Today, WWE's Women's division is the strongest it's ever been. Not only have recent NXT call-ups Sasha Banks, Charlotte, and Becky Lynch finally found their niches, but divas like Natalya, Paige, and Emma are more than capable of challenging them in classic contests.

The best worker in the division is former NXT Women's Champion Sasha Banks, who has won over millions of fans with captivating performances and is only, at most, a matter of months removed from claiming gold in WWE.

There aren't too many performers in wrestling, male or female, with the skill and charisma of Banks, and the fact that she's only 24 makes her talent all the more impressive.

Banks would be a great opponent for Trish Stratus, who lead the Women's division revival of the early 2000s. Even though Stratus was a model who was hired to be a manager, she worked tirelessly to improve, eventually becoming the centerpiece of the division.

Her matches with Jazz, Victoria, Lita, Molly Holly, and Gail Kim are still fondly remembered, even if they weren't technically as good as Banks's bouts with the likes of Charlotte, Becky, and Bayley.

A battle of the generations between Banks and Stratus would let legions of women's wrestling fans finally decide who's truly tougher... and maybe it's still possible for a future WrestleMania.
