Lesbian Wrestling League (Series Book 1)

Product Information

After Morgan defeated both Mercedez Blaze and Taonga in a recent match, the duo decided to join forces to team up against the wrestler. But Morgan doesn’t have to worry about taking on the fierce pair alone as “The English Rose” Jetta will be fighting alongside her as part of their new tag team, The Royal Aces.

I was over the moon about how many [people] reached out and could relate, even I didn’t realise at that point how many people were like me [struggling],” Morgan said. These depictions were damaging in their ability to define lesbian identities to wrestling audiences, but they also masked the industry’s actual lesbian history. Names like Susan Green and Sandy Parker defied women’s wrestling gatekeepers like The Fabulous Moolah that did their best to outlaw LGBTQ wrestlers’ public expression of their identities within their stables. The image of Deville running through a Pride celebration on Total Divas exclaiming “I’m gay” is a GIF that plays on repeat in the minds of many (including me). The excitement in her voice perfectly matched with the joy on her face is both a landmark and an image that no one with knowledge of any mainstream pro wrestling programming from 1995 onward ever thought they would see. Moone regularly wrestles alongside her Simp For The Business squadmates in Versus Pro Wrestling, FSW Vegas, Paradigm Pro Wrestling and has appeared for Hoodslam in the past as well.

I’m just happy that I can be a voice for people that might be going through that part of their journey right now, or a different experience that might be difficult. I was always looking for that representation to kind of reassure me that it was OK to be who I was, and there wasn’t much of it when I was growing up. Especially in my small hometown. It just wasn’t that prominent to be open and out. As a result of the growing public and societal acceptance of diverse lifestyles, more and more athletes and celebrities are feeling safe enough to come out and embrace their orientation proudly. The erroneous stereotypes of being gay meaning you’re weak or strange are being shattered every day and that is especially the case in the wrestling world. If you blinked in 2006, you may have missed this buxom beauty’s run in the WWE under the ECW banner. Shelly Martinez was signed by WWE in mid-2006 to be a valet for wrestler Kevin Thorn, a failed short-lived character who was previously another failed and short-lived character, Mordecai. Thorn was an odd vampire character and Shelly was his gothic, witch-like manager named Ariel. Katch captured the Pro Wrestling Magic Women’s title and starred in multiple promotions across the country. Her tag team with EFFY, collectively known as Bussy, thrilled in tag team action as well, challenging for the GCW Tag Team titles and embroiling themselves in a battle with Matt Cardona and Chelsea Green. She capped off the year by making her AEW debut on AEW Dark, cementing herself as one of the most exciting and unpredictable forces in pro wrestling today. Jetta told PinkNews that she is excited to join Morgan in the ring as she feels they “bring out each other’s strengths” and “complement each other” in wrestling as well as in real life.

She told PinkNews some people in the wrestling industry “felt my promo was unnecessary” and that “real life didn’t need to be spoken of” in the ring. The country has made great strides with increasing awareness on the subject of homosexuality and transgender issues through PSAs and through advocacy groups educating the public. The movement by the LGBTQ community was centered on the desire not to be shunned for their differences but to be accepted as part of the fabric of society. As a Mexican American kid growing up in Los Angeles, Jake Atlas was raised on lucha libre. He’s recounted in interviews that when he came out to his family as a teenager it didn’t go well. Nevertheless, Jake knew who he was, and he also knew he wanted to be a pro wrestler. In time his family came to accept and support him, and his dream of pro wrestling has also come true. He came out publicly after winning the 2017 Southern California Rookie of the Year Award, and he’s been on an upswing ever since.

So, yeah, I take kind of like a personal responsibility to be that openness for kids or young people that are in the shoes that I was in a decade ago.” Johns described the months-long process it took them to understand their identity as “some of the hardest of my life” but found “peace with myself” in putting his identity out in the open. “Telling people has been terrifying, but each time I was met with absolute love and support, which made me wonder why I was ever scared at all,” Johns said. It’s something that’s super important because I went through that same journey that a lot of people are going through in the LGBTQ community, which is struggling with my sexuality and being open about it,” Deville said on Outsports’ LGBT In The Ring podcast. “That’s the position I was in seven-plus years ago.” WWE Raw Women’s champion Rhea Ripley showed Johns support, saying, “So proud! Love you,” in a reply to Johns’ coming out post. Prior to Ripley’s time with WWE, she and Johns regularly worked together, clashing over the Adelaide-based Riot City Wrestling Women’s championship, a title both held at one time.

With Lucrezia and Venere in such leopard print thonged one-piece suits, even the warm-up becomes a show in the show. After arm-wrestling, everything is ready for the match. Campbell features prominently in Alabama-based New South Pro Wrestling. He captured the company’s tag team titles alongside Brayden Tool earlier this month on New South’s weekly IWTV program, Action Clash, defeating the team of Hunter Drake and Tyler Franks and the team of Suge D and out pro wrestler Donnie Janela. And the two in-ring veterans are soon teaming up yet again as a new tag team duo who will undoubtedly win matches and fans’ hearts.The match is really interesting, a 100% physical confrontation all based on muscles and power. You have rarely seen Venere forced to make such a great effort to give serious trouble to her opponent. Sonny Kiss is going places! He was an underused highlight of the last season of Lucha Underground, where he was known as XO Licious. Then he signed with All Elite Wrestling. He didn’t get nearly enough to do at Double Or Nothing, where he participated in the Casino Battle Royale, but he did have a memorably funny spot with Tommy Dreamer, and he at least made enough of an impression to make Jim Cornette uncomfortable, which is never a bad sign if you ask me. It’ll be really exciting to see where his AEW career goes from here, especially when the TV show starts this fall. Over the years, she learned to accept herself and live her truth, which helped her feel “ready to take on the world”. After she came out publicly, Morgan recalled receiving a “very overwhelming and completely unexpected” outpouring of support from the LGBT+ community. In a revealing and heartfelt Facebook post titled “ Here Goes Nothing,” Cage detailed how he kept the information from going public for so long because he feared rejection.

Reigning New South Pro Wrestling Tag Team champion Sean Campbell came out as bisexual in a fashion true to himself. “I be bisexual n shit,” Campbell tweeted on Tuesday. Campbell said his statement was the end result of trying to write a coming out post for an hour. “This is the best you’re getting,” he added. And in all that, you can still enjoy some spectacular and acrobatic moves that do justice to the skills and agility of the IFW girls! The iconic match-up is scheduled to take place on 22 March as part of PROGRESS Wrestling’s “Who Run The World?” show at The Dome in London. The event will highlight the star-studded female talent in the PROGRESS line-up. Venere has now switched to a more aggressive mood, but Lucrezia shows everyone how strong she is, trying to resist and not giving up. With some more training she could easily be a top wrestler, however today she is facing a determined and proud fighter with one only goal in mind: winning.Morgan announced her retirement from wrestling after suffering a devastating injury in 2019, but she triumphantly returned to the ring just two years later. The Mother of House Hoodslam. The High(est) Priestess of the Church of Wrestling. The founder of the Accidental Phenomenon. Dark Sheik contains multitudes, and all within her comes through when she steps into the ring. The 20-year veteran continued to break barriers for trans and other LGBTQ communities in wrestling in her most high-profile year to date. Hoodslam’s return in front of 2,000 fans was only the tip of the iceberg. Sheik defeated Titus Alexander for the UGWA San Jose title, rechristened it the Oakland title and then reintroduced herself to Game Changer Wrestling.
