She was never Molly or Victoria...all around by 03? She was good. She was taking chair shots in that no dq match with Victoria. Lol.
The Lita chants were louder in 00 and 2001 but Trish was slick on the mic by 04 and the heel run. Mickie pretty much put her to shame, character/mic/wrestling wise, by the beginning of 06 though.
trish was never good at any point.
she was just able to work her way up to being tolerable.
she was piss-break status unless she was being carried by jazz, Victoria, molly, etc......and later on, mickie james when she jumoed to the E.
The difference is that Trish actually had to improve in the ring before they gave her the title, before that it was all about Chyna, Ivory, Lita, Jacqueline, Miss Kitty & Stephanie.
that's because trish came in as a manager. once she started wrestling, they were gonna make her the face of the division, even if she hadn't improved to sloppy-struggle-average.
case in point, look at how they kept a handful of superior talents that had to play the background because trish had the look.
plus people are comparing bliss to the totality of trish's career, as opposed to when trish was at the same point of her career that bliss is in now.
only things that separate bliss from trish is that bliss is too shook in the ring, while trish wasn't scared to take a bump, and had a great work ethic. talent-wise, bliss is prolly better.
The difference is all those women you mentioned actually got a run with the title, Bliss is basically on the Cena/Hogan path now.
how is that any different from today?
just about any woman that stays in the WWE long enough, gets a run with the belt.
Paige would have been fukked up by any bump, she has no business in the ring. When Ronda gives Nikki Bella those sloppy ass judo throws, same shyt may happen. Looks like they're doing the exact same storyline with Charlotte/Becky as Sasha/Bayley, I think its ineptitude
wait
so that clip with sasha is what ended paige's career??
that chit looked like a love-tap. there has to be more to the story.
