I don't consider Trish's work to be overrated. Thinking about the rest of the women's division during her run, I think she was just a cut above. Compare her work to the Diva's of today, and she's a female HBK.
Honestly, I feel Trish was somewhat of a pioneer...only not in a good way. Hear me out....
Back in the day, WWE would hire somebody like Jazz, Chyna, or Nicole Bass. Jazz could actually wrestle. Chyna and Nicole Bass were at least menacing. Even someone like Molly Holly who was sorta pretty (talk about overrated, holy fuck TPWW) could wrestle a pretty decent match, but she wasn't popping off the screen or anything.
Trish comes along. A former fitness model who was hot as fucking fuck but couldn't wrestle worth a lick. Through some hard work and dedication, she became a pretty fucking good worker (for a woman). I honestly think that Trish's transformation is what made the WWE think 'Well fuck, let's just hire hot chicks and they'll get good eventually, fuck the monster that can work', and the modern Diva was born. The only problem is, not as many women today give as much of a fuck as Trish did.
