After graduating from high school, Tabitha faced a difficult decision
in determining what to do next with her life. She considered attending
college but recognized that she was not yet ready to be serious enough
to make that type of commitment. She decided instead to travel with friends
for a year and set out for Europe, intent on backpacking from country
to country. While in Spain, she learned about an apartment wrestling convention
in Madrid and decided to attend on a lark. Accompanied by two friends
she met Barbie Mayfield, Dixie Monroe and Lisa Nash. She also met Tanako
X, who spoke with her at length about her sister Veronica.
After returning back to her hotel, she joked about the convention with some of her friends. As they laughed, their playful banter became a little more animated and one girl began teasing her, pretending to grapple. Tabitha surprised everyone in the room when she deftly wrestled the girl to the floor and applied a hammerlock. "Something my sister taught me," she explained.
