Women Wrestling is a phenomenon that has captivated millions of fans around the world for decades. From the pioneers of the past to the superstars of today, women wrestlers have shown passion, power, skill and charisma in the ring and beyond. Here is a brief history of Women Wrestling and some of its most iconic moments and personalities.
The early days: The Fabulous Moolah and Mae Young
The origins of Women Wrestling can be traced back to the 1950s, when women’s wrestling was a novelty attraction in the male-dominated sport. The Fabulous Moolah was one of the first women to break into the business and become a star. She was a tough and ruthless competitor who held the NWA Women’s Championship for almost 30 years, defeating challengers from all over the world. She also trained many other women wrestlers, such as Wendi Richter, Leilani Kai and Judy Martin.
Mae Young was another pioneer of Women Wrestling, who started her career in the 1940s and wrestled well into her 80s. She was known for her fearless and outrageous antics, such as taking bumps from tables, ladders and chairs, and giving birth to a hand on live TV. She was also a mentor and friend to many younger women wrestlers, such as Trish Stratus, Lita and The Bella Twins.
The Golden Era: Wendi Richter and Cyndi Lauper
In the 1980s, Women Wrestling entered a golden era, thanks to the popularity of MTV and the Rock ‘n’ Wrestling Connection. Wendi Richter was one of the main stars of this era, as she was a charismatic and athletic wrestler who appealed to the young audience. She also had a famous feud with The Fabulous Moolah, who disguised herself as The Spider Lady and cheated to win back the title from Richter in a controversial match.
Another key figure of this era was Cyndi Lauper, the pop star who became involved in Women Wrestling through her friendship with Captain Lou Albano. She managed Wendi Richter in her matches against The Fabulous Moolah and Leilani Kai, and also participated in several angles and segments with other wrestlers, such as Roddy Piper, Hulk Hogan and Mr. T. She helped bring mainstream attention and credibility to Women Wrestling.
The Attitude Era: Sable and Chyna
In the late 1990s, Women Wrestling underwent a radical change, as it embraced the edgier and more provocative style of the Attitude Era. Sable was one of the most popular women wrestlers of this era, as she was a stunning beauty who also had a fierce attitude. She was involved in many memorable matches and moments, such as winning the Women’s Championship from Marc Mero, posing for Playboy magazine, competing in bikini contests and powerbombing Mark Henry.
Chyna was another groundbreaking woman wrestler of this era, as she was a muscular and dominant force who competed against both men and women. She was a member of D-Generation X, one of the most influential factions in history, and also won several championships, such as the Intercontinental Championship, the European Championship and the Women’s Championship. She also posed for Playboy magazine and appeared in several movies and TV shows.
The Divas Era: Trish Stratus and Lita
In the early 2000s, Women Wrestling entered a new era, where the term “Divas” was used to describe the female performers. Trish Stratus and Lita were two of the most prominent Divas of this era, as they were both talented and charismatic wrestlers who had a legendary rivalry that spanned several years.
Trish Stratus and Lita also paved the way for many other Divas to shine in Women Wrestling, such as Mickie James, Beth Phoenix, Melina, Michelle McCool and Natalya. They also inspired many future generations of women wrestlers with their passion and dedication.
