In this episode, Stephanie and Josh explored WWE&#8217;s early and sporadic history with women in the &#8217;80s and early &#8217;90s before delving into the sleaze of the Attitude Era. Steph endured Josh&#8217;s constant discussion of breasts as they moved through the early 2000s and into the divas era, where things started to turn around. The discussion finally made it to modern day women&#8217;s wrestling, where Josh and Steph made a judgment on whether or not it&#8217;s currently worse or better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FREE VERSION: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/episode\/worse-or-better-episode-8-hello-ladies-steph-josh-look-at-ups-and-downs-of-quality-of-women-s-wrestling-in-wwe-through-the-years--72289063\">AUDIO LINK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>AD-FREE VIP VERSION:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/android\/legacyuploads\/wp-media\/2026\/06\/20260601ADFREEWOB.mp3\">VIP AUDIO LINK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>NOT VIP?
