You just can't go wrong picking up any Fight Card story. They are all terrific. And this one is certainly not an exception to the rule. Job Girl gives us a couple of twists on the usual fight card story. For one thing, it's about wrestling, not boxing. For another, it's about a lady wrestler and narrated from her point of view. And, thirdly, a lot of the action takes place south of the border among the masked Luchadores. This is the story of Vicky, better known as The Queen of the Jungle, who finds work as a jobber. In other words, she is paid to take a fall, to be the villain, to lose, to advance someone else's career. It's a rough life and nets her little respect -and even less money. There are great fight scenes both inside and outside of the ring. There's also the story of American wrestlers in Mexico where wrestling is a big deal.
