December 1, 2023,
As we march towards the end of the year, fully competitive and Lady Pro women’s wrestling continues to march forward.
Filled with news.
Filling big shoes.
Let’s get started with some major Lady Pro news.
LuFisto Starts New Women’s Wrestling Promotion
We are always excited about a new women’s wrestling platform and the Lady Pro veteran LuFisto is painting the women’s pro wrestling industry with her vision.
As reported by wrestlinginc.com, “Hot on the heels of Sukeban premiering a Japanese women’s promotion in the United States, another all-women’s wrestling company is in the works. Announced earlier today by indie legend LuFisto on X (formerly Twitter), the Women’s Wrestling Syndicate — “built by women, for women” — is in the process of getting all its ducks in a row to launch its first event.”
Much anticipated news.
The informative wrestling source pwponderings.com adds, “Lufisto states that she wants to provide a safe space for women in professional wrestling. There have been some issues recently stemming from all women’s promotions that have been run by men, but Lufisto assures us that this will truly be an all-women’s promotion, from the staff to the locker room. She states that they will announce their first event soon and that it will be in her hometown of Montreal.”
LuFisto, is a French Canadian professional wrestler.
Our Canadian star has been wrestling for various promotions since 1997 and has made a major name for herself throughout the years with great tactical and entertaining wrestling skills.
At cagematch.net, two appreciative followers share their feelings about her dedication.
“A hopelessly adorable, insatiably badass French-Canadian women’s wrestler. She’s a tougher wrestler than most men and clearly loves her job. Her Deathmatch stuff was insanely impressive as is her normal stuff. I hope she continues to perfect her craft for many years to come.”
And another?
“She can literally do it all in the ring, from technical grappling to hardcore brawling. She’s overcome so much (including an early stroke) to continue doing what she loves. She’s never made it big, despite her boundless talent. Hopefully it’s not too late for her to finally get the credit and respect she’s earned. An inspirational woman, and one of my favorite wrestlers (male or female) of all time.”
Good to know. We will keep our eye out for her new promotion and keep you updated.
DECEMBER 2023 LONDON WOMEN’S SUBMISSION WRESTLING EVENT
According to their website thesubmissionroom.co.uk, the Submission Room will be having a competitive women’s wrestling event on December 9, 2023. Go to their website for ticket information. We’ve found their events to be incredible.
INTENSE VIDEO, ANETA VS LEGEND EVA N.
We have been glued to the screen to watch DWW legend Eva N. on her comeback tour. This beautiful girl fights hard but in the modern era where women in our industry have mastered MMA skills, we have yet to see Eva win a match.
Her opponent here is Aneta.
Aneta has struggled to win in her previous matches as well.
This is an important point.
We would not describe either of them as “jobbers” because they fight hard and both could easily defeat entry level girls.
Since both of these sometimes “testy” fighters are seeking an important victory, which may be close to their first, we sensed this match would be intense and it was.
This is a firecracker match. No pacing themselves here. They really go at it.
You owe it to yourself to travel to Female Wrestling Zone, become a member and watch this match.
You will not be disappointed.
