There are dream events. There are supercards. There are SHIMMER weekends. But what nCw: Femmes Fatale is doing March 30 at Centre St. Barthelemy in Montreal, QC is goddamn historic, both in scope and meaning. The promotion revealed via Twitter last night that they will be hosting four Championship matches from four different promotions, including their own:
March 30th Femmes Fatales XI - NCW Femmes Fatales International Championship : Kalamity (c) Vs. Mercedes Martinez

...SHIMMER's:
March 30th Femmes Fatales XI - @shimmerwomen Championship (if Saraya still champ after March 24th) : @lufisto Vs. @sarayaknight (c)
— nCw Femmes Fatales (@nCwFF) March 5, 2013
...WSU's:
March 30th Femmes Fatales XI - @wsuwrestling Championship : @futurelegendcf Vs. @j_hav (c)

...and Bellatrix Female Warriors':
March 30th Femmes Fatales XI - Bellatrix Female Warriors Championship : @winnipeggerrush Vs. @allisondanger

For those who don't know, Bellatrix is based out of Europe. Anyway, that's a pretty loaded card to begin with. Havox/Melissa is probably the last real name cache main event match if we're confining things solely to women's wrestling. LuFisto's shot at the SHIMMER Championship is long overdue. Mercedes Martinez should provide a great counterbalance to the hard hitting style of Kalamity. And Rush/Danger actually has quite a bit of SHIMMER history attached to it, even if one of the common links is now training Divas down in Florida.
But not only is the card stacked, it shows an enormous amount of goodwill among these four major women's promotions worldwide. Not only is the card special for hosting the shows, the challengers, at least for the three North American shows, are all interlocked in a unique way. Martinez, who is challenging for the nCw: FF Title, is the most recent WSU Champion. That current title holder, Havok, is going up against the wrestler Knight defeated for her gold in Melissa. And LuFisto, who is challenging Knight, was the one Kalamity defeated for the nCw title. That's an amazing amount of interwoven synergy.
This is about as close to an all-star weekend as you can get for women's wrestling. If you can get your passport in order, head into Montreal for this event, and other things. I heard Montreal is an awesome city regardless, but now, there's a big wrestling reason to head there.
