I mean, I was an adult when she was on TV originally. So she's not a childhood fantasy for me. But there is still definitely a fantasy going on there. Lol.
I liked Trish well enough back in day, but the work rate I'm used to now, she just can't keep pace with the other women around her. She's still in my top 10, but not really my 5. I also didn't really like her program with Becky that much. Just was the least interesting story going when it happened. Especially in a time with the fallout of Cody vs Roman 1, Judgement Day getting their boots dug in, and everything else that was going in at the time
Not even in the top 10.
She only got so much exposure during her era because she was hot, blonde, and had big fake tits.
She was awful in the ring, and even worse on the mic. Lita was the best performer of the era by a mile.
I'm an older guy. Been watching since 94. I love Trish. She has a strong claim that she is the greatest based off what she did, how she did it, when she did it and what she inspired but she's not the best to ever do it.
Becky, Charlotte, Bayley, Sasha, Rhea, and Asuka all have,with a clear gap, better in ring ability and better character/gimmick work. The latter is almost completely due to the fact they never had to pretend to sleep with the boss or do other skanky things to the level that Trish did. But the fact remains that she is no longer the best.
Idk if shes the goat but shes definitely in the running for the best female wrestler of all time cuz she was good even by modern standards let alone the standards of her time, but putting them all on even ground theres a few woman today that rival her not to mention she had her contemporaries that were just as great obviously in lita and mickey james
I think Trish has a strong claim to GOAT. She is for sure in rarified air. There are likely only a handful that could argue against her.
I think Lita could potentially dispute her claim. I thought Lita had slightly better character-work than Trish, but Trish had a better in-ring career even if they were about equal in work-rate.
I think Chyna has a real claim to GOAT. She was so fucking believable. She was wrecking guys. It was a shame she was done so dirty by the WWE.
While I personally think Michelle McCool is a step below Trish, Lita, and Chyna; I think it's feasible to make an argument for her. She was a great worker she worked hard to set the groundwork for the women's revolution. I don't think her character-work or ring-work was as good as the three mentioned, but she was an exceptional talent that I think an argument could be made for her. I don't think anyone besides those women can have a shot at GOAT until this next generation can finish their careers. Future GOATs are Becky, Charlotte, and Rhea.
Out of context, maybe.
In context for how it was said, which was after she turned on Becky Lynch, 100% fair. She was a heel explaining to the crowd why she turned heel. The character was someone with a big ego looking to prove to herself that she could run with the people today now that women are treated seriously. Because to Trish, she was someone who came out as eye candy, doing some incredibly degrading things and had to earn a spot being treated as an actual wrestler.
Yeah it's not hard to imagine how tiresome it is to have weird middle-aged dudes all saying "I had SUCH a crush on you as a kid" whenever you go out in public.
She must have thought she was Kharma for a second
Cause to me when I think of the diva’s wrestling era I think of Kharma
She wasn’t there in WWE long but god damn did she dominate
My memories of Chyna are that it was cool to have her wrestle dudes and be legitimately scary, but that's about it. I can't say she was as iconic and impactful on women's wrestling as all the other great women that have come in the years since.
Every woman does owe her a lot for helping women's wrestling characters be taken seriously for something other than being arm candy. She's *somewhere* on the all-time greats list, just not number one.
I think she may need to flip the positives and negatives there. Whether she likes it or not, she probably was brought back for nostalgia. And I'm sure she is many fans childhood fantasy.... as for greatest of all time - well, there are plenty of other women wrestlers that would probably disagree. She may be one of the top women's wrestlers - but the top is a bit of a stretch.
Much respect to Trish.. but Chyna is the Goat Female wrestler.
Edit:
It’s not about nostalgia either.
Chyna was wrestling men while all the other women at time were only good for showing off their fake body.
Big boobs and nice cheeks don’t make anyone a Goat of WRESTLING!
Respectfully disagree. Big and muscular =/= good.
And maybe I’m an asshole but being dead doesn’t give you a boost in your historic skill.
Compare her to the strongwomen on the roster now and she’s mid at best.
Chyna was the Nia Jax of the attitude era. Nostalgia just clouds people’s judgement.
I didn’t even mention why my opinion was Chyna and yall went ahead and assumed it was due to nostalgia. Lmaooo yall disagree with an opinion and run with your own reasonings behind someone else’s opinion! Lmaooo it’s okay to disagree bro.
I’ll have you know, I’m not arguing your Chyna comment, but simply agreeing with him that people have a hard time with nostalgia and stars that have passed away. Chyna had it all, the switch up in her charisma when she got with Eddie too 🔥🔥
It isn’t about stupid nostalgia, Chyna was a good wrestler, compared to the women wrestlers if today? She isn’t as developed, but then they hardly let her wrestle. She also broke through the glass ceiling. While her peers were doing bra and panty matches.
Facts!! Chyna was actually performing.. while the other women were just showing the ass and tities. Y’all are thinking with your hormones. Stop it. Lmaooo
And it has nothing to do with nostalgia. Lmaoo
…you mean Chyna wore dominatrix gear to the ring for manoeuvrability?
Cmon man. The women of that era did also wrestle, obviously the aesthetic was different but I recall Jacqueline being physically dominant too.
By comparison, Chyna was more physically present than the women in her locker room, yes. She was a body builder.
But as a **performer**?
She would be a mid card performer today. Rhea, Bianca, Jade Cargill - three big women who are also able to put on one hell of a show.
I’m not saying don’t by a Chyna fan dude but she was not the g.o.a.t
Edit:
> I didn’t even mention why Chyna was my opinion
You still haven’t.
Dude lmfaoooo… the black “dominatrix” gear was wrestling attire. What would be different if the material was cloth, instead of leather? That shit is literally irrelevant.. due to the fact that she was WRESTLING in it and not just walking to the ring, to show her body, like all the other women at the time were doing!
Much respect to all the female wrestlers you just mentioned.. but If it wasn’t for Chyna, none of the names you just mentioned would of even gotten a chance at wrestling. Period.
Before Chyna, female wrestling was a joke.
I understand that she might have not been as great as a performer as the women of today.. but that’s evolution of sports! Hulk Hogan, the rock, Austin, flair, undertaker, Shawn Michaels, bret hart.. etc couldn’t do half of the athletic shit that’s done in the ring today.. that means those guys would be Mid card today?
Also.. who the Goat is an opinionated question..
your opinion is YOUR opinion… as well is mine.
Chyna is the Goat female Wrestler. This wouldn’t even be a question if it wasn’t for Chyna. If it wasn’t for Chyna we would be saying the best female wrestler was the fabulous Moola and shit. Alondra Blaze and shit Lmaooo
Respectfully.
They could all, well maybe not Hogan, do athletic shit. Bret Hart and Austin were fantastic technical wrestlers when given their moment to shine, Michaels could showboat and do the flippy shit when his back allowed for it.
So no, not quite the same.
Chyna, and I grew up with her on my TV, was a big woman, not really a wrestler in the same regard.
She was basically, the female version then of what Khali was. Look at her match with Lita. It’s very heavily sided towards Lita making Chyna look strong without much *wrestling* on the part of Chyna.
I’m not saying she was not important to women’s wrestling, but I am arguing she wasn’t the goat
Hogan is the biggest name in wrestling. I didn’t even have to mention those other guys.. but Austin broke his neck and could only do basic shit when he became a star. Bret Hart is amazing and is in my top 5 but the technical wrestling he provided wouldn’t fit in todays product. Shawn Michaels did basic elbow drops and backflips.. that looks like toddler stuff compared to todays top rope game… yet all of these guys were superstars for their time and now legends!! The key word is “for thier time”… as any form of sports evolve.. it will make the people of the past look incomparable. Look at basketball.. football, amateur wrestling etc.. the athletes of today.. look like they’re super human compared to the athletes before them.
I respect your argument.. it’s understandable.. but I’m my opinion.. Chyna is the Goat because she made the most of what was offered to her, for her time.
Respectfully.
Well, she was in fact all 3 of those things at the same time. She was Nostalgia act to get Zoey Stark over, She was 100% my childhood fantasy (see PS 1 game Smackdown 2 loading screen for more information) and she does have an extremely solid claim to be the GWOAT
She's great. But even in Rhea's short time I think she has taken the title of greatest of all time in the women's division. Trish is definitely one of the best, but between Rhea, the Four Horsewomen, Chyna, and Lita? She has some tough competition.
Bitch ur trash Lita was better Victoria was better hell The Asian lady or Jaquelin was better you are and forever will be the cunt who Vince McMahon made bark and strip on camera hell Stacy Kiebler was better lol
Tbh .
Maybe not .
She flourished because others like Natalya made her look good .
And for me , in every aspect it was Chyna who shattered the glass ceiling. Not her.
Trish is one of the greatest WWE wrestlers period, not only women's greatest wrestler. Women's wrestling moved forward because of Trish and Lita. Trish was just in the ring last year. She's a legend.
Trish is the female Rock. Both nostalgia acts now. Both not great in ring anymore and not the best in the ring compared to their peers during their own time and definitely not now. But both have cases for respective goat.
Honestly, she wasn’t even the best before that. Victoria, Beth Phoenix, Molly Holly, Jacqueline, or even further back…Luna, Medusa, Sherri Martel - all better. I think Mickie James surpassed her as well. Can’t deny Trish was the face of the women’s division during her time though.
I dont fully agree but I think she's definitely earned her keep to be up there, from everything she went through in the attitude era to making a name for herself in the ruthless agression era, and then proving she could hang with the best now.
Not even close Lmfaooooo she’s like hulk hogan without the drama, iconic for being one of the first to do something but not actually the best at it, I’d take almost 50% of the female roster today over her in ring and on the mic, but thank you Trish for everything you’ve done to allow these ladies to bloom today.
She was terrible with Test and for a long time literally just there for the breasts.
Revisionism won't get you anywhere, there were way better wrestlers at that time. Once she got upto speed she was good. But GOAT? Lol
Above Chyna, Beth, Jazz, Charlotte and the like? 😂
I feel like you must have her confused with Stacey Keibler. I remember her with Test much more than Stratus. And as someone who actually watched the attitude era live, I don’t remember anyone on the planet thinking Chyna was a good worker
I don't think she's the greatest of all time.
I do think her last run was the absolute best work of her career, and if she was around regularly now she would surpass a huge amount of talented people.
I’m in the middle of watching old episodes of Raw from 98 until I get bored. I’m mid 2000 now and Trish has just popped up. It’s unbelievable how much better she looks now than she did then and she looked great then!! She even looks healthier now. A great thing about watching Trish from the start is you can see how much better she gets match by match!! She was awful when she started then she ended up main eventing Raw!!
Nothing but respect for one of the women who taught an entire generation that women could actually wrestle but she’s about mid tier compared to the current roster.
She can claim one of the “most popular” of all time. SEVERAL women, not just ones in WWE have eclipsed her ring skills since her original run everyone was so impressed with. You were better than what had come before, but now we’ve come too far.
She was the goat, Becky passed her though and there is little to no doubt Rhea will become the Goat one day. Also I don’t care what she says she was in fact my childhood fantasy
Probably is the GOAT I mean look at what she did for women’s wrestling you could argue maybe Lita and Beth but Trish is most likely the GOAT Becky isn’t there yet neither is Charlotte and people saying Rhea are delusional she’s been on the main roster for 3 years 🤣
She is better in-ring in the last year than she has ever been in the last 20! She’s not the most talented, she’s not the best on the mic, she’s not the most over, but she is most definitely the most iconic representation of a female WWE wrestler
She is definitely the greast of all time....childhood fantasy. And the fact that this woman is still hot AF cements it. lol. A great women's wrestler she was not.
For me the greatest is Natalya, match quality and longevity make her head and shoulders above the rest,
If I had to pick top 4 or five all time, Mickie James, Trish stratus, Chyna and natalya, all four were pioneers of their own style in wrestling, Mickie was the best promo and story teller, Trish was the best draw, chyna was the first strong woman who was allowed to work with the male talent and natalya aside from being technical has been having good to great matches for the longest, started with fcw in 2003 and still in the mix all the time she was leading the charge of the womens revolution giving Charlotte, Ruby riot and Sasha banks their best matches at nxt
He hasn't been around for a long time isn't good on the mic and is average at best in ring, has no ability to tell a story in a match and can't get over she is like Owen Hart, has all the skill but predictable and dependable so easily overlooked in the goat debates
Natalya? I can’t name a single stand out Natalya match. I fully respect her longevity and can appreciate she’s a solid, safe worker. But her matches are pretty average every time
She gave Charlotte and Becky their best matches on nxt and elevated them, gave Ruby riot her best matches and feud to date, had Beth phoenix's best run, was holding the line for actually talented female wrestlers from the end of the Mickie James era till the four horse women rose to prominence
Great heel promo.
And like all great heel promos, it was 20% reality, 80% delusion.
She was a nostalgia act (with some mileage left), she was many's childhood fantasy, she is NOT the GoaT (by a long shot).
Disagree
Nope.
She will always be my fantasy
She can be 3 things at the same time. Yes, I know this was a work.
I mean, she absolutely was my childhood fantasy, so...
Alundra Blaze back in the day but in my opinion the women didn't get the recognition (or tv time) they deserved.
Pizza Hut is the greatest of all time lol .. she was our child hood fantastic
Thank You Trish
Trish matches aren’t that good but ppl liked gassing her up back then.
She’s the main event in many yank off scenarios.
No. She’s definitely my childhood fantasy 😂
I mean, I was an adult when she was on TV originally. So she's not a childhood fantasy for me. But there is still definitely a fantasy going on there. Lol.
Yes, 100% greatest WWE female wrestler of all time.
She's all the above and I appreciate her for it all
Come back in 10 years when Tiffy time is the greatest of all time
Meh
We are the same age. That is the only reason she isn't my childhood fantasy
Like wine🍷🥰
Well sadly her boos are fake
Real or fake they still are great
Hell yeah 🙏🏽🙌🏽
I preferred Lita back in the day wrestling wise. Mickie James was a better wrestler also.
Not the greatest wrestler of all time, no, but certainly at least ONE of the greatest female performers of all time.
I liked Trish well enough back in day, but the work rate I'm used to now, she just can't keep pace with the other women around her. She's still in my top 10, but not really my 5. I also didn't really like her program with Becky that much. Just was the least interesting story going when it happened. Especially in a time with the fallout of Cody vs Roman 1, Judgement Day getting their boots dug in, and everything else that was going in at the time
Yes them boobs got me through times
Wrong on point #2
Look JR puppies!
Not even in the top 10. She only got so much exposure during her era because she was hot, blonde, and had big fake tits. She was awful in the ring, and even worse on the mic. Lita was the best performer of the era by a mile.
Downvote me all you want. I’m a 1000 percent right about why she was popular, and her shortcomings as a performer.
Trish cemented her legacy with that steel cage match vs Becky.
That match was incredible. Definitely one of the best matches of last year IMO.
I'm an older guy. Been watching since 94. I love Trish. She has a strong claim that she is the greatest based off what she did, how she did it, when she did it and what she inspired but she's not the best to ever do it. Becky, Charlotte, Bayley, Sasha, Rhea, and Asuka all have,with a clear gap, better in ring ability and better character/gimmick work. The latter is almost completely due to the fact they never had to pretend to sleep with the boss or do other skanky things to the level that Trish did. But the fact remains that she is no longer the best.
Definitely childhood fantasy. Now a grown ass adult and still a fantasy
It’s a close call but Trish is definitely one of the best ever 😘🥰💋!!
Absolutely not
I think it’s a great angle.
Well, she is a nostalgia act,and she is a fantasy, but she is the also the best. thank u trish
I disagree. Stacy, Lita, and Victoria are all better.
Greatest of all time yes childhood fantasy yes
Nostalgia act? No. Childhood fantasy? Yes. Greatest of all time? Yes, and that isn't me just simping. Agreed.
Always wears a black thong
I mean, multiple things can be correct at the same time.
I’ve got news for her, heel or face she’s my childhood fantasy
Nope
“The “biggest” star of all time”
Tell that to my right hand 🤣
Who’s to say she can’t be both?
Well, she's definitely my childhood fantasy, so I'll have to say false
Y’all think with the head in your undies.
Wrong Santino Marella is the greatest of all time.
Idk if shes the goat but shes definitely in the running for the best female wrestler of all time cuz she was good even by modern standards let alone the standards of her time, but putting them all on even ground theres a few woman today that rival her not to mention she had her contemporaries that were just as great obviously in lita and mickey james
Thank you Trish for being all of those things
Correction: she is my childhood fantasy and now the MILF of my dreams
I think Trish has a strong claim to GOAT. She is for sure in rarified air. There are likely only a handful that could argue against her. I think Lita could potentially dispute her claim. I thought Lita had slightly better character-work than Trish, but Trish had a better in-ring career even if they were about equal in work-rate. I think Chyna has a real claim to GOAT. She was so fucking believable. She was wrecking guys. It was a shame she was done so dirty by the WWE.

No i hate the plastic bitch
Nikki Bella punching the air rn
Out of context, maybe. In context for how it was said, which was after she turned on Becky Lynch, 100% fair. She was a heel explaining to the crowd why she turned heel.

Because to Trish, she was someone who came out as eye candy, doing some incredibly degrading things and had to earn a spot being treated as an actual wrestler.
Best ever!
trish one of the greats. she’s probably sick of all these men telling her that she was their childhood fantasy, like she’s some object.
Idk her enhancing herself seems to be in contradiction
Yeah it's not hard to imagine how tiresome it is to have weird middle-aged dudes all saying "I had SUCH a crush on you as a kid" whenever you go out in public.
She must have thought she was Kharma for a second Cause to me when I think of the diva’s wrestling era I think of Kharma She wasn’t there in WWE long but god damn did she dominate
My answer is simple no.
She’s no Moolah!
Why not all 3
Not even close lol
In kayfabe, absolutely not. Out? Lolno
Never heard of her. So not the greatest of all time.
LMAO
Please stop calling Chyna the goat. She was hot for a minute but was an average worker at best.
Clit the size of a thumb
My memories of Chyna are that it was cool to have her wrestle dudes and be legitimately scary, but that's about it. I can't say she was as iconic and impactful on women's wrestling as all the other great women that have come in the years since. Every woman does owe her a lot for helping women's wrestling characters be taken seriously for something other than being arm candy. She's *somewhere* on the all-time greats list, just not number one.
She was stiff and hard to work with in the ring.
I think she may need to flip the positives and negatives there. Whether she likes it or not, she probably was brought back for nostalgia. And I'm sure she is many fans childhood fantasy.... as for greatest of all time - well, there are plenty of other women wrestlers that would probably disagree. She may be one of the top women's wrestlers - but the top is a bit of a stretch.
Two truths and a lie
No That’s reserved For The Man
Top 5… and that does not include Lita (who, I don’t think, was ever good as a wrestler due to the haphazard and weird way she moves here body).
She’s all three and nothing wrong with that.
Two things can be real
Facts. And good lawd i need trish
Trish is top 5 IMO, but the greatest female wrestler to me is Mickie James.
Yeah she’s pretty great .
OMG her boobs are perfect
They are fake
Much respect to Trish.. but Chyna is the Goat Female wrestler. Edit: It’s not about nostalgia either. Chyna was wrestling men while all the other women at time were only good for showing off their fake body. Big boobs and nice cheeks don’t make anyone a Goat of WRESTLING!

She can be all 3.
She’s at least two of those
Well, she was in fact all 3 of those things at the same time. She was Nostalgia act to get Zoey Stark over, She was 100% my childhood fantasy (see PS 1 game Smackdown 2 loading screen for more information) and she does have an extremely solid claim to be the GWOAT
Jesus Christ her jawline is nuts. She may have more facial definition than handsome squidward
She's great. But even in Rhea's short time I think she has taken the title of greatest of all time in the women's division. Trish is definitely one of the best, but between Rhea, the Four Horsewomen, Chyna, and Lita? She has some tough competition.
Bitch ur trash Lita was better Victoria was better hell The Asian lady or Jaquelin was better you are and forever will be the cunt who Vince McMahon made bark and strip on camera hell Stacy Kiebler was better lol
So edgy
Trish is everything , just mmmhmMm
I'm sorry, I missed what you said. The balloons lol
Trish walked so our women today could run.
Nahh
Tbh . Maybe not . She flourished because others like Natalya made her look good . And for me , in every aspect it was Chyna who shattered the glass ceiling. Not her.
Trish is one of the greatest WWE wrestlers period, not only women's greatest wrestler. Women's wrestling moved forward because of Trish and Lita. Trish was just in the ring last year. She's a legend.
She is not the greatest but DEFINITELY in top 10 greatest of female wrestlers.
Oh Trish, youre still a childhood fantasy. Not mine, but someones.
Trish is the female Rock. Both nostalgia acts now. Both not great in ring anymore and not the best in the ring compared to their peers during their own time and definitely not now. But both have cases for respective goat.
Gotta say no
She’s up there but def not the best. I actually think even for her era, Lita was always better. She deserves HOF someday though
Why can't she be all three?
Nope.
No. She's by far the best of the pre-women's revolution, but Becky, Charlotte, Bayley, Sasha, Rhea are all above her now imo.
How did u write this and not even mention Asuka tho?
Honestly, she wasn’t even the best before that. Victoria, Beth Phoenix, Molly Holly, Jacqueline, or even further back…Luna, Medusa, Sherri Martel - all better. I think Mickie James surpassed her as well. Can’t deny Trish was the face of the women’s division during her time though.
She is the Goat and anybody above 30 knows this.
I dont fully agree but I think she's definitely earned her keep to be up there, from everything she went through in the attitude era to making a name for herself in the ruthless agression era, and then proving she could hang with the best now.
Nah I don’t agree and icon sure but not the Goat
Nostalgia. She is a better wrestler now then she was back then though.
No
Before the four horsewomen's put the division on the spotlight I don't even know who the f is Trish Stratus
Literally the most googled women at one point…you are just young.
Were you not a WWF/WWE fans in 2000-2006?
Her outfit 😍❤️
Can’t argue with that, except for the childhood fantasy bit . . No getting away from that sadly! 😂
Maybe back then because the competition for women was basically nothing but now nope
She was even better this last run than she was back then. Trish is the GOAT, no doubt.
Not even close Lmfaooooo she’s like hulk hogan without the drama, iconic for being one of the first to do something but not actually the best at it, I’d take almost 50% of the female roster today over her in ring and on the mic, but thank you Trish for everything you’ve done to allow these ladies to bloom today.
No lol She was terrible back in the day and it took her Mandy Rose levels of time before she was a good wrestler
Trish rocked back in early 2000’s, dude, stfu
She was terrible with Test and for a long time literally just there for the breasts. Revisionism won't get you anywhere, there were way better wrestlers at that time. Once she got upto speed she was good. But GOAT? Lol Above Chyna, Beth, Jazz, Charlotte and the like? 😂
I feel like you must have her confused with Stacey Keibler. I remember her with Test much more than Stratus. And as someone who actually watched the attitude era live, I don’t remember anyone on the planet thinking Chyna was a good worker
Chyna was far cleaner than "every move is a bulldog or roll up" Stratus when she first started.
EXQUISITE * breasts
Bro Trish didn’t start having decent matches till at least 2003 or 2004 towards the end of her career let’s be honest now
Yeah that’s true. But she was super hot
Now that right there is something we agree on. Wonder if the rumors about her and the rock having a fling backstage was true
She looks so different I can’t jerk the goose with that face 🥲
Mami's better than Trish
All of you should bow down and say "THANK YOU TRISH"
I don't think she's the greatest of all time. I do think her last run was the absolute best work of her career, and if she was around regularly now she would surpass a huge amount of talented people.
For now she’s correct, but by the time Charlotte and Rhea are done they’ll surpass her.
I’m not even sure who she is
I’m in the middle of watching old episodes of Raw from 98 until I get bored. I’m mid 2000 now and Trish has just popped up. It’s unbelievable how much better she looks now than she did then and she looked great then!! She even looks healthier now. A great thing about watching Trish from the start is you can see how much better she gets match by match!! She was awful when she started then she ended up main eventing Raw!!
She’s the best female sports entertainer of all time.
Once upon a time maybe. But she set a very low bar that I'd say the women today have far surpassed even on their current runs.
Nope. Imo it’s Mickey James.
Lol no. She was great for her time. The women are a lot better now.
maybe the women of today wouldn't be as good as they are if it wasn't for Trish, Lita & Chyna
They definitely would. It had more so to do with society changing and not just looking at women as objects to leer at than anything else.
The women now outclass every old diva it’s not even close. I always used to skip divas matches because it was so pathetic
American women are a lot better now. They really still haven’t caught up to Japanese women yet in my opinion
Nothing but respect for one of the women who taught an entire generation that women could actually wrestle but she’s about mid tier compared to the current roster.
She can claim one of the “most popular” of all time. SEVERAL women, not just ones in WWE have eclipsed her ring skills since her original run everyone was so impressed with. You were better than what had come before, but now we’ve come too far.
She was the goat, Becky passed her though and there is little to no doubt Rhea will become the Goat one day. Also I don’t care what she says she was in fact my childhood fantasy
She's technically correct, which as we all know is the best way of being correct
Probably is the GOAT I mean look at what she did for women’s wrestling you could argue maybe Lita and Beth but Trish is most likely the GOAT Becky isn’t there yet neither is Charlotte and people saying Rhea are delusional she’s been on the main roster for 3 years 🤣
She is better in-ring in the last year than she has ever been in the last 20! She’s not the most talented, she’s not the best on the mic, she’s not the most over, but she is most definitely the most iconic representation of a female WWE wrestler
She is definitely the greast of all time....childhood fantasy. And the fact that this woman is still hot AF cements it. lol. A great women's wrestler she was not.
No, Sherri was a better wrestler than Trish ever was and asuka is a better wrestler than Trish ever was
Honestly I’d put Chyna and Rhea probably next
For me the greatest is Natalya, match quality and longevity make her head and shoulders above the rest, If I had to pick top 4 or five all time, Mickie James, Trish stratus, Chyna and natalya, all four were pioneers of their own style in wrestling, Mickie was the best promo and story teller, Trish was the best draw, chyna was the first strong woman who was allowed to work with the male talent and natalya aside from being technical has been having good to great matches for the longest, started with fcw in 2003 and still in the mix all the time she was leading the charge of the womens revolution giving Charlotte, Ruby riot and Sasha banks their best matches at nxt
thats like saying apollo crews is the goat of the mens division. just cus you been around forever doesn't mean you a goat.
He hasn't been around for a long time isn't good on the mic and is average at best in ring, has no ability to tell a story in a match and can't get over she is like Owen Hart, has all the skill but predictable and dependable so easily overlooked in the goat debates
Natalya? I can’t name a single stand out Natalya match. I fully respect her longevity and can appreciate she’s a solid, safe worker. But her matches are pretty average every time
Also I said she is the best by my choice, there is a dozen women we could choose, and they would be viable
She gave Charlotte and Becky their best matches on nxt and elevated them, gave Ruby riot her best matches and feud to date, had Beth phoenix's best run, was holding the line for actually talented female wrestlers from the end of the Mickie James era till the four horse women rose to prominence
The way jazz use to do her she def not the greatest 🤣🤣
She's definitely not the greatest womens wrestler of all time. Even if your standard is based on kayfabe, still no.
Great heel promo. And like all great heel promos, it was 20% reality, 80% delusion. She was a nostalgia act (with some mileage left), she was many's childhood fantasy, she is NOT the GoaT (by a long shot).
Nah. She is a nostalgia act, that’s a fact. She’s not my childhood fantasy, Lita is though. And she was the greatest of her time, but not all time.
Not really a nostalgia act when she can absolutely still hang with everybody in the current roster.
Though she doesn’t attempt to, meaning she’s a part timer at best. Nothing against her of course
She ticks all 3 boxes, bro 👌 Chyna could be the goat woman though tbf
That promo was such a banger
Chyna
Both can be true
Nope, not even close. That spot belongs to Becky, Chatlotte, Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair…just to name a few
Asuka
And Asuka, to extend that list
Defo my childhood fantasy
I can very confidently say she's all three.
I reckon she would get outwrestled by a few of the guys at my local gym. I dont train there, but its local.
nah she standing on business, I can’t even be mad about the confidence. She’s definitely Mount Rushmore but idk bout the absolute best
Thank you Trish 🥵
I mean... She WILL always be childhood fantasy, regardless... Lol
Nope lol. As a wrestler she was just ok. As a talker she was pretty bad. Victoria and Jazz were miles ahead of her
Disagree. She was most definitely my childhood fantasy
Your tube socks will corroborate your story
No I used a warm washcloth
