A ring girl is the common name for the girl who enters the ring between rounds of a combat sport event such as boxing, kickboxing, or mixed martial arts, carrying a sign that displays the number of the upcoming round.
[edit] BoxingRing girls often, but not always, wear a swimsuit or bikini; however, some ring girls wear evening gowns. In some female boxing matches, ring girls are replaced by ring men dressed in tuxedos. [edit] Professional wrestlingIn professional wrestling, ring girls are attendants who remove the entrance gear (such as jackets, robes, and other clothing) and championship belts from the ring after a wrestler takes them off before his match. Throughout the 1980s, World Wrestling Entertainment employed ring girls known as the Federettes. Since its inception in 2002, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling has featured various independent female wrestlers and valets as ring girls. During the first year of Monday Night Raw, WWE featured traditional boxing-style ring girls who carried signs featuring various Raw-themed slogans in the ring between matches.
