Anyone else into this company? I never watched them way back when they were first around as I was just a little kid, but I've really been getting into them lately. Also, they are the only company I know of outside of WWE that around in the 1980s and actually has a pretty extensive YouTube channel. For those interested their YouTube channel can be found here: www.youtube.com/user/lpwainc?feature=watchLikewise for those interested I have done write-ups of most of the matches featured on that channel which can be found here: johnsontranscript.com/tag/lpwa/ and a review of the channel itself here: johnsontranscript.com/2013/08/30/30-in-30-lpwas-channel/It is a pretty cool promotion because outside of just the incredible 1980s/early 1990s atmosphere, Jim Cornette does commentary for a lot of matches. For the matches that don't feature Cornette others pop up like Sgt. Slaughter. Also, there are a decent number of women who later had bigger careers featured in the promotion include Madusa and the Attitude Era's Ivory and Tori when they were both pretty young. |

I remember this...it was on late night on MSG, and my friend used to claim there was nudity on it.

Yes. Seriously. Something called Alley Cats. MEOW! So they adveristed those in wrestling magazines or a different type of magazine hehe? As for them as performers, Linda Dallas could be sloppy, but was pretty small and fast, which added to her matches. I can't recall seeing Misty Blue Simmes in the LPWA though and can't check the YouTube page at the moment. |

Super Ladies Showdown was a good show of theirs, some very good matches. They had some good female talent, my favorite was Jan Flame, decent in ring, big red hair and tattoos, such an awesome look!

Yes. Seriously. Something called Alley Cats. I should note that from what I can tell by the 25th gen copy Mark sent me, they're only in the nude boxing match at the beginning. That said, there've been rumors for years that they did more that just haven't really surfaced. |

I remember in the magazines that they would only talk about Misty Blue Simmes and Linda Dallas That was mostly mid-80s, Apter had a thing for those two (and Kat Leroux to a lesser extent). When LPWA was big (well, as big as it would get) he was really pushing their champ Susan Sexton as well as an ODB prototype named Reggie Bennett. |

They ARE in scenes, albeit in seperate ones...with guys...doing stuff. |

And Susan Sexton was all over Inside Wrestling. Whenever I was able to get more than just PWI, I would go for Inside. |

On another note I just did another write-up of an LPWA clip this time featuring Malia Hosaka. The match I watched was pretty short, but Hosaka in general is worth checking out. |
