Don’t get us confused you savages, every woman is beautiful in their own way, but according to Vince McMahon during the Attitude Era, a woman had to have some particular assets and unique look to make a buck for the company. We all know about Sable, Sunny, Torrie Wilson, Trish Stratus, and Stacy Keibler, but don’t forget The Kat, Jacqueline, and Terri Runnels either.
Compared to the 80s and early 90s, the WWE decided to acquire a lot of female talent during the Attitude Era. A lot of the talent hired was not so much because they could wrestle, but because they could put on titillating performances that sold tickets and pushed the rating meter. With an edgier product, came edgier segments and matches for the WWE. Before you knew it, there were bikini contests, mud wrestling matches and nudity on the show.
It was an era that will never be repeated but we can always imagine which ladies of today could have made it back then. As we mentioned in the beginning, we’re not here to trash any of the ladies in the WWE Universe. Each one is beautiful in their own right, however, that doesn’t mean we can’t have a fun discussion about who could have made it in the Attitude Era and who might not. Enjoy.
15. Sash Banks – Wouldn’t

We’re going to get flak for this one because a lot of fans love Banks but she would NOT have made it in the Attitude Era. Her wrestling skills are top notch and her charisma is on point, but does The Boss have the assets that Vince was looking for during the Attitude Era? Now we’re not saying she isn’t beautiful in her own way, but we clearly know the trend McMahon was looking for decades ago.
Banks would make her professional wrestling debut in 2010. Two years later, WWE would offer her a contract and the rest is history. Just ask yourself, can you see Banks performing a mud match? Don’t you think she would decline the match due to her skills as a legit wrestler?
