Did this occur to anyone else?

Question

TNA seems to be making some of the women on its show out to be submissive b!tches? Like...Ms. Brooks, Sharmell and Karen Angle.
Yeah I know most of you hate TNA but its just pissing me off how they're doing that.

WWE does it as well but not as badly.

i know its part of the characters and storylines but it just bothers me a bit.

Answer 1

Not Sharmell.

Karen Angle and Ms. Brooks are with narcissistic wrestlers, so it makes sense that it appears that way.

**I know, it bothers me, too, especially since it happens often in WWE and TNA.

Answer 2

Sharmell is not portrayed as "submissive", she never has been. Whether as Sharmell or "Queen Sharmell" she has always been his wife and partner.

Karen Angle. She and Kurt are both the same. Egotistical and both want to be the dominant one. Karen was only portrayed as "submissive" once as a ruse when the Angles were plotting something.

Ms. Brooks. She has been cast in more and more of a "submissive" role because TNA is trying to get Robert Roode over as a major heel. It's only been recently that TNA "revealed" that Ms. Brooks has a very sick mother and she needs the money Roode is "paying" her. The worse Roode treats her the more of a heel he seems. Kaz and Booker T have helped the storyline by coming to her rescue from time to time. TNA did the same earlier with Eric Young in the "submisive" role. Eric was able to break free of Roode; Ms. Brooks will, too, in the near future.

Answer 3

I agree with you on that, I hate it when TNA or the WWE turn women into submissive nothings. I much prefer women that think for themselves and take charge more.
