Early shots of Penny.....she was involved in Judo prior to her wrestling career..


Penny was a real Tigress in the ring....applying a nice double toe-hold above..

....................
At the start Penny's career in wrestling she had to face tough June Byers...

And June at that time was the current NWA champion....

Penny sure got her share of bumps and bruises against June

But it wasn't clear sailing for June either.........because novice
or not, Penny was very capable of dishing out punishment also..
A body crush, a well placed knee and June is finding out
real quick all about the new comer..Penny Banner
