Beautiful People...Ugly Behavior!
G.L.O.R.Y. Fan Ed Darcey found himself in Torrington, Connecticut, last Saturday night...camera in hand...taking in the WWW debut of TNA's Beautiful People. Today Ed gives us his report and pictures of the match.
Saturday night in Torrington, CT, the Northeast wrestling fans were treated to a match between two local New England women who have been rather successful in the last few years: WWW Women's Champion Alexxus, formerly known as Lexus (before the car company forced her to change her ring name; one would think a company of that size would have better ways to utilize their time and their shareholder's money than to threaten an independent woman wrestler with a lawsuit), and Amber, who has worked for numerous promotions on the east coast and is a young, though most capable, veteran. Their opponents were The Beautiful People of TNA fame...Angelina Love and Velvet Sky (a.k.a. G.L.O.R.Y. Girls Angel Williams and Talia). While lovely they might be, they were disdainful of their opponents, showing them little respect and even less for the fans.
After taunting both the crowd and their opponents, the TNA team went to work, using underhanded tactics on the smaller of the two New England women. Eventually, Alexxus was able to stun Velvet long enough to tag Amber, who was a match for the two TNA gals in size and came in with real purpose, sending both Angelina and Velvet to the mat from back elbows, monkey flips and arm drags. The Beautiful People regrouped however. When Alexxus was tossed out of the ring, Amber was left alone to be knocked senseless by a double teaming maneuver involving a back Russian Leg Sweep and a vicious kick to the jaw, allowing Velvet to make the easy cover. The Beautiful People, while impressive in their debut, won no fans with their attitude and tactics.
