ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 OK...a question for people who like women's wrestling. You have had to remember the organization WOW in the past... My question: Would the WWE Women's Division benefit from someone from WOW joining their ranks? Perhaps Riot (who despite the grunge look I thought looked hot) comes in as a female heel? The reason I'm asking is (besides I have nothing better to do right now) because I'm trying to keep the division from becoming TOO stale. ...and because I know I'd mark out if Riot came out and powerbombed Lita for no reason.

jester 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 Riot ruled. She almost had that Austin vibe going (well, by WOW's low standards anyway). She was a heel everyone loved. I could see a few WOW wrestlers doing ok in WWE. Terri Gold, but she needs to revise her gimmick. Apparently Selena Majors and Thug trained everyone there, so they might be useful in that regard. I can't see them letting them wrestle though. They just don't have the looks. But the one thing that has to happen is LAWLER HAS TO SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT PUPPIES. I don't need Lawler to tell me that Trish has a nice rack. That I can see. They should concentrate on their skills and trying to put over whatever feud they have on.

{''({o..o})''} 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 While Riot did produce some of the best matches in WOW, her skill level is honestly far below Jackie Gayda and Nidia, which is quite frightening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. S£im Citrus 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 I wouldn't mind if WWE signed Lana Starr, Riot, and Terri Gold. I'd like to see Lana Starr get over using her WOW gimmick, but I doubt the WWE would make any effort to push her. Riot vs. Victoria would be interersting.

razazteca 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 They need more faces, not heels True, as it seems the only way to bring in new talent is to have the new wrestler beat up Trish for no reason. I do not want to see the WOW stars in WWE no or ever as the characters were too over the top with stupid gimmicks like the Farmers Daughter or Biker Bytch or Jungle Girl (Chuck Palumbo's sister) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 Jungle Girl (Chuck Palumbo's sister) O_O ...I didn't know Jungle Grrl was Palumbo's sister! ...does that give her a better chance of being hired? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MooreMark 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 I think Thug and her stable had a great gimmick. We definatly need faces mroe then heels..i'm thinking if Alexis ever gets used she should be feuding as a face with victoria. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Korgath Report post Posted October 29, 2003 We've got Daffney and Alexis waiting to be called up and at least one more blondie for Vince to have his way with in the form of Nikita from OVW. Not to mention that Jungle Grrl aka Ericia Porter is working her BUTT off in UPW (and they call up Nathan F-ing Jones instead?). I don't think she's Palumbo's sister, razazteca, where did you hear that? So why... WHY... are we even looking to the WOW girls at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Like those who spoke up earlier, most of the WOW girls I've HEARD were extremely green. Plus, WWE isn't even making use of all the women now, so whoever would be signed would just be sitting around doing nothing most of the time, or would get a big push for a while, then be depushed for more of Trish or Lita.

Cran Da Maniac 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Palumbo used to play a Jungle character on the Indies before his WCW stint, so I'm guessing that's where the crack about Jungle Girl being his sister comes from Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MooreMark 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 I've always wanted the WWE to bring in some of the great women's wrestlers of japan. Ofcourse they would get a stereotyped gimmick and angle and jerry lawler would continually call them men even though there workrate is 10 times better than lawler's has ever been. Oh how great it would be to see the likes of Aja Kong, Megumi Kudoh, Mariko Yoshida or even AKINO. Hell if they had treated Monster Ripper great in 95 surely she could have gotten something good out of Alundra Blayze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Except for Terri being a female Kurt Angle, I hope you don't mean in those gimmicks. Even as a fan of WOW, I admit the gimmicks were screwy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Lana Starr was the top talent in WOW, charisma wise. She was the PERFECT arrogant heel. And using her mirror as a weapon = awesome. Her feud with Ice (or something along the lines of that) was awesome. Ending with Lana shaving Ice's head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Erica Porter did have a tryout match about a year ago. Others, such as Danger and Riot were doing stunts/martial arts. And I've heard that Terri Gold got some boobs. But then, she's in Cali, so it's almost SOP I guess... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steviekick 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 I still want to see Daffney as Victoria's sister. That would so work. I think it's best that they keep the Women's division small. That way it's still a novelty act. I don't mean that in a bad way, but they don't necessarily draw. However, there segments usually have better ratings and i am a fan of them. I just don't want to see them overexposed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jester 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 I wouldn't want to take over most of the WOW gimmicks, which were lame in the extreme. Even Terri Gold's gimmick, a basic female Kurt Angle, was played STRAIGHT. We were supposed to buy her as an all-American face. She'd get laughed out of an arena if she tried that with WWE. And yes, though many of them were green as grass, I would still like to see them in WWE. Victoria and Riot would make a great heel tag team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
