Throughout the late 90s and early 2000s, it was not uncommon to see intergender tag team matches, with women in the ring at the same time as men. Chyna of course made history, regularly competing against men and even winning the Intercontinental Championship. Beyond simple in-ring competition, it was not unheard of to see a woman being outright beaten by a man. Witness one of the worst incidents, Lita being decimated by Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin, no less:Today it has been ages since weve seen a man deliberately hit a woman on WWE television. Sure, we saw Chris Jericho accidentally strike Shawn Michaels wife and Big Show inadvertently knock AJ Lee over. One of the last deliberate violent acts against a woman was in 2009, when Randy Orton DDTd Stephanie McMahon. That was treated as a horrific act (as were the other two mentioned). WWE has done a dramatic turnaround from the early 2000s to today regarding violence against women, which is part of why even tacit approval of someone like Mayweather as he is under increased scrutiny for domestic abuse is in poor form.
