Description

Arm Wrestling can be traced all the way back to ancient Egypt where a painting depicting a type of arm wrestling was found in an Egyptian tomb dating to about 2,000 B.C. The modern sport is based on a Native American game. In the early years, different names were interchangeably used to describe the same sport: "arm turning", "arm twisting", "arm wrestling", "Indian arm wrestling", "twisting wrists", "wrist turning", "wrist wrestling".[1] Organized armwrestling tournaments started being held in the 1950s.

Women’s divisions were being included in an increasing number of arm wrestling tournaments during the ‘70s, but it was in the ‘80s that participation really took a jump. Some of the top female pullers of the ‘70s enjoyed continued success into the ‘80s, but there were also several new pullers who came onto the scene and made waves during the decade.

The top pullers met up at the biggest tournaments. These included national and world championships put on by organizations such as the World’s Wrist wrestling Championship (WWC), the World Professional Armwrestling Association (WPAA), the World Arm Wrestling Federation (WAWF), the American Armwrestling Association (AAA), Arm Wrestling International (AWI), the International Wristwrestling Club (IWC), and the World Professional Wristwrestling Association (WPWA).

Based on an analysis of the tournament results I’ve managed to find, the following is a list of who I believe to have been the top 10 female pullers of the 1980s.
