I've seen some unbelievably beautiful bodies that have been ruined by an over-abundance of tats...so maybe I'm biased. At any rate, the good news is that it looks like there's going to be a Women's Wrestling convention this September (see Sleeperkids site). Now for the bad news..One of the main wrestlers willl be Hurricane Havana - as in outdated fake pro-style crap and "tasteful costumes" that don't excite or titilate evil horny perverted men who actually have the nerve to become aroused at the thought or site of 2 women engaged in FvsF. I'm not sure if any of you remember -
1. The rant she went on against catfight and topless/nude competition (which is a bit more understandable when you're the proud owner of a breast job that looks like it was done by Edward ScissorHands...on crack) or
2. The complete failure of the last event HH tried to pull off
...but as the joke goes:
Question What's the difference between the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Havana?
Answer At least folks showed up for Hurricane Katrina... CHHPPSOB SA
(Glad you had the decency to do that, SketchArtiste, but you did what you did.) I'm only gonna say somethin' new here to everybody about the WWC and pro fem wrestling in general, inasmuch as it might relate to HH and other pro fem wrestlers that plan to attend (Fantasia, for example).
I have nothin' to do with the WWC, but I can tell everybody right now good as gold pro fem wrestling is not gonna be a major feature of the WWC, or you're gonna see the attenders askin' for their money back faster than a shot o' whiskey down your throat. Personally, I do like an admire the pro women wrestlers a lot, but if they're there, and they do a pro match or two, it'll probably be just to round out the show. I wouldn't attend otherwise, and I venture to say that goes for the vast majority of the potential audience The pro's could--if they do it right--give performances that would be great (and, then again, the opposite might happen). My point is, with this now being the 4th time the WWC will (hopefully) happen, now or next year, this event has matured to the point where the "veteran" and even the new wrestlers--pro, amateur, or both--know what everybody expects, and, with more and more of the cost of the upcoming WWC being paid for by the fans, no wrestler is gonna risk disappointing them. It's a given that the target audience of the pro's is not in the crosshairs of the WWC, period. Relating HH's past conventions to what she has the potential of doing--and, more importantly, would do--at this premier type of convention is useless. The pro's aren't just stuck in that genre. They can--if they want to--be very flexible and adaptable, and that goes for all of the women (14 so far, including HH, whether they're pro, amateur, or both) who are listed as planning to participate.
All the women wrestlers know this.
Actually, if it could be done, I'd like to see genuine topless fem wrestling, as well. (I'll go even further, I think a majority of the WWC audience would, and that should come as no surprise to anybody. Hmmm, ... maybe THAT ought to be polled.) Guess what ??? ... Maybe you would if the morons at the local permit dept. would wake up. Maybe that could change. Like Dr Chin said, HH has already done this (even if it was staged), and, no, I don't think, unlike Jim surmised (which was a good thought to consider, nonetheless) that her position had or has anything to do with low attendance at her previous events.
When you judge female pro wrestling by the standards that most guys have who are into FvF it gets grade F. I have the feeling that female pro is the "safe" option for guys that can't come to terms with why they like to see women fight each other.
One lady that seems to be able to cross back and forth well is Vanessa Harding. I've seen her do some real rules catfight vids that are quite good, even though her background is pro.
Seeing a Pro women's match as a kid was my very first experiance with womens wrestling ... and still like seeing the vintage tapes and photos of 50's and 60'd stuff. The current Pro women's stuff sucks except for the Japanese , when the nutty costumes aren't out of control. The Japanese women are light years beyond what I've seen the U.S. women doing.
The Pro stuff these days is all high flying summersaults and **** ...and not much in actually on-the-mat wrestling using holds like in the 'ole days'. With all the crap they wear ; knee pads, elbow pads, shingards, long pants, Herman Munster boots, etc. for all of 7 minutes of running around bouncing off of ropes and doing flips, it's no wonder why there is so little interest in womens pro stuff these days - at least from guys who find FF sexy - because there's nothing sexy about Pro womens wrestling right now.
The big problem with expectations from this woman is that she's made a point of labeling fans of topless or extreme FvsF (i.e. breast and crotch grabbing) as perverts and guys who should just "go to a strip club" if they want to see "topless women". It's quite clear that FvsF producers with this attitude are set in their ways and have no intention of ever addressing what the fans really want to see. In this day and age there's no reason fans have to put up with that and we can vote with our non-attendance so these wrestlers and so-called producers get the message and either stay the hell out of FvsF events that we plan to support or simply stick to the crap-ass style of fake staged pro shhhit that we will ignore anyway.
Any woman wrestler that chooses to look down their nose and label the audience of men that support and pay for their livelihood as "perverts" doesn't deserve to be rewarded with our interest, attendance or dollars. I'm glad to hear JackPin is involved in this convention but unless I see other significant wrestlers (primarily from producers who understand the topless and extreme FvsF market demand) like some of the CA Wildcat stars (even though they don't do FvsF anymore) or women from Chaos or Kontex, I won't really be confident that the wrestling at this convention is going to be worth the price of travel and attendance. The bottom line is that Hurricane Havana has to be one of the worst women wrestlers to spearhead the advertisement of this event. Her lack of comprehension or concern for what the FvsF audience actually wants to see is a slap in the face to fans and I hope the promoters make an extra effort to secure other talent that isn't associated with the streaming fountain of failure, disinterest and disappointment that seems to saturate every event associated with Hurricane Havana.
I have to agree with Sketch on Hurricane Havana...but as for not producing what the fans want to see, how would she know? With the exception of the VSL video (which she didn't produce) she's only done videos for crappy companies before starting on her own . Unfortunately she's not alone in that category. I must admit, her pandering for "sponsors" on the old CWWS turned me off more than the Frankenboobs.
BTW-Are there any good topless competitive/erotic wrestling videos being produced in the U.S. anymore?
Well...for one thing numerouse people made comments on message boards. Other producers (and by that I mean "successful" producers) tried to give her advice on event planning as well as tips on presentation...the only thing she did was snap back with a lot of smart-assed ignorant nonsense and, in a few cases, verbally attacked the producers who were trying to help her. Bottom line - this buck toothed bitch has already had a variety of chances to "Be all she can be" and no real FvsF fan needs to be in a situation where they're a customer paying money to a producer with no intention of delivering the desired content. CHHPPSOB SA
Paulzzy, HH didn't engage in pandering for "sponsors" back on Barb's boards. That's buullshiit. She never did that and never would. If she would have, Barb would have kicked her off. (She did kick SketchArtiste's fat ass off, but that was for different reasons). On Barb's boards, all she did was tell everyone her reasons why she disagreed (and what she thought of) those who weren't on the same page with here regarding the Fem-vs-Fem scene. She validly asked for customer support for her genre of wrestling, that's all. It wasn't based on lack of knowledge, being unawares of fan tastes, etc. It was just a matter of different sets of values and different judgements. Different strokes for different strokes, that's all, ya' get it ? Yeah, if one's convictions aren't on track and you wanna go into the business world with 'em, the business world will tell you soon enough if what you're doing is going anywhere, but forget about any pandering crap. As far as any good topless competitive/erotic fem wrestling videos being produced in the U.S. anymore, all I can say is yeah there are. Where the hell have you been ? The U.S. video producers are out there; I'm sure any damn good links page will have 'em. You want one ? ... fine. It's based in San Francisco (at least that's where they say their records of compliance are kept.) If this is where your interests lie, go here. (I like its wrestling events--which is plenty enough good and arousing for that--but not its pornography, which I don't wanna see because that part of it is not for me; but those are just my likes/dislikes. Like I said above, different strokes for different folks.) There are others; go find 'em. SketchArtiste, even though it's a given you (and possibly others) won't ever be goin' to any of her events (maybe even any where she's participating), you're way too obsessed with her. First you piss on yourself here by using her as a Big Negative of, and transition from, the WWC, and, recognizing how that conflicts with any info about FightingStyle, you then do what's decent and start a new thread. Yeah, that's good, but as though that weren't good enough, you then felt compelled to duplicate and shift your rant-and-rave to another board. (After one reply to it there, all I did was simply back-link anybody who wanted to know more over here.)You and others have decent reasons for your statements, but you, in particular--as further evidenced by your incessant shiitt-ass name-calling on her--are way too phucked up on personal issues with HH.
Hate to disagree with you Big Cat, but HH's comments over on Barb's board were substantially more than a casual disagreement over style. She was pointed, disparaging, and denegrating to the videos, people who watched them and anyone who made them. That is, as I said, where my problem lies. I don't mind her having an opinion or expressing it, but the rampant hypocrisy of her statements gives me pause. I thought at the time it resembled the bombast you get from pro wrestlers on TV, that everyone recognizes as a put on. If that was her aim, to perpetuate a character of some sort, she played it badly.
Don't really think it's fair to pick on her boob job, though. It's not like she did it herself. I've seen plenty of bad enhancements through the years, as I'm sure we all have. Look at it this way, she's got to live with that for the rest of her life. That's punishment enough, don't you think?
But the problem with her convention, or any live wrestling/fem-fight convention is that the only girls who can put on a decent show are the ones who do that sort of semi-pro style. Most of these girls are models primarily. And you have to give them props for the level of effort they put forth in the videos they do. But not many of them are going to be willing to risk bruises, a broken nose, or black eyes to compete at a lightly attended convention. Can you blame them?
Also, most of the videos we see have a fair amount of editing involved. The catfight-y stuff that fans see and enjoy on video will be deadly dull watching it live. Talk about suspension of disbelief! You are only going to get an energetic show from those who engage in that pro-style throw around stuff.
Panthera cracks me up. I live in San Francisco so I'm very familiar with the blistering ass leaking idotic psychosis of gays who adore straight guys and follow them around on message boards to comment on their every word. If I fart Panthera will be there to inhale, tell everyone how she thinks it tastes and what I might have had for lunch. I've never had a TrannyShack groupie before but I think I understand how some stippers feel when surrounded by limp dick pud pulling combovers that can only sit back and watch them in "...ahhh?" (sp intentional) as they perform on stage.
My comments on HH's boob job are due to her disparaging remarks about women who wrestle topless as well as the men who enjoy watching them. Most women who talk **** about topless wrestling do so because they're not comfortable with the way they look...and that FrankenBoobed BuckToothed Bleached Blonde Bitch steps to the head of the class in that arena. I've seen and filmed topless matches that were very entertaining and didn't involve any participant risking a "black eye" or "bruises". The type of breast squeezing crotch grabbing matchs I've seen don't require the combatants risking injury if it's done correctly. Keep in mind that these matches don't have to follow the Crystal Video "Fighting for Bail" format. If someone understands what the customer wants to see and works with the women to pull it off, they can produce a fantastic quality of FvsF that's not only entertaining but safe and sound...I've been there and done that so I KNOW it can happen.If you don't believe me look at DWW's wrestling and then tell me how many women on his roster have black eyes and missing teeth...?
APL have to be one of the worst culprits of this crap over the years and it is truly hilarious to watch this guy Pollman absolutely rubbish Ana Leal's usual formula of:
Customer dislikes APL Product > Ana Leal accuses customer of being corrupt & disingenous> Ana Leal threatens fake legal action > and repeat....
Jesus! This woman is like a broken friggin record! It's as if she has copied the same crap she did over at Barb's from 1998 onwards and pasted it onto Debbe's forum.
Have a read.... it's a good laugh. The internet equivalent of watching a sprightly young vicious Mongoose dance around a fat Cobra
Sketch l-ass, if I crack you up, it's because I laugh my guts off busting hitting the high notes when your gunny bag of psychoshiiiiit hits its mark like a dead man shooting spit. Now what are you sayin' ??? You give me your pseudo-deductive psuckosis psychology crap vis-a-vis SF's fruitcake homo's while transferring that to my message board behavior ??? ... Hell, you can't even deduce when a very red-blooded, completely heterosexual American male like me is posting. How the hell you think you can deduce anything else about me means you're certifiably insane. I'm sure as hell not addicted to you. I reply to you when I do because your points are so more often ass-backwards (with some exceptions) that somebody has to tell you to stop screwin' yourself. You think I'm a TrannyShack groupie ??? ... and you're glad you understand how some strippers feel when they're surrounded by limp dick pud pulling combolovers who love to get that jack-off sensation of satisfaction as their highlight for the night ??? ... Really ??? ... I know everytime I answer you you'll always prove no matter how many times you try, you always make like a poker player who wants to up the ante when all she has are joker cards. Sketch l-ass, if you think you want to correlate what the Sat. night strippers do here and derive entertainment from me because you think I can't leave your "spell," because you "think" you "know" how much I "enjoy" it, you're like a lapdog barfing in his own dish while asking the master-the one who knows better (me)--for more food. Even a dog knows when in the hell to stop eating, woman. Like I'm part of your groupie following ??? ... Yeah, r-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ght.
Sketch l-ass, thanks for making that crystalfor me.
(BTW--on the other board, I said that would be my last post. I meant it, so go ahead and deal your bankrupt hand. I promise I'll let you be the last one off stage.)
... Oh, yeah--you say you've been there and done that. Fine. Well, where's your product lately ??? ... Put your stuff where your mouth is, Sketch l-ass. What's wrong ??? ... Don't tell me it bombed.
Getting the right FvsF content is almost harder than finding a great bottle of wine. Of course any fool can find a decent bottle of wine for $50.00...but it takes a true connoisseur to find a great bottle of wine for $20 (either that or know someone at the Wine Merchant at Pier 1 in San Francisco ). It's easy to tell if FvsF content sucks AFTER you buy it...but real talent and taste is shown when you can spot crap from the way the still is framed. I've always been a proponent of not buying product from any producer that doesn't put clips on the net, unless they have enough stills or images to appropriately convey the match content. I'll explain in more detail with specific examples in a few upcoming reviews.
All that being said...I've been purchasing new FvsF content and noticed APL had some new product out that didn't look like it featured a bunch of fat-assed older women (...like a lot of her older videos used to). I checked out her search engine under breast and crotch attacks and came up with 4 or 5 selections that I'd planned to purchase. Thanks to your tip, I think I'll save my money and buy from a producer that isn't fake. There's nothing worse than faked FvsF or Pro-Style crap. Thanks for the warning Pollman! You should get an award or something... CHHPPSOB SA
Sorry to break this to you, but HH most certainly would and did look for sponsorship on the old CWWS message board. If you use "The Wayback Machine" at www.archive.org you'll find archived pages from the old site, including the message boards. Some threads you can open, some (like this one below) you cannot, but the message is pretty clear.
I remembered this because as you can see I posted to the board the next day. If I recall correctly she was headed to the NAGA tournament in N.J. and needed sponsors. If you think that I made this up, go th the above site and put "womansplace.net/cwws" in the wayback machine box. Pick the latest dated page, then click the box under "Watching". You should be able to find it from there. You should check your fact before you call "buull****t" on others. Also, I've been buying videos since the late 80's and just looking at any damn links page, as you suggest, will get you a lot of really badly produced crap. But then again, apparently you (and the 8 people who showed up at HH's event ) wouldn't know the difference.
An overwhelming majority of the fights which include breast- or crotch-grabbing are more or less fake. Don't tell me you haven't noticed this? In an unscripted fight without any explicit directions from the producers, women will not spontaneously grab their opponent's breasts or crotch.
In fact, the FightingStyle producers learned this lesson the embarrassing way when they introduced an impending fight (Isabella vs somebody) as an all-out catfight with face-sitting and breast-grabbing allowed, only to bear witness to no such thing, but rather a wrestling match no different from any other one of their fights. If you want vicious stuff, you need to instruct the fighters in advance, and this, of course, will inevitably result in a somewhat artificial fight.
The only exceptions I have seen are in a few of those sordid Russian productions, which are all shot in the same shabby and depressing run-down Moscow apartment and are available from several commercial sources (you'll know them when you see them). In those, the breast-grabbing seems spontaneous and real.
ADDED: And, by the way, scroll through the APL clip catalogue and you'll find pictures of women kneading their opponent's breasts with their feet. This is obviously aimed at foot fetishists and no one will ever persuade me that it's part of a genuine catfight. My disbelief can only take so much suspending.
Hmm...Tomas you may be missing my point. Most +48DD breasts in catfights aren't real either, but that doesn't mean Men don't enjoy watching them being squeezed and wrenched around in a catfight. I'm not one of those people that expects to see 2 women fight and maim each other. What I expect to see is a Cross between Crystal Video/Chaos/and older CA Wildcats where the wrestlers were involved in West styled tangled leg wrestling with breast twisting. I expect to see crotch grabbing and I expect the women doing it to "sell" it to me. When 2 women are actually fighting squeezing each others large massive ripe cantaloupe sized melons might not be "real" action...but I expect them to go at it like it's real and if you've ever seen any of Crystal's catfights from the Hellfire Club you would KNOW that this can be done.
The FvsF arena is littered with ex-producers who couldn't distinguish between making a real FvsF wrestling product and showing men what they wanted to see. I expect to see FvsF matches where the women are squeezing and twisting each others breasts and grabbing and squeezing each other crotches constantly throughout the match. The vendors that are supplying this kind of product are selling...the ones that aren't...? Now don't get me wrong - I can't stand fake shiiit like Double-Trouble or posed crap like APL but there's a happy medium between great FvsF content and complete fake. There are many examples of producers who've done the type of matches I like to see...I'd just like to see more.
So your problem with APL, and maybe with HH as well, is not so much that they don't do genuine competitive fights, but rather that their staged fights are poorly executed?
Those are two distinct lines of criticism. I, for one, follow the first line and only seek out videos of real competition, but I know the main problem for many people is finding competent enactments of fantasy fights.
In light of this, it is interesting that the APL representative on the other board decided to answer to the first line of criticism and claim that the company's fights are real, when maybe he ought to have answered to the second line of criticism and tried to convince us that, although they may be fake, they're nonetheless exciting to watch.
As for how one goes about to "sell" a breast-twisting, crotch-grabbing catfight, I will only say that what I've seen from the Hellfire Club series doesn't resemble the real action from the low-budget Russian series (sold through Chaos, VQMovies, AEBN, RealCatfights, etc.). "Selling" it seems to involve histrionics, while the real thing is much more matter-of-fact, in a cruel and dirty way that frankly leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Guys, I've got a little story for ya. I started buying womens' wrestling/catfighting videos about 20 years ago. Over that time I've amassed close to 400 vids, of all styles, from countless producers all over the world, and I saved (and hid) just about every one. Two years ago I bought a digital video recorder, and began the long, arduous process of converting them all to DVD. During the process I came to realize that many of the videos I purchased never went back into the VCR a second time, and weren't even worth converting. Some were so bad I never bothered watching until the end. Lets face- most WW/CF videos don't meet many of our expectations. Of course, many of these were bought before the days of the internet, when you plunked down your $50 and waited 3-4 weeks for delivery. Now, thanks to the internet/computers/cheapening technology, said producers, whom I consider to be fans with a passion for their work, have seemingly been pushed aside by the "talent". The problem here is you have girls who've been in barely half a dozen videos (and have never bought nor seen even one) now thinking they're producers. And I find that to be sort of arrogant/patronizing to guys like myself who take this stuff semi-seriously.
BTW-What I look for in a video is A)good looking, fit ,athletic women. B)realistic (if not 100% real) wrestling action-no rolling around, giggling, ass slappind, etc., and C) some sort of a conclusive ending (no ties-I've got a 15 year beef with the folks at VSL over this).
And no Pro-Style. The guys on WWF practice that stuff for years, and it still looks FAKE.
Huh? Whaadaya mean? One of my favourite 'real topless' matches was when Amy mopped the mat with the great, muscular 'pro' Hurricane Havana who spent most of the match pinned helplessly flailing away while Amy worked her over, barely breaking a sweat. That was an excellent example of pin wrestling....total domination but amusing to watch as Amy tried to prolong the match to fill more time - I suspect she could have pinned the Hurricane in about 20 seconds of wrestling if she really wanted to. The french real wrestling is good and the quality of the DVD downloads are the best I have ever seen - digital cameras keep upping the bar. Sharp with good contrast, decent camera work and no pixellation even on my 24' flat screen. Amazons productions.

the juwes are the men who will not be blamed for nothing...
I've had my eye on Amazons Production stuff since accidentally being linked to it . Until then I never heard of them and it looks to be exactly the style I like - except for the mixed. The French Wrestling series looks great , especially the second one with Xana vs Estelle. I saw the promo for this one but haven't ordered yet. Nice to see Nadege involved here as well.
If you get a minute how about a writing a review on a couple of your favorites from them ? [spoiler]
I have a couple older DVDs from Amazon Productions. If I recall correctly the wrestling was on par with DWW- real and fast paced, but the women weren't all that attractive. For Jim the Ripper and anyone else who enjoyed watching Amy wipe out Hurricane Havana on that VSL video, you should check out some of her many videos for Academy. Most of her matches are 45-60 min. of complete (and very hot) wrestling domination. She (Amy) also wrestled Xana of Amazon Productions on a video released through DWW.
She (Amy) also wrestled Xana of Amazon Productions on a video released through DWW.
No **** .... thanks for the tip. Wonder how hard thet would be to find on DWW ? I never could get the hang of their website and I don't recall them having a wrestler/video list.
I really like both of them and bet that was a great match. Amy was involved in one of the best matches EVER when she wrestled Nadege to a long, drawn out draw for one of VSL's last productions.
Another one I just saw I had seen before , but I kind of remember than name - Ann Hurricane I saw a number of clips and they seem like they put out some good FF stuff. Anyone seen anything from them ?
After entering the site, click on the "DWW Movies" button, then hit the "search" at the top and enter A-M-Y. It's not that hard. The video in question (Amy vs Xana) is actually an Anne Huricane production, available through DWW.
I already tried searching there under the wrestlers. I looked and found Xana's matches ( none with Amy ) so checked for AMY and she wasn't there. My next search was for a Xana vs Amy and it wouldn't do a serch for a name less than four letters ... would do a AmyO either, which is what she usually went by.
I'll try your search suggestion .... this wouldn't be the first time I've quit looking for something on DWW's site and instead went somewhere else - drives me nuts, LOL. You'd think it would have turned up under Xana's matches regardless .
Do any of you guys have trouble downloading from the DWW website? I stopped because most of my downloads from them either are abruptly cut off or half the screen is messed up. This does not happen with downloads from other companies. Could they (or I) be using an outdated WMP??? Also, just wondering, does anyone else here still buy DVDs??
I haven't bought anything other Chick Fight stuff in a couple of years and they were all on DVD. I 'blame' this on Barb's site closing down and my not knowing the latest stuff out there.
But I recently found Ann Hurricane and Amazon Productions and both sites woke me up, especially with Xana. I'm going to get the French Wrestling II from Amazon for sure but not sure about downloading or a DVD. What makes me hesitate about doiwnloads is hearing some complain about the 'size' sometimes being a bad surprise , and I don't know what they're talking about.
As far as the size thing goes, what should I look for it to be and is it always posted ?
Anyone familiar with Ann Hurricane's stuff ? You guys will rag on me about this , but I just can't tell :
There is a clip # AH 06 ' Ann in NY ' that has her wrestling a blonde in a motel. Anyone know for sure that IS a female she's wrestling ? It's labeled 'female wrestling' but something about the blonde wig and voice ... anyone familar with it ? Something real sexy about a female paying for a wrestling session with another female that makes me want to see it ... if it's really two women.
Jim, I suppose "size" could refer either to file size or video size, which are related. File size will be a problem if you have a very very small hard drive or a slow connection. If the file is small, on the other hand, then the video will probably be short or in low resolution. Some producers, not all, will clearly state the file size, the exact clip length, the resolution, and the file format on their site.
The resolution is probably the tricky one. DVD resolution is generally 720x576 at most. Downloads will vary. Most producers from which I've purchased within the last year (Modelfight, Fightingstyle, Eastcoastcats) offer clips in 640x480, which is more than enough for me. DWW offers them in 480x360, Catfight Haven in 320x240. The latter results in too little detail, at least for me.
As for the wrestler of indeterminate gender, one of the sample pics offers a pretty good view of his/her (clothed) crotch, and I'd say it's a woman, but I see your point.
