Interview: Dann Read and Emily Read from Pro-Wrestling: EVE

(Repost of an episode of the Holy Shoot podcast from
early 2020)


Back in 2019-2020 when working on the Women Love Wrestling
anthology I was also a part of Holy Shoot - A Wrestling Podcast
team. I used this platform to share some of the interviews
conducted for the book, one of which was a 90 minute discussion
with Emily Read and Dann Reed of Pro-Wrestling: EVE.


Both Emily and Dann were in fine form when I interviewed them in
the run-up to Wrestle Queendom 3 back in January 2020.
 Interview topics include:





What is Pro-Wrestling: EVE

Why Does EVE matter?

Training at EVE Academy and encouraging women to be loud and
physical

How training is different for women compared to men

How and why Pro-Wrestling: EVE obtain mainstream media
attention

Helping wrestlers develop characters with move sets and
promos that make sense for them

The history of Pro-Wrestling: EVE over the past 10 years that
led up to Wrestle Queendom 3

How the 1st Wrestle Queendom, Europe's largest ever
all-female event, came to be

Women's wrestling being ignored by most wrestling sites

Stories about Nina Samuels, Charlie Morgan, Rhea O'Reilly and
Cara Noir



I've kept the interview in its original form, including the
delightful Nina Samuels insulting everyone and my summary of the
interview and Women Love Wrestling project (before we became this
website), followed by the full interview.
