I don't know if any of you remember me from the wrestling threads of old (I used to be huge into the WWF/WWE... still pissed off about that time Jericho won the title but HHH overturned it), but haven't watched for years.
Anyway, I'm writing a short fiction story about an older female wrestler, and I was wondering if any of you have any good sites or references I could use to get details for the story? Things like what wrestlers (preferably female) have to go through. I might set the story in the 90's, so there'd be less wholly-slutty Diva's, but anything you think might work would do.
Feel free to PM me or post in this thread; I'll check back over the coming days. Thanks.
Wow how did they let that one slip through?Kelly Kelly's website accidentally posted a picture from a photoshoot with her nipple in it.

The 90's weren't exactly known for being a highpoint in women's wrestling, at least not in North America.

I'm actually looking to create a character that's closer to something like a Luna or Chyna, than any of the pretty valet's (Sunny, Sable, etc.). That's why I'm considering the slutty 90's era, because there were a few small pockets of legit female wrestlers in the limelight that had to deal with the majority of pretty faces with little-to-no wrestling talent that dominated the industry.Whoa, right there...
The 90's weren't exactly known for being a highpoint in women's wrestling, at least not in North America. (It was incredible in Japan though.) In North America, females were pushed more heavily into being valets than ever, especially after G.L.O.W., which tried to use the perceived momentum of the Wendi Richter/Cindi Lauper angle which captured mainstream attention in the early 80's, never really took off past the curiosity stage for mainstream viewers, and eventually failed completely in 1992.
So for most of the 90's it was three or four actual women's wrestlers of significance, like Madusa, Luna, and Jacqueline, (who was still a manager/valet for most of the 90s) plus whatever Japanese talent WCW brought in from time to time.
And as far as being "wholly-slutty," the 90's were probably the sluttiest era ever for women's wrestling. 2012 looks like a feminist's dream world in comparison. The biggest female "names" in wrestling in the 90's regularly showed up in skimpy lingerie and thong-back bikinis far more often than they'd lace on a pair of boots, and even when they would lace 'em up, there was still pressure to wear something skimpy. Both Luna and Madusa, (supposedly two of the "real" wrestlers in this decade) still wore outfits featuring t-backs...and this was ring attire we're talking about here.
Check this video out for a pretty accurate time-machine glimpse back to what the 90's were all about for women:

If the character in the story is pretty, it might be interesting to have that conflict in there. She wants to wrestle, but they just want her to be a valet.
Or, you could have her go off to Japan, where women's wrestling was peaking, where she didn't know anyone or speak a word of the language, ect. Or she could go to Mexico to do Lucha.
No WWE stuff on the new UK/Ireland Netflix... BOOOOOOOOO
Yeah, once GLOW and LPWA closed (both in 1992) there was literally no significant women's promotion in the US.
While that is true, I think the era is often perceived as being less slutty because the women actually wrestling were usually very muscle-bound and looked like wrestlers, like Luna, Medusa or Chyna, while the wannabe-models were more often valets or managers. Today it's gone the opposite way as, while the ring attire is a lot less skimpy, it seems women wrestlers need a pretty face and big cans to make it in TNA or WWE more than they need actual wrestling ability.
Not as of yet, there doesn't seem to be an upper limit on how much pointless wrestling knowledge I can fit in![]()

No doubt due to Sky. I'd imagine there's a bunch of good shows we won't see the service due to them.No WWE stuff on the new UK/Ireland Netflix... BOOOOOOOOO
So did the Charasmatic Enigma Jeff Hardy win?
Should've been a TLC match, Jeff is good at those
Jeff Jarrett apparently tweeted about Desperate Housewives and the Steelers loss during the TNA PPV last night.
He sure is!
Okay truthfully he is pretty entertaining in ladder matches, i'm thinking that the TLC match against Edge will be the next match I watch on the ladder match 2.
So apparently they're gonna announce someone for the HoF tonight.
Ooooh yeeeaah?

it was and is often more important for a women to look Playboy attractive than be a good wrestler, while, as you said, great wrestlers like Serena Deeb are barely given the opportunity to wrestle.
