Because it's fun! ;D That's it, nothing more. It's not about 5 star classics or emotional drama, it's just fun. And why is it fun?
1. The Wrestlers - These girls who grace the SHIMMER ring are legit wrestlers. They love their craft and want to be good in the ring and SHIMMER allows them that opportunity.
2. The Crowds - The only people who will ever buy a ticket to an all female wrestling show are those who want to have fun and enjoy the show. The pricks tend to avoid shows like this, thus ensuring good, appreciative crowds every time.
3. The Difference - Women's wrestling is far different from men's wrestling, and because there's so much men's wrestling out there, seeing something different once in a while is fun.
And on a final note, I find SHIMMER fun because Daizee Haze is a top star. That girl always makes me smile.

I don't know about #2. The crowd seemed a little bored on the Volume 2 DVD. Perhaps it was because it was part 2 of the tapings but it didn't seem like everyone was all there.

Well, better quiet than annoying, I suppose. Anyone care to share why they like SHIMMER?

I prefer annoying over quiet, to be honest. It'll be lame to have someone make a hot tag or do a really awesome move and gain no reaction at all.

My main reason for liking Shimmer is that you have legitimate wrestling involving the ladies whom do this because they enjoy the competition. They have worked really hard to be the best they can be. I'd rather watch Shimmer, then see phony stuff like pillow fights, Diva searches or other trash. I might as well ruffle a few feathers here and call the NWWL trash. To say that is legitimate wrestling is a JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a fantastic alternative to what the WWE are churning out in terms of women's wrestling. I'm well behind (I only have Volume 1) but it doesn't stop me from watching it on a regular basis, and it wont be long before I do pick up the other Volumes.

Even though I'm new to Shimmer, (Just picked up Vol. 3 at the ROH show in philly this past weekend) I like it because, the Shimmer girls can out wrestle most male wrestlers in today's biz.
I always enjoyed women's wrestling, but thought that I had to watch tapes from japan and Mexico to see good women's wrestling, but ive never been so happy to be wrong. Ill be supporting Shimmer for ever and ever!
