In terms of fully competitive women’s wrestling video matches, they don’t get any better than this. Kim Biceps of Hungary, vs Siren Max of Ireland. Lots of hard wrestling, flaring tempers and “oops”, profanity. This is an intense match that is bound to go down as a classic. You can find it at Antscha’s store on Clips.

DANUBE WOMEN’S WRESTLING

We made a run to the border. The one near the Danube in Europe and went girl crazy. Nothing like walking back down memory lane, purchasing and reliving some great battles. What brought this all up was that we were writing about the legendary San Francisco Virago girls on Grappling Stars, who went to Europe and wrestled some of the Danube girls in Petra, Luzia, Daniela and Evi, to name a few.

Amy O, Grace, Stephanie, Lonnie, Yana and River will always be in our hearts.

What impressed us most in our purchases was the exceptionally clear video quality. Often when we purchase from producers, whom we loved back in the snail mail days, the video quality is a little faded. Not with Danube Women’s Wrestling. Because their team was innovative in being one of the first companies to use DVDs, the quality is exceptional.

We will do some match reviews in the near future inside both FCI Women’s Wrestling Magazine and their battles with San Francisco’s Virago girls on Grappling Stars.

KINGPYN WOMEN’S BOXING

They appear to be new on the scene but boy are they stirring up some excitement.

Kingpyn is their name and sexy female fighting is part of their game. A major part.

We stumbled upon them on YouTube and are over joyed. Typically during the weigh in, it is the Ring Girls who are the sexiest. Here, by far, the sexist girls are the combatants.

They talk a lot of smack during the pre-fight media day and the boxing appears to be real and not staged. Ready? Check out these YouTube links:

WWE WOMEN’S NEWS

As reported by cultaholic.com, “Back when the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships were introduced in 2019, the initial idea was for the champions to be travelling titleholders, competing on all three of WWE’s brands – Raw, SmackDown and NXT, defending the gold against any and all-comers. Whilst this was utilised vaguely, the idea was dropped fairly quickly and they became main roster exclusive for the most part, with NXT eventually getting their own set of Women’s Tag Team Titles.”

Good to know.

We’ll keep watching.

The leader in presenting female college wrestling news, teamusa.org informs us of a major sponsorship decision.

“The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference has announced the adoption of women’s wrestling as the 22nd conference-sponsored sport, the league announced Thursday. The RMAC mandates that a minimum of five member institutions, including associate members, sponsor a sport to earn conference-sport sponsorship from the league. The announcement comes during the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the enactment of Title IX.”

Bravo.

HISTORIC EVICTA WOMEN’S ANNOUNCING TEAM

The informative source mmafighting.com posted “Invicta FC will make history in the broadcast booth at their May event in Denver.

“The promotion announced on Tuesday that Invicta FC 53 will become the first major MMA event to feature an all-women commentary team. Former fighters Julie Kedzie and Megan Anderson will provide color commentary, while Aly Trost Martin will be the play-by-play voice for the event, which takes place May 3 at Reelworks Denver and will air on AXS TV and the Invicta FC YouTube channel.”

Good for Megan.

The team at awfulannouncing.com adds, “The pivot from actively competing to commentating on sports is a tough one in many sports. MMA broadcaster Megan Anderson has recently made that move, shifting to broadcasting after her final fight in 2021 (at UFC 259). She currently serves as an analyst and an interviewer of fighters for ESPN’s UFC coverage, a sideline reporter and backstage interviewer for PFL, and an analyst for Invicta FC. In a recent phone conversation with Awful Announcing, Anderson said she is enjoying that career shift despite the hurdles.”

You guys remember Megan, right?

Megan is an Australian mixed martial artist who competed in the Women’s Featherweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Anderson also competed for the all women’s MMA league Invicta Fighting Championships, where she won the Invicta FC Featherweight Championship.

In terms of her stint in the UFC, Anderson was scheduled to face Amanda Nunes on December 12, 2020 for the UFC Women’s Featherweight Championship at UFC 256. However, it was announced on November 9, that Nunes pulled out due to an undisclosed injury and the bout was postponed to 2021.

The pairing was rescheduled for March 6, 2021 at UFC 259. Megan lost the fight via a triangle armbar in round one.

The title fight was the last fight of her prevailing six-fight contract with UFC and the organization opted not to renew it, making her a free agent.

In February of 2022, Megan posted in her social media that she is no longer pursuing fights, and is not affiliated with any teams or organizations.

When she made that decision, we thought it was a good one.

Get out while your brain is still in one piece.

We think announcing is a better option for Megan.

PFL WOMEN’S NEWS

Once Kayla Harrison made the decision to pursue other options and not be the main draw of the PFL, the question that rattled around the female MMA world was, what would life and ratings be like after Kayla Harrison is gone?

It appears someone is ready to step up and answer that question. Julia Budd has never been one to be shy.

Will the women’s division thrive without Kayla?

The insiders at cagesidepress.com share Julia’s thoughts, “Absolutely. I think that we bring exciting fights, I think we’re awesome athletes. I think in Bellator and PFL, they’ve been showcased, the 145’ers. They’re showcasing us. And they’re showing how exciting and good we are.”

Okay. If you say so. No Kayla? We’ll have to wait and see.
