Re: Women in Pro Wrestling

I don't know.. At one point, I'd agree that the WWE was all about tits and ass, but since around 2002 or so, they've broken up their women into useless divas and ones whom can perform. Look at Trish, Lita, Victoria, Jazz.. and what have you. They were always given a spot on PPVs and Trish quickly became a role model for young girls.

I don't think it's fair to compare the two except when the two are merged together like when a Playboy girl who can't wrestle is given a shot at the women's title to help promote her magazine.. but thankfully, they never gave the title to Ashley, Christy, or Maria.. so as to not ruin the women's championship's reputation completely..
Even someone like Trish was hardly a role model. How many matches was she in where she had to strip another woman? How many matches of hers did The King talk about her puppies instead of putting over her in ring skill? Lita got over through some nice moves, but showing off of her body. As long as you do things like having King talk about a wrestler's puppies, you will never be able to generate too much respect for the women.
