10 best storylines involving WWE female wrestlers

#7 Trish and Lita

The female Rock and Austin?

Before the days of the women’s revolution, the WWF had Trish Stratus and Lita to represent them, and to their credit, we are still talking about them very highly in 2017, more than 15 years after their heyday. In a time when WWE was doing things that transcended pro wrestling, helping them to become culturally relevant in a big way, Lita and Trish were no exceptions, appearing on magazine covers and making celebrity appearances outside of the squared circle.

While the two enjoyed most of their success competing against each other, they did once team up during the Invasion angle to help WWE fight off WCW and ECW superstars such as Ivory and Mighty Molly.

Their rivalry over the WWF Women’s Championship is now the stuff of legend. Initially beginning the feud in the aftermath of the ill-advised forced marriage and miscarriage angle involving Kane and Matt Hardy, Lita became obsessed with defeating Stratus after Trish continuously abused Lita verbally for her weight.

The two then fought over the title numerous times, even main eventing RAW in what is generally considered one of the best women’s matches in WWE history. This match is now used to train young female wrestlers and was put in a position previously unheard of for women’s wrestling as a whole.

The two women have remained good friends throughout their time together, culminating with Trish inducting Lita into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2014.
