As seen on last night’s episode of WWE Monday Night RAW, the announcement of the First-Ever Fabulous Moolah Memorial Battle Royal which will take place at WrestleMania 34, was made.
The match will feature women from both the RAW & SmackDown LIVE Brands, as well as from the NXT Brand.
You can see the video package for the match below:
While the match received from many female WWE Superstars on social media, the match announcement didn’t garner the same type of reception from many fans. For those who may not be aware, The Fabulous Moolah was a very controversial person in the business for many years following accusations of her exploiting other women, being racist, and even running a prostitution ring using other female wrestlers.

Below are just some of the reactions from fans on Twitter regarding the announcement of The Fabulous Moolah Memorial Battle Royal:
In case anyone didn't know, The Fabulous Moolah was a fucking horrendous racist scumbag who sexually exploited black female wrestlers.
The WWE, is naming a battle royal after her in the name of "female empowerment." pic.twitter.com/uPh3OmydmM

The "Fabulous" Moolah was a serial abuser of women in every way possible. She made her career off of the suffering and exploitation of young women who trusted her with their lives & safety. She shouldn't be honored by WWE — they should be ashamed that they enabled her. #RAW

The Fabulous Moolah was a serial abuser. She made a career off the suffering and exploitation of women who trusted her with their lives & safety. She drugged women to keep them controlled. Sickening. https://t.co/ICl65ah1eO

Does a Fabulous Moolah Battle Royal mean that Moolah gets 35% of everyone's Mania payoff? #RAW

Fabulous Moolah ran a prostitution ring and whored out female trainees.

Fabulous Moolah is indeed trash. We shouldn’t be honoring her or showing her any respect based on everything she’s done. She’s a terrible person and if only everyone knew what she did behind closed doors, it would be a different story. The battle royal belongs to Chyna.
