This Month's Catfight Report Poll - "The Kat" Stacy Carter vs "The She Devil" Terri Runnels

You know you have dreamed about this.

Any man...........or woman............who ever watched Terri Runnels and Stacy Carter go one on one in the ring has almost certainly been "turned on" in some form or fashion.

Pitting these two against one another was one of Vince McMahon's best moves.    Not only were both women extremely easy to look at, but they both drastically improved in the ring, and became very entertaining performers.

All that is fine and dandy.    There is no need to continue with the adulations and congratulations that both of these women most certainly deserve.

We are not here to give adulations.    We are here to ask a question.   
1 question.


If Terri Runnels and Stacy Carter decided to wrestle
FOR REAL
.............
who would emerge as the winner?

No scripts, no frills........just the best woman......in a wrestling match with pin counts and/or submissions.

Who do you think would emerge as the winner and why?

Would you choose:

Terri Runnels

































Terri "The She Devil" Runnels

Billed Height: 5'0"
Billed Weight: 105lbs

OR

Stacy "The Kat" Carter
Billed Height:   5'3"

Kim Couture and Lisa Marie Varon Insist Recent Pro Wrestling Catfight Was Real

Hot, hot, and hot.

Kim Couture showed up at Sunday's TNA Bound for Glory and was going to be a part of a small angle with Lisa Marie Varon where they would perform a small staredown in the ring.

Reports claim Kim did not make it in time but was still present ringside during the Women's championship match.   The two did meet, unexpectantly, if you believe reports, as Victoria fell near to where Kim was standing.

Kim "nudged" Lisa Marie in the back and a short shoving match ensued.

Both women claim this altercation was real but they have since made up.    Many feel this may be an angle as Lisa Marie Varon has stated in the recent past that she has a strong interest in MMA.   

Kim Couture vs Lisa Marie Varon would surely be a huge draw.

At the Catfight Report............we suggest TNA wrestling get with the program.  

Let's see Lisa Marie Varon and Kim Couture............for real...........non-scripted........in an MMA matchup.........on a future PPV. 

Lisa has a size advantage but Kim most likely has the experience advantage.   

Who do you think would come out on top if these two indeed do go at it in the future?

Kim Couture?


OR

Lisa Marie Varon?

Catfight Report Exclusive Interview: Eric Etebari - The Director of Bare Knuckles

CATFIGHT REPORT EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW:
ERIC ETEBARI





 










THE DIRECTOR OF BARE KNUCKLES


Learn more about Eric at his website:

http://www.eric-etebari.com

Learn about Eric and his acting career at Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Etebari

Eric Etebari is no stranger to Hollywood but this is his first time producing a movie. The Catfight Report was quite interested in talking to this gentleman because he is covering a subject that is very near and dear to all of us.

Female Fighting.  :)

Eric was kind enough to take some time out of his busy schedule to answer some questions we whipped up for him. We were extremely impressed with his answers and this is a guy to keep tabs on in the near future and you can read why below.

1.   Where did the idea for the movie Bare Knuckles come from?

Eric Etebari:  I believe the original writer was inspired when he saw two girls going at it in a catfight in his neighborhood. He was so taken by how tough, brave and hot these chicks were and they weren't just pulling hair. I took the script and rewrote it.   I was inspired by a true story about an amazing woman I know (Jeanette Roxobrough) that has defied the odds and has done what ever it takes to help her daughter walk. Even if it means tying up her hair, kicking off her high heels, and opening a can of whip ass!

2.    It is often lamented in the catfight community that many of the Hollywood directors "don't get it".   Many times when female combat takes place........a man always runs in and breaks it up.   Not to mention, the choreography sometimes is questionable, and the action often looks faked or staged.  The Catfight Report gets the feeling this won't be the case in Bare Knuckles.  Can you elaborate?  

Eric Etebari:  No guys butting in on this film. They are all on the sideline smelling the roses as the chicks kick ass!  I used nothing but stunt women so I wouldn't have to worry about any wimpy actresses breaking their nails and complaining about their hair. We shot so fast.............I needed girls that knew how to fight..... and were not afraid to get down and dirty!   This Director.........“gets it!”

3.   What is the Bare Knuckles story all about?
  


Synopsis:
Women will go to extreme lengths for those they love and single mother Samantha Rogers is no exception. With her seven year old daughter Milla, in need of special care, Sam struggles to make ends meet, taking her licks as a stunt woman by day and waitressing at a rowdy country bar at night.

When Sam uses her skills to avoid  a bar fight between two drunk women, down and out fight promoter Sonny Cool (Karate kid’s Martin Kove) sees an opportunity to get back into "The Show" a high class, but highly illegal all female Bare Knuckle fight tournament, where brutality and elegance mix with high stakes and deception.

To provide for her family, Samantha is forced into taking Sonny's offer.  Is the price too much for her...? “Bare Knuckles”.....................a knockout punch of strength and determination inspired by a true story.

4.   Be honest with us.   Was this Bare Knuckles production more about telling a story......or was it more about giving us hot blooded males and females one of our favorite life pleasures?   (2 women going one on one)   :)

Eric Etebari:   It was both. The true story element gave me the confidence to get behind such a remarkable family (Jeanette and her daughter Teya) and tell this story. But I have to admit..... I might make female fight films for the rest of my life!  Who could ask for anything more!  Girls, girls, and more girls all shapes, colors and sizes.  I love them all......

5.   What are some of the biggest challenges you have faced producing this film?

Eric Etebari:   Besides having never directed a film and getting investors to give me a shot as a first time Director it was talking people into seeing and believing that this is a growing sport and trend. Women can be sexy and tough........ or better yet........... very sexy and very tough!   Hello, they just added Female boxing to the 2012 Olympics in Brazil.  I can’t wait to go!!!

6.   Are you a fan of catfights or female combat yourself?   If so, explain your preferences.

Eric Etebari:  Catfights. They are way more hands on and way sexier.  Hair and sweat going all over the place, clothes being ripped off, and, and, and, and...........oops...........did i just say that?

7.   The female combat - female wrestling - catfight community is looking for a friend in Hollywood to give us a reason to keep going to the theater.    Would you be interested in doing more films like this if the catfight community came out in droves?    What other ideas do you have in the works?

Eric Etebari:  Bare Knuckles #2 “Black Gold”.  Boy, the ideas i have for this one!  I’m going to take it to another level.  The female version of 300.  I’m going to add elements of water, wind and mud. Yes, that’s what I said!  Move on over male Gladiators and Rambo’s..... you bore me.  Look out for the new girls in town!   :)

8.   Who do you think would win in a real life fight between Bridgett "Baby Doll" Riley (Mona) and Jeanette Roxborough (Samantha)?

Eric Etebari:   That’s a fixed question!  Your going to get my butt kicked by one of them if I answer that .  You’ll have to see the movie and decide for yourself.  :)

9.   When is Bare Knuckles set to be released and where can people view it?

We just landed a foreign distribution deal with Curb Ent and are in negotiations for domestic theatrical release. Keep your fingers and toes crossed for that theatrical release. That would wake Hollywood up to what’s going on!

10.  Please list all the places fans can learn about Bare Knuckles on the internet and please close with any neat or interesting stories or anything you want to finish off with.

Eric Etebari:   Right now you can view the cast and some info on IMDB.com we should have some more info soon.

I have two things I would like to share. First we had Jeanette’s real daughter (Teya) play the role of Jeanette's daughter in the film.   The kid was great......but at some point someone must have got to her because at 10 years old in her first role she was insisting we shoot only two takes

I wasn’t going to argue with a mother's child. No Way!  She was great and stole the show when her scenes come up. The other one was when we where shooting the final fight at the famous Castle Kashan in Malibu.

All of a sudden Anthony Hopkins shows up.  That’s right Anthony Hopkins

The whole place is buzzing, everyone is taking his picture, and talking to him. My mother, Jean Ferro, who was the photographer on the film started to talk to him. Before i knew it...... she said he would like to be in the film.  Wow!

So everyone started coming up to me saying Anthony Hopkins wants to be in the film. I think I went into shock because I started asking for things we did not have. I was like.......... “bring in the helicopter for the aerial shot!”

My aid said........... Eric there is no helicopter!  Oh.  :)

I then said.......... “bring in the 40ft crane, I need to get this shot! “

He again replied............. we don’t have a 40 foot crane! 

He then pulled me aside and told me to take a deep breath and then get back to my scenes. I truly believed for a moment I was on a multimillion dollar set with Anthony Hopkins.  I guess you could call me a day dreamer. Once i gathered myself I walked over and introduced myself to him  He was very kind and very curious. He seemed very interested in this topic of girls in the ring.

I walked him around the castle away from all the crew and explained the story to him. He then said... let’s shoot a scene. I said...... I don’t have a helicopter or 40ft crane. He laughed and said......well...... you have a camera don’t you?  Oh yes I do!

Anthony Hopkins walked in and do an improv during a scene we were shooting. He was great! He lifted all of our spirits and gave us great enthusiasms to get through the rest of the shoot.  It could be one of the greatest experiences I have had on set!  Believe it or not the scene did not make the cut but will be added it to the behind the scenes extra’s footage. 

I do have plans to put him in Bare Knuckles #2. 

The one thing i learned on this film is “Anything is possible if you truly believe in it”.

Thank you Eric Etebari!

Catfight Fans!
This is our opportunity!   Chances are Bare Knuckles will be playing at the theater soon.  We need to get out and make a symbolic showing here.   We can show Hollywood that not only are we female fighting fans "out there"..........but we number in the millions!   The best way to keep up on this project is to join Eric on Myspace and Facebook on the Bare Knuckles pages.

Meow!

Will Kristen Bell and Christina Aguilera get into a catfight in the new movie called "Burlesque"?

Kristen Bell is the bad girl.
Christina Aguilera is the good girl.

(shouldn't this be the other way around?)

Reports claim the story revolves around the journey of an ambitious small-town girl (Christina Aguilera) with a big-town voice who finds love and success in a Los Angeles burlesque club.

Kristen Bell will be playying Nikki, the loose-cannon lead dancer and main attraction at the club who spirals out of control when Christina Aguilera's character suddenly gets the spotlight.

The movie begins filming on November 9th 2009 and is expected to be released sometime around Thanksgiving next year in 2010.

The ingredients for a catfight seem to be here!    Who wouldn't love a good all out bitchfight between Christina and Kristen?

Meow!

Who wins?

Christina Aguilera?


or

Kristen Bell?

Drew Barrymore loves a good Catfight-Girl Fight!

Nice!



Drew Barrymore will be starring in a new movie called "Whip it" and it features a bunch of rollergirls.   Drew Barrymore's nemesis in the film appears to be Juliette Lewis and it seems to promise a catfight or two.

Found this tidbit at the sourced website below it:

Barrymore, who also plays Smashley Simpson in the movie, trained with real-life Detroit Derby Girls star Racer McChasHer.

"We were wrestling and rolling around on the track, and both of us feel one of our skates and both our body weights on my thigh," Barrymore said last night while promoting the flick at the Tough Cookies vs. Varsity Brawlers match in L.A. "I had a bruise that was a foot long and a foot wide. My entire leg was covered."

But she isn't complaining…

"That's a merit badge," Barrymore said of her bruise. "That's cool."

Besides, she added, "I don't think there's anything hotter or more fun to do than a girl fight."
