“A look at the personal and professional lives of a group of women who perform for a wrestling organization in Los Angeles during the 1980s.”
The first season of GLOW took Netflix by storm and much to the delight of viewers the girls are back in their ridiculously outdated yet oddly appealing wrestling attire for a 3rd season. GLOW is hilarious, well-written, and just ridiculous enough to offer a little bit for everyone. Plus I can’t get enough of shows and movies that are set in the 80’s and apparently Netflix agrees! Check out the official trailer for the 3rd season of GLOW below!!
Ted Takes Fun Facts, GLOW:
Kia Stevens, who plays Tamee/Welfare Queen in the series, is the only female cast member who is actually a professional wrestler. Stevens has been a champion all over the world wrestling under the name Awesome Kong (sometimes Amazing Kong). She also briefly wrestled in WWE as Kharma.
The wrestler who trained the actresses for this series, Chavo Guerrero Jr., is the nephew of Armando Guerrero a.k.a. Mando, the trainer for the wrestlers on the original 1980s series.
