Disco Inferno was a part of Impact Wrestling’s Media Call and had some words to say about his views on women’s wrestling.
I am not a big fan of women’s wrestling,” said Inferno. “To me women’s wrestling is kind of like the WNBA. They’re the best female basketball players in the world, but they’re not as good as the guys.

“I’m not saying that there’s not a lot of talented women’s wrestlers. But the formula has shown in the past that regardless of your in-ring work, the more attractive you are determines how over you are.
“I am a fan of the women’s wrestlers that can combine good looks with good work. If there’s a girl out there whose work isn’t as good but she’s hotter and has sex appeal, I’m a fan of that.”
Inferno went on to say that too much time on TV is devoted to women’s wrestling and the product is diluted. He did, however, commend a former Impact Knockout for combining both sex appeal with in-ring ability.
“My favorite women’s wrestler of all time was Velvet Sky,” stated Inferno. “I thought the Beautiful People was a great gimmick for two female professional wrestlers. They looked great and had a great entrance and could wrestle. I was a big fan of that.
“But collectively, I’m not a big fan of women’s wrestling. They had that Mae Young Classic – I can’t watch that. Pro wrestling to me is based around grown men that want to fight each other….That’s just what I’m a fan of
Former Women of Honor champion Kelly Klein was quick to show her disapproval.
Then famed women’s wrestling trainer and fromer ECW/WCW/WWE Superstar Lance Storm chimed in.
Other fans noted how this is not new for Disco.
Not much needs to be said to compare Disco Inferno to the hundreds of great women’s wrestlers.
