It was a close call between Trish and Asuka.

This is going to be a bizarre comparison, but I think Trish is the Hogan of modern women's wrestling - took a very simple style and just dragged the audience into caring with top-shelf crowd and promo work. WWE treated the division comically poorly in the gap between her and NXT, but I'm also not sure any woman in that gap in WWE (even wrestlers who are personal favorites) carried a mic like she did.

And NAMEDROP is the modern day Trish Stratus. People will argue with me over it, but she definitely is.

There's at least 1 woman in between Trish and the NXT era who is better than Trish on the mic and in the ring. I guess you can call Trish the Hogan of modern women's wrestling, but I'm not sure that's the compliment you think it is either. I like Trish. She worked hard. She played a great character. And she did as much as she could in an era where there wasn't much to do. But it's not like anything she did changed the business in any way nor was she a real reason why people were going to shows. I think in a different era, she'd be looked at favorably as well, but we wouldn't have this great nostalgic view of her either. At the end of the day, she was great in her era, but not sure how well that would translate to being any bigger than a current brand's champion is today.

And I am curious who Dash thinks is this era's Trish. I had two thoughts, but Britt's already been drafted and the other one might be the one I just hinted around above.

My gut instinct is that we are thinking of the same person, as toxic as that thought might be.

That's a lot of women I wanted off the board, so I'm calling an audible.
