Her Story:
Amy was born on March 9, 1959 to Arnold and Ethel Adams in Mobile, AL. She is the twin sister of A.J. Adams, older by fourteen minutes. Wrestling flowed within her blood seemingly from the time she could walk. Being Arnold's only daughter yet also the oldest child, she wrestled with her brothers throughout her childhood.
In high school, she was the outcast cheerleader. While she was quite popular, her dark hair set her apart from the rest of the predominately blonde cheerleaders. Despite this difference, she became cheer captain her junior year. In that year, she fell in love with Kevin Andrews, the nose guard of the dreaded Gulf Shores Dolphins. Despite the great rivalry between their high schools, the couple continued to grow together. They were married on March 20, 1978 at Calvary Baptist Church, Mobile, AL.
When Arnold decided that managers were needed in the MVW, Amy jumped at the chance. She was brought in as 'Excellent' Xavier Cross' manager, opposite 'Sensational' Seth Greeley's “sister” Jessica. The two women began a great feud that sparked many matches throughout the 1970s and 1980s. The constant wrestling with her brothers and her boyfriend/husband helped make Amy the most dominant female wrestler in the MVW.
Amy and Kevin have one child, Noah (Arkangel). They worked together to get Blue Grass Wrestling off the ground in Kentucky. As of July 2010, the Andrews are still living in Glasgow, KY and running BGW successfully.
