[edit] Career
Veronica (Ronnie) Stevens studied karate and ballet before getting into wrestling. She trained along side stars such as Lance Cade, Spanky, American Dragon, and Michael Shane to become the only female graduate of Shawn Michaels’ Texas Wrestling Academy. She made her in-ring debut as Simply Luscious against Chris Marvel in San Antonio, Texas, claiming she got the ring name "Simply Luscious" from her (now) ex-husband.
