#2 Is WWE focusing on building more female stars?

One of the biggest questions we have post-WarGames and Survivor Series is whether the company has finally shifted focus from just building a handful of top female Superstars to building many top women.

Earlier in its history, the Women's Division was built on a handful of female talent, such as Trish Stratus and Lita. Recently, we’d seen WWE invest heavily in the Four Horsewomen, but the roster's other females only received the spotlight for a short amount of time, if ever.

In the build-up to Survivor Series, we saw the company focus as much on the women’s matches as they did on any of the men’s matches, and some women made much bigger impacts than any male in WWE.

During the event, we saw rising star Rhea Ripley once again stand tall after scoring a victory for Team NXT. The Survivor Series main event saw the company's three female singles champions go head to head, with NXT's Shayna Baszler ultimately picking up the victory.

With women earning a more prominent role in WWE, we feel that the company has finally shifted focus to building NXT's female roster and also the Women's Divisions company wide.

Such top matches have allowed the company to come out with more top female stars, which is much better than relying solely on a handful of women, as they did in the past.
