Dangerous Women of Wrestling (DWOW) was founded in 1999 by then-Extreme Championship Wrestling promoter Dan Kowal. The organization was founded as Gorgeous Ladies of Outrageous Wrestling (GLOOW), but changed its name to DWOW in 2003 to avoid confusion with Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling.[1] The company features a mixture of extreme wrestling, some nudity, and oil wrestling.[2][3]
The Beautiful Babes of Wrestling (BBOW) promotion is separate from DWOW/GLOOW. Although it used a similar roster, BBOW was composed mainly of women from Maryland Championship Wrestling and women from DWOW/GLOOW.[4] DWOW/GLOOW is also separate from Women's Extreme Wrestling, which was founded in 2002 by Dave Milan, Dan Kowal, Steve Karel and Greg Bagarozy and used a similar talent roster. Whereas WEW ran pay-per-view events, DWOW focused on television and served as a developmental territory for WEW.[1]
DWOW aired a television series in the local Pennsylvania and Northeastern Atlantic markets until the company want on an intermittent hiatus in 2004. They announced a new television deal in 2010. The Dangerous Women of Wrestling Underground television series debuted on August 28, 2010, on The Fight Network.

Delta Tiger Lilies was an all-female wrestling company that operated in 1988 and produced direct-to-video matches.

During one of the events, Simmes challenged Miceli to a title unification match (NWA United States Women's Title and AWA World Women's Title), but the match never happened.[5] At another event, former NWA World Women's Champion Debbie Combs challenged Simmes for the NWA United States Women's Championship, but Simmes was unable to accept due to an arm injury she had sustained.

CRUSH was founded in 2002 by former Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling host Johnny Cafarella. Cafarella developed an idea for a new television series that was loosely based on the original concept for GLOW and later used for Women of Wrestling (WOW). With Steve Blance, Jimmy Hart, and the Flying Farley Brothers (brothers of late comedian Chris Farley), he filmed matches for the pilot episode of a proposed all-women's wrestling/sketch comedy television series called CRUSH in February 2003.
Although Hart stated in radio interviews that the series would debut on the Comedy Central network in fall 2003 and that Tom Arnold would be involved in the series, the pilot was not sold to any networks or distributors.[13] In 2008, Cafarella and Hart partnered with Jonathan Vargas, who won a Powerball jackpot of $35.3 million the same year. Reusing many of the characters (although portrayed by different wrestlers and models/actresses) from CRUSH, they filmed matches for the pilot of Wrestlicious during the summer.
