Get Your Bell Rung Pro Wrestling Podcast: Guest- Queen Victoria
from The Retro Wrestling Archive Podcasts · host Retro Wrestling Archive Podcasts
On this episode of Get Your Bell Rung, host K.G. Landry sits down with Vicki Otis, known to wrestling fans as Princess Victoria, for a powerful and deeply personal conversation that goes far beyond the usual wrestling interview.Vicki discusses her upcoming book, Fighting the Wrong Side of the Sun: Becoming Princess Victoria, and opens up about the difficult road that led her into professional wrestling. She talks honestly about surviving a traumatic childhood, leaving home at 14, being taken in by the Portland Wrestling scene, and how professional wrestling quite literally saved her life.The episode covers her early days around Portland Wrestling, training under Sandy Barr, learning from names like Buddy Rose, Roddy Piper, Dutch Savage, Stan Stasiak, The Sheepherders, and others, and eventually becoming one of the first WWF Women’s Tag Team Champions alongside Velvet McIntyre.Vicki also reflects on the physical toll of the business, breaking her neck in her final match, her complicated relationship with The Fabulous Moolah, the difference between “Moolah the wrestler” and Lillian Ellison the booker, and why she walked away from watching wrestling for years due to how women were presented.This is an emotional, honest, and inspiring episode about survival, wrestling, trauma, strength, and the people who helped Vicki Otis become Princess Victoria and, more importantly, helped her keep going.
