Vicious Vicki eyes the Awesome Championship Wrestling women's title as she gets set for No 1 contender match

Vicious Vicki is once again crossing the Jersey state line in hopes of getting back into the Awesome Championship Wrestling (ACW) Women’s Championship picture on Saturday.

She will be one of 10 women participating in a battle royal to determine who is the No. 1 contender for the title held by Steph De Lander. Vicki was able to get one up on De Lander at Reckoning when she pinned her to win a tag team match. But at Indypendence Day at the MJN Center in Poughkeepsie, New York, the stakes a just a little bit bigger.

Vicki told Fox News Digital in a recent interview she’s done being looked over and stepped on by her opponents.

"Look, I've been a part of ACW since its inception. I have been the, yes, self-proclaimed ‘Queen of ACW,’ but at the same time, I have been stepped on, walked all over, just overlooked, overshadowed, and I just feel I have 10 other women who have no business being in that ring," she said. "And I feel like I'm just going to throw them all over and prove yet again why I should be the ACW women's champion.

"Now, I know I have to get the contendership to do that, but there have been multiple times and multiple occasions where I should have been in the title picture or had the title. So, Saturday is going to be a proving ground yet again at why I'm the best in ACW."

Vicki, a New Jersey native, is passionate about the sport and her craft.

She said she fell in love with pro wrestling watching WWE Hall of Famer Lita and The Hardy Boyz in action during the Attitude Era. Since then, all she could think about was achieving her dream of becoming a pro wrestler.

"I have been a fan for pretty much my entire life. Four years old, I was watching the Attitude Era and just watching these larger-than-life characters and really just fell in love with it," she said. "I always wanted to be like Lita. That was like the initial thing. I wanted to be just like Lita growing up and the Hardy Boyz and what have you. And yeah, it was just one of those things where I loved it and I was an athlete growing up and all I talked about was wrestling.

"All I thought about was wrestling. ‘How am I going to make this a real career?’ Then, I went through some stuff growing up, but it finally happened. In 2018, I finally took the leap and I knew that if I didn't do it or if I didn't try that, I would regret it forever. It was like one of those things where I was like, if I don't live this dream out, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

It was the pageantry of the sport mixed with its athleticism that drew her in.

"I think for me, it was just this perfect blend of acting and athleticism and the outfits and I just think it was just so mesmerizing as a kid," she said. "Then as I got older and started having new interests like being an athlete and doing musical theater and stuff like that, I feel like it was just literally a perfect blend of everything I loved. So, it was like this just like I said larger-than-life, amazing show that I felt like I have to be a part of this. But again, it's deeper than that.

"Us die hard wrestling fans, it's just the stories and being connected to these people and wanting to be like these people and, believing that, hey, I can do this, too. I think for me growing up, it was a matter of like seeing someone like Lita like jumping on the scene and this beautiful girl and doing all these crazy things, it just kind of made me believe in myself that I could do it, too."

On Saturday, she said fans who come out to ACW Indypendence Day will be treated to a one-of-a-kind experience that no other independent promotion has to offer.

"ACW is one of the hottest things going right now," she told Fox News Digital. "It is literally one of the biggest independent companies right now. There's everything. First of all, it's in a historic building. So that's No. 1 right there. The talent on the card is bar none the best in the world. I think what Vik (Dalishus) and Hale (Collins) are doing and whatnot, it's really special. It’s been thriving.

"I think people have a ball. Every single time that I go to a show and whether I'm doing meet and greets or if it's before the show, after the show, everybody's just so happy to be there. They are so excited for the show. It's very family friendly. And it's for the smart marks, too. It’s just a really great company and I don't know one person who has had a bad time at ACW."
