Ive made reference to this angle today in the face/heel turn thread, but i figured it deserves its own topic. Was it just me or was this the most degrading thing they ever did to a female wrestler? I mean, they first turned her heel, ditching her "girl-next-door" image, then played up the fact that she was a virgin and this was apparently something to be mocked, then had chris nowinski claiming he was going to be the one to take her virginity, then there was the "granny panties" incident. Did they WANT her to leave? "Piggy James" was more dignified than this.

You left out the lame promo where Trish says to Molly that she has a "Big Ass".
No, it's just another case of WWE creative preferring to write cartoonish comedy characters/promos/angles rather than serious wrestling with talent that can actually wrestle.

"You could screen a movie on that ass!" Hell of a thing for a face to say to a normal-sized woman.

There is a woman in the indies- I believe she is "Rock n Roll" Buck Zumhoff's daughter- who is a heel, and her nickname is "The Virgin." I guess if it was played like CM Punk's "Straight Edge" lifestyle currently is it could work... but with Molly Holly, it just didn't work. If my daughter had been watching WWE at that time, I can honestly say it would be one of only a few things that would make me turn off Raw for her.

Plus Lawler constantly screaming, "MOLLY HOLLY'S A VIRGIN, J.R.! A VIRGIN!" every time she'd come out. Between that and the "PUPPIES!"shrieking I was worried Lawler had some form of Tourette's Syndrome

"You could screen a movie on that ass!" Hell of a thing for a face to say to a normal-sized woman. Not only that, but Trish's ass wasn't small either. Apparently the person that had the idea was Stephanie McMahon. Another woman with a sizeable rear end.

Steph's ass has its own congressman, and she's coming up with angles like that?

I heard that Stephanie ate all the food in the restaurant and they had to close down the restaurant.

Molly/Trish would've worked if Trish was a bitch heel and Molly was a lot more heavier and a face. I mean seriously, she wasn't fat. Her ass was the nicest in the company during that time. I've never known a guy who doesn't like an ass like hers

This angle would have maybe made some remote sense if they had played up Molly's character as an uptight, condescending prude who constantly preached to the diva's and the audience about morals and decency, setting a good example, always brush your teeth, etc. Trying to make fun of her looks really did not go over at all because she was and remains a genuinely attractive woman-and the fact that her behind could only be described as "petite" certainly added to the absurdity. And again, the whole "she's a virgin" thing would have made more sense if they had her play it up like she thought it made her better than everyone else in the locker room. Instead it came across as just plain cruel.

All right, I'll ask the question everyone is thinking: What's wrong with an attractive woman having a large ass? That makes her hotter.

The whole "Molly's got a fat ass/granny panties" thing was just horrible, horrible tv. Genuinely hated it.

That was a weird angle alright... "Boo! Boo to that fat assed virgin!!" Attitude was a weird time though, the heels were the ones who weren't drunk or degrading themselves.

I wonder what would happen if a wwe employee got involved in a sex scandal, would they suddenly push molly as a face like they did cm punk after the drug scandal? "See, we have a wrestler who doesnt have sex!"

That whole angle was probably my least favorite angle in WWE history.....even worse than Katie Vick.
I remember going to a house show in New Orleans (that was horrible...main event was HHH/Steiner) and me and some friends chanted "she's still hot" when she came out.

I just dislike the fact that she wanted to turn face but they wouldn't let her. She wasn't getting much of a push, she always worked well, so why not let her have some fun if you weren't seriously going to do anything with her? I thought she made a nice face when she was Mighty Molly/ early Molly Holly days.
