The Women's Revolution has taken over WWE in recent years with the likes of Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, and Sasha Banks becoming household names.

These women have inspired a whole host of new faces to lace up their wrestling boots and in turn, have guaranteed the future of women's wrestling. That being said, there are several women in history who were never able to set foot in the ring and show what they are capable of.

The following list looks at just five former women who left the company without ever wrestling a match.


#5. Former superstar Sunny was never able to wrestle a match during her time in WWE

Sunny is widely considered to be the first-ever WWE Diva and the former star went on to inspire many of the current women to pursue a career in the business.

That being said, Sunny became recognizable as a manager and a valet for several of the company's biggest names, including Legion of Doom, Ron Simmons, and Bam Bam Bigelow.

Sunny was part of the company at a time when women were seen as "eye candy" for the male demographic of the WWE Universe, and in fairness to the former star, the women at that time were not expected to be able to wrestle.

This was a time when the Women's Championship was decided in Evening Gown, Bra and Panties and even Pudding Matches, and set the tone for what was to come in the company for years to come. Luckily, 2015 marked a change and the Women's Revolution brought an end to this treatment of women when the term Divas was eradicated from the company.

Sunny and Sable were the top Divas in the 90s, but whilst Sable entered the ring and was able to win the Women's Championship, Sunny was never given the chance.

Interestingly, Sunny is already a Hall of Famer and has been recognized for her managerial contributions to the company. Sable on the other hand still awaits her Hall of Fame induction.

#4. Former WWE Superstar Lilian Garcia

Lilian Garcia was one of WWE's longest-tenured superstars when she announced her departure from the company in 2016.

The star announced some of the company's biggest matches, sang the national anthem at WrestleMania, and has even been part of some interesting feuds. From issues with Howard Finkle to rivalries with Charlie Hass, Jillian Hall, and Miss Kitty, Lilian was part of some memorable angles but none of these included a real match.

WWE's creative team were able to ensure that the former star's feuds were always settled by another female wrestler or in much more creative ways. Lilian won her feud with Howard Finkle when she was able to come out on top in an Evening Gown vs Tuxedo competition.

Despite not being an active part of the Women's Division during her time with the company, Lilian was still considered to be a Diva and was featured on many of the women's DVD releases in early 2000s.

Despite leaving the company in 2016 to care for her father, Garcia has returned several times and maintains a good relationship with WWE, but she is still yet to wrestle a match as of 2022.

#3. Former WWE Superstar Miss Elizabeth

Many current and former female wrestlers grew up idolizing Miss Elizabeth. As a woman in the middle of one of the biggest feuds in the history of the business, Elizabeth became a household name and was able to do so with beauty and grace in a time when there was very little female representation in the wrestling industry.

The former star was part of WWE in an era before the Divas of the company descended and was able to be a main part of the rivalry as well as often disappearing into the background whenever needed.

Elizabeth was the main valet for "Macho Man" Randy Savage and this led to a rivalry between her real-life husband and Hulk Hogan when she became the main reason behind the split of The Mega-Powers in 1989.

Despite being one of the most renowned female stars in the history of the company, Elizabeth never wrestled a match and is still yet to take her place alongside Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage in the Hall of Fame.

#2. Former WWE Superstar Eden Stiles/Brandi Rhodes

Brandi Rhodes has made quite a name for herself on the mic and in AEW over the past few years, following her departure from WWE in 2016.

Rhodes was known as Eden Stiles throughout her tenure with the company and was seen as the main ring announcer for Monday Night RAW in the latter part of her career.

Rhodes initially came to the company in the hopes of becoming a female wrestler but whilst working on her developmental deal down in FCW, she was pushed into a career as a ring announcer instead.

Rhodes was never able to wrestle a match during her time in WWE but since her departure, she has been able to return to her real name and is seen as an active performer for AEW.

It's unclear why Rhodes was never pushed into the Women's Division or given a chance to be part of any of the feuds between the Total Divas and real Divas during her time with Vince McMahon's company, but it's clear that there she was fully able to step up to the challenge.

#1. Former WWE Superstar Scarlett

Scarlett was a surprising release from the company back in 2021 when the former NXT superstar followed her partner Karrion Kross on the way out.

Scarlett's ability in the ring was well-known ahead of her move over to WWE, but she was positioned as a valet for Kross throughout their time together in NXT instead.

When Kross was promoted to the main roster it was believed that Scarlett would follow and she would finally be allowed to show what she was capable in the ring. As a natural storyteller, Scarlett's creative ability shone through as her fiancee's valet, and many fans were excited to see her become an active part of the Women's Division.

Instead, Scarlett was contracted to the company for around two years and was unable to wrestle a single match in that time.

It is worth noting that Scarlett wrestled one match before she was under contract, which came back in 2016 when she was easily defeated by fellow star Nia Jax on an episode of RAW.
