Madusa

Longtime WWE fans who were around in the mid-90s might remember Madusa as Alundra Blayze. She is best known for throwing the WWE Women's title belt in the trash can, when she showed up unexpectedly on WCW Monday Nitro on December 18, 1995. Madusa later stated that she regretted her actions and wouldn't have done it if she hadn't been coerced by Eric Bischoff.

At Starrcade 1999, Madusa met Evan Karagias for the latter's WCW Cruiserweight title. Spice, who was on Karagias' side, hit him with a low blow during the match, leading to Madusa pinning him and winning the Cruiserweight title. Thus, Madusa became the first-ever female to win the belt. Soon after, Madusa kicked off a rivalry with Oklahoma, a character that was created to take a shot at WWE announcer Jim Ross. On January 16, 2000, Madusa faced Oklahoma with the WCW Cruiserweight title on the line. Oklahoma ended up defeating Madusa to win the belt. This was the only title belt that Oklahoma won during his short-lived WCW stint.
