The title is self explanatory.

If Trish & Lita joined WWE in the current era, how do you think they would do?

Discuss.

Pretty easy, they wouldn't have been as big as they were. Trish and Lita were miles behind the current pool of talent, especially the Horsewomen, Joshi girls, and Alexa Bliss, not to mention some of the AEW women.

Genuinely believe if Trish and Lita debuted in this era they would have been fringe upper midcarders in a reasonable booking scenario.

I don't even think Trish would be better of than someone like Dana Brooke, if she'd debut in this generation. Trish was extremely green when she got her first matches in on WWE TV. Lita would've a better chance of succeeding, I think.

I'd far more interested in seeing what it would be like for women like Jacqueline or Victoria, or hecking Sarah Stock, if they would break in or be in their prime now. Or Indy women like Daizee Haze, MsChif or Portia Perez. Those are the ones who would get the spotlights they'd deserve nowadays. There are quite a few, who are on top of their respective women's divisions today, who would be a couple of steps lower on the ladder, if these were around.

Like Grim said, Trish would be Dana Brook levels, maybe a Mandy Rose at best.

Really hard to pinpoint where Lita would be but probably down towards the bottom aswell.

Lita may have gotten somewhere w a moonsault n a different look but ive seen her work recently n shes pretty bad. Agree trish was crap too but uts hard to say. Wrestling schools n womens wrestling is taken more seriously so its hard to gauge what they could have become.

Tell you one thing tho, prime mickie james today would have been the top draw today or close to.

Yeah in a generation where the in-ring ability actually matters, they probably don’t stand out as much as they did in their time.

Lita would be overrated by neckbeards because she trained in Mexico and act like she's being buried with any loss she took.

Trish would be treated like shit because "she's just a model".
