Every WWE WrestleMania Women's Match - Ranked From Worst To Best

15. 10 Diva Tag Team Match (WrestleMania 26)

Mickie James Trish Stratus

On the surface, there's nothing obnoxiously wrong with the 'throw-em-all-out-there' WrestleMania 26's 10 Divas tag match, but it was still a colossal waste of talent in a manner WWE clearly deemed acceptable.

Freed from the shackles of the Playboy magazine deal and keen to wash away the stench of the Battle Royal omnishambles a year earlier, the company at least presented an actual wrestling match, but with only four minutes permitted and the lecherous Jerry Lawler on commentary, the search for credibility continued.

The presentation grossly undermined an underrated selection of performers working as hard as possible to transform the deeply embedded stereotypes of the genre at the time too, with Lay-Cool, Maryse, Beth Phoenix, Gail Kim and Mickie James and the hugely over Vickie Guerrero.

Mugging for the most part, Guerrero's attempts to escape her physical comeuppance from the babyface side were genuine highlights, but the finish was horribly botched as she failed to properly cover Kelly Kelly after the demeaning 'Hog Splash' tribute to her deceased husband Eddie.
