Missouri Wrestling Revival fans love affair with “The Latino Princess Lucy Mendez continues in 2014. Mendez has always shared a unique relationship with their fans. Since training with the 8-time NWA World Champion Harley Race, she has been a double threat as a wrestler and valet for many of the top promotions and wrestlers in the Midwest. Aligning herself with the likes of Ricky Cruz, Dan Walsh, and Brandon Espinosa she has been a huge draw for World League Wrestling, Metro Pro Wrestling, Dynamo Pro Wrestling, 3XWrestling and Proving Ground Pro while trailblazing her way to Resistance Pro Wrestling. No matter where we go, she is one of the most requested photo ops asked by the fans and this years’ MWR Fans Choice Award for MWR Best Female Wrestler victory follows up the huge 2014 MWR Sexiest Female trophy this past February. This past Monday night saw Mendez add the title as an Adam Rose‘s Rosebud on PPV from St. Louis’s Survivor Series.
Voted on as second runner-up as the MWR fans Choice Award winner goes to the two time MWR Female Wrestler of the Year Miss Natural. The daughter of Ken Patera, Heather Patera who also was trained by Harley Race continues to have another strong year as she once again added the WLW Ladies Championship to her resume. In 2014, she once again continued to travel outside of the area as well for top promotions such as SHIMMER, and All American Wrestling, while feuding with rival Stacey O’Brien. Miss Natural also appeared on WWE’s Monday Night RAW earlier this year.
One of the best kept secrets in the Midwest, very well could be the women that recently returned from Japan and that is none other than Melanie Cruise. The first lady of Proving Ground Pro combines beauty and power that leaves her fans impressed and her opponents stunned. Coming back home from Japan she won the AIWF Championship and looks to be poised for an even bigger 2015.
The third runner up is Angelus Layne. Layne is a perennial contender for the MWR Female Wrestler of the Year. 2014 looked to be the year that Layne had dreamed of as a little girl, and that day would be double sweet as she not only had the opportunity to be married to Brandon Espinosa, but also be able to win the SLA belt from Gary Jay. Wedding Crashers was the theme of the night as BOSS attacked the ceremony and Layne, causing the end of the marriage before it was even validated. In the main event, Layne could not overcome the chaos of Jays’ gang during the match while trying to pin one of the top wrestlers in 2014. Still, she has earned the respect of the MWR Fans and was named as the third runner up.
