About this user

New Orleans Ladies Arm Wrestling* hosts raucous performance-based competitions that empower women and provide monetary support for women-focused projects.

The New Orleans Ladies' Arm Wrestlers (NO LAW) are fired up ladies who toe the line between pro wrestling antics, theatrics, and strength-based competitive sport. Eight women wrestlers, each with their own character theme and wrestling moniker compete in each competition. They have a persona, name, costume, bio, theme song, and money-hungry entourage to back them up and collect "bets" from the crowd. All proceeds raised from bets go to a chosen local organization or project that benefits women and girls. At each event, wrestlers compete tournament-style. In the preliminary round there are eight wrestlers competing in four matches. The four winners then move on to the semi-final round. In this round each pair of wrestlers competes in three bouts (right arm, left arm, right arm). The two winners proceed to the final round which is decided again by the best out of three bouts; the winner receives a trophy created by the beneficiary, in addition to eternal glory. Rules are determined and managed by the referee, and manipulated and corrupted by celebrity judges, crowd hecklers, and muscle lovin' bet-hedgers.

*As a collective we resist and reject sexism, ageism, homophobia, transphobia, classism and racism.
