Ronda Rousey Give Divas a chance, WWE NXT,and how it all helped start a WWE Woman’s revolution Everything Written below as always is my opinion as a wrestling fan. I'm not a "wrestling expert" nor proclaim to be one -please read and enjoy :) :) if you enjoyed this blog then ... LIKE my page on Facebook click this link here https://www.facebook.com/Jonswrestlingblog?ref=hl  and click "Like" on my page Or Follow me on Twitter @jon422002 To me the story of the women's revolution In WWE has been one of the big news stories of the year. the re-emergence of Women's Wrestling in 2015 is redefining the business itself and the genre.

Pro Wrestling Pride - what goes into running a show?

Pro Wrestling Pride - what goes into running a show? Have you ever gone to a Wrestling show as a fan and wondered what It takes and what has to happen to put the show on that you are going to see? I was curious, so I was given a very privileged opportunity recently to see exactly what it takes to put a show together at Pro Wrestling Pride. This is a very different blog for me, usually I'm doing show review or talking about an aspect or storyline of wrestling but this time it is a little different. This time I'm talking about what it takes to put on a show. Now despite what I have written there will be even more too it and aspects here I don't touch on, but hope this is able to give you idea of how a UK Wrestling show comes together and give you an insight. Pro Wrestling Pride is a company founded in 2013 and they run shows all over Devon, Cornwall and Somerset with great UK based talent mixed in with stars from USA from WWE TNA and more also combine...
