How do you think a female/diva WWE: Brawl For All in 2014 would be and why?

Hi, it's Trish again. Ok, I'm not advocating this, just asking. We all remember the WWF: Brawl For All in 1998. That didn't turn out as planned at all. For those that don't remember, it was a tournament that actually had wrestlers fighting for real similar to MMA. However, let's imagine the divas having this same tournament this year. How do you think this would do and why? Would you watch it? Who do you think would win it?

    I've never been an advocate of shoot fighting in professional wrestling. Shoot tournaments like this have hurt the careers of tough guys like Dr. Death Steve Williams because some worthless undercarder like Bart Gunn got a lucky pop in.

    With that being said, they wouldn't, and couldn't, do much to hurt the diva's division. Depending on whose involved, I'd say Natalya has a shot at winning it. I'm sure the Harts have taught all their kids how to stretch someone if they got fresh with them in the ring. If Eve Torres were still around, I'd say her since...well...she's married to a Gracie and has been training in the Gracie Dojo for quite some time now.

    If it's solely based on standing boxing game like in '98, then it'd be harder to call. We've seen Naomi take a pretty brutal knee to the eye unexpectedly and keep on going, so I think people would be surprised to find out who had a glass jaw and who didn't.

    I wouldn't want to see that. If the fan reactions back when it did happen are anything to go by then most people wouldn't want to see it either. I watch Pro-Wrestling for Pro-Wrestling, not MMA. If I want MMA I'll just go watch the UFC. I don't want to see WWE superstars doing a cheap imitation of MMA fights. Even if it is hot diva's...

    Jim Ross himself went on record to say it was the stupidest thing the WWE has ever done. And he's right. Besides it would risk injuring a lot of the talent on the roster. And with the way things are now with the PG rating and the WWE trying to be family-friendly it would just kick all that to the curb. It would never work in today's day and age. Hell it didn't even work that well back then.

    Hopefully that answers your question.

    Sorry Trish but I think that idea would go down as well as Big Dick Johnson in a sprout eating contest.

    There are a few good wrestlers in the diva division like Paige, AJ, Natalya but I don't see even them as shoot style brawl fighters.

    The rest would just look silly, Eva Marie only learned how to climb in the ring recently so a shoot style brawl contest with her and Rosa Mendes would definately not up the stocks.

    You could gimmick the whole thing however and have Alicia go bat **** crazy and wedgie everyone into submission I suppose.

    I think it could work but only if they incorporate the girls from nxt. The main diva roster is pathetic only a few of them are actually wrestlers but with addition of Paige and girls like Charlotte and Emma plus mainstays like Natalya and aj lee it could be really wrestling and decently entertaining

    i would not want too see that. the divas division is mediocre at best as it is so shoot fighting would not be great to see in my opinion
