LADYSPORTS: Welcome to LadySports, Allie! When did you first get into the sport?
ALLIE PARKER: 2010, but I've watched pro wrestling since I can remember.
Its always been a part of my life.
LS: Who trained you?
AP: Ryan Taylor and Allison Danger.
LS: What was your biggest influence to become a wrestler?
AP: The creativity. You get to be a stunt woman, actress, and a fighter...it's amazing!
LS: What other sports do you have an interest in?
AP: MMA, dance, ice skating...actually, I like most sports and usually will play
anything.
LS: How would you describe yourself in terms of attitude, personality, likes,
dislikes, and strengths?
AP: I'm usually too nice! I will do anything to help someone, but I also think
people underestimate me.
I don't show people my cards, and they think things just get handed to me because I don't announce
every step I take. But behind the scenes I work my ass off for all of the opportunities I've had.
NOTHING had come easy to me or has been handed to me.
LS: What is your most marked characteristic as a wrestler?
AP: I'd say my peppy 'sweetheart' attitude. People love it, and that's good
because that's the real me shining through!
LS: Describe a typical day of training for you. What is most important in your workout?
AP: I do it all! Right now I'm looking to burn fat, so I've upped my cardio, but I also do
legs, and I'm trying hard to get a good set of guns! When I'm not at the regular gym, I go to DXG Self
Defense and train in JKD, boxing, kickboxing, and jiu jitsu.
LS: How would you best describe your ring style?
AP: I prefer to make someone tap, or go for a knockout... so I'd say submission specialist!
LS: What moves are you best known for?
AP: I do a solid Clf Tie in the ropes. I won my fist fight in the LFC with guillotine.
LS: Have you ever been injured in the ring?
AP: Not really, but I've had my tooth chipped twice.
LS: Who have been your toughest opponent?
AP: Jennifer Thomas.
LS: What has been your most memorable win?
AP: My first LFC win; I made her tap one second before the round ended with a guillotine!
LS: And what was your worst loss?
AP: Anytime I get knocked out!
LS: Who is the one wrestler you would most like to face in the ring, but haven't yet?
AP: There are too many to list!
LS: What type of match do you enjoy the most?
AP: Comedy! I love to be fun and entertaining.
LS: What sort of reactions do you get from people when they learn you are a wrestler?
AP: People are a little confused, because most women don't do pro wrestling.
LS: What is so special about this sport to you?
AP: I grew up with it, it reminds me of spending time with my family. That's what I
hope to do for other people and their families, entertain and inspire.
LS: What are your fans like?
AP: The best! They are so sweet... no matter if I win or lose, they always support me.
I'm so grateful!
LS: If you had the power, what one thing would you do to improve the sport?
AP: The pay! Wrestlers do so much damage to their bodies, and the pay just doesn't
seem enough sometimes.
LS: Where have you wrestled, and what titles have you held?
AP: I've wrestled mainly on the West Coast. On the East Coast I've wrestled in
Rhode Island and Connecticut, and more recently fought in Slovakia. No titles held.
LS: What are your thoughts on women participating in the sport?
AP: I think it's great, we need more women in wrestling!
LS: What was your most unforgettable moment in the sport?
AP: Probably my match with Shelly Martinez in Alaska. We just had such a good time...
to this day this was my favorite match.
LS: Any regrets?
AP: Only that I didn't start earlier.
LS: What would you do if you couldn't be in wrestling?
AP: I'd be running a business. I'm working on a retail business now as we speak!
LS: What is your personal motto?
AP: Dress for the part you want, not the part you have!
LS: What would make you most happy in life?
AP: To be in love, and be loved back.
LS: Anything else you'd like to add?
AP: Follow me on social media! Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat: @theeallieparker
