MC: Brett.
Referee: Richard.
An expectant audience anticipated an exciting mixture of both Pro-Style and Mat Based
Women’s Wrestling. How we were rewarded with superb displays of talent…..
Mat Based Match: 10 minute duration.
April Davids vs Stacey K:
April was the first out of the backstage locker room and is fast emerging as a firm crowd
favourite since appearing consistently in the last few events here in Manchester.
Her opponent, Stacey K.
The 2 girls, although slight in their respective frames, showed incredible strength and
determination right from the opening bell.
Stacey commenced applying very strong looking leg holds. These, in turn, were counteracted
by April in her traditional blue swimsuit.
This intense affair soon developed into a battle of wills with a major focus on leg-locks
and holds.
An initial pin was soon equaled with a submission with 4 minutes remaining. At 1 fall each,
the upper-hand was gained by a 2nd submission with 2 minutes left. The girl with the 2-1
advantage cleverly chose to take stock of her lead and seemed determined to hold out for the
victory, showing strength and resistance when under extreme pressure from her opponent in the
final minute. A 2-1 result brought this great opener to a conclusion.
Pro. Style Match: 15 minute duration.
Lisa Fury v Jenny Sjodin:
Lisa, made a welcome return to the show; her first appearance since ” Sudden Impact”.
Jenny, another audience favourite from Scandinavia, firmly established herself in this
match as a no-nonsense, determined worker against the more flamboyant Liverpool lass, Lisa.
The 2 ladies were evenly matched….Jenny applied a strong neck hold, cleverly reversed by Lisa.
Jenny gained a 1 count from an arm-bar followed by a 2 count – firmly kicked out by Lisa.
Lisa employed clever counter techniques as she sought to gain control on her overseas adversary.
A spectacular roll-up was followed by a 2 count. Lisa threw a couple of body-slams into the mix
as well as a camel-clutch.
The bout was decided by a successful roll-up and pin, gaining a narrow and close fought
victory….
Mat Based Match: 12 minute duration.
Sue Scarlet v Venus:
Next up, Sue Scarlet, greatly experienced in mat style contests having graced this arena on many
occasions in the past.
Venus, a very popular lady since making her debut at this show last July at “Thunderdome”.
A severe test of strength and endurance was a prominent factor with this bout.
The slight difference in styles with Sue concentrating on leg and thigh work to weaken her opponent,
whereas Venus used her upper body strength and “assets” to put Sue under immense pressure.
A fantastic and very sporting match finished with a 2-1 victory.
Pro. Style Tag Match: 15 minute duration.
April Davids & Janey B v Pippa L’Vinn & Shelby Beach:
April and Janey – the “charismatic tandem” entered first.
Their opponents none other than lethal Pippa L’Vinn, accompanied by the blonde bombshell -
Shelby Beach, the “incomparable tandem”.
The first impression one would have of this match up would be a total domination of the
latter more experienced duo…. this was not the case at all as the tenacious pairing of
April and Janey were well up for this battle!
Immediately, Pippa was caught off guard still discussing “match-winning” tactics with her
partner when Janey leapt across the ring with a threatening hold.
Pippa then appreciated that this was not going to be a stroll in the park and that her
and Shelby would have to use every ounce of their substantial strength to gain a victory.
Shelby soon entered the affray, body slamming her smaller opponent to the canvas. April
attempted to overpower the Wigan girl by applying legs holds and leg locks.
A furious pace ensued with the initial terrier like style of April and Janey slowly
but surely tempered by the more experienced twosome.
This highly entertaining match was heightened by Pippa’s clever tactics and banter
with the crowd.
A resultant single pin decided this superb match.
INTERVAL
After the 20 minute Interval the pace re commenced with…..
Pro. Style Match: 15 minute duration.
Jenny Sjodin v Pippa L’Vinn:
This proved to be a fascinating encounter and, I believe, maybe the first time these 2
great pro’s have met in the ring. Pippa, certainly the favourite wrestler EVER of this
humble reporter, looked focused and confident as she climbed through the ropes in this pro-style match.
Jenny knew that she would have her work cut out to get a result against such a formidable opponent in Pippa.
Undeterred, she gained an early 2 count before Ms L’Vinn cleverly kicked out. Pippa’s full range of
skills were were displayed for all to see, appearing to relish a match with such a dedicated and strong
willed grappler as Jenny. Her many moves and holds were very much appreciated by a captivated audience.
A keen, close fought match was concluded by a submission near to the 15 minute time limit.
Mat Based Match: 10 minute duration.
Sue Scarlet v Kandi:
Sue returned for her second appearance of the day in her traditional “scarlet” one piece outfit.
Facing her, show debutant and newcomer to the Wrestling Factory : Kandi.
This sporting match opened up with Sue threatening to take ownership. Kandi, however, was having
none of it and was full of promise and enthusiasm.
Sue, again relying on her leg applications to weaken her combatant gained a first fall.
Kandi, undeterred, fought back well and seemed to gain in confidence rather than the reverse,
as the match continued.
A very enjoyable and high scoring bout was secured by a pin and facesit to gain a 4-2 fall victory.
We look forward to seeing Kandi back at future shows as Pippa speaks very highly of her.
Handicapped Mat Based Match: 12 minute duration.
Shelby Beach v Layla & Venus:
Shelby certainly faced a test this time around…bravely agreeing to take on 2 opponents on a tag
team basis.
Initially, Layla locked up with the blonde with the glamourous Venus just aching to get in on the
action, outside of the ropes.
After clever manoeuvres by Layla, Shelby – urged on by the crowd – fought tremendously hard, bearing
in mind she would have to face a fresh Venus at any time.
Layla switched with Venus and this unique match soon started to form a pattern with 3 falls being
executed. Then as the MC exclaimed “carnage ensued” as both Layla and Venus decided to take things
into their own hands (literally) and both wrestled with Shelby at the same time….the 2 v 1 scenario
continued as the referee soon lost control of the proceedings and it ended up as a “Demolition Derby”
….fun and exciting !
Pro. Style Match: 15 minute duration.
Janey B v Lisa Fury:
The penultimate contest featured Janey B against the more experienced pro. Lisa Fury.
Janey showed superb athleticism, both in offensive and counter moves; mixing it up with armlocks
and leg scissor holds.
Lisa though is no rookie, far from it; applying a 2 count followed up by a painful looking camel-clutch.
Janey continued to impress with her resistance and achieved a series of 2 counts, which Lisa did well
to kick out from.
This match rocked back and forth, no-one able to confidently predict a winner.
However, with 5Â minutes remaining a successful pin decided this superb and fast paced match.
Pro-Style Battle Royal : 15 minute duration:
Pippa L’Vinn.
Shelby Beach.
Jenny Sjodin.
Lisa Fury.
Janey B
The final match of this wonderful show was a 5 lady Battle Royal…no pins or submissions; the sole
remaining lady in the ring after the other 4 girls were thrown out either over or between the ropes.
Allies and enemies were formed and quickly dispersed as it was every girl for herself.
A frantic pace was maintained throughout, some girls seemingly forgetting that pins and submissions
were to no avail and only physically removing an opponent from the ring would suffice.
Who would emerge as the ultimate winner in this free for all display of pro style wrestling ?
Summary:
Yet another fantastic show with everything one could ask for – intense Mat Based action complemented
by fast paced pro style excitement.
A wonderful effort by all of the ladies who performed today with a perfect balance of experienced
performers along with exciting debuts.
The privileged audience were treated to wrestling of the highest quality with beautiful girls
in glamorous costumes. Pippa’s shows NEVER fail to impress and “Day of The Diva’s” was right up there
along with the best of all of her previous events.
A Special Thank You to Pippa and all of her team who work so hard to bring us such entertainment….
Brett, Richard, Andrew, Dave, Chris, Harold, Megan, Tim.

PIPPA L’VINN vs LUCY CLAYDEN
“Equal Justice”
Two of Britain’s finest technical grapplers…the cunning veteran L’Vinn and the rising star Clayden…clash!
From the very start, the two women forcefully lock up, and to Pippa’s chagrin, she’s driven back to the ropes by the youngster…and that’s just the start of the brunette’s troubles! With equal parts skill and intensity, Lucy bears down hard on her opponent, knowing that she can’t give the wily L’Vinn the slightest opportunity to seize the upper hand.
Of course, Pippa does roar back and take control of the match, but not for long as command of the battle swings back and forth between the pair, their struggle intensifying with every passing minute. Not surprisingly, L’Vinn resorts to dirty tactics like choking and biting, but Clayden ably demonstrates that, grappling background aside, she must have had a few backalley dust ups as well, because she gives as good as she gets. Indeed, there are times when this wrestling match threatens to descend into a pub brawl between these two willful women!
Ultimately, one beauty finds herself trapped in the ropes, and she is mercilessly worked over with punches, kicks, slaps and choking. Is this her finish, or does she survive to rally and seize the day?

Jennidee vs Skye
“ENGLISH CHALLENGE MATCH”
The PGWA returns to the UK for another great GrudgeMatch between two battling British beauties!
Jennidee gives up several inches in height to Skye, but the Liverpudlian doesn’t let that intimidate her in the least. Indeed, in the opening moments of the match, she out-muscles her opponent and sends her down on her bum a few times! But Skye quickly wises up, and she opts to neutralize Jennidee’s tremendous strength with some yelp-inducing arm holds.
Finally making her escape, Jennidee promptly starts mauling her opponent’s arms… and legs… as well, but it isn’t long before Skye is dishing out the punishment again. These two have been ring rivals for too long, and they know the other’s many tricks too well, for this to be anything less than a near-stalemate as the minutes tick by.
In the end, however, one battler cannily focuses on her adversary’s weak spot, ultimately locking on a hold that has the poor girl frantically tapping her surrender. Which Brit claims victory in this one? Add it to your collection today and find out!
