Patricia was born to Darren (von Hoyningen-Huene) Harrison, a second generation German-American and Margaret (nee Bell). She also has an older sister, Anna. Her father was in the US Navy, which required the family to move around alot. They lived in Texas, Washington (state), Japan and even to Germany for the first 7 years of Patricia's life.
Growing up, she took in everything she saw on her family's many travels. From the exotic landscape of Japan to the gothic fashions of Germany. She began expressing her feelings of all the sights she's seen through art. Though their were alot of good times, her family seemed to shrouded by her father's dark side.
When her father's tour of duty was over, the family settled in Fresno, California. Patricia went to high school and made few friends. At home her father was becoming less of a role model and their happy family was being torn apart. He had become abusive, verbally and eventually physically to her mother. It forced her older sister Anna to run away from home. She ended up living on a commune, becoming hooked on drugs.
Patricia also could not take seeing the abuse her father delivered and one day threatened his life if he ever abused her mother again. She and her mother also ran away from home. Patricia began to slip into a bit of darkness herself. Her mother began trying to find comfort in drugs or with other men and the two of them argued constantly sometimes coming to blows.
Patricia moved away from her mother after she turned 19. She got a job at a small Italian ice cream shop, and used the money to get her first tattoo. She moved into an apartment near San Francisco and shared it with two roomates Steven and Jacqueline. It was they who also nicknamed her Rikki. They all hung out in clubs and bars enjoying the nightlife. Rikki took to the underground culture of San Francisco as well.
She developed a taste for the flamboyant and theatrical clothes of Japan and mixed it with the gothic darkness she had seen during her time in Germany.
One night while hanging out in a bar she and her friends saw a flyer for a mud wrestling contest that the bar was holding that weekend. They all signed up for it, however when the day came only Rikki was willing to participate.
She wore a spiked collar, rainbow socks on her arms and died her naturally blonde hair a deep red and cut it much shorter than usual. She wrestled under the name Rikki Riot, and against a 22 year old college student named Becca Explosion. The crowd went crazy for Rikki, as the college girl was no match for the Red head vixen.
For weeks, Rikki would compete at that bar and around the city challenging men, women and in between. After about a year she retired from mud wrestling in bars. She decided she wanted to start a web site. She recruited a few of the web design students from Steven and Jackie's college to help her create the site. It was a domination site where guys would pay, come to their apartment and have Rikki, well dominate them. The web design crew even volunteered to be the first "victims".
The site was a moderate success and Rikki was somewhat of a folk hero in the neighborhood. In 2007 NLZ Rebel Wrestling alliance was holding a show in the San Francisco area. Rikki and Jackie attended, someone in the audience recognized her and began to chant her name. After one of the original NLZ Vixxenz, Athena match was over she called out Riot. The audience loved it and Riot went inside the ring, the two just stared each other down but it electrified the building.
After the show, NLZ owner Dallas Henrdy met Rikki at the local bar. They spoke and Dallas said that she was familiar with Rikki's work. She offered her to sign with NLZ to compete in their Vixxxnz division. Rikki accepted and the next day she signed on to make it official.
Since joining the NLZ 5 years ago, Riot has fueded with almost every vixxxn on the roster and held the Women's title once in 2009. Over the past year she has teamed with Alexus Benz to form the heel stable "Fallen Angels" in an attempt to re-gain the title and keep it between the two of them.
In real life, Rikki has moved to a home in Florida with two dogs Tempest and Betty. She shut down her original site and started a new one that covers her career. She has used her money to help get her mother and sister clean, which has been a struggle but her sister is now clean and sober. Their mother is still working to get clean. Her father has remarried and has 3 more kids with his new wife but Rikki has had limited contact with him since they're family split.
