Intergender wrestling has become more common in recent years, particularly in the independent wrestling promotions. Impact Wrestling also had a huge intergender angle as Tessa Blanchard competed against Sami Callihan for the Impact World Title, where she ended up winning the title.
Jim Ross spoke on his Grilling JR podcast, where he talked about Chyna’s time in WWE. Chyna often competed against men when she was a wrestler in WWE. During the podcast, Ross revealed that he did not like intergender wrestling during Chyna’s time and his opinion remains the same even today.
“I’m maybe too set in my ways too. I’ll admit that, I’m trying to be honest but I’ve never been able to get over that hump. “I know that’s gonna piss off Tessa Blanchard fans and other fans. It’s no disrespect to any of those women. I don’t think men should wrestle women either.”
Ross added that he was against Chyna winning the WWE Intercontinental Title, which was predominantly won by men.
