The Forgotten Women’s World Champion: The Sandy Parker Story

( Note : I was scrolling through Facebook and the topic of this article was brought to my attention. I wanted to share the story of professional wrestling’s first black womens’ champion. )

We all have watched women such as Jacqueline , Jazz , Sasha Banks/Mercedes Monè, Bianca Belair , Naomi, Jade Cargill , Sonya Deville, Awesome Kong / and Alicia Fox/Vix Crow make history. However, have you heard of a wrestler named Sandy Parker ? If not , here is her story .

Sandy Parker was born on November 1, 1944 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Parker would be raised by her grandmother as her mother couldn’t raise her. Parker would describe herself as a ‘ Tomboy’ when during her childhood due to her love of fighting , tree climbing, and playing baseball. However , her love of fighting would lead her to the having a career in the wrestling business.

Parker became obsessed with professional wrestling when she was a teenager after attending one match . She kept going to the weekly shows , even going as far as Seattle, Washington, to attend shows before a friend of hers suggested that she start training to follow her dream of stepping into the squared circle . Thus , Parker took her friend’s advice and traveled four hours to Michigan to start training . While in Michigan, she trained under Lou Klein , Lucille Dupree , and Mary Jane Mull. In 1969 , at the age of 23, Sandy Parker would make her in ring debut . Therefore , Parker would find herself in South Carolina to train under veteran wrestler , The Fabulous Moolah. Parker would soon leave Moolah’s school due to having personal issues with Moolah about her double standards. Parker , who was Lesbian, stated in a 2008 interview that Moolah didn’t want her going to gay bars and was two-faced. Parker would train under another veteran wrestler , Mildred Burke, after leaving Moolah’s school.

During the early 70s , Parker would form a tag team with Sue Green. They would go on to defeat the team of Toni Rose and Donna Christanello for the NWA Women’s World Tag Team Championships in 1971. Thus, in 1972 , they would lose the championships to Rose and Christanello. Their title change would be unrecognized. Parker would be in a match against her rivals again, but , with Debbie Johnson as her partner . The two would be unsuccessful in their attempt to become the new tag team champions. This match would occur at the Super Bowl of Wrestling.

Parker would start a tour of Japan in the early 1970s where she would make history . Parker would become the first Black woman to become the WWWA World Single Champion in 1973, defeating Miyoko Hoshino. This championship was a part of the All Japan Women’s Wrestling promotion. She would also become an eight time WWWA World Tag Team champion. She would become the NWA United States Women’s Champion and World Tag Team Champion. When she returned from Japan in 1975, she would have a match against Jean Antoine in Oregon. This would be the first women’s wrestling match in 50 years. Parker would also have a cameo in the show , ‘ The Bionic Woman ’. Parker retired in 1986.

In 2022, Parker was hospitalized in Las Vegas , Nevada. She would lose all contact with her family and her friends. Parker’s friend and fellow wrestler , Susan Green , reached out on Facebook to try and find her. However , Greg Oliver , a wrestling reporter , would find out that she would pass away in June of 2022. Her passing would now be coming to light.

My Final Thoughts:

I don’t understand why Sandy’s death is now being brought to those who knew her personally and to the wrestling community. Knowing that she had to deal with a lot of racism and homophobia was just sad. I’m glad that wrestling has become for everyone . We see wrestlers such as Sonya Deville and Nyla Rose who are a part of the LGBT community killing it in the ring. We also see wrestlers such as Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks/Mercedes Monè who made history main eventing Night 1 of WrestleMania 37. I wanted to tell Sandy’s story because I feel like she was forgotten which breaks my heart . Please look her up and learn about her life and career!

I Love All Of You ,

- Kay

Ashley D’Amboise vs. Kenzie Paige {NWA World Women’s Television Championship Semifinal Match} • NWA Powerrr, 3/14/23

[allabouttenille]

There is a lot I could say about Billie Morgan, so this could take a while. Once upon a time, I was looking forward to facing her. She was one of the best in the indie scene. Including a very impressive NWA Women’s World title reign.

Early this year I actually got to face Billie.

But, it was in the middle of a one night tournament. Tournaments are tricky. One person will have had more time to recover, one person will have had an easier match, a lot of variables.

I wanted to remove those variables and wanted a rematch.

This despite the fact that I won the match and eliminated the pre tournament favourite on route to being crowned the very first ever Moonstone Champion.

It doesn’t matter now if Nora Adams holds that championship for a decade, my name will always come first.

But back to Billie.

I wanted a rematch and even went to multiple NWA shows to challenge the NWA title holder.

Only to be told that Billie doesn’t actually work these shows.

She’s too busy.

Too busy?

At the time, I was Moonstone Champion along with the TNA Digital Media Championship but I was able to find the time to represent the promotions I held titles in.

Despite what she claims now, that’s how committed Billie was to being a professional wrestler.

She was too busy to wrestle for the promotion she was champion of.

Foolishly, I believed that maybe Billie was too busy. It happens. As such, I offered to let her choose the time and place.

Then she signed with NXT.

I’m not going to criticize her for taking the best offer on the table, but I was starting to feel like she was avoiding me.

Like she knew it wasn’t a fluke that I beat her once, and knew I was going to beat her again.

If she’s signed to NXT, I can’t touch her.

Then we get the partnership between Billie’s home promotion of NXT and my home promotion of TNA.

But still radio silence from Billie. In fact, she doesn’t even mention TNA until after I leave the company.

Awfully convenient timing if you ask me.

It took a while, but finally Billie is once again taking outside bookings…

…and she has completely gone off the deep end.

This isn’t the same woman that dominated the indie scene and made me want to face her about this time last year.

This isn’t the same woman who stepped into the octagon and came out with her hand raised in victory.

This is a bitter and delusional shell of her former self.

It’s disappointing.

I finally get the match that I’ve been wanting for, and it’s not the same Billie Morgan.

It’s something considerably less.

Something broken.

So Billie, before our match, I want you to do me a favour.

I don’t care if you have to go looking through your childhood toys or whatever in search of a Godzilla action figure.

Whatever you need to do, do it.

I don’t want this delusional, sad, hating everyone, broken, wannabe tough girl act you’ve got going on these days.

I don’t want that.

I want a real challenge.

I want one of the best.

I want the Billie Goat.

WRESTLING’S MAIN EVENT: March 1990

THE DOWNFALL OF THE STEINER BROTHERS: She Is Woman, Hear Here Roar!

By JIM ARONSON 

PHOTOS BY JOE ZANOLLE and DEBRA MOSER 

Wrestling fans thought it was cute when an unattractive woman, named Robin Green, started appearing at the CNN Center Stage to root her favorite wrestler, Rick Steiner, onto victory each week. Slowly, Robin got more involved in Rick’s career and more involved in his personal life, too. Fans everywhere got a clue as to what Robin was all about when the ugly duckling turned into a beautiful woman on her first nighttime date with Rick Steiner. Then, she became his second and cost The Steiner Brothers the World Tag Team Championships, when she tripped Scott Steiner at “Clash Of the Champions VIII”. Finally, she showed her true colors when she had her henchmen, Doom and Kevin Sullivan beat Scott up in the backseat of her limousine. Now known simply as ‘Woman’, all she wants is everything the world can give her and nobody better get in her way! 

Man’s greatest weakness is Woman. Throughout history, Woman has always caused man’s downfall. Helen of Troy. Jessica Hahn. And now, two more men have fallen at the feet of a woman, named appropriately enough, Woman. Woman isn’t strong, nor is she persuasive. Woman’s power lies in her abilities to appeal to man’s prime instinct: his HEART.

Both the Steiners and Woman traveled long roads to get to this war of betrayal. Rick Steiner, an all-American in wrestling at Michigan, first made a name for himself in wrestling in the UWF, teaming with Sting and Eddie Gilbert. 

“Those guys have always been good to me,” says Rick. Rick was not only among good company in the UWF, but he found success there, too. A leading contender for the Rookie of the Year awards, Rick won the UWF Heavyweight Title, the organization disbanded, sending its wrestlers flying in numerous directions and other federations. 

Rick decided to stay with the UWF’s NWA ties, and joined forces with Kevin Sullivan and the Varsity Club. Along with Mike Rotunda, Rick Steiner continued to defend this belt until Sullivan, Rotunda and Steve Williams jumped him, and he quit the Varsity Club. “They were mean to me, and called me bad names,” said Steiner. 

On his own, Steiner soon rejoined Eddie Gilbert and won his first major singles title–the NWA Television Title. Although he didn’t hold the title long, Steiner did defend the belt well, and acted the role of Champion respectfully.

Scott Steiner, like his brother Rick, was an all-American in wrestling at Michigan. Scotty got his first break in the Memphis area, teaming with the likes of Jeff Jarrett and Jerry Lawler. 

While he had much success in the area, Scotty felt as though he needed a bigger challenge, and better competition. What better place to wrestle than in the NWA, he thought. In addition to the competition, wrestling in the NWA would give him the opportunity to team with his brother. “I never got to see Rick much, being down in Memphis. It was time to be reunited with my dog-faced gremlin!” Scotty recalls. As Scott arrived, he was there in time to help Rick wrap up the feud with the Varsity Club. Meanwhile, strange things were going on in the mind of a Woman. 

[Despite distractions from Woman, the Steiners recently won the NWA World Tag Team Titles.

Scott Steiner has improved by leaps and bounds since his debut in the NWA.]

Woman originally got involved in wrestling in the early ‘80’s. This was a time when everyone had a valet. Chris Adams had Nicola Roberts (Baby Doll), Jim Garvin had Precious and Kevin Sullivan had Fallen Angel (Woman). Fallen Angel, in the most pleasant terms, was a “nasty wench.” She didn’t just interfere, she aimed to injure Sullivan’s opponents. While other valets and women “managers” were having mud-wrestling matches against each other, she was using foreign objects, like screwdrivers, and going for the heart. Sullivan was her master; she did whatever he commanded. Sullivan spoke the words of the Devil, and she listened intently. Sullivan would launch his attacks on wrestlers like Dusty Rhodes, and she would do whatever she could to aid in the destruction. Then, as strangely as she appeared on the Florida wrestling scene to aid Sullivan, she was gone. 

Woman reappeared this year as a typical wrestling fan, named Robin Green. About her background, Woman says she’s never heard of Fallen Angel. Rick Steiner noticed “his biggest fan” at ringside one night, and asked her out on a date. Things went well, until Woman tired of wearing the horn-rimmed glasses and nerdy clothes. At the time of his date with her, Woman revealed the REAL her: low cut blouse, long hair, and seductive smile. Woman was born. 

Scott never really trusted Woman. The betrayal vegan to develop. The Steiners were wrestling the Freebirds for the World Tag Championship and the brothers were dominating Jim Garvin and Michael Hayes. Then, it happened. To this day, no one really understands how it happened. But, apparently, Scotty was coming off the ropes to elbow smash a weary Garvin, and he tripped–over nothing. Scotty immediately blamed Robin Green/Woman, Robin blamed Missy Hyatt, but nothing was proven, and the matter was dropped. But still, Scotty didn’t quite trust her. 

Then, the betrayal blew up–in Scott Steiners’s face. Scotty was waiting in a neighborhood playground for Rick to pick him up. Up pulled Robin, in a long, black stretch limousine. Admiring the vehicle, Scotty climbed in to get a closer look. The last thing Scotty remembers is that three men beat him senseless. 

When he woke up, Scotty STeiner was in a lot of pain, his face was bandaged, and his chest hurt. THe ultimate damage: two broken ribs, a broken nose, a black eye, and several bruises. Rovin Green claimed that she no longer existed under that name:she was now called simply “Woman.” Woman hadn't just broke Rick Steiner’s heart, she had injured his flesh and blood. The Steiners vowed to destroy her. 

[The Steiners wrestle scientifically rough, using amateur moves and pro wrestling holds.]

Woman claimed she turned against the Steiners to teach them a valuable lesson: not to trust a Woman. She quickly brought in Kevin Sullivan and his Doom squad, to fight the Steiners at the NWA “Halloween Havoc ‘89”. Apparently, these were the same three men who pummeled Scotty. But come the big event things would not go as planned for the Steiners. Although they dominated most of the match, it was difficult wrestling men they didn’t know. Who were these guys under masks? Ultimately when the Steiners thought they had a victory in their grasp, Woman placed a small foreign object in the mask of one of the Doom. A slight headbutt to Rick, and the match was history. A win for Doom–and another win for Woman. 

After the match, Woman betrayed yet another man–Sullivan, when she fired him. Apparently, Women used Sullivan like she has used every man, to her own satisfaction and needs. Woman can’t be trusted: she will use anybody, especially males, to get whatever she needs them for. She is only out for one thing: herself. She is a feminist gone radically abnormal. A dangerous untrustworthy lady, Woman won’t stop until she has total domination over all the men in the NWA. The young girl who was a slave to Kevin Sullivan in Florida is gone: she has been replaced by a woman who is nothing more than a USER. Just as Kevin Sullivan or either of the Steiner Brothers. 

[In matches with Doom, The Steiners will have to keep one eye on Woman at all times.]

NWA World Women's Tag Team Champions The Renegade Twins

[wrestlingisfake]

I was re-reading an old post of yours about RIc Flair, and I was wondering: what do you think makes it a proper world title? Is it just being the most important belt any promotion has (so, teeny-tiny ones can just say they have the world champion) or is there some measure of size or prestige (if such a thing exists in a fake sport) that a belt has to have before you can say you are an x-time world champion?

I've thought about this over the years, but I don't think a "proper" definition of a world title is possible in pro wrestling. Usage of the term within the business has become totally divorced from the literal meaning of the words.

Semantically, it'd be fair to say a "world title" is any championship with "world" in the name. Realistically, we might limit that to the promotions with a worldwide audience. But by this standard, ROH world six-man tag team champion Austin Gunn has a world title, and undisputed WWE universal champion Roman Reigns does not. And we instinctively know that's not right.

In the context that the term is used, a "world title" is clearly a promotion's main event championship, with the implicit assumption that only a men's world heavyweight singles title could be that top prize. So if we're talking about a 7-time world champion, we might mean Harley Race, but probably not Danny Hodge.

In the old says, the aura of a (men's) world (heavyweight singles) champion was that of a man who could carry the entire company, and defend himself in the event of a double-cross. The mentality was that the world champ had to be the legit toughest guy in an otherwise fake sport, because if he wasn't, someone might take a payoff to go off-script and break his leg. That all kind of faded away 40-50 years ago, but the perception that you have to be on a higher level to win a world title persists. So there's a sense that you have to be the top champion in a promotion big enough for it to mean something that you're on top.

Since anybody can call any championship a world title, there's no obvious place to draw the line as to which of them really matter. It seems to me, though, that a promotion has to have (or once had) nationwide exposure for its world title to be taken seriously. That sounds contradictory, to say that being a national-level promotion makes your top title a "world" title. But going by that definition we can count the top belts in WWE, AEW, WCW, the NWA, the AWA, New Japan, All Japan, Pro Wrestling NOAH, CMLL, the UWA, and AAA, which sounds about right. Of course, this would also include TNA, ECW, and ROH, which would be controversial, but any definition would put somebody on the bubble.

Going forward, I expect the top women's titles in those companies will be treated more and more like "world titles," not just in name but in terms of that tippy-toppy aura. And sooner or later I figure GCW and at least one British promotion to have the credibility to join the club. So even if we could settle on an objectively useful definition, it'll probably need to change within the next 10-20 years.

My Wrestling What Could Have Beens/What Ifs?: If Tragedy Didn’t Strike

Hey everyone! I was inspired by one of my followers in the IWC on the X ( Twitter App) for this article . This article will be about what I think would have happened if tragedy didn’t happen to the wrestlers mentioned.

1. What If Magnum TA was never involved in the car accident that nearly killed him and caused him to retire ? To me , I think that he would have went on to win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship and had a lengthy reign with it . I also think that he would’ve made it to the WWF and would’ve been successful there.

2. What If Owen Hart never passed away in the fall he took or did the fatal stunt at the WWF Over The Edge Pay Per View in 1999? To me , I think that he would have been as successful as his older brother , Bret. I also think that he would have been a World Champion in the company as well.

3. What If The Von Erich brothers never took their lives or died of an illness. Who would have been the bigger star out of the family? To me , I think that David would have been the biggest star in the NWA after defeating Ric Flair, who was one of the biggest stars in the promotion in 1984. He would’ve had a successful run with the World Heavyweight Championship. As for Kerry, I think that he would have been a multiple time WWF Champion if he never was involved in the motorcycle accident that cost him part of his foot. I also think that he would’ve brought David with him to the WWF.

4. What If The Outsiders never left WWF to go to WCW? In my opinion, Kevin Nash would’ve had to be repackaged in order to adapt to the environment of the Attitude Era. Thus, I also think that Scott Hall probably would have been very successful during it. He probably would’ve been WWF champion. I also think that they would’ve been members of DX.

5. What If The Divas’ Revolution Never Happened? - We all know the WWE Women’s Division as it is today? We’ve seen Becky Lynch , Charlotte Flair , and Ronda Rousey main event Wrestlemania 35 , and we have matches such as the Women’s Royal Rumble and War Games matches. If the Divas’ Revolution never happened , would we have this? The answer is no. I think that we would see them still have 2 minute matches and bikini contests. They would still be treated as they were before.

My Final Thoughts:

These are things that I think about a lot. Watching Dark Side of The Ring also made me think about them too. Also about The Outsiders, if you listen to X-PAC’s promo when he joined DX , he mentions them saying that they would’ve came back to WWE with him if it wasn’t for Hogan. I’ve never done anything like this before and I may have to do it again. What are some of your wrestling ‘ What Could’ve Beens/What Ifs ? ’ I would love to hear them! Just let me know in the comments!

Love You All,

- Kay

April 12th 2024

Following their recent heated exchange of words at OVW in relation to Billie Morgan, it was of no surprise that Mickie James came out swinging in her unexpected opportunity at the TNA Digital Media Championship. James was able to connect early with the Mick Kick but when she attempted the DDT, Dashwood quickly escaped before disaster struck in her home country.

From then on, the pace slowed and Dashwood finally managed some offense. Before long, Dashwood went to work on the right arm of James, at one point even wrapping it around the ring post and turnbuckle to try and do some lasting damage. James managed to avoid the worst of the intentions and fired back with another Mick Kick, showing how quickly she can end the match.

Luckily for Dashwood, she was close enough to the ropes to get a rope break before James could secure the victory. Following a shoulder breaker from the Australian, the game plan became obvious and James knew it. As such, she was able to avoid the Venus de Milo, but was caught completely by surprise when Dashwood kept her word of sending a message. Having missed another attempted Mick Kick, James was off balance and an easy target for Dashwood to connect with Billie Morgan’s Oxygen Destroyer to pick up the three count.

Prior to the match, Dashwood promised to send a message to the NWA World’s Women’s Champion. It may not have been the message people were expecting, but it was still loud and clear. Dashwood is not going to forget what Morgan did to her prior to signing with NXT and being out of reach for the Australian.

Murakami tried for the STO on Ueno, but Ueno countered with the WR. Toi Kojima connected with a meteora and MAO followed up with a springboard 450 splash. Ueno made the cover to win the tournament final. Winners of Trios Kingdom 2023: The 37KAMIINA

- In a surprise, Konosuke Takeshita appeared after the match. Takeshita and The 37KAMIINA have had their differences lately in DDT, but Takeshita looked quite proud as he congratulated them on their Trios Kingdom victory. The four shook hands and posed for pictures as MAO, Ueno, and Kojima were presented with their trophies. This nice scene was interrupted by Titus Alexander. From ringside Alexander got on the microphone and proceeded to unleash a verbal attack on Takeshita, furious that Konosuke would choose this as his reason to return to CORE after not answering a single one of Titus’ phone calls or texts since The Co-Op in April when they teamed together to defeat, coincidentally enough, three other teams including MAO and Yuki Ueno. Titus Alexander called Kaito Ishida and Flamita of Black Generation International out to ringside and told them that he's in.
