WWE: 12 Great Wrestlers Totally Screwed By Comedy Gimmicks
10. Victoria
Lisa Marie Varon, better known to WWE fans as Victoria, is one of the greatest female talents WWE has ever had. It's just too bad she wasn't booked that way at the end of her WWE run. Once all the other Attitude Era women were gone, Victoria was relegated to comedy role, often wearing ridiculous outfits and booked to look foolish. Why anyone in WWE thought taking one of the only talented wrestlers in the Divas division and turning her into a joke was a good idea is a mystery worthy of a monologue from Robert Stack. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNUBWe3j9zA TNA used her a little better in her early days with the company, but even they lost sight of what made Victoria special and booked her poorly. Now she runs a successful restaurant in Chicago called The Squared Circle, but her legacy will end up with her being known as one of the toughest women to ever lace up a pair of boots.
