'THE 2015 PWI FEMALE 50' #1 PICK SURROUNDED IN CONTROVERSY

Did the number one pick in the recently released Pro Wrestling Illustrated "Female 50" set well with the other ladies in the business -- and the fans? There is a VERY hot topic of controversy and Bill Apter puts PWI Editor Dan Murphy to task and explain how he arrived at his decisions in this "Female 50" ...

Kudos for the placement of Santana Garrett. She's really kicked butt this year.

PWI is a still a great publication, it´s "Wrestling" nowadays that isn´t that great. Or at least to an old school fan like me, it just doesn´t cut it. It´s like an action movie\video game now... but I might check out THIS issue in particular. Sasha rules BTW

Nikki deserves this. She's the best female wrestler in the world.. Not just WWE, best in the world.

TNA's female wrestlers are called Knockouts, Mr. Apter.

I respectively disagree with Nikki being #1.. I think Santana Garrett should be #1. She has 4 or 5 titles, & nwa title for awhile now..

Not because I'm old school but The legendary Fabulous Moolah God rest her soul would kick Paige's behind all over the arena and end it with oh let's say an old fashion classic move that till this day I see it I still pop the pile driver I miss all the woman from the old days not taking anything away from the divas of today I like them think they are unbelievable but Sensational Sherri, Moolah, Mae young and Wendi Richter hold a special place in my heart of course Elizabeth as well but she didn't wrestle God rest her beautiful soul as well

That's because of stuff like this that PWI is no longer taken seriously.PWI should stop being WWE centric. Even if WWE is the biggest promoton in the world it certainly isn't the best
There's great wrestling all over the world. One good example of this is Joshi Wrestling wich is why Nikki Bella being PWI Female #1 doesn't make any sense. There's 15 year olds in Japan who wrestle better than her. And Joshi wrestlers surely draw better than her.
