10 Best Intergender Wrestling Matches Ever

One of the few times where the male wrestler was the intergender underdog, Stevie Richards bit off way more than he could chew opposite the fearsome Luna Vachon.

Locked in a steel cage, Raven's long-suffering sidekick threw down with Vachon in a bloody, volatile affair that managed to startle ECW's notoriously rowdy audience. As was customary with Richards in his earlier days, he bumped like a madman to get the bout over, ricocheting all over the shop from Vachon's stiff offense. The match ends on a legs-crossing moment for male viewers, with a bloodied Vachon extracting the tap from Richards via a stomach-churning testicular vice grip.

This bizarre, brutal sprint match functioned as a part of the then-ongoing classic feud between Tommy Dreamer and Raven. The grunge wrestling icon made his presence felt in the cage shortly thereafter, obliterating the victorious Vachon with his signature DDT.

The heat from this bout succeeded as a means of getting both Vachon and the bigger Dreamer/Raven story more over with the ECW faithful. Through expanding the cast and adding even more villainous oomph to Raven's actions, Paul Heyman continued on the path to making it the defining feud of the Land of the Extreme's brief but memorable time in the wrestling world.
