Jazz
After Chyna retired as the WWF Womenâs Champion in 2001 it was unclear what would happen with the title. The championship had already been down a rocky path since being reinstated to the company a few years earlier, and had been competed for in Evening Gown matches and even been held by a man.
But (now) WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus would win the vacant Womenâs Title and it would go on to be contested in some of the greatest, most respected womenâs matches in wrestling history over the next several years.
However, the same match that Trish won the title in also served as the WWF debut of former ECW star Jazz.
Obviously, Jazz carried with her an incredible amount of bravado and a reputation for being one of the toughest women in sports entertainment. She proved this during her memorable stint with WWE, winning the Womenâs Title serving as a top rival to many of WWEâs current Hall of Fame females.
Indeed, Jazz was not in WWE to wrestling in her underwear. She was there to beat people up and win matches, and thatâs exactly what she did.
Jazz was one of the most underappreciated members of the roster during one of the most revered eras in womenâs wrestling. Her no-nonsense personality was the glue that held together a division headlined by stars like Trish, Lita, Victoria and others, and after being part of the backbone of that critical time in history; itâs time sheâs given her place among the greats.
