#2. #GiveDivasAChance is born following the women's match on RAW - February 23rd, 2015

The women of WWE appear to be stagnating at present, given their recent booking, but seven years ago today the Women's Division was very different.

What began with a 23-second match between The Bella Twins, Paige, and Emma on RAW has since led to some huge changes in the company and the wrestling business as a whole.

The match kickstarted the #GiveDivasAChance hashtag which later led to Charlotte Flair, Sasha, and Becky Lynch being called up from NXT to kickstart a revolution on the main roster.

The Divas Championship has since been retired as well as the term "divas" and the women now have two Women's Championships and Women's Tag Team Championships to compete for on the main roster.

Seven years have seen a huge change in the landscape of women's wrestling with WrestleMania main events, Hell in a Cells, Elimination Chambers, Women's Royal Rumbles, and several other historic moments all because of one match that led to a worldwide trend.
