UWWX: The Underground Women's Wrestling Xperiment (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

For far too long, wrestling promoters have treated women's professional wrestling like little more than a glorified burlesque sideshow featuring beautiful women dressed in outrageous and provocative outfits while reciting horribly lowbrow comedy skits and engaging in simulated catfights with one another. Such is exactly how Ladies' Wrestling League veteran "Chainsaw" Charlie Bradshaw feels, leastways, especially when approached to become a part of yet another novelty women's wrestling organization called WrestleKittens. Needless to say, once she hears about an opposing and equally newly formed women's wrestling promotionthe ragtag, gritty, and aptly named Underground Women's Wrestling Xperimentshe jumps ship the first chance she gets. However, even with this new federation's promise to reinvent women's pro wrestling and hence bring some respect back to the sport as a whole, Charlie still finds herself up against many a challenge, such as coexisting with certain rivals on the UWWX roster and learning to cope with the unorthodox management and on-the-fly booking style of the promotion's founder, Katherine Flynn. Nonetheless, it is up to Charlie to rise up to the occasion and become the locker room leader that her newfound home needs to help spur it to the top of a crippled industry and win the hearts of an increasingly jaded mainstream wrestling audience. Only time will tell, then, if she is indeed up to such a task or if the UWWX will remain nothing more than a pipedream for everyone who has become sick and tired of a venue with little more to offer than cheesy costumes, tacky humor, and flagrant chauvinism.

Autorenporträt

I'm a former English teacher from northeastern Illinois who FINALLY jumped ship with the whole e-book publishing scene in March 2012. Fiction is my specialty (although I return to my roots as a poet every now and then as well), and my interests are diverse. I aim not only to entertain my readers, but also to inspire them from time to time through my writing. Feel free to check my work here on Smashwords.com to find out for yourself.
