SHIMMER Volume 33 Taping Results Live from Berwyn, Illinois

Diva Dirt is on hand at this weekend’s SHIMMER festivities in Berwyn, Illinois where the company will be taping four volumes worth of footage. Keep checking back throughout the weekend for exclusive news, results and more.

Below are taping results for SHIMMER Volume 33.

SPARKLE (Pre-Show)
* Mia Yim and Taylor Made def. Mena Libra and Maya Svensson. Mia picks up the win via roundhouse kick. Good showing by all four girls, Mia and Mena in particular.

SHIMMER Volume 33
1. Jessica James & Rachel Summerlyn def. Athena & Bonesaw Jessie Brooks. Rachel and Jessica win with a gory bomb/stunner combo on Athena. Good match by all the girls. Athena was the standout. Her moveset and spoiled brat gimmick is very entertaining.

2. Cat Power def. Jamilia Craft. tCat Power wins via uranage slam. Very slow paced match-up. Not the best showing from either girl, but a decent match.

Amber interviews Jessie McKay but Madison Eagles interferes and takes over the interview. Amber announces Melissa vs Madison for the title. Madison says, “It’s all about ME!”

3. Allison Danger def. Leva Bates. Danger wins via shimmering warlock. After the match Danger puts over Leva and Veronika Vice tries to run in and attack her. Danger asks why she’s here and Veronika says she wants her shot against Danger and challenges her for the next volume.

4. Melanie Cruise def. Taylor Made. Cruise wins via Cruise Control. Melanie completely dominated Made in a total squash match.

Melissa appears on screen and calls out Eagles. Says she’s tired of getting screwed out of the title. Says she going home with gold tonight.

5. Misaki Ohata def. Ariel. Ohata wins by submission. Surpisingly good match. Best I’ve seen Ariel in a long time. Misaki pulled out several submissions during the match-up.

Kellie Skater comes out and challenges anyone in the locker room. Her challenge is answered by Serena!!!

6. Serena def. Kellie Skater. Serena via spear. Skater dominated after Serena misses a spear in the corner, but makes the comeback in the end. The crowd goes wild and chants ‘Welcome back!’ Serena celebrates with the fans and looks very emotional. Very touching moment.

In Review: Pro-Wrestling: EVE’s “Episode 4: A New Hope (Chapter 1)”

May 2010 saw the launch of Europe’s very own all-female wrestling promotion to sit alongside the likes of SHIMMER, WSU and Femmes Fatales which have cornered the US and Canadian market in the past few years. Coming from former ChickFight producer, Dann Read, it was evident that EVE would be no flash in the pan based on the success of ChickFight’s transatlantic shows in the UK a few years back.

‘Episode 4: A New Hope (Chapter 1)’, a long winded title as it may be, is the first the DVD release from the Suffolk, England-based promotion, with a promise of spotlighting the best of Europe. The title is pretty confusing, especially for a fledgling company trying to work up an audience. “If this is episode four, where are the first three?” is one question that I suspect may be asked often. Then there’s the ‘Chapter 1’ sub-sub-title. To clarify on that, two DVDs worth of footage were filmed on May 8th, which I’m presuming is why this is ‘Chapter 1’, with ‘Chapter 2’ to follow.

The theme for the DVD is a spoof of Star Wars, a unique approach by a wrestling promotion, which should set it apart from the SHIMMERs and WSUs. The DVD artwork and opening of the show both bear a nod to Star Wars (complete with scrolling text going up the screen!), which while indeed camp, kitsch and silly, are pretty befitting of British humour and I likened it to the old ‘Carry On’ films that are very quintessentially British.

Lucha Libre USA (Episode 5): Kong Raids Again

It’s the “Better Late than Never” edition of our Lucha Libre USA write-up! Two weeks ago, we saw the emergence of Amazing Kong, rising from the waters of Tokyo Bay…err…I mean, making her return to television. This week we have a rematch: it will be Mini Park & Amazing Kong taking on The Fabulous Chi Chi and Tigresa Caliente. Can the Tigress bury her fangs into her opponent? Or will Kong triumph again? Watch below!

Out first is The Fabulous Chi Chi (sporting a pink bikini top and white skirt bottom…can I call him Skirt Chi Chi now? Also a red boa and hot pink wig & boots. Hot!) and Tigresa Caliente (wearing the same tiger-striped outfit & mask as last week – LOVE it! Especially the mask!). The duo look supremely confident as they enter the ring. Out next is Mini Park, then Amazing Kong. Stoic looking as ever, her glare as she enters the ring is enough to send Chi Chi and Tigresa scurrying to the outside. We go to break before the match begins.

Back from commercial and we’re starting off with Mini Park vs Chi Chi. They mix it up for a minute or two before Tigresa enters the ring (without a tag, much like last time) and forearms Park in the back. She gets him in a full nelson but before Chi Chi can take advantage, Park kicks Chi Chi, then elbows Tigresa in the face! Chi Chi whips Park off the ropes, laying down infront of him but Park jumps over him, Tigresa jumps over Park, then jumps over him AGAIN on the rebound, and she dodges the springboard moonsault attempt – only to be nailed by a dropkick from Park! Chi Chi has exited the ring but at this point re-enters to battle Park. Tigresa wisely rolls to the outside as the two rumble on the inside.

Detailed Weekend WSU Results: Mickie vs Martinez, Kong, Alicia and More

Detailed results from WSU’s shows on Friday and Saturday night below, courtesy of the company. A DVD release of both nights’ action, titled ‘When the Tigers Broke Free’, will be available for shipping on August 20th. You can pre-order by clicking here.

The leader of womens wrestling in the United States today, Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU) returned this past weekend and made history once again. This weekend saw the most high profile challenger to date challenge for the WSU World Championship. In addition, WSU icon Alicia won the WSU Spirit Championship from arch-rival Brittney Savage. However, the biggest news of the weekend could be the announcement made by former WSU World Champion Angel Orsini, as Angel Orsini debuted a brand new “All Guts & No Glory” Championship to WSU and immediately defended it against Awesome Kong. It was a wild whirlwind weekend for WSU, and this news update will get you up-to-speed.

On 8/6, as part of a jointly promoted show with our big brother promotion, National Wrestling Superstars (NWS, NWSWrestling.com), NWS promoter Joe Panzarino announced that there would be a special four-corner intergender tag team match. Panzarino called out Danny Demanto, Nicky Oceans, Little Guido & Mikey Pacifica to the ring, where each wrestler would announce their partners. However, this led to a war of words and a pier-6 brawl breaking out between all four men. NWS security had to break this violence up. NWS commissioner Gino Moore ruled that since these men couldn’t hold their rage in long enough to announce their partners, that he would personally announce their partners later on in the evening.

MATCH ONE
WSU Tag Champion Jana w/Cindy Rogers d. Marti Belle w/Tina San Antonio
Jana, a WSU original from day one, and an accomplished singles wrestler in her own right, defeated Marti Belle after her Jana-vice. (Front facelock submission). Marti Belle showed fire against the veteran, but the mean streak of Jana was too much to overcome. While Marti Belle put up a valiant effort in an attempt to make a crack for her Belles Saints tag team in the WSU tag team division, Jana showed why she was championship material.

MATCH TWO
Niya d. Rick Cataldo w/Brittney Savage & Alicia
Yes, you read that right, ALICIA, accomplanied Rick Cataldo to the ring. It was announced by WSU that Angel Orsini, Alicia & Brittney Savage all had major announcements to make on 8/6. Before this match, we found out two of them. Brittney Savage announced that the newest member of the Cosmo Club was Alicia! Alicia confirmed the announcement and begrudgingly made it clear that if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. Savage made sure to let Alicia know that she was the star, and it looked like the former WSU Tag Team Champions were on the same side. However, Alicia had a bigger announcement to make later on in the evening…
