What makes a good woman wrestler?

Same thing it does as a male wrestler, they should have charisma, athleticism, talent, good psychology, and an ability to work the crowd and the match. Also looks are a huge part of a woman's marketability for mainstream fans and for WWE. I don't mind them not looking like models, but marks do.

someone who doesnt botch simple moves

Well, for starters.. Knowing what the heck they are doing helps.

I
have NEVER been a big fan of "doing more moves makes you are good
wrestler." So, you can do a dropkick, but what's the point if you can't
do it right? I am looking at you Michelle and Eve. imo, that oozes
"Shit, I can't work a match, but that doesn't matter to me!"

Another
thing that is important is charisma. Logs wrestle when they are on the
back of the lumber truck. Is that shit exciting? Nah. This also shows
if you want to be out there to me. I am not saying that every face has
to be all =D and every heel has to be all D=<. However, when a
person has charisma, they tend to be more radiant to me.


One
of my favorite divas ever is Stacy K. Was she technically a good
wrestler? Heck no! But she knew what made an match worth watching.. And
it wasn't a botch infested borefest.

its bc stacy had ass.

so that means Layla and Alicia Fox cant be used in this conversation?

^^^^Well Layla has good ring physcology in the sense that she stays on one body part and that sets her apart from the rest of the DSers. What makes a good wrestler? Someone like Molly Holly or Gail Kim, they can work various styles and that makes them great wrestlers

In a perfect world, yes. But in a marks world, no.

Call me in a few years when Alicia Fox has transformed into a great wrestler

dont see that happening

I think a good wrestler is someone who can change it up a bit. A wrestler may have all the charisma in the world but if they cant work a damn I dont consider them a good wrestler.

I guess a blanace of having everything makes a good wrestler.

TBH i think a good wrestler has to play both sides of the fense, the have to an amazing heel when it comes down to it but can easily play a face as well. The have a varity of moves and different styles, and know when to switch it up.

An good woman's wrestler is just the same as a good male wrestler in my opinion. Being a good wrestler means being a good performer.

It's about being able to work a match, taking moves from your opponent and making your opponent look good with how you bump and sell for them while also being able to deliver your own offense with ease. Having elements of your performance that energizes the crowd into rooting for or against you which also falls in the category of the ability to work a crowd. A good wrestler should be have good mic and acting skills and is able to combine good performances in the ring, with good performances out of the ring.
