Amy Dumas, Gail Kim And Christy Hemme Announce New KAYFABE Kickstarter Project

A new pro-wrestling project known as KAYfABE is in the works (or it will be if the funds can be raised) which will set out to create " impactful, female centric, professional wrestling content."

The one-hour show is described as being "an edgy, racy, cinematic television series about a female led professional wrestling start up," and "a dramatization and collection of female stories inspired by real life events."

Heading up the project is WWE Hall of Famer Amy Dumas, aka Lita, multi-time Women's Champion Gail Kim, and wrestler turned ring announcer Gail Kim. They'll be joined by the likes of Chavo Guerrero, Jimmy Jacobs, and many more.

Dear Kayfabed,

You have either stumbled into our world or you are a hard-wired rabid member of the sub-culture that is professional wrestling. As a fan you are the engine that drives the most unique and engrossing form of entertainment on the planet. Kayfabe is a professional wrestling term derived from carnival lingo that means... to keep secret. Being that we want to keep it REAL, it is the perfect name for our show!

KAYfABE is a one hour professional wrestling show that is 50 percent story and 50 percent in ring action. It is an edgy, racy, cinematic television series about a female led professional wrestling start up. This show is a dramatization and collection of female stories inspired by real life events. AND YES, this is still at its core, a wrestling show with world-class, in-ring action! But, in this unique narrative, we take you behind the curtain, into the locker room and outside of the arena.

So what does that even mean? What are you watching? Why are these stories worth a shit!? Because we present them with no filter! You get drama, passion, humor, love, anger, frustration and real life challenges. Plus, we address the 800-pound elephant in the room, and in the current landscape of the world... abuse of power, manipulation, injury, addiction, inequality and the euphoric high of pursing your life’s passion that clouds every damn decision. So who are "we"?

We are first and foremost storytellers. A collection of wrestling insiders… outsiders… outcasts… enthusiasts and renegades. Comprised of current and former wrestling talent, writers, producers, directors, cinematographers and production talent from the entertainment and professional wrestling industries. A synergistic DREAM team if you will. At the heart of this team is Gail Kim, Amy Dumas and Christy Hemme…. the first female talent in professional wrestling to move behind the camera as producers, agents and on the creative writing team.
