Your favourite of the early 00's "wrestler" Divas

[Slingshot Suplay]

I loved Ivory, then again, I love older women.

[Old Baby]

Gail will always get my vote if she's anywhere on a poll, but Victoria was good too.

[Old Jack Burton]

What's with the quotes?

You not telling me Molly Holly and Ivory couldn't wrestle. You're crazy.

Missing a lot of people in this poll. Where's Mickie James? Where's Stephanie McMahon? Where's Chyna? Where's Torrie Wilson? Where's Nidia? Mae Young should be up there.

[LuchaBella]

Lita Lita and Lita. Oh and Victoria.

[Dat Dude]

Jazz and Gail Kim were my favourites. Didn't really care much about Trish or Lita.

[No Name is needed Bro Beans]

Trish always Trish

[Deleted]

Victoria was always my favorite. Really liked the character, and liked her balance of being able to play the "big girl" (that sounds awful, but like the equivalent of "big man") but not being a monster type that can never sell or anything. Her offense was great too, with the swinging sidewalk slam, the somersault legdrop, superkick, and definitely the Widow's Peak.

Molly, very much so, but I like all of them to varying degrees.

You've not really read my original post.

The quotes were not to say that these eight women couldn't wrestle, but the fact I was only including those who could which is why Torrie Wilson wasn't included. I used the term "wrestler" to seperate the Ivory's and the Molly's from the Torrie's, Jackie Gayda's and Stacey's. Stephanie was never an actual wrestler and Chyna was never part of the womens division. I never thought Nidia was any good as a worker and she was on Smackdown while these eight women were on Raw where the womens championship was. Mickie James was good but joined the roster just after what I view as the peak in the early 00's and by the time she'd joined Ivory, Molly, Jacqueline, Gail Kim and Jazz had either gone or were soon to leave whilst Lita was used more as a valet and Victoria was in that odd stable with Candice and Torrie.

Mae Young? No. Not at all.

[Mid-Carder]

I loved Trish, Lita, Molly and Ivory. Still four of my favourites ever.

[sunnytaker]

Gail was my favorite at the time. then trish of those listed. Ivory I had a bit of a crush on since her Tina Ferrari days on GLOW so i'll put her third.

[berlynwright]

Molly Holly and Victoria

[Martin: #TeamBella Treasurer]

I'd go with Trish or Jacqueline, I liked when they tagged too.

But, I'd rather watch a Torrie Wilson match in 2003 than a Gail Kim 2003/4 match anyday! With Lita gone, Torrie was WWE's most over Diva during that period by far, being in Playboy and on the cover for the video games, DVDs, magazines and on everything "SmackDown" branded.

Lita.

She was an amazing talent, both as a wrestler AND as a manager/valet. She went full-out in some tremendous matches, featured in some utterly fantastic segments, and changed what people thought a female wrestler could do in the company. Her stuff as part of the Hardy Boz' group, with Edge, against Trish, and elsewhere was unprecedented.

It will always bother me how WWE treated her on her way out the door.

Yeah, her exit bothered me too. And it's clear that WWE have (rare) remorse for it too. On the Trish vs. Lita Rivalries episode, Trish's exit was gloriously shown, Lita says something like she wishes she had a positive exit, and the screen just goes to black with the narrator saying Lita retired two months later, lol.

Lita got, arguably, the worst send-off of any female in WWE history.

Had she not come back for another run, I guess a point could be made for Sable. But everybody else either got a fairly nice finale or just disappeared quietly. Even Vickie (who I consider one of the best female performers (not wrestlers, but performers) in the history of the company) got a more dignified farewell.

And from what I remember, Lita gets an nice ovation immediately following the match at Survivor Series, until Cryme Tyme turn up and the crowd turns on her. Can't blame the crowd for getting into the segment, but still, I didn't like it.

[Big Poppa Pumpkin]

I agree with the guy who said Victoria seemed super cool. She was havin' fun before havin' fun was fun, Maggle. When they had that Diva Hallowe'en costume battle royal or whatever it was and she came out in the sumo suit while all the other divas were wearing stereotypical fetishistic costumes, I was like YES. THAT IS PERFECT.

[jp49er80]

I loved Lita.

Yes she pretty much always will be my favorite. One my my all time favorite RAW moments was in 2005 when she snapped on the divas after losing a bikini contest and ended it by punting Lawler in the 'nads
