The Wrestling Clothesline is proud to present The Fourth Annual Wrestling Clothesline Top 50 Independent Women Wrestlers.
In 2003, The Wrestling Clothesline, being an avid supporter of independent women wrestling, decided to take the idea of ranking wrestlers in a slightly different direction.
Since Vince McMahon won't take women wrestling seriously and TNA won't even give it a second thought, someone has to give credit to those women who are working week in and week out, in those high school gyms and broken down Elk's Lodges, for barely enough money to pay for gas and tolls.
Hell, everyone does a Top (insert number here) for the guys in wrestling. So, here at WrestlingClothesline.com, we feel the need to give all those women out there on the indy scene the recognition they deserve.
The 2003 Wrestling Clothesline Top 50 Independent Women Wrestlers was such a unique concept that Bill Apter's Total Wrestling Magazine featured the list (both on the cover and with a multiple page spread!!)
Due to the overwhelming success of the 2003 Top 50, we decided to continue it in 2004 and in 2005 . Now, in 2006, the time has come once again.
When making our final decisions we used the following guidelines:
The list is a reflection of who we feel are the 50 best women wrestlers on the indy scene at the present time.
The list is reflective, but not limited too, a wrestlers previous 12 month body of work.
The women in the list should be active WRESTLERS and should wrestle on a regular basis. Women who primarily manage or valet will not be included. Women who were under a contract of any kind with the WWE/OVW/etc. are not included.
Wrestlers who are booked and seem to work more frequently than others will get higher rankings than those who do not work as often.
Wrestlers we have seen work will get a higher rank than those who we have not seen.
Injuries will be factored into the decision making process. Poor booking will not.
The final rankings are just our opinions and are being done to help generate discussion and bring attention to women's wrestling.
The complete list is now posted at http://www.wrestlingclothesline.com/Top50Women2006.htm
Check it out and feel free to send your comments to me or post them right here!

Everyone is entitled to their opinions. As it clearly states in the Top 50:

1. Proper English would have been " I think Annie Social should HAVE made the list." 2. Why should she have?
