Madusa vs. Bambi WCW Power Hour 1991 |
Through-out her career Bambi had a long running feud with Peggy Lee Leather that crossed promotions. They had matches in Smoky Mountain Wrestling, NWA, WCW, and all across the independents. They feud went to the next level in late 2000 early 2001 in the Women of Wrestling Promotion.
On the very first episode of WOW television Leather, now going by the moniker Thug defeated Bambi, now going by Selina Majors. Fast forward to episode 12 in November 2000 Majors defeated Thug in a falls count anywhere match. On episode 15 in December they fought to a no-contest in a Lumberjack Match.
Their feud in WOW came to a head at the promotions only Pay Per View event WOW Unleashed February 4, 2001. In a Steel Cage match Thug defeated Majors. This cage was essentially a Hell in a Cell cage without the roof.
After WOW closed it doors Bambi continued wrestling on the independents in the South. There is a documentary called Southern Discomfort: Wrestling on the Indie Circuit that is pretty fantastic. It came out in 2002 and is about an indie show in Alabama. Bambi and Peggy Lee Leather had a match against each other that night and are featured in the picture. Worth watching if you can find it.
After a few years off Bambi returned to wrestling in 2016. She wrestled Amber Gallows failing to capture the NWA Women's Championship on February 20, 2016 in Barnesville, Georgia and returned to WOW as Selina Majors when the promotion reactivated in fall of 2016.

I've always been a fan of Bambi and she is someone that I would love to meet some day at a convention or even better to watch her and Peggy Lee Leather have one more match in person.
