Pro-Wrestling:EVE News & Events Thread

[The Dart]

Amber Vixon is her ring name. She had a tryout in April I believe.

 

Can she wrestle?

 

Dunno, never seen her.

[Big Rob]

Can she wrestle? Or does that not matter?

No, clearly it doesn't. That's no slight on Vicky, as I've never seen her wrestle, but it's pretty obvious that wrestling ability in the WWE women's division doesn't really matter so long as you're sexy.

Dann Read, the Producer of Europe's Pro-Wrestling:EVE, issued the below statement this past week.

 

 

Pro-Wrestling:EVE is committed to the progression of Professional Female Wrestling throughout Europe. The next few months will be telling as we separate those who believe in women's wrestling from those who don't and find out who's passion for the female industry matches our own. Everyone must be on the same page and everyone must be committed to their own improvement.

 

Pro-Wrestling:EVE works alongside some of the very best in the women's wrestling industry and supports the efforts of those doing the very same thing such as SHIMMER, Female Fight League, NCW - Femmes Fatales, ChickFight & many others around the world in addition to those who give coverage and support to the female wrestling business such as Diva-Dirt.com, CapruredBeauty.com, RedHotDivas.com, Wrestlegasm.com, WrestlingFusion.com, (there are so many I'm sorry if I haven't mentioned you, send me messages on twitter and I'll #FF to make up for it!).

 

We support them, they support us, we all support each other and we all have the same dreams and goals.

 

Not everyone will agree with this mind set and belief in female wrestlers and female wrestling. In fact some of the female wrestling industry's biggest critics are from females themselves - not approving of professional wrestling knows no gender specifics and rightfully so. We in turn wish them the best of luck with their own goals in life and bare no ill will or grudge. We are all unique and the world would be a boring place if we all felt the same about everything. But those of us who DO believe in the sport, performance art and entertainment of female professional wrestling do so with passion that is perhaps unmatched anywhere else and we will continue to do this for as long as we're in existence.

 

We appreciate those who support us and our efforts and we hope we can continue to rely upon you to keep spreading the word of the fantastic efforts being put forth by female wrestlers and staff members involved in these projects. We in return promise to give you nothing but 100% in effort, commitment and dedication to the cause - to produce a product that while perhaps not yet ready to be accepted by the masses is a product that we watch and enjoy not on the basis of it being a female product but on the basis of it being a GOOD product that challenges to change our mindsets and break down previously placed walls and barriers.

 

We know you know no ignorance, no prejudice and place no road blocks before us but simply put your trust in us to do right. We hope to live up to these justified expectations and do you proud.

 

Thank you for your support.

We at SHIMMER would like to stand alongside Dann in support and agreement with everything he included in that statement.

 

It is through the existence of companies like ours here in Chicago, PWWA in Australia, several promotions in Japan, and Female Fight League member companies Pro-Wrestling:EVE in Europe, nCw Femmes Fatales in Canada, and ChickFight in California, that women wrestlers have had the opportunity to display their true skills inside the ring, in an environment where they are the stars.

 

If it were not for all female professional wrestling companies promoting live women's wrestling events, many of the industry's best female performers would not otherwise have the opportunity to headline shows, wrestle a main event style, and be given the chance to show what they are really capable of. Each of these women's wrestling companies that promote live events in their respective parts of the world have also given many female performers the tremendous experience of wrestling in foreign countries. This has helped to both increase each wrestler's own worldwide reputation and visibility, and in some cases has added new influences to their repertoire that they may not have otherwise been introduced to.

 

We at SHIMMER consider those athletes who choose to ply their trade in the aforementioned companies first, when evaluating potential foreign imports for our future events. What each of these companies carry is credibility, and they choose to promote their events (and therefore each of their individual roster members) in the appropriate manner. They have the same goals as we do.

 

Though some in the industry may frown upon the idea of female wrestlers being able to headline their own events, and put on entertaining shows that rival some male dominated cards, there is no denying the place that all female wrestling companies have in our industry.

NOW AVAILABLE!

 

The Final Chapter to Pro-Wrestling:EVE Episode IV 'A New Hope' is now available to purchase on DVD! Just click on 'Shop' in the tab-bar on the left hand side of the screen. We have also just received new stock of Chapter One of Episode IV 'A New Hope' on DVD so those of you who missed out can now catch the entire debut event PLUS the two very special bonus matches!

 

***

 

Saraya Knight and Blue Nikita ended Episode IV Chapter One in the midst of a vicious brawl that saw security, ring announcers, photographers, EVE management and many more backstage hands try to separate the two. Now, we let them loose with no rules! It's do whatever you want to win the match as we let Saraya Knight & Blue Nikita go to war in a Falls Count Anywhere match!

 

Despite being just 23 years old "Coventry's Loudest" Jetta has done everything a female wrestler could want to do. She's competed for Ring Of Honor (one of only two British female stars to do so) and SHIMMER in the United States of America and held championships all over Europe. At Episode IV Final Chapter Jetta had her retirement match against a self chosen opponent in the form of her good friend Britani Knight and though it was meant to be a special moment between Jetta, Britani and those in attendance we have included highlights of that match on this very DVD.

 

In addition to Jetta's Retirement match we pay tribute to her by featuring not one but TWO bonus matches of Jetta that took place at ChickFight in 2008. The first see's Jetta team with the now retired Wesna Busic to face twins Holly and Hannah Blossom and the final match in the Jetta-Eden Black career feud - which was also the retirement match of Eden Black. This really was the war to settle the score!

 

It's Gym Warfare as The Northern Shooters battle Carmel Jacob & Sara-Marie Taylor of The Glamour Gym and Team Storm in a 1 fall triangle match and the predator known as The Alpha Female has her sights set on Melanie Price!

Ha, highlights only for purposes of kayfabe.

[Thunder Lips]

Good luck with this show, im sure it will be great

[Space Flying Tiger Drop]

Yeah interested to hear reports from this one, first show sounded pretty good.

[Snitsky's back acne]

Just started watching the second DVD release and have a few comments.

 

a) I hope Janey B still has a job now that Melanie Price is gone. She was quite the worker under her previous guise of Violet and I'm loving her new character.

 

b) what a loss to the European womens scene Jetta, Eden Black and Wesna Busic are. Also, it's a shame (for fans) that Team Blossom rarely compete over here any more, as both girls are great talents with a bright future. Team Blossom v Jetta and Wesna and Jetta v Eden Black were both very good matches by anyone's standards.

Stew Allen reporting

[Flash]

sounds good show, like the sound of norwich holding a show, mite be goin

[Bydo]

Sounds like a storming show. On that note, it doesnt surprise me at all that Nikki Storm stole the spotlight. She will elevate to Jetta and Saraya status in the not too distant future.

[AJS269]

Great to see Nikki doing well, she's the best in scotland imo. And has the talent to go far.

Sounds like I missed a hella of a show.

Whens the DVD coming out?

[$tew]

Just as a quick note here...

 

Match 2 was actually April Davids & Jenny Sjodin going to a double DQ with Amazon & Destiny - not a singles match. Amazon & Destiny were mistakenly omitted from the report that went up last night. It's been corrected on diva-dirt.com now, but the c&p bit above was before the edit.

 

Also, the dates for the next two shows...

 

April 8 - British Legion in Norwich

April 9 - Delphi Club in Sudbury

 

That's a Friday/Saturday double shot, and from the sounds of it will feature the tournament to crown the first EVE Champion.

[Snitsky's back acne]

Any info on Sammi Hope and MJ? Haven't heard of 'em before.

[DannRead]

Sometimes words are simply not needed....

 

 

 

And there's a LOT more to come from the Pro-Wrestling:EVE photo shoots that took place before the show!
