Combined Or Separate ?

[KWOAOA]

I've had mixed reactions about this subject so I wanted to get other peoples thoughts... In your circuit do you keep your male/female together in one circuit or do you do two different ones ?.. Currently I do two different ones but have thought about combining them.. However that then stems to my secondary question of how do you feel about Men vs Women wrestling ?.. This seems to happen a bit more often now than before as if I'm not mistaken Impact Wrestling had Tessa Blanchard face Sammi Calhoun for the Impact World Title in which I think Tessa won.. I've always had mixed thoughts of the Men vs Women wrestling I'm not really for it but with seeing it done a bit more frequently should I be okay with it ?
I know in my first creation of my female circuit (KVW) I mainly did it because the names of the females I couldn't really remember who was male or female but now in this new edition of it the female names are a bit more female if that makes any sense.. If not I had females from Japan and such in the first creation of it so having to remember who was who was the simple solution to split them but I've recently thought about combining them into one circuit

So let me hear ya thoughts

I keep them in the same circuit so they can interact. Most of my circuits are pre-2000 or at least pre 2005 as well, which makes a difference. I have had some mixed tags, but obviously with TNM I don't think you could run one where the woman always had to face the woman, so sometimes I just kind of "fixed" these matches. I am not really keen on man vs woman, although sometimes it can be okay in a gimmick sort of way. Just my personal preference, and hopefully don't come off as too sexist. We can suspend disbelief for so many things so we can suspend disbelief for man vs woman, but I just am not a fan of seeing a man hit a woman. Lots of stuff coming out now where woman are complaining about Transgendered and how it's not fair, how they are just stronger than a woman, so even the woman in these combat sports are saying it. At the same time I am a big fan of muscular/amazon style woman but not when they can't actually wrestle. I'm going to stop now before I get myself in too big of a hole.

Would you like a light down there ? it's looking kinda dark in that deep hole hahahaaa... I get it though I'm the same way as I said I'm not a fan of the men vs women and this transgendered thing (yes deal with it I called it a thing) is just something else that I'm unsure about.. Hell with that one comment I'm about 90% sure my hole is just as deep as yours if not deeper...

See after I posted and re-read my statement I thought I honestly don't know if anyone is going to want to touch on this topic cause it can be a little too "touchy" for some people and get some into hot water depending on how deep into this rabbit hole they want to go.

I very well will combine the two circuits I have and let them interact with one another since the names that I have now are easier to tell which is which.

Here in Quebec, we have the interesting case of Lufisto from +/- 15 years back. She started wrestling men in local promotions because at the time there weren’t that many women that could keep up with her. As you may or may not know, she was known not only for fighting against men but also as a deathmatch specialist. One could argue that her involvement against men culminated when she won the CZW Ironman title against Kevin Steen and held it for roughly 9 months. All that to say that it can be done if booked carefully. It didn’t hurt Steen either as he went on to hold titles in PWG, ROH and WWE of course.

Yes Lufisto, I remember interviewing her for my site a long time ago. I no longer have the interview as I lost many of them over the years but that is another excellent example of how if done properly it can work out. I think for me it maybe the mental block of Men battling Women...

Can the Weight Class Wizard be used to create a women's division?

I am pretty sure. I think you just include them.
