Make your own women's Royal Rumble

[Tiarnán]

...using 30 women from WWE history, but referencing the era that you're plucking them from.

I stole this from the podcast the old Diva Dirt squad do.

E.g. if you're naming Trish, you'd have to say:

1. Trish Stratus - super babyface era 2003

Or whichever.

[Brandon]

I like this. Gonna think about it while I shower, brb.

[Tiarnán]

Taking dynamics of the women into account...

1. Melina - circa 2008, freshly turned face on Beth Phoenix
2. Mickie James - pre WM22 psycho tweener
3. Lita - returning from neck injury 2003
4. Ivory - Right to Censor
5. Trish Stratus - face veteran 2006, for dynamic with Mickie
6. Beth Phoenix - dominating pre-Glamarella Beth
7. Molly Holly - cute Holly cousin 2001
8. Jazz - Newly signed badass 2001
9. AJ Lee - rookie underdog on the verge of a mental breakdown with Daniel Bryan
10. Nidia - Jamie's girlfriend
11. Gail Kim - mysterious rookie
12. Sasha Banks - The Boss of NXT 2015
13. Chyna - dodgy neck Chyna 2001 out to kill Ivory
14. Becky Lynch - current Becky
15. Stephanie McMahon - Women's Champion Steph terrified of physical interaction
16. Tori - Stephanie's muscle
17. Asuka - to slaughter Stephanie

19. Michelle McCool- bluechipper 2007/8
20. Jillian Hall - early songstress

27. Jacqueline - PMS
28. Terri - PMS

Are Torrie and Stacy's WCW tenure excluded and does NXT count?

If WCW counts I might need to see if I can fit in Major Gunns.

[Tiarnán]

Anyone

Don't ruin this for me by pushing it. Gunns was never even in WWF/E. I'm not over here asking for Gorgeous George.

Nvm the previous Burke and now this is going to take more time.

[Burke]

Oh damn I forgot about Kharma.

[Tiarnán]

Omg, I'm just now considering the prospect of Ivory turning tonight in full RTC gear. Complete with siren music and bun.

[Brandon]

1. Bull Nakano (1994)
2. Alundra Blayze (1994) - She and Bull are part the reason we're here tonight and they deserve their spots. I almost gave Wendi Richter one as well, but unfortunately we don't have enough slots to throw it that damn far back.
3. Beulah McGillicutty (1997) - Surprise entrant from ECW.
4. Luna Vachon (1998) - Goldust's girl.
5. Sable (1998) - Pop of the night.
6. Jacqueline (1999) - PMS in her corner.

8. Molly Holly (2000) - Holly cousin.
9. Lita (2001) - Team Xtreme.
10. Jazz (2002) - Cleans house when she hits the ring, shockingly eliminating one of the '94 women.
11. Stacy Keibler (2002) - Spends most of the match in the corner, getting in her stomps. Rolls out of the ring when things get hairy and points and laughs when someone gets eliminated, maybe Jazz, and gets chased to the back, not to be seen for the rest of the night.
12. Trish Stratus (2002) - Stratusfaction era, helps Sable and Lita even the odds against Jacqueline, Luna and Ivory.
13. Torrie Wilson (2003) - Queen of SmackDown. Fights back to back with Trish against heels who're circling them later in the match, but gets eliminated, leaving Trish on her own.
14. Victoria (2003) - Psycho.
15. Gail Kim (2003) - Out to kill Trish with Victoria.
16. Melina (2005) - Stepping out on her own from MNM; makes a big impression.
17. Candice Michelle (2006) - Magic wand and has to rush down the ramp before the next participant enters because she was being too extra with her entrance.
18. Maryse (2008) - Breakout star of SmackDown era. Scores some key eliminations.
19. Beth Phoenix (2009) - Glamazon bully.
20. Natalya (2009) - Maryse's puppet.
21. Michelle McCool (2010) - Coming into her own as an ice queen heel, not yet linked up with Layla.
22. Mickie James (2011) - Hardcore Country.
23. Charlotte Flair (2016) - GOAT heel whose freshly ditched her father.
24. Eva Marie (2016) - Eliminates a huge babyface like Becky or Naomi when their back is turned; gets murdered by Asuka.
25. Nikki Bella (2016) - SmackDown veteran.
26. Becky Lynch (2017) - Forever 21 lace attire.
27. Paige (2017) - Absolution era, before Sasha got reckless.
28. Asuka (2018) - For the shock value when she gets eliminated when there are still plenty of girls left, and now the audience has no clue whose winning.
29. Naomi (2018) - Glowworm.
30. Sasha Banks (2018) - Babyface who just can't help herself acting like a heel. Gets eliminated by a Candice or a Maryse so she can seethe.

1. Bull Nakano (1994)

Thank you. I had to get rid of Nakano and Sherri when I realized I left out Mickie and Melina. Then I ended up editing like half the list I had. It was annoying.
