Seems everywhere in wrestling the women are taking over and that’s a good thing. From the WWE Diva’s and the TNA Knockouts to Shimmer and Slammin Ladies Custom shoots, women are working hard to show the viewers they are not just eye candy. I wish to add the northeast based Women Superstars Uncensored to the list of women’s promotions that kick ass for the fans to enjoy.
WSU is an off shoot of the men’s promotion Wrestling Superstars Unleashed which had some issues in 2007. Since its creation they’ve had the biggest names in wrestling grace their ring. Missy Hyatt, Tammy Sytch, Ivory, Traci Brooks, Luna Vachon, Christy Hemme and the ladies listed in this review that are looking to be come international stars in their own right. The promotion has a DVD deal with www.doiwrestling.com and they sell their items through their site www.wsuwrestling.com where you can buy these two recently released DVD’s. Both were filmed on 6/21 in Boonton, New Jersey and feature commentary from Sean Hanson plus special guests Alicia, George Frankenstein and Ms. Hyatt.
The Show Must Go On:
Mercedes Martinez vs. Kacee Carlisle
Angelina Love vs. Portia Perez
Missy Hyatt’s Manor with special guest Becky Bayless
The Beatdown Betties (Rick Cataldo & Roxxie Cotton) vs The Soul Sisters (Jana & Latasha) & Missy Sampson/Alere Little Feather
Awesome Kong vs. Cindy Rogers
Kylie Price vs. Lea Morrison
Becky Bayless (w/Angelina Love) vs. Dawn Marie (w/ Missy Hyatt)
WSU Women’s champion Angel Orsini vs. “Pryme Tyme” Amy Lee
Army of One:
Missy Sampson & Alere Little Feather vs. Kacee Carlisle & Kylie Pierce
Cindy Rogers vs. Lea Morrison
The Beatdown Betties (Rick Cataldo & Roxxie Cotton) vs The Soul Sisters (Jana & Latasha)
“Pryme Tyme” Amy Lee vs. Awesome Kong
Dawn Marie & Portia Perez vs. Becky Bayless & Angelina Love
WSU Women’s champion Angel Orsini vs. Mercedes Martinez
In addition on this DVD you will see Angel Orsini vs. Nikki Roxx from the 5/31/08 JAPW show.
Both DVD’s were filmed via digital video and their camera crew takes you right in the ring. Hanson is excellent and funny as a commentator and his audio should show up on your DVD player or you need to switch the audio input. I would pay Amy Lee a dollar to see her cut a promo without using more curse words than Shane Douglas ever did in his entire career. It took me a minute to figure out the concept given to the Beatdown Betties and when I did I found them to be fun and entertaining. The best match from both DVD’s was Orsini vs. Martinez from Army of One. Awesome Kong is impressive as ever and her match with Lee is excellent. There are some ladies on here I would like to see wrestle again even in the TNA or WWE ring. I look forward to seeing the next WSU DVD releases in my mailbox. Go to www.wsuwrestling.com for DVD and event information.
WSU will be holding two shows in August. Friday the 22nd they will be at the Shark River Hill Firehouse Hall, 200 Brighton Avenue in Neptune, NJ. The 23rd sees them perform at the Knights of Columbus Hall, 94 Bridge St in Bellevue, NJ. Some of the matches on these DVD’s led to matches on those two cards. Remember to support independent wrestling because the current stars in WWE and TNA didn’t just come out of a factory assembled for superstardom.
