Yeah...but it was supposed to be folks who carried them to "good matches."
Oh yeah. Good point.

The beautiful thing was nobody cares if the chicks' matches were any good back then.

Back then they understood that the only way to make people care about unathletic, slow, awkward, chick matches was to make them hot and put them in skimpy outfits.

To be fair the ones who could work got respect from the fans too. You could have the eye candy and the workers without judgement being passed, unlike today's culture.
Jax would never be anywhere near a ring back in those days as she is neither.

She would have had a shorter run as a spectacle...then would have gotten shit canned when they realized no one would drop a dime to see her.

Booker T's title defense versus Lex Luger was epic, where Luger immediately put him in the Torture Rack and seemingly rendered him unconscious with it, only for the referee to reveal the match had not yet officially begun. The bell is wrung and Luger goes to work on a seemingly helpless Booker T, only for the champion to heroically battle back and pull off the win.

Dave Boy Smith was notorious for being unreliable, in spite of his immense talent, so it may very well be true.

He was a weird one. His ability was essentially right in the middle of super athletic Scott Steiner, and roided to the gills, can barely move Scott Steiner.
