An unlimited class wrestler, Battleaxe is a massive woman that carries an axe as her weapon of choice. Defeating Titania in a wrestling match, she claimed the title as champion of the Grapplers. However, when Titania was slain by the Scourge of the Underworld, Battleaxe vowed to avenge her former teammate. She took out her aggression on The Thing, battling him in a wrestling match.
