5 milestones WWE's women can strive for next

#4 One-on-one WrestleMania match

Melina faced Ashley Massaro at WrestleMania 23

By the time WrestleMania 34 comes around, it will be 11 years since two women had a one-on-one match at the event. The last time it happened was back in 2007 when Melina defended her Women’s Championship in a short match against Ashley Massaro.

That statistic is, quite frankly, embarrassing for WWE, and it has to change at next year’s event in New Orleans.

NXT has had more meaningful women’s feuds in the last three years than WWE has had in the last decade, and it’s because they resist the urge to put every woman on the roster in their TakeOver events.

The likes of Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Paige and Asuka made their names from appearing in high-profile one-on-one matches in NXT, whereas WWE throws as many women as possible into matches on their biggest show just to get them on the card.

It’s good of WWE to do, in a way, but it would certainly be better to see an important women’s rivalry culminate at the “Showcase of the Immortals” instead of seeing six women put into a match that we’ve already seen countless times.
