Welcome to another episodic installment in the saga to my Indy Diva profile of the very beautiful and talented female independent wrestler from the Gulf Coast,"THE SEXY SOUTHERN BELLE" known as DIXIE!
When I last left you while I wrote to you on my last blog,I mentioned to all you webheads that Dixie was wrestling for the Independent Wrestling Council (IWC) at Tillman's Corner in Theodore,AL from June of 2003 until they officially closed their doors for good on March 29th,2005.
I also mentioned to you that Dixie took a 6 month hiatus from the independent wrestling circuit.....
...which is where we'll pick up the story from here.
I went to an Alabama Wrestling Federation (AWF) show in Semmes,AL in September of 2005.
There was an evil female manager that was there who was managing local Gulf Coast indy wrestler "Marvelous" Marcel Pringle,the ofttimes wayward cousin to Percy Pringle III (a.k.a Paul Bearer,the former manager of WWE wrestling phenom,The Undertaker).
Her name is Queen Melissa.
There was a match that took place that night between Pringle and Gulf Coast wrestling legend "The Bullet" Bob Armstrong.
Armstrong won the match by disqualification due to Queen Melissa interfering in the match.
Both The Queen and Marcel began kicking and stomping upon "The Bullet".
All of a sudden,out of nowhere,unbeknowst to me and the crowd that were in attendance that night,there was a lady that came running towards the ring and speared Queen Melissa.
IT WAS NONE OTHER THAN DIXIE!
The crowd was on their feet screaming and hollering to the rafters of The Semmes Community Center when Dixie approached the ring.
Then,the mother of all catfights began as there was a lot of kicking and scratching and numerous rollovers where one lady was on top of the other.
Hair was being pulled by each of these feisty ladies and clothes were being ripped apart at the seams.
...AND YOU WONDER WHY I LOVE WOMEN'S WRESTLING SO MUCH!!!LOL!
Less than a month after The Queen's initial fracas with Dixie,she made an amicable split with "Marvelous" Marcel Pringle.
Queen Melissa was no longer a manager,she became a professional wrestler and she wanted to get revenge against Dixie.
Both of these ladies,
Dixie and Queen Melissa (staring at each other in the picture on the right) were about to get it on and set it off.
Like that former televison game show host Richard Dawson used to say:
"LET'S PLAY THE FEUD" !!!
The first time
when I saw these two wrestle against each other was in Dixie's hometown in Mobile,AL at the Mobile Fairgrounds in October of 2005.
It was not at an Alabama Wrestling Federation show,but it was a BRAND NEW Gulf coast wrestling organization that was started,founded and run by the afforementioned and distinguised Percy Pringle III and the name of his organization was called Gulf South Wrestling.
Both of these ladies were in a mixed tag team match where the guys wrestled against the guys and the ladies wrestled against the ladies.
Queen Melissa's mixed tag team partner was Canadian-born indy wrestler Aeon Flexx while Dixie's partner was her boyfriend,Ricky "Rokcet" Roberts.
Queen Melissa,who hadn't been in the business nor had been wrestling for very long,was a pretty good wrestler.
However,Queen Melissa was more like the type of wrestler that loved to use dirty,underhanded chicanery and foul play in doing WHATEVER it takes to win matches.
Dixie,on the other hand,used her skill and wrestling know-how to not only combat The Queen's dirty tactics,but also to win her matches over her unruly adversary.
On occasion,Dixie reached into her old bag of dirty tricks to fight fire with fire when it came to the likes of Queen Melissa.
Dixie and her man,"The Rocket" successfully won their mixed tag team that night at the inaugural GSW show.
During the next few months at GSW shows that were taking place in Grand Bay,AL and on occasion in Citronelle,AL,the Dixie/Queen Melissa feud continued to flourish as they were wrestling each other in mixed tag team matches as well as in single one-on-one ladies competition.
Despite her heelish,villainous ways and tried as she might,Queen Melissa just always seemed to come up short when it came to defeating Dixie as Dixie amassed a string of victories over "The Majesty of Mayhem".....
.....that was until when GSW had a show that took place in Grand Bay,AL in mid-February of 2006.
It was Dixie going at it once again one-on-one against Queen Melissa.
However,sitting at ringside on this particular evening was Dixie's most fiercest competitor when she wrestled her in Tillman's Corner in Theodore,AL at the defunct wrestling organization known as the Independent Wrestling Council (IWC).
It was none other than Dixie's notorious,nefarious arch nemesis,ZIP!
At first from the early going,
it was a normal,typical Queen Melissa/Dixie match-up.
Queen Melissa was cheating,using unruly,dirty tactics
to gain and take any and every advantage on Dixie while Dixie combatted her adversary with wrestling savvy and basic,tremendous wrestling skill and ability.
Near the end of the match,many times Queen Melissa kept leaving the ring going to the outside baiting Dixie to chase her around the ring.
The Queen did it once again and Dixie,who was in the ring at the time,motioned for her foe to step back into the ring.
The referee went outside and began arguing and telling Queen Melissa to get back into the ring.
While the referee and Dixie were both distracted,Zip immediately ran into the ring,hit Dixie from behind and performed Dixie's own finishing maneuver on her caled "The Rat Killer".
Zip soon ran out of the ring and out of the building like a thief in the night that robbed the First National Bank.
When the dirty deed was done,Queen Melissa ran back to the ring,covered an unconscious Dixie and hooked her leg as the referee counted down Dixie's shoulders for a very tawdry 1-2-3 victory.
Now,Dixie had not only ONE,but TWO low down,venomous,devilish women to deal with at Gulf South Wrestling:
QUEEN MELISSA and ZIP!
These three women would do battle one month later in a 3 way dance at a GSW show in Grand Bay,AL.
Whichever lady made any two of her other opponents to lose either by pinfall or to make them submit would win the match.
To say that Dixie had her back against the wall during this triple threat ladies encounter would be a very huge understatement.
NOTE:
THIS 3 WAY LADIES ENCOUNTER TOOK PLACE ON MARCH 24TH,WHICH IRONICALLY ENOUGH,HAPPENED ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!
MAN OH MAN,WHAT A VERY NICE BIRTHDAY GIFT I RECEIVED,HUH?LOL!
Seeing that it was obvious that Queen Melissa and
Zip weren't going to go at each other,the referee made the match to be more like a 2-on-1 handicap match where the two allies,Zip and Queen Melissa,had to tag in and out.
Now,the deck was stacked against Dixie more than ever before!
But,much
to the utter surprise of Zip and The Queen,Dixie overcame her insurmountable obstacle and incredibly held her own against her two bitter arch rivals,as seen in this picture to the right!
At first the terrible twosome,Zip and Queen Melissa,were getting along just fine;until when one of them tried to pin Dixie because whenever either The Queen or Zip tried to attempt to pin Dixie for the win,the other would run in and break up the count.
I can't even begin to tell you how infuriated both of these ladies were with each other when that particular situation happened.
Somehow,this scuttlebutt that The Queen and Zip were having with each other gave Dixie so much very valuable and needed time to recuperate herself and get herself together.
Dixie battled back and single handledly took care of both Zip and Queen Melissa!
Where or how in the world Dixie found the inner strength to battle back,I will NEVER,EVER know.
Nevertheless,to say to least,it was an amazing comeback on Dixie's behalf.
Dixie finished off both her opposing adversaries.
First,she finished off Queen Melissa by dropping her like a bad habit in one of her finishers,"The Rat Killer".
Then,Zip grabbed Dixie from behind and Irish Whipped her into the ropes.
Zip attempted to finish Dixie off in a sidewalk slam,but Dixie countered Zip's sidewalk slam and finished her off with another one of her finishing
maneuvers called "The Climax".
Dixie covered Zip and hooked her leg for the 1-2-3 victory!
SOMEHOW...SOMEWAY....an extremely tired and battered Dixie overcame insurmountable odds and persevered defeating two indy female wrestlers in one match in one night!
PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THIS,WEBHEADS:
THIS MATCH THAT OCCURRED AT GULF SOUTH WRESTLING IN GRAND BAY,ALABAMA ON MARCH 24TH,2006 TRULY DESERVES SOME VERY STRONG AND VERY SERIOUS CONSIDERATION TO NOT ONLY BE NOMINATED,BUT TO WIN IN THE CATEGORY FOR "Match Of The Year" AT THE 2006 INDY DIVAS AWARDS!
WITHOUT QUESTION,I,FOR ONE,ABSOLUTELY GIVE IT MY FULL RECOMMENDATION AND MY TOTAL,UNBIASED 100% ENDORSEMENT !!!
