I am starting this thread with the full understanding that, especially due to the deal with Mattel, WWE isn't likely to have regular intergender matches on the show any time soon, save for some one offs like a Royal Rumble like they did with Nia Jax.
But if there is any for you, let's say you were given the choice of giving a woman on the current WWE/NXT roster a (hopefully less ego filled) Tessa Blanchard style chance at being WWE Champion (in whatever form it will take in the future). Who would you pick and why?
Right now on the roster the two most "credible" choices are probably Ronda Rousey and Rhea Ripley. Rousey because of what we have seen her do to men in the past, even in her debut match...and Ripley recently with her slamming Luke Gallows with ease and being a pain in the ass for any guys when she's at ringside.
Do any other ladies have the potential? Rodriguez or Doudrop if built up more? Someone quicker to be given something like Mysterio, but with a different body build and such?
And yes, I know intergender wrestling isn't everyone's thing, hence why I have the "if any" outlier.

See my profile picture. If there is ever going to be one, it's gonna be Charlotte.

XD I can see it being Seth Rollins vs. Charlotte Flair in both of their current characters. The reason they do this match specifically for the title is. Charlotte gets another over Becky, indirectly. Then we could even have Becky vs. Charlotte for the title at a Wrestlemania. I'm sure the fans could buy it too. |

TBH there's a few I think could possibly make it work. Bianca, Rhea, Ronda, Charlotte. Maybe Becky, Shayna or Asuka as well.
Raquel maybe in the future.

It's what made me think of her when I listing my names  |

I don’t follow enough anymore to be sure, but there was a window there Becky could have done it.
While Rousey is legit, I don’t think the audience would have bought it.
Becky was over enough to do it and not have it be shit on.

Becky was over enough to do it and not have it be shit on. I mean, Rousey was throwing around Triple H a bit in her debut match. But Becky at that time I could have seen people getting behind for such a run. Especially after taking the End of Days. |

I like Rousey, mind you, I haven’t seen any of this run, but I loved her original one. That said, she didn’t “get” wrestling during that run and while Rousey beating certain men makes perfect sense, I don’t think she would have been the right woman to lead the company. I think it’s “The Man” version of Becky. |

Ronda,Rhea,Charlotte,Shayna and Raquel are all not just tougher then most of not all the guys but just as if not stronger too so I think any of them could easily win the big titles,the problem is the company is to cowardly to even let that happen.You can't tell me in a fight the likes of Seth or Finn could ever best Ronda or Rhea? I truly believe the women are the future and need to be The main focus of the shows so giving them the main titles would be perfect. Ronda vs Brock would be a hell of a fight!

If she could be rebuilt character wise, I'd lump Doudrop in there as well...probably back under her previous ring name of Piper Niven. I've seen some of the shit she did before WWE. |

IYO would f***ing wreck shop on any of the midcard guys and some of the top tier main eventers if WWE ever did intergender wrestling which will never happen but in a metaphorical what if.  |

Asuka could probably be the easiest to get into position, she's always treated as a top tier threat among all the women and her style could easily translate to any larger opponents since her big moves are strikes and holds.
That said I don't see it happening, WWE have a hardline against intergender wrestling mostly due to outside forces like advertisers and networks.

I trust you mean this in kayfabe. Or has never met a woman. Even the average guy vs. a woman who works out. The guy is stonger. Sexual dimorphism is a real thing. No matter how bad ass you think a woman is. |
