I think WWE should have a female World or WWE champion it would be a good storyline.
I mean you look at Trish, she was charismatic, over, sold merchandise and was a decent worker. So why should she be deprived the world title because of what is (or isn't) between her legs?
Yes, in a shoot a woman would not likley beat a man but wrestling is not a shoot. If we gave out titles based on who would win in a shoot, your favorite vanilla midgets like Rey, Malenko and Paul London would never win anything. And saggyboobs old men like Ric Flair would never win either.
If you can suspend your disbeleif for these, then you can do it for a woman beating a man.
Rey Mysterio beating Big Show is less beleivable than a woman beating Rey Mysterio.

It all depends on how it was done. In a somewhat believeable way I would be all for it. If it was some off the wall way, then I'd say no. With Awesome Kong coming in, she would make a believable woman to win the World or WWE title. She could stand toe to toe with the men and take them down (some of them at least) quite easily I would think.
All in all, sure I would enjoy it and think it would show anyone could grab the top title if done the right way.

yeah only halfway believable (and that's a bit of a stretch already) female world champ/wwe champ would be Kong right now I guess

It depends. If it was someone like Aloisa and she was over and could work, I'd buy it.

Kong winning the title from somebody like Rey would be 100% believable.

Nope, never happening.
It would kill any credibility the title and the guy she won it from had, and the 'E is more likely to offer my testicles a Legends contract then show men regularly punching and attacking women in their current media-sensitive mode.

I just say that I bought Chyna as IC Champ back in the day. I can't see this ever happening though.

I dunno if they should WIN the belt, but I would more than buy someone like Kong getting a shot as a novelty and then going on to have a very competitive 20 minute match with the champ and just coming short.

To be perfectly honest, I could buy into a woman pinning Miz clean.

No. Everyone thought Harvey Wippleman being Womens Champion was a total joke. I fail to see why the same reasoning doesnt apply here.

Rey Mysterio beating Big Show is less beleivable than a woman beating Rey Mysterio. Then lets have Kane challenge for the Divas title. Why should he be deprived of the title because of what is between his legs? He is more over, can work better and move more merchandise than any diva. |

If it was ever going to happen, it should have with Chyna. I would have bought that back then in a screw joby kinda way, with legit physicality behind it.
Currenty divas winning? They're own belt is an ugly butterfly and it's clear WWE dont care about them. I couldn't buy it now.

To be perfectly honest, I could buy into a woman pinning Miz clean. See, this is one of the reasons I'm not sold on Miz being the champion. The champion (in kayfabe) should be the toughest guy on the roster - someone like Goldberg or Austin. I know wrestling is fake of course, I'd just like a more legit WWE champion please. That's not to say we need to have a big badass champion everytime. I'd buy Rey, Edge, Punk and Christian as WWE champions over Miz even though they aren't neccesarily big tough guys but at least they seem like they can be the best and most skilled wrestler at any given time - the champion should be presented as the best wrestler in the company. Miz is neither the toughest wrestler nor the most skilled, but I suppose being a good talker is the most important aspect of a "superstar" these days. |

Well there was a point where they were in a perpetual loop with Cryme Tyme. That's literally the only team I can recall them feuding with while they were heels. Didn't she slam Vince at Wrestlemania 26? |

Just need good workers and then they need to not be treated like a joke.
So no, I don't think this is ever going to happen. And to everyone talking about how men should challenge for the Diva title, the World titles aren't gender specific.

I could see Beth Phoenix doing it. Didn't she hold her own against CM Punk at the RR?

Then they should be, it further ridicules the Divas division to ahve a woman step out of it to challenge for a mens title. And then what dio you do with the woman who wins a singles title? cant throw her back to the Divas, because she is a step ahead of everyone else. There is no reason to have a woman challenge for the World Titles. It isnt sexist to say so, its just common sense. the Divas division needs to be treated more respectably. |

How does it ridicule the divas division. That makes no sense. And what if it was Kong (who's bigger than Cena) or Aloisa (who's taller than the Undertaker)? What then? |
