WWE: 10 Most Inappropriate Stipulation Matches Ever

2. Bra And Panties Match

Bra and Panties matches were awesome if you were a man between the ages of 18 and 35 during the first six years of the new Millennium. Smoking hot women would take to the ring with the only purpose being to rip and tear at their opponent's clothing. Eventually, one of the beautiful young ladies would be left in nothing but their bra and panties, to the delight of the testosterone-fueled fans. At the time, it was a great way to utilize the women on the roster who were not as skilled between the ropes as their fellow Divas. Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler were wildly popular but neither was going to mix it up with Jazz or Molly Holly in anything resembling a good, traditional wrestling match. So WWE Creative crafted stories and devised rivalries centered around gimmick bouts such as the Bra and Panties match. History is not kind to the match type, and rightfully so. The Bra and Panties match was definitely a product of the times. At one point, it was okay to emphasize T&A but today's world is different. People want strong female characters, women who can stand up for themselves and do the things that the guys do in the ring. Fictional characters such as Katniss Everdeen from the Hunger Games series are popular because the empower girls and young women to be themselves, to be strong and to stand up in the face of adversity. They do not use sex to their advantage and they do not trot around in their lingerie to sell a few more DVDs or movie tickets. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x10y5up_trish-stratus-vs-stacy-keibler-bra-panties-match-paddle-on-a-pole_na Those matches were great fun for the male portion of the audience but they were demeaning to women. While some of the lesser-talented women in today's WWE would benefit from some sort of gimmick match to help them get over, Bra and Panties matches are not the way to do it.
