10 Things You’ll Never See In WWE Again

2. Bra & Panties

In 2015, WWE tripped over themselves to tell the world about a "Women's Revolution" that'd promote equality and set new heights for the female division. Ultimately, they've been true to their word. Workers like Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch and Shayna Baszler are one million times better than most who came before, and they're on par with their male counterparts.

Things weren't always so progressive.

Before WWE's mindset evolved to acknowledge women's wrestling as credible, it was common for the girls to rip one another's clothes off in eye candy attractions like 'Bra & Panties' or 'Gravy Bowl' matches. These circus-like treats were there for the red-blooded guys watching, and they're actually f'n embarrassing to look back on now.

Honestly, go ahead. Stick on one of these bouts in front of your mates and watch what happens. The hyper-sexualised, teenage wet dream boob-fests of old will leave everyone feeling awkward, and they've rightly been replaced by proper, hard-hitting wrestling. There's no way WWE will turn the clock back now.
