The WWE landscape has undergone a drastic change in the last decade, especially for the women. After the onset of the Women’s Revolution, the female superstars were given the same major opportunities as the male superstars, and they became a vital part of the television programming and significant Premium Live Events. However, ex-WWE Diva Cameron has a slightly different opinion when it comes to today’s era of women’s wrestling.
Ex-WWE Diva Cameron feels women’s wrestling is missing a major s*x appeal quotient today
Cameron appeared on Layla El’s podcast, Lay Talk, and both former WWE superstars discussed the current women’s wrestling scene in WWE. This led Cameron to say that the current product lacked s*x appeal and the fans, especially the male audience, wanted to see that glamour quotient.She said, “You know what’s missing? It’s because I do think there was a standard that got higher, and I think the girls can kick a**. But what’s missing is what made the girls Divas. If people want to watch MMA, they’re going to watch MMA, right? But I feel like that’s what’s missing: that s*x appeal. Guys, respectfully, want to see a little a**. But I think it’s dope for girls to show a little a** and be able to kick a**. This is what’s missing. Am I wrong? I don’t know.”
What did Layla have to say about the current women’s wrestling scenario?
Upon hearing Cameron comments, Layla agreed with her and said that it was difficult for the current WWE female stars to be beautiful and hardcore in-ring performers at the same time. However, Layla believed that former WWE Women’s Champion Chelsea Green could fit the bill of being glamorous and athletic at the same time.“I absolutely get what you’re saying and stuff like that. But the thing is, they’re in a difficult situation because they want to be sexy, but the audience has now adapted to them being hardcore wrestlers who kick a**. So it’s a really thin line for them. Chelsea Green, I think, hits it”, said Layla.While Layla and Cameron wrestled in a different era, when women were appreciated more for their looks than their in-ring acumen, the duo made an impact in their own right. It ultimately paved the way for the women today, as they are now seen on par with the male WWE stars.Also read: Is Roman Reigns Unbeatable? 4 WWE stars who can defeat The OTC for his World Championship
