Indygurlz: The Main Event
G.L.O.R.Y. fan Ed Darcey brings us even more Indygurlz action today. This time, he shows us and tells us about Saturday's main event featuring soon-to-retire G.L.O.R.Y. Girl Cindy Rogers. Plus a little personal note from Ed to Cindy...
The main event of Saturday's show was a battle for the Indygurlz Championship between two of the mainstays of East Coast wrestling: Champion Mercedes Martinez and The Definition of Technician Cindy Rogers.
Ms. Rogers is in the midst of a farewell tour as she is retiring from active competition. Unfortunately for women's wrestling fans, injuries from both her in ring work and her other sporting endeavors have forced Cindy to call it quits. She will be sorely missed, as whether she was a heel or a face she was always a pleasure to watch and always gave her all in the ring.
As one would anticipate, since the combatants know each other so well, it was a spirited match. Cindy managed to tie up Mercedes in various holds, attesting to the validity of her moniker the definition of technician, while Martinez, looking leaner than usual, went with quick hitting moves and strikes. Ms. Rogers was able to twice avoid Mercedes finisher, the fisherman buster, but was eventually caught by Martinez, draped over the top rope and then spun over and driven neck, shoulders and head first onto the mat, stunning Cindy and allowing the champ to get the win.
An excellent match that was a reminder of what we will miss with the retirement of Ms. Rogers.
Good luck, Cindy. It's been a treat watching you work. Ed
