Professional wrestling career


Grable trained for her professional wrestling career with The Fabulous Moolah in her training school in Columbia, South Carolina.[1][2] She debuted in 1953 using the name Peaches Grable.[1] Moolah's female trainees worked in Boston under promoter Paul Bowser, and in Boston, Grable and Moolah were involved in a feud.[2]


She wrestled in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) territories through the 1950s and the 1960s. In September 1956, a battle royal was held to determine the new NWA World Women's Champion, but lost to long-time rival The Fabulous Moolah.[3] On September 20, 1958 Grable made an appearance as a contestant on the popular television show What's My Line?.[1] The episode became famous in part because of the highly risque banter from guest panelist Groucho Marx and consequent malapropisms by regular panelist Dorothy Kilgallen and host John Daly.


Even though she retired in the late 1960s, Grable's last in-ring work occurred in Superstar Wrestling in 1974.[1]


On March 31, 2017, Grable was posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as a part of the Legacy wing.



Personal life


Grable was the youngest of six children, including four brothers and one sister.[1] She was a tomboy who liked fishing, hunting, and sports.[1] She also wrestled at Grand Junction High School.[1] Her family later moved to Florida, where Grable became interested in the circus.[1] She was employed at Ringling Brothers Circus as an acrobat for six months, deciding she would rather wrestle after falling off a high wire.[1]


In the late 1960s, Grable retired from wrestling after marrying a serviceman.[1] Grable returned to school, graduating in 1978.[1] She was then employed as a nurse's assistant in a home for veterans.[1] One of her daughters works as a wrestler under the name Debbie Grable.[1]


Grable died on May 11, 2008 after living with diabetes, strokes, and Alzheimer's.[1]
