Mickie James lit up WWE LFG with her blunt take on womens wrestling gearbut now, a former TNA Knockout has chimed in, and shes not holding back.
After James criticized women for wrestling in what she called jazzed up lingerie and said it was very distracting to watch matches when all she could see was their ass, fans and fellow wrestlers lit up the comments. But the latest voice in the debate might be the most ironic twist yet.
A former TNA Knockout Velvet Skyknown for famously showing her backside during her entrance as part of her actjumped into the conversation by commenting on the video clip shared by Ringside News. Her response?
I feel attacked! lol nothing wrong with sex appeal in wrestling. Diva era or not. I personally find nothing wrong with her gear. Just my opinion but what do I know? Let the pigeons loose, Zena!
The comment was a clear defense of Zena Sterling, the LFG competitor whose gear Mickie had praisedwhile also using the moment to call out James for what many see as hypocrisy. Fans were quick to point out Mickies own past in WWE, from her risqu gear to moments like making a V-sign at WrestleMania and kissing another woman on camera during the Vince McMahon era.
Mickie defended her stance by saying, You want to be taken seriously as a wrestler, but you are pretty much wrestling in jazzed-up lingerie, adding, Thats my opinion. And thats coming from someone whos had their ass on TV a lot.
Social media didnt let it slide. One fan clapped back with, Cmon bruhhh let them wrestle in the gear they want while another said, Sounds like a bitter older woman whos hating for zero reason.
With former Knockouts now weighing in, the debate has only gotten louder. And with Mickie James Diva-era past still fresh in fans minds, its clear this conversation isnt going away any time soon.
