Top ten women’s WrestleMania matches

WrestleMania

In the last five years, the WWE women’s division has grown leaps and bounds from the way it used to be presented. The drastic change in the impact and quality of their appearances at the company’s biggest event of the year, WrestleMania, is a definite indication. WrestleMania 35 is this Sunday and it will feature … Read more

Lana and Rusev to co-write comic book with Jason Starr

Lana and Rusev

In the latest episode from their vlogging channel, Lana and Rusev revealed that they will be co-writing their first comic book together. The comic book will be called Dark Country. Keeping the project under wraps, they declined to divulge anymore information apart from the title.

The WWE couple will be working on it with Jason Starr. Starr is perhaps best known for his work with both DC Comics and Marvel on works such as Wolverine Max and Punisher Max. Starr has also produced novels based on Marvel’s Ant Man character and DC/FOX show, Gotham.

Furthermore, the real life couple announced that they are holding a contest for aspiring comic book artist. In search of designers and artists to illustrate their story, Lana and Rusev suggest curious viewers to submit their portfolio to [email protected]. Winners for the paid opportunity will be chosen on May 15.

Considering the couple’s recent vocal frustrations with the company, it’s interesting to see them invest in non-WWE opportunities such as this. Perhaps it’s an attempt to add to their stock in case they do decide to walk away from WWE.

Stay tuned with Diva Dirt for future updates regarding winners for the contest and more details on the couple’s comic.

Allie written off Impact in controversial death scene

Allie

Last night, the latest AEW signee, Allie, ended her time with Impact in dramatic fashion. In her final appearance, her character was killed off when Su Yung stabbed her in the neck.

The “Against All Odds” special was the culmination of the Demon storyline. Rosemary brought Allie to “The Undead Realm” to save her soul. In the end, she sacrificed herself to save Rosemary, suffering a bloody death at the hands of Su Yung. The act of love reunited her with soul, making her whole again.

As previously reported, All Elite Wrestling confirmed Allie signed with the promotion in a recent episode of “Road to Double or Nothing.” This was the last of her tapings with Impact after they decided not to renew her contract. However, this goes to show there was no animosity here.

Allie even went to Twitter to express her satisfaction with how her time with the company ended.

https://twitter.com/AllieImpact/status/1111846943242809344

There is some mixed reaction among fans, but this indicates how much Impact valued her contributions to the promotion. Wrestlers don’t always get a proper send-off, so it’s telling that they took the time to write her off and wrap up her story with Rosemary.

What did you think of “Against All Odds”? Are you excited to see what Allie will does next AEW? Drop a comment below.

Killer Kelly vs. Valkyrie at PWU’s Celtic Cup

Free Match Friday is a weekly feature from Diva Dirt. Every Friday, we’ll spotlight a great indie match available to watch for free online. Some of the best wrestling in the world is happening in high school gyms and sports bars and even, occasionally, in an appropriate venue for a wrestling match. This week, our free match is a terrific title match between Killer Kelly and Valkyrie at Pro Wrestling Ulster’s Celtic Cup.

It is my solemn belief that Killer Kelly and Valkyrie could wrestle each other for ten, fifteen or twenty years without turning in a bad match. That might seem a mad thing to say about two wrestlers who’ve only met twice in the ring. But they have such a fantastic natural ring chemistry that I’m certain they’ll only get better as time goes by.

We previously featured their stellar match at the German Wrestling Federation in this series, which I praised for its verisimilitude, the quality of appearing to be real. This week’s match, which saw Killer Kelly challenge Valkyrie for the PWU Women’s Championship, is a little different.

First and foremost, while booked as tweeners in their GWF match, here we have Valkyrie as the heel champ, as a member of the Rocky Starr Experience. Killer Kelly is the face and the crowd is one hundred percent on her side. The match is a picture perfect “coward vs hero” match, with Valkyrie spending long stretches of the match running away and even using a fan in a wheelchair as a human shield.

But where many “coward vs hero” matches end up frustrating and boring because of, well, the running away, this match never is. It uses just as much cowardly heel shenanigans as it needs to build just enough frustration that every strike Kelly lands on Valkyrie is like a huge cathartic release. And it lets Valkyrie be as crafty as she is cowardly, using her tactics to not just avoid damage but deliver it. Much like their first match, it’s by no means flashy, but it is a simply excellent iteration of a familiar genre. I can’t wait for the rubber match.

Check back in with Diva Dirt next week for another great free match from the world of independent women’s wrestling. You can find even more matches AND support independent women’s wrestling over at ClickWrestle.
