Meet Gladys "Killem" Gillem, who wrestled not only women, but men, alligators and bears! And perhaps the most beautiful girl of the ring, Penny Banner, ( who even got the attenion of Elvis!) Then there's Ella Waldek, with a country background and experience as a roller derby doll, quoted as saying "Whatever the referee didn't see was legal!" Of course you couldn't have a documentary of women's wrestling without WWE wrestling legend Lillian Ellison... ah, that is The Fabulous Moolah!
You'll find classic ring footage from these legends and more, plus interviews and television spots as well. These are the pioneers who paved the way for what we now call "divas," but when this sport was at its finest, they were just called "girl wrestlers," and fans, that was enough!
