Please Support Our Site

Please support our site and help keep our tribute alive.  We don't make any money from this site.  All donations received, as well as all proceeds earned from the sale of merchandise and ads, go to two places.  The first is to pay for the monthly costs of running the site and the second is to our AZWL Benevolent Fund.

The fund helps those Arizona Wrestling Legends in time of need.  In the past, our main use for the funds has been to provide travel assistance (such as hotel rooms) to our legends traveling to our annual reunion from out of state. 

Thank you for your generousity.  We sincerely appreciate your support.

From 1976-1983, Barbara Star toured Arizona wrestling rings. In that time, she made fans sit up and take notice. Equally adept at sigles and tag team wrestling, she was one tough opponent who did considerable damage to the won/loss records of her opponents.

When we asked to describe her career, she said, "I enjoyed a good scientific match, but when the road gets tough, I can get just as rough as the next person." Of that, we have no doubts.

These days, Barbara is retired from the wrestling business, but she is helping disabled and handicapped people. She enjoys yard work, gardening and painting ceramics.
