I cannot begin to express the disappointment I felt when tuning in to TNA this past Thursday to catch the Knockouts match, instead finding a mixture of The Jersey Shore and an anorexic porn star as the segment's focal points.
Sad. This is not what I expected to find, considering how highly many spoke of the women wrestlers in this league.
When I think of the women I look up to, and the look I hope to achieve through my own training, I DO NOT think of this:
Thankfully my week of following the ladies did not end on a sour note, Smackdown gave the women a little bit more time to show everybody what they got, (but just a little) with Beth Phoenix and Rosa vs. LayCool.
And as much as people want to hate on the WWE, and how polished it is, at least the women aren't so polished that all credibility in their talent is scrubbed away. To do what these girls do, I know they have to train hard, to take the bumps and to pull off the maneuvers they can achieve with their bodies. I will hold out hope that the WWE will follow in TNA's footsteps in one aspect though, and give these women the time in the ring they need, to be able to prove that they can either play in the big leagues, or that they need to join botox bimbo over in the Knockouts. That's right, I said it. Angel Williams looks like a blow up doll.
