''Wrestlicious'' is an American television show produced by Wrestling/JimmyHart and Lottery winner Jonathan Vargas who funded the show with his winnings. It's an all-women's wrestling show and it is purely SoBadItsGood. It is a show of over the top gimmicks (who each get introduced with a catchy little rap like the one above), pink ring ropes, cheesy segments and a commentator that let looses a HurricaneOfPuns in every match (while sounding eerily like Creator/StanLee). And yet, it features some of the top women wrestlers in North America including many Wrestling/{{SHIMMER}} stars. Its flagship show is ''Take Down'', which Viacom wished to pickup for a second season in 2011.
