Right now, the WWE likes to bash us all around the head with the concept of the 'women's revolution' as created by one Stephanie McMahon. Yep, by WWE narrative, this is all the creation of Stephanie, nobody else, and women's wrestling is only popular because the Billion Dollar Princess decided to make it so.
Regardless of that, women have been a prominent part of the wrestling business for as long as we can all remember, be that either as in-ring talents or as managers or valets. Some women made a huge mark and changed the wrestling business, while others were merely hired because Vince McMahon thought they looked good on TV.
We all may be able to name the trailblazers and groundbreaking names of yesteryear, but not all of us can remember some of the lesser-known talents who have graced the doors of the WWF/E over the years.
For this quiz, we're all about looking back at the ladies who were once a part of Vince McMahon's wrestling behemoth at some point in time. Here, we have 25 famed women of wrestling featured, and it's down to you to prove just how much of a true wrestling fan you are by doing your best to name them all. So go on, what are you waiting for!
