10 WWE Heels Who Were Absolutely RIGHT!
6. Ivory (2000)
2000's Right To Censor group attempted to sanitise the WWF's product by deleting sexual characters like The Godfather and Val Venis. This was Vince McMahon's response to the Parents Television Council. They'd been hounding the fed for years about explicit content and raunchy programming.
RTC was Vince's storyline rebuttal, but there was more to it than meets the eye.
Ivory was booed for wanting women to move away from bra and panties matches towards serious wrestling. If people actually listened to her promos from around this time, then they'd see that she was ahead of the game: Ivory pre-empted the "women's revolution" narrative by calling for fair, equal treatment and a platform that bolstered talented female workers.
Naturally given the era, the WWF embellished this and cartoonified Ivory's words, but the core message was hard to argue against. At first, Ivory was only trying to look out for the division as a whole and get back to basics sans gratuitous gravy/jelly/mud-based attractions that played to a horny (predominantly teenage) male audience.
