Chyna to me on a personal level was that she was an attraction, had beauty (after surgeries), personality, domineering presence, sexy in a bikini and lingerie, good enough wrestling skills (way better than Sable/Reno Mero) and was a pretty nice person in real life. Just being truthful and honest here but I did yank so many out when Chyna was smoking hot in the very late 90's/very early 2000's.
Hahaha, for me Chyna was the first real muscular woman I ever saw. I knew I was attracted to female strength ( very rare on tv those days). But I didn't have any access to bodybuilding magazines (mid 90s so no internet as well). Chyna was the first time I saw strength and kinda beauty together. Plus she was not just for show. She wrestled with men. I will always remember her for that
In the beginning, Chyna made my eyes pop out. She was easily as big as the men around her. After she lost the weight and got the facial surgeries, I became. . . . slightly less interested, but still hot for her. In the end, it seemed like privately she started believing her own hype. It's a pity AEW and other feds weren't around, she might have been able to go to one of them and turned her life around.
there was nothing like early chyna, that got me into women muscle. she had an incredible intimidating presence to her, and you felt like she was as strong as anyone on the roster. when they started to sexualize her in like mid 98, she slowly became less of a force(even though she was still booked as one), but for the first year and a half she was a freak(in a good way). sable was fine as a sex symbol. there weren't many women appearing on wwe tv at the time, and this was 98, when it'd take 10 minutes to download a photo. seeing her every week was still a big attraction, and i'd be lying if i said my pre teen self wasn't looking forward to that fully loaded ppv lol.
I'll say for me, back in the late 90s, it was Jacqueline, especially in the sea of white women, I was instantly attracted to her, attitude, the toughness, and of course her body. She was only 5'1", but you could tell she took strong and built, she felt much bigger than her small size suggested. Though I was disappointed how her WWF run turned out seeing her jobbed out and more of a bit player than a featured player,, but man her WCW run was great. Though something can be said about hey longevity in the business.
The NWA (National Wrestling Alliance) needs to be on TV as opposed to just the internet because folks are not talking about the Asher dominance of one Kamille Brickhouse. Over 440 days at NWA World Women's Champion with 24 successful title defenses (two of them took place this weekend). And she's not facing jokes either...it's been legit competiton, including Mickie James, Chelsea Green, Serena Deeb, Thunder Rosa, and just this past weekend Taya Valkyrie and Max the Impaler. No disrespect to the female champs on tv, but no one is doing it like Kamille these days. At this point, it's gonna take an injury or suspension or something drastic to take the title off of Kamille.

I freaking love Jacqueline. I didn't care that she was black. She was gorgeous, sexy, tough attitude, and she can put on a great match. Jacqueline is on my top ten all time best divas list.

Kamille's severely underrated. Haven't followed NWA in a while since they've been off of Youtube but I hope to see them manage to get a television deal or some form of weekly episodes without having to pay for it.
Her run should have been so much better, than what it was.
Some recent pictures of her.
She still looks great!
Don't get NWA, so maybe I'm talking out of turn, but for me the best women's division is Impact Wrestling. They often have TWO full women's matches in a show, they have women cutting promos, they DON'T cut to commercial in the middle of a match (picture-in-picture ain't doing it, guys) and best of all, they have wrestler/powerlifter Jordynne "almost as wide as she is tall" Grace!
I was worried that she was about to get all Shockmaster on us for a second.
Bianca Belair entered her first bodybuilding competition a couple of months ago doing the WBFF Atlantic City Pro/Am and won 1st in Wellness and 2nd in Fitness, making her a WBFF Pro!
Jordynne Grace is apparently entering the bodybuilding world later on this year.
Apparently Ivy Nile (real name Emily Andzulis) is contemplating about doing a bodybuilding show as well. With her look currently, it's gonna be either figure or women's physique if she does a show. I'm leaning towards women's physique as she loves to flex a lot and it will show off her physique more.

Where did you see this, I can’t find anything
Aliyah is getting super fit. Being Raquel's partner certainly had an affect!
While Jordynne Grace is getting well-deserved attention for her transformation, I want to give Tiffany Stratton some love here as well. She has been killing it ever since her return earlier this year. It's all but confirmed that she will be the next challenger for the NXT Women's Championship once NXT Roadblock comes to a close next week. After her match and promo, she did a nice double bicep to end her night. Tiffany was already pretty built before but it looks like she's added a good deal of muscle to her frame. If she can handle the pressure of being a top star, she is gonna be BIG for WWE.
