Feminist Wrestlers Are The Modern Day GLOW

SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft TV: MEET the allwomen wrestling movement and the woman behind it who overcame a breakdown and being sectioned to put on the biggest womens wrestling show in Europe. Once a month at the Resistance Gallery in Bethnal Green a rosta of approximately 12 female wrestlers step into the 16ft by 16ft wrestling ring to chokeslam, dropkick and maybe even moonsault one another; all in the name of entertainment and feminism. In a black vest, with a shock of neon pink hair, Emily Read gets the crowd going at an EVE pro wrestling evening: Are we ready to have a good time Are we ready for some wrestling Emily, 32, cofounded EVE in 2009 with her then partner, nowhusband, Dann, who she met on the promoting circuit. Wanting to give female wrestlers a platform to be the main event rather than the bikiniclad side attraction, Emily and Dann began EVE, an all womens Pro Wrestling Promotion with a grass roots punk vibe.
