History
Before creating the Naked Women's Wrestling League, the creators tried other products that featured naked women, such as online gambling, before settling on nude female wrestling.[2]
The NWWL wrestlers were trained by Ron Hutchinson.[2][3] The show made its debut in 2004 with the release of the pay-per-view show "Vegas Stripped". It returned to pay-per-view in 2006, with the "Naked Revolution" show. Carmen Electra hosted the show, while other celebrities to appear on the program included pro-wrestling manager Jimmy "Mouth of the South" Hart, as well as adult entertainment star Mary Carey.[3][4] Pay-per-views feature female wrestlers wrestling in both clothed and nude.[3]
In November 2007, Electra announced a lawsuit against the NWWL for, among other things, breach of contract and failure to pay money that she claimed was still due to her.[1] In response, NWWL owner Howard Mann revealed that he would seek damages for defamation, slander and malicious persecution.[1]
In late 2007, the NWWL launched a website where their nude wrestling matches are available for download. Since the promotion debuted, the NWWL shows have been broadcast in approximately 38 countries.[2] In addition, the wrestlers have been featured in Penthouse, Playboy, and Maxim.[2]
