Iris (Vicki Frederick) and Molly (Laurene Landon) are the California Dolls traveling the country with their hard-nosed manager Harry Sears (Peter Falk) to wrestle in rundown events. The girls try to do it seriously but money is tight and life on the road is a struggle. Sleazy promoter Eddie Cisco (Burt Young) shorts the girls $20 and Harry takes a bat to his Mecedes. In the end, he comes to them with a title fight.
On the surface, one would think this is a simple T&A B-movie of the era but it's actually a good movie about an unconventional family. I really love their relationship. The actual wrestling isn't quite as interesting. It's questionable whether that many people would watch serious women's wrestling. It would be more like a carnival sideshow or WWF in the old days. All that aside, this is a great family unit to watch.
