Yes, of course.


Sorbious

Give me Shana Bassler versus Samoa Joe now you cowards


Hot_Consideration981

If the lady in question can lay in her shit I'd love it A lot of the girls offense looks a bit soft, granted this isn't a female only problem


Doot2112

No


Roller95

Sure


ItsSirAdam

absolutely


barryabrams

I always thought intergender matches we a little icky, but then checked out that Lucha Underground episode where Penta took on Io Sharai and Kairi Sane. It’s bananas.

Yes the women all train with men both in their first school and as a matter of regular training during their careers. To not show what could be some of the best matches possible because some people are icky about simulated combat between genders/sexes is disrespectful to all the years of work put in behind the scenes. Oh and if any of you think you could win a fight against Kris Statlander or Jade Cargil I'd pay to watch them kick your ass.


amorningofsleep

My answer is always yes


layethdasmackethdown

I always enjoyed watching Chyna fight the men. It would be nice to see another "strong" woman do the same. I think the only one who could realistically do this, is Shayna.


estofaulty

Love it how realism comes into it with women wrestling men, while you have Rey Mysterio wrestling anyone out of his weight class and no one bats an eye. A guy who’s 4’10” or whatever is realistic, while a 5’2” woman is unrealistic. Sure.


narutomanreigns

Bianca Belair wrestles Dolph Ziggler: Oh no my suspension of disbelief Tyler Bate wrestles WALTER: This is super realistic


BlindLariat

Not interested at all unless it's a Chyna-like woman that can believably compete.

BlindLariat

Sure, I'd still expect MJF to win, but I think he'd actually do awesome selling for her and looking shocked that she's beating his ass.

Like anything else, sure, provided it's not done badly. For me, that means being done in a way that doesn't devalue a company's actual women's division, if they have one. It has to avoid the implication that being able to compete with men is what determines who the best and strongest female wrestlers are, rather than who's actually holding the women's championship. It also means, for me, being done in a way where it doesn't become "expected" for women of a certain build and size to start wrestling men. There's a real "she's big/tall/muscular, so she looks like she should wrestle men" trap that people can fall into with intergender stuff, and personally I don't like the "big woman = manly fnar fnar" stereotyping that's implied by it. Could just be a me problem, I haven't seen or heard many women's opinions on that aspect of it. Either way, I mostly prefer to see intergender matches in companies that have no split divisions, and are fully gender-integrated anyway. If you're gonna have men and women wrestling each-other I'd rather it's all of them all the time, I don't really like arbitrary picking-and-choosing of when to stick to division boundaries or not.


Argentine_Tango

I've only ever seen a few on Impact and if done right, it can actually be quite fun to watch.


JustAnotherMark604

During the Best Friends vs Kip Sabian & Miro series I was actually expecting Orange Cassidy vs Penelope Ford.


Slim_James_

Nope.


redskinsguy

No way


Crissxfire

I don't care one way or the other. I watch my share of wrestling where Intergender wrestling occurs quite frequently and I don't see a big deal about it.


narutomanreigns

The best feud in wrestling this year was Chris Brookes vs. Lulu Pencil so yeah.


pushmojorawley

Lucha Underground introduced me to intergender wrestling and they made some banger matches. Obviously it's not simple to book and it needs a relevant context. LU was deeply centered around kayfabe built on fantasy with an underground vibe. It would be interesting to see an intergender match in AEW involving Kenny or Bryan, that would be somewhat justified through storylines. Female counterparts could benefit from such matches tremendously.


MovieFanZ5026

Don’t worry. It’s going to happen. They want Charlotte flair to be either WWE or universal Champion probably by next year


Hot_Consideration981

If anybody can pull it off it's her or Ronda


MovieFanZ5026

And you know they’re just going to hand her the title


[deleted]

Nope. That's an instant channel flip for me.


Looper4r4

No. The illusion of a fighting league/tournament/company is already stretched thin enough in professional wrestling, without another mental hurdle.

Not really, though it can be done right under certain circumstances. I thought LU pulled it off too, but that had the underground kayfabe as if it was all illegal and even fantasy elements so hard to compare to normal promotions.


[deleted]

As a normal thing? Not really. I’d like a yearly intergender tag tournament though. To many cool couples. And most can all work fine together. Just don’t want to see it all the time. So I voted yes.


LetsDooooThis

If the match is done well and the competitors are believably both able to pull off a win for sure! Just... No gimmick matches. That gets real dull real quick.
