Transcript (Download)

One fall with a 20 minute time limit.

Weighing 130 pounds from Lincoln, Nebraska, Yulie Brehner.

Our opponent weighing 140 pounds from Des Moines, Iowa, Rose Roma.

The referee Ed Wehler.

One fall, 20 minute time limit.

Russ Davis, Ringside International Amphitheater, Chicago.

Well, we got one here for you.

This gal here doing all the gesturing is billed as the world's ugliest woman.

So far, I haven't seen anything.

Rose Roman is meeting her.

Now I've seen it all.

Well, I don't know Yulie.

She doesn't have the handicap that you have.

For what reason did this girl, oh no.

There's a headlock with no hair to grab.

Whiskers by the honey.

I don't know fellas.

This doesn't even look like a woman to me.

A lady, whatever you want to call it.

That's just a hold inside and over.

Hair, hair, hair, hair.

That's supposed to be a reverse headlock.

Spanky, spanky, spank.

Honey, you can't blame her.

Your ears stick out too far.

Tickle, tickle, tickle.

Go back and get a toupee.

I'm looking at this gal's haircut and thinking the one I've got that my wife gave me.

With a pair of dull clippers no less.

But I still think I look better.

Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle.

I wonder what she looks like with a full head of hair.

She can't be that ugly.

I have a couple of creditors that look that way in my dreams.

No, it just can't be.

I can't understand why that should bother anybody.

Particularly, Yulie Brenner.

Because this thing she had to do of her own free will.

There's an old saying in Ireland that goes, oy vey.

Down to two on Roman.

Boy, this gal Brenner is going to hang on to that rope.

She's like a leaseholder.

She doesn't want to quit.

I must admit she's a little bit homely.

She looks like a jug.

That slick head.

That's a good one.

Do something about it.

Grow some hair over.

A headlock on Roman.

Miss and I use the word advisedly.

This fix is everything.

Both worm and all.

You know we could have saved this footage.

Off of the ropes and reverse back flip.

Flying body press.

Well, Q ball is one.

I've seen it all now.

Make this official.

The winner with a body.

You leave right now.

Well, that's it.

Uncle Russ from ringside Internet.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.

I'm going to go.
