Tabitha Van Dyne looks like a bubbly college coed ready to pledge a sorority and in a way she is. Like a sorority pledge who is considered a legacy, Tabitha enters Apartment Championship Wrestling following in the footsteps of her older sister, apartment wrestler turned attorney Veronica Van Dyne. Although acknowledging her sister's influence, Tabitha is determined to make a name for herself and doesn't want any special treatment because she walks in her sister's shadow. She is concerned, however, that like a sorority pledge, she may face a certain amount of additional hazing because of her sister.

Tabitha, eight years Veronica's junior, grew up reading about her sister's exploits. Although exciting by the fame and publicity, she seemed very unlikely to follow in her sister's footsteps. For much of her early life she behaved as a normal child and blossomed into womanhood like an average teenager. Boy-crazy and headstrong, however, she soon began hanging out with a "dangerous" crowd of friends. In trouble constantly in school and with local officials, Tabitha was fortunate in that none of her infractions landed her in serious trouble. "It seemed like no matter what kind of trouble I got in, nothing stuck," she said. "I was able to wiggle my way out of any problem. My friends started calling me "Vegas" because I was always so lucky and the name stuck."
