Former Writer on WWE Pre-Divas Revolution
Former WWE writer Nico Gendron has penned a new article over at Birth. Movies. Death., looking at what the new GLOW on Netflix series has done for women in pro wrestling, and her time in WWE. She had the following to say on the company falling behind in booking women’s wrestling back when she was there in 2015:
“I was hired at WWE in the summer of 2015, right after they introduced ‘The Divas Revolution.’ In a male-dominated writers room, a female perspective was needed as WWE’s women wrestlers were expected to rise above their traditional role of full-time arm candy and part-time wrestler to share consistent (though limited) air time with their male, Superstar counterparts. I learned quickly that this wrestling dynasty hadn’t caught up to the main cultural dialogue around feminism and female empowerment that was electric outside WWE. With a great deal of ground to cover, I realized I would have to embrace the little victories, like storylines that do not hinge on a disagreement over a male love interest, avoiding dialogue where male Superstars reduce female wrestlers by telling them to shut up or by positioning them as getting in the way of their own success.”
