Female Wrestlers

Asya (Christine Marie "Christi" Wolf, 1999-2000)

  • Amazonian Beauty/Brawn Hilda: A very rare example of a character splitting the difference. Although she was too muscular to be considered attractive by mainstream standards, she was very popular among Amazon Chasers even before she signed with WCW. WCW presented her as a scary and dangerous woman and never tried to claim she was attractive, but considering that she wore short-shorts and used a lot of moves that emphasized her legs, they clearly knew some fans thought so anyway.
  • Battle Couple: With Dale Torborg, briefly, during Torborg's feud with Vampiro. Torborg and Christie were a couple behind the scenes, and since this was Vince Russo era WCW, Asya was aligned with The KISS Demon with no explanation because Russo assumed the fans knew they were a real life item.
  • Captain Ersatz: Of WWE's Chyna, complete with Punny Name.
  • Dropped a Bridge on Her: She was written off WCW television after being (kayfabe) injured in a pyrotechnics malfunction caused by Vampiro.
  • Lightning Bruiser: She could backflip off the turnbuckle.
  • Murderous Thighs: Her quads were bigger than those of the men she managed, and she used a figure 4 headscissor as a finisher.
  • Muscles Are Meaningful
  • One of the Boys: She wrestled guys, although mostly in tag matches. WCW they didn't really make a very big deal out of it one way or another.
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: She's only 5'4", but 180 lbs of muscle.
  • Put on a Bus: Twice. After Benoit, Malenko, Guerrero and Saturn left WCW for WWF, Asya (who had been managing them) was taken off television. She returned without any fanfare as the KISS Demon's valet, but was then released when WCW got rid of all their female talent early in the winter of 2001.
  • Wrestling Doesn't Pay: She was discovered as a nurse in the insane asylum that Ric Flair was coincidentally sent to, who used her wrestling skills to keep them in line.

Akira Hokuto (佐々木 寿子, Sasaki Hisako, 1995-1997)

  • Battle Couple: Her husband, Kensuke Sasaki, is also a pro wrestler and sometimes accompanied her to the ring.
  • Cool Mask: During her entrance.
  • Foreign Wrestling Heel: With Sonny Onoo.
  • Signature Move: The Northern Lights Bomb, a move she created. Also her signature pin where she kneels across the opponent's body.

  • Alliterative Name: Gorgeous George.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: Appeared with Randy Savage during the last Nitro of 1998, before her proper introduction in 1999.
  • Gender-Blender Name: Rumor has it that WCW had bought the rights to the Gorgeous George name for Lanny Poffo, but something fell through and Lanny never showed up on WCW television, so the name was given to Stephanie instead.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Randy Savage's new main squeeze and her attractiveness was played up as much as possible.
  • Non Action Girl: Though she did wrestle Charles Robinson once at Slamboree, and wasn't half bad all things considered.

Tammy Lynn Sytch (Tamara Lynn Sytch, 2000)

Woman (Nancy Elizabeth Benoit, 1989-1990, 1996-1997)

  • Corrupted Cutie: She was initially Robin Greene, a geeky fan with a crush on Rick Steiner. She eventually went to Missy Hyatt for advice on how to win him over, got a sultry new makeover... and shortly afterwards, realizing the power her looks gave her, ditched him for Doom, becoming Woman.
  • Power Stable: Managed Doom and was closely associated with the Four Horsemen.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: She and Miss Elizabeth had this dynamic while acting as Ric Flair's joint valets. Elizabeth was the girly girl, the innocent waif who'd cause distractions. Woman was the one who'd get as physically involved as someone who never actually trained to wrestle could - she'd swing Mongo McMichael's briefcase if she could and a high heel shoe if she couldn't, and she even stood up to Jacqueline once.
  • Wrestling Family: Was married to Kevin Sullivan, left him for Chris Benoit...
