5 Ugliest backstage catfights in WWE history

Jerry Lawler is a happy man

The term "catfight" within the world of WWE tends to refer back to an era in which women's wrestling wasn't all too prominent. Instead, the women on screen engaged in brawls both in the ring and backstage that only really existed to appease the masses of male fans who wanted to see some puppies. Thanks a lot for that by the way, Mr Lawler. Not.

Despite all this, though, there have been some enjoyable catfights over the years that have taken place during backstage segments. Obviously, that may not be what a lot of you were expecting us to talk about when you saw the title, but when we bring up the term "ugliest" it can tie into the idea that some of these brawls were quite brutal in an enjoyable kind of way.

After all, titles like the Hardcore Championship used to thrive on these kinds of incidents so why can't we pick out a few of our favourite scraps between the women of yesteryear? They're fun, they're entertaining, and they remind some fans of a time when professional wrestling was at an all-time high. Well, from a rating’s standpoint that is.

With that being said, here are the five ugliest backstage catfights in WWE history.


#1 Torrie Wilson vs. Stacy Keibler

Torrie and Stacy together was money

Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler are two of the most beautiful women to ever walk through the doors of WWE - that much is obvious. Because of this, whenever the two women were in the same room together it would almost always equal ratings as fans from around the world wanted to see what these two divas would be doing on the show.

At Backlash 2003, however, they were treated to something a little different as Wilson and Keibler engaged in a backstage brawl that was actually quite impressive. After briefly grappling, the bout escalated to the point where Wilson threw Keibler into a selection of drawers, causing a heavy box to fall onto her head from above. Ouch.

We fast forward five years for our next entry.
