During the Divas Era from 1999 to as recently as 2015, the majority of WWE's female talents came from modeling backgrounds but there were diamonds in the rough that included the likes of Trish Stratus, Lita, Victoria, Molly Holly, Mickie James, Beth Phoenix, Natalya, AJ Lee and Paige, just to name a few.

It was also an era that saw matches which focused on so-called eye candy which included bra-and-panties matches, pillow fights, bikini contests, evening gown matches, Halloween costume contests, Santa's Little Helpers matches, pudding matches, Fulfill Your Fantasy battle royals and even a gravy bowl match.

But those days are long gone now that the indie wrestler has replaced the model when it came to hiring female talents thanks in large part to the Divas Division rebranded as the Women's Division.

The likes of Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, Asuka, Bayley, Alexa Bliss and Becky Lynch are treated as equals to their male counterparts.
