Intergender Wrestling in WWE
Alright, so they've been teasing bringing back intergender wrestling for awhile now with the Mixed Match Challenge, Becky Lynch challenging John Cena, and a bunch of other hints. Last night they dove in with Nia entering the Rumble and actually taking offense from men.
Last night seemed like a test and as far as I can tell they passed. The crowd popped big for it and there doesn't seem to be any big pushback on social media. If there's no complaints from sponsors I would think they'd keep going.
So what do we think? Good idea or bad idea to bring back intergender wrestling? What about the execution of Nia entering the match last night? What would be some good intergender matches?
I think it's a good idea if it isn't going to cost them sponsors. It would be fresh and different, their women are bigger stars than their men right now. I think their product needs a shot in the arm right now and some big intergender matches could be it. John Cena vs. Ronda Rousey is something that would get mainstream attention. Not just mainstream sports attention, actual mainstream news coverage. If Ronda is gone after Wrestlemania as rumored I think you just sub Becky or Charlotte into her spot. Becky is hotter right now but Charlotte might be more promotable to the mainstream due to the Flair name.
So as far as I'm concerned go for it. Might be right to wait for next Wrestlemania to really make it huge. This year Wrestlemania can be headlined by a women's match for the first time ever, next year it can be headlined by an intergender match.

I think it's a horrible idea. Are we really expected to believe Becky Lynch can beat John Cena? People have a hard time believing Balor can hang with Brock for goodness sake's. Just reading the comments Alvarez's twitter, most people did not seem into Nia Jax taking offense from the men.
