Diva Couture: Nitro Fashions in WCW

divacoutureIt was nice being a wrestling fan in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. There were the Monday Night Wars!

Now, if you’re a women’s wrestling fan like me you were primarily interested in the storylines involving the girls.

WCW was going for the same approach…minus the making fans care about the girl’s in-ring ability.
