December 15, 2022,

Happy Holidays to all of you.

Competitive female submission wrestling is the gift that keeps giving.

Let’s start our news with that.

WRESTLING MONICA – SEXY COMPETITIVE VIDEOS

These videos from Monica’s most recent event are a special treat.

It is as though we stepped back in time.

We loved the snail mail days where newer girls, no real MMA training, back in the late 1990s and early 2000’s, stepped onto the mats. Their wrestling style was usually a sexy ground struggle and TPC wrestling of England and Flamingo of Florida produced that really well.

As we’ve said, while we admire and primarily review the videos between elite female submission wrestlers in our industry, there is always room for the newer curvy wrestlers who want to perform competitively as well.

That being said, Wrestling Monica really did it sexy right during her most recent event.

We purchased Yuri vs Tamsin Riley, Ivy Rain vs Nika, Miss Vox vs Inferno, Nika vs Yuri and Ivy Rain vs Tamsin Riley.

Yuri vs Tamsin Riley is an incredibly sexy video because both girls are shapely, are not highly skilled in MMA which leads to extensive ground and leg struggle. Yuri is extremely shapely, shy and feminine while gorgeous Tamsin Riley has clearly been doing her butt workouts in the gym.

That shapely bottom is spectacular.

A special find is Nika, a sexy athletic Auburn to strawberry blonde maiden who absolutely knows her MMA training well, especially against a fantasy wrestler like Ivy Rain, who does wrestle competitively from time to time but we figured she would get completely dominated against a MMA trained Nika.

It delivered in shapely stars.

Ms. Vox vs the legendary Ivory Princess Inferno was more of a technical joust and the back and forth was intriguing. Any match with Inferno in it, who appears to be comfortable getting dominated against the elite wrestlers, has pride at stake against the steady Vox who has defeated many of her Bulgarian contemporaries like the curvy resident hottie, Cheetah.

If Nika dominated a veteran in Ivy rain, you can imagine what she is going to do to Yuri. One thing, among many, that we love about shapely shy Yuri is that she always gives her best.

In conclusion on Nika, and we really mean this, she is special. We hope she comes back again. We are absolutely ready to purchase.

Then Ivy Rain vs Tamsin Riley. Both buttery tasty girls have wrestling experience but an MMA struggle this will not be. It will be the old school shapely ground level grappling struggle and boy did it deliver.

Watching these videos was like going back in time. Very shapely delicious. Tasty too.

A perfect gift, just in time for the holidays.

GORGEOUS NEW SESSION GIRL

We give a shout out to Italian Female Wrestling because they are doing an incredible job recruiting beautiful women who not only wrestle at their club but are very adventurous and travel to compete beyond their borders.

At different time periods a particular country produces some incredible fully competitive female submission wrestlers. The USA and the Danube region did back in the late 1990’s and 2000’s, England has been a mainstay for decades, and still is, but we really appreciate the emergence of Italy and the sensational Session Women and Competitive Wrestlers they are giving birth too.

Love the look and wrestling of some of the current stars in Bianca, Gaia, Angelica KO, Ivy Santinee and sexy Samantha among others.

Now meet Michela.

At her profile she states, “Hi everyone, I’m Michela and I’m working with ItalianFemaleWrestling.com since 2018.

WOMEN’S MMA – HUGE NEWS

The female freestyle wrestling world has taken decades to become accepted and respected with the men’s programs.

Primarily the women’s wrestling programs were in the WCWA and NAIA, smaller organizations compared to the nationwide and powerful NCAA.

Once Iowa University, a power 5 school, announced they would field a women’s wrestling program; that opened the door for other Division One schools to follow.

What many did not see coming, including us, was the wrestling program could secure a major sponsor like the UFC.

As reported by hawkeyesports.com, “The University of Iowa Athletics Department and its multimedia rightsholder, LEARFIELD’s Hawkeye Sports Properties, today announced that UFC®, the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization, will serve as a proud sponsor of the men’s and women’s wrestling programs.

This marks the first college sports sponsorship for UFC, which chose Iowa for its longtime tradition of wrestling excellence within the men’s program and for support of the university’s newest intercollegiate program, women’s wrestling. Iowa is the first NCAA Division I Power Five institution to offer the sport, as announced Sept. 23, 2021, with Clarissa Chun serving as the team’s first head coach.”

Look out world.

Once the sponsorship money starts flowing, most likely other Division One schools, just like in football, will want to secure some large sponsorship money as well.

Expect more women’s wrestling programs to emerge at other Division One schools.
