It’s hard to express the feelings I’m trying to evoke while writing this. It’s not anger by any means, but more of resentment towards a company that throughout history has never felt the need to say “Yeah, we kind of killed female wrestling in America for a long time.” I don’t know about you, but for me, the idea of them doing it again in the year 2024 and nobody batting an eye irks me the wrong way. I’ll give wrestling fans the benefit of the doubt, and I’ll say this is just a symptom of how WWE has painted this perfect idea of a wrestling company with no flaws whatsoever: like a house of cards that works to avoid any important discussions that we could be having right now instead of fighting a war we can’t win, but for anything that it’s worth I still want to get this out of my chest.
THE WOMEN’S REVOLUTION IS DEAD.
Something changed in the way women’s wrestling was perceived in the United States, and that’s thanks to many factors, the main one being how WWE has not used its platform to say that women’s wrestling should be important for the wrestling part and not for whoever becomes viral. I’m not here to discuss this topic, because I don’t feel the need to discuss anything that I’m about to write. After all, I’m seeing it happening in front of me, and as for me, I’m seeing a lot of people complain about this. This is not just a wrestling analysis, but an understanding of how the wrestling fan has never even cared about treating women’s wrestling as what it should be: therefore allowing this downgrade in terms of how it’s done and how we conceive its idea.
