[Wrestling TV show]: Yulie Brynner vs Rose Roman

An episode of a syndicated wrestling show shot at Chicago’s International Amphitheatre. Shot live on film with three-camera coverage, it features a witty and entertaining narration from announcer Russ Davis. This one-fall match features “the world’s ugliest woman” Yulie Brynner (bald headed like Yul) versus Rose Roman. Yulie (aka the Lady Angel) wins the match with a flying mare off the ropes into a bodypress.
