More on new “Wrestlicious” promotion

To follow up on our earlier report about the Jimmy Hart promoted “Wrestlicious” all-female promotion, PWInsider is reporting that the promotion is headed up by Johnny Cafarella who was a ring announcer for the original GLOW promotion and also worked on the WOW promotion a few years ago as well. The footage shown in the YouTube promo was taped back in August 2008 at a production facility in St. Petersberg, FL.

The talent that worked on the show were told to not publicly disclose the taping and were asked to not even post pictures online. Around four to five hours of shows were taped with all the female talent with different roles. Reports from the tapings were that the wrestling was good, but that the characters were designed to be very silly. Talent that worked the taping included Daffney (who has signed with TNA since then), Amber O’Neal, Lizzie Valentine, Christie Ricci, Becky Bayless, Lacey Von Erich, Daizee Haze, Portia Perez, Lexie Fyfe, Serena Deeb, Danya and others.

Former WWE Diva Search contestant Leyla Milani was not present at the tapings despite her being included in the promo for the show. Many of the women who worked the taping were contacted in the last week and told they would be brought in to film new footage soon. The hope is the promotion will sign some kind of a syndicated deal for a longer series.
