Women's Wrestling

[Kid Kamikaze10]

If Eve were to incorporate MMA instead of Gyymnastics moves that might make her ring skills seem better.

If she doesn't have the ring awareness/intellect to utilize them properly, it'll look like crap though.


ie: Whenever Angle, or either member of the American Wolves and O'Reilly attempt a more MMA oriented match.

[Gryphon]

Maybe send her back to FCW for a bit like they did with Rosa.

I liked Rima on Tough Enough. Any word on what she's up to?

I think her pageant obligations end this month or just recently ended. She is in Hugh Jackman's Robot Boxing Movie coming out this October as well.

I love women's wrestling, but I never really found a place for Joshi--it always seemed either to violent/unsafe and or too unrealistic for the same reason I don't like lucha libra style...

I'm not going to try to change your mind, but I assure you that Joshi looks more violent than it is. That ring is smaller and harder and the shoots are really intense, but I think that those women are really well trained and really careful when they come to their spots. Granted, I can understand why you're turned off by that.

Sir, I will not have you insult my internet wife's tattoos. I challenge you to a duel. In front of the tumblr' shop at internet dawn.

your wife? but she's my wife! damn you, man!

*Considers for a moment.* No, still not seeing that.

So we're gonna do this, huh? -breaks bottle- We're really gonna do this? Okay. Let's do this.

For those of you that liked that suplex I posted earlier, here's the new suplex machine, Hikari Minami doing what she's does best at 17 years old:

Command Bolshoi vs. Hikari Minami

Starting at about 4:30 she hits a sick rolling superplex into a bridging fisherman's suplex!

Tsukasa Fujimoto & Hikaru Shida vs. Riho & Hikari Minami
Here's a tag match where she pulls out some twisted pin combos.

I know it's a rematch but she gets busted open the hard way here:
Hikari Minami vs. Command Bolshoi

Kid has got a future I think.

If they are serious about women wrestling, then they have to be given time. There is no motivation to become better when you know your match is going to last 90 seconds. I dont think the KO's are much better than the Divas, but they get more ring time and it shows.

[Genki Sudo]

Hikari Minami!!! SMALL Package-O!!!

I raise you a=

I don't think the WWE is serious about women wrestling. But then again, WWE isn't serious about any type of wrestling.

The KOs are actually worse in ring than the upper-tier Divas.

A decent amount of time makes a big difference. You are right. Getting that time though is going to be an issue.


They are booking the DoD pretty badly right now, take the sails out of the feud between them and Kelly Kelly. Beth and Natalya should be out destroying the division right now, showing why they are a threat.

But really, it's been the opposite: Kelly Kelly has been far more active than them.

It sucks because this DoD vs KK feud could have done a lot for the division if booked better.

Honestly, any promotion that gives a damn about women's wrestling should be scouting this. And maybe CHIKARA's Joshimania as well.

It could have been something awesome but all it turned out to be was just showcasing how "awesome" Female Cena is. If they really want to take that DoD angle seriously then they should have had Beth win the championship from Kelly but having Kelly beat Beth just took away what made DoD credible

Oh, and for the next SHIMMER taping, here are the people showing up.

The usual suspects

SHIMMER Tag Team Champions Daizee Haze & Tomoka Nakagawa

Is Daizee actually recovered from her health issues enough to wrestle?!?!?!? From looking at the pictures of her online, I expected her to be gone for like a year...
