Glamour Girl Judy Martin to be Honored at CAC Reunion
The Cauliflower Alley Club has announced that it will honor former Glamour Girl and WWF Women’s Tag Team Champion, Judy Martin, with its Women’s Honoree Award at the 2012 CAC Reunion.
Martin was trained by the likes of The Fabulous Moolah, Joyce Grable and her future tag team partner, Leilani Kai.
Judy held the WWF Tag Team Championships along with Leilani Kai, collectively known as the Glamour Girls, on two occasions. They first won the belts in August 1985, losing them three years later to the Jumping Bomb Angels in January 1988 at the first ever Royal Rumble pay per view. The Glamour Girls would regain the championships, however, just six months later in June. The titles were later dropped by WWF in 1989 with Judy and Leilani being recognized as the last champions.
She also competed for the WWF Women’s Championship, challenging champions Wendi Richter and Rockin’ Robbin. Martin challenged the latter for the title at the 1989 Royal Rumble.
Outside of WWF, Judy has worked for WCW, Ladies Professional Wrestling Association (LPWA), New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) and the NWA.
Other female honorees at the 2012 CAC Reunion include Wendi Richter, who will receive the Lou Thesz Lifetime Achievement Award, and former WWE Diva Ivory, who will receive the 2012 Women’s Wrestling Award.

The 2012 CAC Reunion takes place from April 16-18th in Las Vegas. More details and tickets here.
Congratulations to Judy!

Good for her. I like to see former wrestling females to be honoured in any way. Shame there isn’t more women being inducted into the WWE’s Hall of Fame.

Judy was one of the best. I can’t believe sunny made it to the hall of fame before women like Judy, Leilani Kai, Velvet McIntyre, Luna Vachon ect..

I loved the bomb angels too :) There are so many WWE can choose from. Miss Elizabeth, Madusa, Bull Nakano. I really think it’s too early for Trish Stratus to be inducted. But i got a feeling she will be the next woman inducted.

I don’t get how it’s “too early” for someone to be inducted, if they made a big enough impact in the company they should be in the HOF, Edge retired last year and is in it this year.
Many said it was “too early” for Randy Savage and now look what has happened, rest his soul!
