 The WWE has been nothing but a progressive brand within the last couple of years when it comes to shining a light on certain subjects around the sports entertainment industry.  The one particular subject was the women's division.  The division that was known as the "bathroom break" at live events has quickly turned the tables and become the main attraction. With fans starting the hashtag #GiveDivasAChance, it changed the WWE landscape forever. 

Everything starting a few years back when Stephanie McMahon introduced the "Women's Revolution".  Seeing the success of the US Women's Soccer Team and the talent WWE with its up and coming women, she knew she had something brewing.  This was almost unheard of around the sports world and Stephanie realizing the business women that she is, flipped the switch on the way fans watch WWE.  Introducing fans to the "Four Horseman", a group that consisted of Bayley, Sasha Banks, Charlotte, and Becky Lynch.  Along with well-known credible women in the industry like the Bella Twins and Paige.  This revolution would take WWE by storm and allowed fans to respect the matches these women competed in and create a favoritism for different superstars now being both men and women. 

But that announcement was only the tip of the ice berg for Stephanie McMahon.  She would continue to make history by having women compete in matches that the men only competed in like The Iron Man (Iron Women), Money in the Bank, Steel Cage.  It showed that women can be just as good as the men around the WWE.  Stephanie has pressed all the right buttons so far and by the looks of things she is only getting started.  Women in the industry can do anything the men are doing and giving them the opportunity to showcase their talents in matches is what is best for business.

While the revolution has been underway, it introduced the fans to even more successful women like Alexa Bliss, Nia Jax, Carmella, Asuka and Ronda Rousey.  When WWE revealed Rousey is crossing over to the WWE, it was a big milestone for what Stephanie envisioned for the revoultion.  Having Rousey at "WrestleMania" in a match against Stephanie and Triple H was huge.  But, having Rousey put Triple H through a table was the icing on the cake and showed that the women are here to stay. 

Last week on Monday Night Raw, she would stand in the ring with her husband (Triple H) and her father (Vince McMahon) and announce to all the Raw Superstars that they are making history again.  She announced that on October 28, there will be a women's only pay-per-view event live on the WWE Network. 

The Women's division has received nothing but support and praise from the WWE Universe when they implemented women to compete on bigger events.  It gave women of today an opportunity to chase their dreams and have a role model to look up to in the WWE.  The Women have yet to let the fans down and seeing them have the green light to go out and put on a show for the fans is truly something magical.

A push for Bobby Lashley is needed now more than ever

By: Fabrizio Salerno Twitter @fabriziosa1erno  When Bobby Lashley returned to the WWE, it was a monumental moment for the whole WWE Universe.  Another Power house star has arrived and can potentially take our eyes away from Roman Reigns.  Though Roman is a great performer and superstar, the WWE creative is always forcing him to be in the biggest matches and that doesn't go well with the WWE Universe. Now that Bobby came back to dominate and set his eyes on the ultimate prize of becoming a Universal Champion, it wasn't going to be an easy climb up the mountain.  You have experienced superstars that are also worthy for a match like Seth Rollins, Elias, Finn Balor and you guessed it Roman Reigns.  All these superstars have the track record and the faith of the WWE Universe to become a worthy champion and dethrone the current champion Brock Lesnar. Now it has been a couple of months since Lashley made his return and though his matches were pretty much all...

Top 10 Best Overall Sport Cities

(10) Miami The Dolphins surprisingly have a winning record, but you would’ve never guessed that after watching they were blown out by the Ravens. And to make matters worse, Jay Ajayi is out and on his way to Philadelphia. The Heat are still trying to regain their success of the Lebron-era by building around star center Hassan Whiteside but the Heat seem set for mediocrity yet again this season. Giancarlo Stanton is another promising player for the Marlins. (9) Denver The Broncos are riding a three-game losing streak and are playing the best team in football this upcoming week. The Nuggets are looking mediocre at the moment but it is too early to tell how they will turn out come February. (8) Chicago Mitch Trubisky has entered the building! The young quarterback has a way to go before teams will start to fear him, but his first few games have not been as bad as some expected. The Bears continue to rely on their underrated defense and strong run game. The Bulls ha...

The American League MVP Race - Who is leading the pack?

By Scott Edwards Twitter: @scottedwards18 As we approach the half way point of the MLB season, the AL MVP race begins to heat up with most of the dominant hitters in the MLB coming from the American League this season. From the impressive, historic start to the season by Mookie Betts, to the continued greatness of Mike Trout, this AL MVP race is truly the award race to follow this season. And so, as we are at the half way point, I felt it would be a good time to give an overview of who is leading and who has a chance to take it home by season’s end. Simply put, when all is said and done, Mike Trout could go down as the best baseball player to ever step on a field. At the young age of 26 years old, Trout is already a two-time MVP and six time all-star. And if we are being truly honest, he easily could have had another three MVP’s if it wasn't for three second place finishes. Yet miraculously, this year may somehow be Trout’s best campaign to date. The Angels’ star ou...
