10 Ways WWE Has Screwed Up Its Women's Division

Since WrestleMania 35, you can probably count the really good women’s storylines on one hand. Worse, they almost entirely involve the same wrestlers: Asuka, Sasha Banks, Bayley and maybe 1-2 others.

However, the past two years have been littered with disastrous angles and storylines across the women’s division. Whether it’s Lacey Evans as a serious contender, Alexa Bliss’ turn as child-like Fiend-Lite with a doll sidekick, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler arguing constantly without it leading anywhere, Carmella’s sommelier getting more screen time than she does, Asuka being the MVP of the past 15 months and now being treated like an afterthought, Nikki Cross being turned into an absolute joke, or any other crappy angle, it has been a horrid slide for WWE women.

Title feuds no longer feel important or like they’re getting the focus and attention they once did when Ronda Rousey and Becky Lynch were holding a championship. WWE called up two top prospects this year, and they botched the run-up to Bianca Belair’s SmackDown title win, and they’re currently butchering Rhea Ripley’s Raw title reign.

This isn’t to say that women’s wrestling is the only thing on the downslide in recent months, but it certainly has taken a huge hit since its “heyday” a couple of years ago.
