Since it was impossible to actually be there, watching it on video was the next best thing. It was right out of a teenage house party. You’re in the living room at the host’s home, a little bored. Everyone else is doing the usual so you decide to walk down the hallway and peek inside one of the rooms, hoping to spot some action.

There’s a noise coming from one of the bedrooms. You walk closer and gently crack the door and observe a small but clearly delirious audience watching two girls wrestle on a bed.

It’s time to join the delirious.

When I first saw Melanie wrestling her sister Ina on a bed, there was no audience allowed except me through video. I thought Nah, this can’t be. That girl is not her sister but it turned out that Melanie truly was wrestling her sister on the bed, then the floor and then all around the room.

What a cute girl.

I first saw Melanie back in the late 90’s and I have to admit because of her petite frame, sweet girl like demeanor and tough Danube associates like Luzia that she had to wrestle against; I didn’t see her as one of DWW’s top performers. The blonde Czech Terminator Luzia almost broke Melanie’s jaw with an alligator like head scissors that reduced our sweet Hungarian Princess to tears.

It’s interesting how the memory fades and the mind can play tricks on you. After researching Melanie for the first time and putting memory aside, I’m a little shocked at how good she actually was.

Here are the cast of Danube Soldiers that she met at the mats. The resume includes Christie, Timea C, Kriszta, Ingrid, Denise, Iva, Edina, Susanne, Lenka, Luzia, Ina and Joanna to name a few.

What stands out are her signature matches where she does well or wins against a more experienced or larger opponent where she is coming in as a strong underdog. When you have the backbone to wrestle in the DWW War Zone, one signature match where you pulled off an upset is great, but three……

Let’s start with her battle against Ingrid.

Thankfully my memory is not all that I have to go by.

If you had asked me ten years later who would have won between the thicker and more experienced Ingrid verses Melanie, without thinking I would have blurted out Ingrid. Reality bites. Not the case. Ingrid is looking beautiful, curvy and sexy as ever but our thin darling Melanie controlled and dominated her from start to finish. Shocking.

Next up are the tall girls Denise and Susanne.

When they introduced these two beauties, I thought Denise was a lock to win.

Granted it was a titanic struggle but once again Melanie dominated. What intrigued me most was that she didn’t do it with clever moves and crunching body scissors which would have been expected from a smaller foe; she did it with pins. Denise is clearly a much larger woman so it was mesmerizing to watch this petite dynamo dominate our dark haired warrior with model looks and have her get pinned and counted out time after time.

Don’t get me started with Suzanne.

I’m certain our German Maiden thought she was going to defeat Melanie. You would never know since Susanne is as sweet and classy as they come. She was much taller than Melanie and the two would engage in a back and forth ground war for some time before Melanie’s grit and determination began to emerge.

One of the turning points was when she got Susanne in a vise like head scissors that reminded me of Susanne’s match against young Clara who showed our legend no mercy either. The tide began to turn and though Susanne would exact a submission, Melanie erotically dominated the larger very feminine German woman.

Once all the matches were over, little Melanie displays this Cheshire cat grin on her face and flexes her muscles, playing to the audience and trying to restrain her giggling.

You go girl!

The management at DWW capsulizes Melanie’s strengths, abilities and approach very well. “Another characteristic of Melanie was that she enjoyed not only overpowering her victim, but to defeat and humiliate them as well.

She enjoyed long pins most.

With her it was all about winning and showing her victim the better woman. This satisfied her. Losing was a disaster for her. The first match looks like a mismatch against a much taller and heavier Denise. But just look how Melanie manages to make the match competitive.

The match vs well known and experienced Susanne looks also like a mismatch for the much smaller Melanie. But it only took a short time for Melanie to learn the weaknesses of her opponent and to quickly figure out how to get the other woman to cry uncle.”

The great name research site, behindthename.com shares Melanie is a feminine given name derived from the Greek (melania), “blackness” and that from (melas), meaning “dark”. Borne in its Latin form by two saints: Melania the Elder and her granddaughter Melania the Younger, the name was introduced to England by the Normans in its French form Melanie.

Our other favorite naming site sheknows.com expands, “People with this name have a deep inner desire for love and companionship, and want to work with others to achieve peace and harmony.

They are excited by change, adventure, and excitement. They are dynamic, visionary and versatile, able to make constructive use of freedom. They fight being restricted by rules and conventions. They tend to be optimistic, energetic, intelligent, and to make friends easily. They may be changeable, restless, untidy, and rebellious.”

Melanie is another in a long line of beautiful Hungarian girls who competed at DWW.

Through our pages, FCI has traveled with you to Hungary many times so given that Melanie loves fruit cakes and peach juice, why don’t we travel there this time with a sweet tooth.

In case this is your first time traveling with us, let’s start with the basics.

Hungary, previously until 2012, the Republic of Hungary, is a landlocked country in Central Europe. It is situated in the Carpathian Basin and is bordered by Slovakia to the north, Ukraine and Romania to the east, Serbia and Croatia to the south, Slovenia to the southwest and Austria to the west. The country’s capital and largest city is Budapest. Hungary is a member of the European Union, NATO, the OECD, the Visegrád Group, and the Schengen Area.

Thank you Wikipedia.

Are you ready for some desert? We don’t want to stuff you so let’s look at two mouth-watering offerings that I think would make Melanie sit, fork in hand, at attention.

The respected and well written site easteuropeanfood.com explains like a waitress bringing her A game, “ Raspberry-Cream Roulade Recipe – Malna Piskotatekercs are simple sponge cake bases filled with jam, whipped cream or fruit (or all three) and rolled jellyroll fashion. This rich Hungarian Raspberry-Cream Roulade recipe is easier than it sounds.

Trifle Recipe – Somloi Galuska is known as somloi galuska (shom-loh-ee gah-LOOSH-kah), and is made with three different-flavored sponge cakes, pastry cream, raisins, walnuts, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream.”

I know I said two but I downed those too easily. Let’s go for one more, unless you’ve had enough? Okay. One more.

“Apple Meringue Pancake Torte Recipe – Almas Palacsinta is made with thin crepe-like pancakes stacked one on top of the other with apple filling in between. It’s kissed with a meringue topping and can be served warm or at room temperature.”

Yummy!

Do you see what Melanie has reduced me to?

I’m hungry for beautiful women like Melanie. I’m hungry for more women’s wrestling. I’m hungry for those great deserts. I’m really hungry to go to, well……..Hungary.

It’s amazing how popular our sweet Melanie still is. Her school girl good looks complimented her deceptively strong skillsets. I loved her great sense of humor watching her strut her stuff with those after victory poses. I loved her look. DWW found a gem in her. She made the Big Girls seem small.

One victory at a time, she reminded us that the smaller girls can stand tall.

Some may find other women’s wrestling sites erotic in nature. If you are offended by depictions of women wrestling in erotic situations, please exercise caution in visiting women’s wrestling sites.
