Call me old school, or just call me silly.
But I can remember back when they were called *women wrestlers* and not Divas, ok?
And I....(*blushing slightly here*) was a Molly Holly fan. I still remembered her from her blonde/face years, ok? And the truth is, I *liked* being able to see someone who was there because she had talent, not a boob job. She could actually do some mat wrestling, not just one or two moves, she was an ex-powerlifter, so she had the muscle....and NO boyjaw from doing steroids either! :p *lol*
But....she got too good at being a heel. And people really wanted someone to hate on so they could *like Trish*, I get that.
But between Trish and Stone Cold's *brain fart* of putting Holly in a hair match and *making damn sure* she'd never turn face again, her career got *ruined*. T_T (*sobs*)
Which is a shame....but it happens. She was getting older, she was getting some scar tissue built up, there was no going back to the "cute" angle for her. But still....is this any way to treat one of the *last* truly technical Women's Wrestlers that stepped in a ring *before* Vince McMahon started handing out Boob Job Vouchers as a job requirement?
Just saying.....
Thanks for your time! (*puts away the Kleenez*) Hell, I get it, nobody wants to see an old lady in the ring, but damn....did Miss Madness have to go out like this?

Edit: Agreeing here on how the lack of face/heel distinctions really doesn't help the ladies out. It didn't help Torrie Wilson when she tried a heel turn since people were like "Huh?", or at least *I* was.
Now the Molly Holly/Gail Kim heel turn....*that* was interesting to watch. Creepy but fun....pity it didn't get to live up to its potential, partly because of the lack of technical talent on the other side (again, boob jobs versus Mat Skills....pity the former wins every time in the WWE).
