Of the modern era, I think there have only been a handful of really big name female wrestlers. Chyna was probably the the first real breakthrough female as she was in the Royal rumble, held the IC title and of course, did Playboy!
Other than her and Stratus, probably the only other modern female wrestler of note is Lita. Lita was never afraid to take a bump, but was far to injury prone and shit on a mic.
All other female wrestlers are either too new (Mikki James, Beth Phoenix), wasted opportunities (Victoria) or not proper wrestlers (Stacy Kiebler, Torrie Wilson & Maria Kanellis).
There were a few other names during the attitude era, but other than Chyna, I think all the others fitted the same criteria as those listed above as well.
Trish was one of the few who has managed to go from eye candy manager, to genuine woman wrestler!
