Sara Del Rey would be perfect for TNA's "Knockout" Division

[Kaedon]

Just a thought. I don't know if they still are, but in Japan a lot of the womens wrestlers were as popular as the male wrestlers (ex: Megumi Kudo)

They arent as over as Muta, Liger, Sasukae, Saito, and whatnot.

That may be true, but with the male dominated wrestling scene, did anyone expect them to become as popular as they did? Here in the US it would be nearly impossible to get a womens match as the main event on a card. If the women were given the shot to be at the top of the card, there a chance that they would be as popular as the male wrestlers.

Im gonna have to disagree. The WWF and the WWWF featured womens wrestling, like not just had it, FEATURED it. They would have tournaments for the title and they even had a womans tag team division where they brought in the japanese women wrestlers and tried to get it over, but it didnt.

What do you think would happen if they did that now? (it's not a point, I'm just wondering). I personally think that it would turn out well and it could get some good ratings.

Who is the biggest star in the history of womens wrestling? Whoever it is, multiply her stardom by 150% and you wont get close to 1/90th the fame that the biggest male draws have.

Exactly.

Yes, the Kncokouts are great, but Womens Matches don't sell PPV's. They don't sell tickets either. The simple fact is, males are the main attraction and if the women outdo the men, TNA has got a major problem that they have to fix to ever be a major competitior with the 'E

 

[Rell]

Ok, that's all fine and dandy, but can someone please explain to me, what all this has to do with Sara Del Rey and TNA's knockout division being perfect for eachother? Enlighten me on how this entire discussion sparked. We all know Male wrestlers are thee "dominant" gender in the so-called sport of professional wrestling. However, that has nothing to do with the topic, which is of course, SARA DEL REY.

thanks :winky:

I'm fed up of the blatant sexism on this forum. It just adheres to the wrestling fan, brainless male stereotype. Which I hate.

Womens wrestling is clearly very entertaining, otherwise why would places like Shimmer and Chickfight exist! The knockout division is making waves, and to be honest I would much rather watch a knockout bout than HHH Vs. Orton round #352, or HHH Vs. Cena go at one more time!

The reason that a female wrestler has never been as memorable as a lot of male wrestlers is because they're never given the oppurtunity to do so! Plus I can guarantee you that names such as Chyna, Trish Stratus and Lita are going to be remembered long after half of WWE's current mid-card division.

Good for yoy, but the 300.000 shipped copies of WM 22 featuring Cena vs HHH beg to differ.

And uhmm, yeah, the knockouts are the highest rated segment of Impact, but is that really impressive when what they drew is 1.2 max?

It would definitely fail now because back then the WWE did a whole shit ton of spot booking. They would throw guy together for no reason which (in many ways I do miss) They arent there to get over, the were there to be filler.

 

[Tsaalyo Phoenix]

^ Yes, it would definately fail, that's why the Knockouts are the highest rated segment. Yes, it's only a 1.2, and that's because TNA is pretty much unknown outside the IWC. If they didn't draw, then they'd be the lowest point on the graph. Sorry, women CAN be a draw if given the proper chance.

 

[Soulpower]

Man... This has gotten a tad off-topic. Also, WT?F at Kaedon namedropping japanese wrestlers.

The WWE Diva search was the higest rated segment on Raw too, that doesnt mean people would tune in EVERY WEEK JUST TO SEE WOMEN, because the fact is, they didnt. Show more than ONE quarter hour report that says the KOs are the highest rated every week. You all are believing a report that came out MONTHS AGO. Has one come out since? No, so shut the fuck up. ANd Roxxi, you waste of life, I thought you werent responding to me?

 

[chessarmy]

^ Waste of life? What the hell is up with that dude? Can't you have a normal debate without starting a flame war? The guy has a different opinion than you, fine, try to prove him wrong instead of throwing out random insults...

 

[Tsaalyo Phoenix]

^ Tell me about it. I started responding again because it looked like the thread had cooled down enough to have an actual conversation, and then this happens. It really makes me question why they made him a moderator, if he can't have a civil discussion with anyone he disagrees with.

 

[Kaedon]

Well if Roxxi didnt fucking insist that he is right without so much as a shred of evidence and then commences to calling men who disagree with him sexist, maybe Id take it easy, but why the fuck should I? If he's gonna be condescending, fuck it he's gonna get it back 10 fold.

 

[Tsaalyo Phoenix]

So I say that sexist men exist, and this is condescending? I call it "stating reality", but whatever, tomayto tomahto, right? Try being mature, reading my posts, and actually replying to the points I make rather than trying to start a flame war any time I post anywhere, because it's just making you look like an idiot.

"Hahahaha Roxxi didn't wikipedia Sherri, what an idiot! Roflmao!"

Grow up.

Now then:

Because only we, the forumers of ImpactWrestling.com, are the wrestling fans of the world, right? There are millions of sexist idiots out there, just as there are racists, terrorists, and pedophiles.

As for Sherri and Salinas, they are VALETS. They can wrestle, but they are nowhere near the level of Sara Del Rey. Women can be JUST as big draws as men if they are given an exact same opportunity and possess skill and charisma. People don't jump up and scream "ODB! ODB! ROXXI! ROXXI!" because they're demonstrating that their throats are cleared up for a Claratin commercial. They scream because they love what they see, and that's why the Knockouts are invariably the highest rated segment in TNA. But if Jessica Kresa (ODB) stayed in WWE, you think people would be chanting her name? No. She'd be a watered down, softcore live porn star. That's probably why you're so deadset against women's wrestling. Your mind has been poisoned by years of sluts posing as wrestlers to take backseat roles in WWE.

You're free to actually reply to what I have said there in a calm and mature manner, like an actual conversation. If you can't do that, don't waste my or the board's time with another flamebaiting reply. And if you feel this is condescending, sorry, I guess it's my instinctive response to incessant flamebaiting in lieu of the civilized discussion I rightfully expect from a staff member.
