This story is a bit wordy and fairly long, so if you are looking for immediate gratification, you might want to look elsewhere.

This story takes place in the entirely fictional city of Springfield, California, so don't go looking for it on a map. And in my little fictional world, there are no unwanted pregnancies or STD's, except as plot driving devices. The author encourages the practice of safe-sex.
This story is about two of my favorite things: Lesbians and professional wrestling. And the story is a bit wordy, so if you are looking for immediate gratification, you might want to look elsewhere.

"Ringside Seats . . ." Part 1
-------------- ----------------------
"Good God, what a shot! That knocked her head clean off! We have One! Two! Three! And it's over! Demonica wins with the Clothesline of the Damned, and Good Girl Gabriel is left laying in the ring!"
As Tiffany Thurman, known to local wrestling fans as Demonica exited the ringside area, she was clutching her neck. Gabby, her opponent that evening, had botched a German suplex and Tiffany knew she was going to be hurting in the morning. What made matters worse was that Tiffany was going to get chewed out for throwing a stiff clothesline right after that. It didn't matter to John Wells that Gabby was a horrible worker. She was a hot piece of ass who constantly sucked up to him, so Tiffany was going to be the one taking the blame. But the crowd had been relatively into the match, so it probably wouldn't be too bad.
She wandered through the back curtain and into the backstage area, heading for the locker room. She got a couple high-fives on the way from the ring crew and other personnel, and she returned them with a smile. For all the politics and sore muscles and the occasional broken bones, she loved her business . . . most of the time. She, her father and grandfather used to watch professional wrestling all the time. The biggest thrill of her life had been when her dad and grandfather had taken her to the Great American Bash in 1987 to watch the Wargames match-up with the Horsemen and J. J. Dillon versus the American Dream, the Russian Nightmare and the Road Warriors with Precious Paul Ellering. She had been hooked ever since. Now, at the age of twenty-eight, she was an eight-year veteran of the squared circle. She had started working out when she was fourteen years old and had never stopped. She had gotten a degree in physical therapy with an emphasis on sports therapy, but that had just been to make her family happy. She had started training at a pro wrestling school when she was eighteen. Tiffany had been the only girl at the school, which meant she got some unwanted attention. But she felt she was good and that she could make it to the major leagues if she just stuck to it. She had even gotten breast implants when she was twenty-two to help retain some of her "femininity" that might have otherwise been lost due to her rigorous exercise regiment.
She got into the locker area and went to wash her hands, then stared at herself in the mirror. Her makeup had run quite a bit in that match. "I look like a depressed clown," she told herself. No one had ever been able to convince Tiffany that she was attractive, even though most people found her to be so. She may have been a little too muscular for some potential suitors, but she didn't care. She washed the black, red and white face paint away to reveal a tanned face, beautiful green eyes and good skin. She let her medium-length brown hair out from the confines of her headband, then started to remove her trademark black leather costume. A couple of the other girls wandered through, but most of them didn't speak to her. She intimidated some and others stayed away because she was often at odds with the guy who signed their paychecks. But some had other reasons. As Tiffany grabbed a towel and popped back into the showers, a couple of girls quickly exited with looks of disdain on their faces. Tiffany could have sworn she heard the phrase "dirty dyke" filter back through the pungent air.
"You'd think that wouldn't matter anymore, but still . . ." she muttered to herself. But it was true in a sense. Tiffany had eventually accepted that she was in fact a homosexual. Of course, she had tried very hard to convince herself otherwise for many years back in the day, to the point she had gotten involved with some guys she probably shouldn't have. One of them had left her a present. After her shower, she wrapped a towel around herself and went back into the locker room, only to find someone waiting for her.
"Mommy!" came a delighted squeal as Tiffany's seven-year-old daughter bolted through across the floor only to be swept up in her mother's powerful arms.
"Hey pumpkin!" Tiffany said, an enormous smile on her face. While her life may not have gone in the direction she originally intended, Sally Thurman was one thing that Tiffany wouldn't have changed for the world. Sally's father had been a useless piece of garbage who had charmed Tiffany's pants off and then disappeared, but she wasn't bitter about it. "Where's Aunt Betty?"
"Right here," came a voice from the door. Betty was Tiffany's older sister and often acted as a babysitter. While she wasn't thrilled about her younger sister's choice of occupations, the two were close and both absolutely doted over Sally. Anyone who watched Tiffany in the ring would probably be amazed at how gentle those powerful arms could be when wrapped around that little girl. "Don't worry, we didn't watch the match."
Tiffany was still smiling as she rubbed noses with her daughter. Sally had issues when it came to her mother's matches. She didn't like seeing someone punching Tiffany or hitting her with a metal folding-chair, even though she knew it was choreographed. "Thanks. I owe you."
"It's not a problem. I love spending time with the munchkin. By the way, Dad wanted to know if you're bringing her by on Tuesday for his birthday party."
"Wouldn't miss it for the world."
"Are you . . . bringing someone? A date maybe?"
Tiffany rolled her eyes. Her family was still freaked out by Tiffany's apparent switch in sexual preference even though it had been six years since her "coming out", but they tried their best to be understanding. But Tiffany had only been on a handful of dates since Sally was born, and hadn't had a relationship that lasted longer than a couple of months. Between taking care of Sally, wrestling, training, and working her second job as a bartender, Tiffany had given up all hope on a social life. And even if she had a spare hour or so, there weren't a lot of people who wanted to hang out with a single mother who smashed people's faces for a living. "No, no date."
"Listen, I've got this friend . . ."
