shine Wrestling, where they were part of a team [[PowerStable Valkyrie]] selected [[EnemyMine for destruction]], pitted them against each other instead. They had a particularly long feud in Anarchy Championship Wrestling, particularly over the American Joshi title, with James alternating between herself and her "Lady Poison" gimmick.

** Athena and Heidi Lovelace joined forces to defeat The Killer Death Machines in All American Wrestling, but once that was done Heidi challenged Athena for the AIW Women's title belt. After losing Heidi decided to join Athena again to try and win the AAW tag team title belts, but when they lost in the finals of the tag tournament Heidi challenged for the AIW belt again and won. Getting signed to WWE didn't end or even put this rivalry on hold, as Heidi, now being billed as Ruby Riott, took Liv Morgan, who had been Athena new TagTeam partner and formed the Riott Squad with her and Sarah Logan to continue antagonizing Athena, who was now being billed as Ember Moon. WWE had tested how Riott and Moon worked as a tag team on some house shows however.

* DoubleEntendre: She had a signature move called the Ultimate Back Slash. It referenced that she was billed from several cities (with a backlash in between introductions) and that the move was a backbreaker.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: As she challenged for the NXT Women's Championship, her blonde tips changed to silver. She added purple to her hair around the time she won the title.
* FaceHeelDoubleTurn:
** In 2012 she made her ''SHIMMER'' debut as a heel against babyfaced Jessie [=McKay=]. In 2016 she made her WWE debut as a face against the same woman.
** She initially competed as a heel against Mercedes Martinez. A match between them went to a double count-out, and Mercedes started attacking Athena and tried to break her ankle. This turned Mercedes heel and Athena face.

'''Adrienne Reese''' is an American professional wrestler.
She first trained under Skandar Akbar and Booker T, competing on the Texas independent circuit first using the name Trouble. However she became more familiar to fans under the name Athena - dubbing herself 'The Wrestling Goddess'. The year 2012 was very kind to her - featuring debuts at ''{{Wrestling/SHIMMER}}'', ''{{Wrestling/WSU}}'', ''AAW'' and ''Shine Wrestling''. She quickly drew lots of talk for her notable finisher - a diving stunner from the top rope, named the 'O-Face'.
As WWE slowly took a renewed interest in women's wrestling - and Athena being noted as having the 'Diva Look', fans started to wonder if the promotion would ever come calling. They finally did in 2015. Now christened '''Ember Moon''', she debuted at NXT Takeover Brooklyn II in a victorious effort against Wrestling/BillieKay. As of November 2017 she is now the NXT Women's Champion.
!!Just remember one trope starts a fire:
* AmazonianBeauty: She's very thick and muscular.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Her diving stunner finishing move. It's an amazing move that definitely shows how athletic Ember is, but its difficulty makes it very easy to botch and could potentially cause tailbone fractures.
* BadMoonRising: Her entrance video shows one.
* BigDamnHeroes: She saved both {{Wrestling/Aliyah}} and Wrestling/LivMorgan from a double team by Peyton Royce and Billie Kay.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Despite being presented as a 'dark' wrestling character, she has played a face the entire time she's been on NXT.
* DarkMagicalGirl: Her heel persona as Athena fit quite close to this. There are also certain supernatural elements to her character on NXT that evoke this too, even if she is presented as a face.
* DoubleEntendre: She had a signature move called the Ultimate Back Slash. It referenced that she was billed from several cities (with a backlash in between introductions) and that the move was a backbreaker.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: As she challenged for the NXT Women's Championship, her blonde tips changed to silver. She added purple to her hair around the time she won the title.
* FaceHeelDoubleTurn:
** In 2012 she made her ''SHIMMER'' debut as a heel against babyfaced Jessie [=McKay=]. In 2016 she made her WWE debut as a face against the same woman.
** She initially competed as a heel against Mercedes Martinez. A match between them went to a double count-out, and Mercedes started attacking Athena and tried to break her ankle. This turned Mercedes heel and Athena face.
* GameBreakingInjury:
** Subverted with her torn ACL. She took a couple of years out to heal it, but returned and ultimately claimed a WWE contract.
** Briefly taken out of the NXT title picture thanks to a dislocated shoulder from Asuka.
