The women of World Wrestling Entertainment have been known to carry their weight (and the weight of their opponents) in the ring since the day that "The Fabulous" Moolah sold all rights for her Women's Championship to Vince McMahon. Since that day, we have seen the Divas perform dazzling acts of athleticism that include Top-Rope Frankensteiners and Diving Moonsaults and have watched as they displayed their technical prowess in the ring, sometimes rivaling (if not overshadowing) their male counterparts. However, there is one style of fighting that the Divas always do better than the Superstars, no matter if they are talented ring tacticians like Molly Holly or green-as-fertilizer like Eva Marie. That style of fighting is known simply as "catfighting." While Superstars are generally limited to punches and kicks when partaking in fisitcuffs, and generally avoid dirty tactics such as scratching or hair-pulling, the Divas have been known to toss all rules out of the window ... utilizing the art of trying to strip their enemy, tossing them around by their weaves and extensions, or using a majority of their environment around them as a weapon (Heaven forbid their should be a make-up station or craft services table nearby in these situations). This often makes the Divas' non-wrestling altercations all the more fascinating and memorable. However, catfighting isn't just limited to confrontations that devolve into physical violence, as stated by the Urban Dictionary. With that in mind, sharpen those claws Divas' fans as we take a look at WWE's eleven greatest catfights ever seen on television.
