Leave Me Lying Here

Grit & Glitter

For its 20th anniversary, Harley and Don revisit IWA Mid-South's Volcano Girls, a landmark show in the history of American women's wrestling.

On May 30, 2004 Dave Prazak booked Becky Bayless, Traci Brooks, Lexie Fyfe, Daizee Haze, Mickie Knuckles, Lacey, Mercedes Martinez, MsChif, Rain, and Sumie Sakai in a one-night tournament to crown the first IWA Mid-South Women's Champion. The show would prove to be such a success that it led to the creation of an entire promotion: Shimmer Women Athletes.
