It's similar to a big splash and a pin. Moolah didn't do as much running, jumping, or showmanship as some guys who did splashes would so we thought "body press" was a better wording. Is it the move she finished off her opponent at WM2? Just rewatched it and yes, that's the one. In some of her younger matches, Moolah made a little more of a jump and effort with the press.

My only complaint is that I think Susan Green is rated a bit low

I think the problem is more that there aren't that much Secondary Titles in Women's Wrestling in the past.Moolah and Mildred Burke are heavy hitters in the whole Ladies Universe with Filsinger

Yet the same "fodder" would/could excel at tag team wrestling... There was no real mid-card in the women's division... as we got into the 80's to a degreee and especially moving forward from the 90's and on, this all changed, but i would imagine that trying to figure out "where the ladies fit on the card" for anyone prior to that would be really, really subjective... Having said that, GREAT job to the Legends team for getting us somewhat of a pecking order established!!

It's kind of feast or famine. We appreciate the comments!

Makes it interesting and how wrestling was in some ways very different pre 80s.

Susan Green and others can for sure be very competitive against a Moolah or a Mildred Burke. Not winning much Matches,but giving the audience their moneys worth. And with the Ladies getting more a Secondary Shingles Title is for sure an opportunity for them to shine 🙂

I'm still awaiting my cards but in the current circumstances I'm more concerned on the postal staff staying safe.
