Female and male professional
wrestling in America is a multi billion Dollars industry-empire with annual
proceeds and profits that exceed all the revenues, earnings, proceeds,
income, royalties, wages and commissions of Julia Roberts, Opra Wimphrey,
David Letterman, Jay Leno, Johnny Carson, Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather, Robert Di
Nero, Al Paccino, Pavarotti, Cher, Madonna, Dixie Chicks, Michael Jackson,
Cameroon Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Magic Jackson, Kobe Bryant, Arnold
Schwarzenegger, Barbra Streisand combined together! Thanks to the genius of
one man: Vince MacMahon, the modern godfather of American professional
wrestling in general and to the gorgeous and outrageous American female
wrestlers, divas of the ring.

No one in
the history of entertainment and showbiz made more money than the stars
(males and females) of American wrestling. All the money Clark Gable, James
Cagney, Robert Taylor, Johnny Wayne, Elizabeth Taylor, Erol Flynn, Rita
Hayworth, Liberace, Elton John, Judy Garland, Maria Callas, Caruso, Al
Johnson, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley… all the money those superstars made
in their lifetime are a drop in the bucket when you compare it to the big
time “real” money professional wrestling generates annually in America. So,
don’t assume that professional women’s wrestling is a vanity fair or a
comedy. It is among the world’s biggest shows and most watched mass
entertainment production-display in 169 countries. Those ladies are the
divas of the ring. The divas of the biggest show on earth. They are the
sublime mistresses of showmanship; queens of the tragicomic sport
transvestia, perfect actresses of the human comedia, outrageous and
talkative announcers, ring announcers extraordinaire, mistresses of
ceremonies, leather, techno, hi fi, ultra modern half psychodellico-half
mind twisted futuristic moda human runways mannequins, priestesses of pain,
fantastic performers at an acrobatic and monumental esthetics…they glitter,
they attack with lightening force and speed, they are well built with a lot
of steel muscles and tanned sparkling flesh to show. In short, they are
real artists and world class performers, whether you like it or not.
