Top 10 AEW Females 2023

Aew has a stacked roster and I was recently asked about who are my fave female wrestlers in AEW, 
So here are my top 10 of this year :)
10: Jade Cargill
The longest reigning TBS champ and also with a long reigning undefeated streak, Jade left AEW earlier this year for new pastures and no doubt she will be an even bigger success.

9: D.M.D. Britt Baker
Of course, I will put Britt on my list, she is an exceptional talent, and although we have seen less of her the past few months, she certainly is a staple in AEW.

8: Taya Valkyrie
Although Taya has been around for years and a fave of mine since appearing in TNA, she has gone to AEW this year and made a nice impact....no pun intended.

7: Skye Blue
A new talent that first emerged full of smiles and with lots of internet love for her *ahem* "asset" but since feuding with Julia Hart she has been getting darker and more violent and rocks a new look at the moment. A great athlete and even more mysterious gimmick.

6: Willow Nightingale
Another relatively new talent, Willow has exploded on the scene with her bold yet friendly nature and loveable smile and personality, I am happy enough to list her here as she has impressed me throughout her time.

5: Saraya
Saraya had an amazing moment this year in AEW ALL IN London unfortunately it was not capitalized up on. She still has it and is a draw.

4: Hikaru Shida
Shida is always a phenomenal talent, and she always deserves to be on any AEW womens list.

3: Kris Statlander
Since returning from injury and beating the undefeated TBS champ, Kris has been on fire and keeps getting better with each defence.

2: Julia Hart
A cheerleader turned into a dark and gothic, mysterious force of nature with The House Of Black. I am happy she won the TBS title recently, she has been built up so well and gets better and better every week. She is also AEW's youngest champion in history at just 22 years old.

1:Toni Storm
It's Toni's world, and we are clearly living in it. The descent into her madness and Hollywood stardom has been incredible, and in a short time she has run up 3 title reigns as AEW women's champ.

That is my list all done, look out for my top 10 tag teams and AEW Male Wrestlers lists, both coming out soon! Thanks for reading and visiting, Stay Shiny!

Helo and welcome back to my blog, here I am listing my top 10 fave female fronted bands. 
Any genre and era are welcome here. 
With the bands listed I will be listing a bit of info on them followed by my fave song by them.

10: Within Temptation
Within Temptation is a Dutch symphonic metal band founded in April 1996 by vocalist Sharon den Adel and guitarist Robert Westerholt.  Fave song by them is Dangerous, such a great collab with Howard Jones. 

9: Paramore
Paramore is an American rock band from Franklin, Tennessee, formed in 2004. The band currently consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York and drummer Zac Farro. Williams and Farro are founding members of the group, while York, a high school friend of the original lineup, joined in 2007. My fave song is Misery Business an obvious choice but i'm only picking one song per artist to rep the band here.  

8: Halestorm
Halestorm is an American rock band from Red Lion, Pennsylvania, consisting of lead vocalist and guitarist Lzzy Hale, her brother drummer and percussionist Arejay Hale, guitarist Joe Hottinger, and bassist Josh Smith. God are these guys amazing, i seen them live once and holy shit did they blow me away and fave song I think i will go with Love Bites (But so do i).

7: The Cranberries
The Cranberries were an Irish rock band formed in Limerick, Ireland, in 1989 by lead singer Niall Quinn, guitarist Noel Hogan, bassist Mike Hogan, and drummer Fergal Lawler. Quinn was replaced as lead singer by Dolores O'Riordan in 1990. Zombie is such a powerful anthem its why its my fave song by them. 

6: Evanescence
Evanescence is an American rock band founded in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1995 by singer and pianist Amy Lee and guitarist Ben Moody. After recording independent albums, the band released their first full-length album, Fallen, on Wind-up Records in 2003. My fave song by them is Bring Me To Life, such a class anthem. 

5: The Pretty Reckless
The Pretty Reckless is an American rock band from New York City, formed in 2009. The band consists of Taylor Momsen, Ben Phillips, Mark Damon, and Jamie Perkins. The band released their debut studio album, Light Me Up, in August 2010. Fave song by them is Make Me Wanna Die because holy shit does that slap. 

 4: Nightwish
Nightwish is a symphonic metal band from Kitee, Finland. The band was formed in 1996 by lead songwriter and keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen, guitarist Emppu Vuorinen, and former lead singer Tarja Turunen. My fave song is Bye Bye Beautiful. 

3: Blondie
Blondie is an American rock band co-founded by singer Debbie Harry and guitarist Chris Stein. The band were pioneers in the American punk and then the new wave scene of the mid-1970s in New York. Fave song be One Way Or Another. 

2: Abba
ABBA are a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972 by Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. The group's name is an acronym of the first letters of their first names.Mama Mia would have to be my pick for my fave song of their but omg do they have some hits so it's hard to choose just one. 

1: Fleetwood Mac
Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band, formed in London in 1967. Fleetwood Mac were founded by guitarist Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood and guitarist Jeremy Spencer, before bassist John McVie joined the lineup for their self-titled debut album. Danny Kirwan joined as a third guitarist in 1968. Go Your Own Way is my pick for fave song of the Mac but again is it hard to pick just one song. 

So that's that, list all done. Did you like it? Do you like any of these? Did I forget your fave?

Top 10 Female Power Rangers!

Following up from yesterday's list (click here to read the list), here is my top 10 list of Female Power Rangers!

RULES OF THE LIST: ONE RANGER PER SEASON! Those who can morph but do not have ranger in their name are not on the list. 

With that said and done time to go back to action!

10: Mystic Force Blue
Madison is the compassionate and kind hearted member of the Mystic Force group.Madison is shy and not very open, however, she has helped many people. Also, she refers herself as the "sister with the common sense", in contrast to her sister V's hotheaded behaviour. Madison is the second female to be a Blue Power Ranger. I liked Maddie and i am like her in a way having same kind of personality being shy and kept to myself. She is a great character and has many great moments in the series. 

9: SPD Yellow
Z spent most of her life living on the streets - helping the homeless by stealing from those more fortunate. Z is the first female Yellow Ranger with a legitimate female Sentai counterpart, but not to have a skirt with her ranger suit. Previous six chosen female Yellow Rangers each didn't have a skirt with their ranger suit due to having male Sentai counterparts. Z can also create clones of herself. She is an interesting character who starts off in the series seemingly bad but ends up being nice and funny and inspiring. When Z was only 12, she was ridiculed for her genetic abilities and was once saved by a mysterious person in the shadows. The person turned out to be none other than Commander Cruger. This inspired a desire to protect others.

8: Wild Force Yellow
Before the wild force team had a red ranger their leader was Taylor the yellow wild force ranger making her the first Yellow Ranger to do so. Taylor is the second Ranger leader to lose leadership of her team without retiring first. The first was Jason Lee Scott the original Red Ranger. She was the Second Ranger to be a pilot before becoming a Power Ranger, after Joel Rawlings and before Scott Truman. She is the first and only female Second-in-command Ranger. Taylor is the first female ranger to have a sword as her personal specialised weapon. Taylor was not likeable at first being hard and demanding team leader but she slowly eased out of that and showed her true side, she is a tough no nonsense power ranger. She retired at the end of the season as a ranger and went back to flight school where she teaches new people and has so many people look up to her for her flight career and ranger career. A very tough respectable woman.

7: Ninja Storm Blue
Tori Hanson is the Blue Wind Ranger and is the first female Blue Power Ranger, in show history. I remember some people i know being like "what a girl is a blue ranger? a girl is a boy colour?" i remember just saying to those friends "its just a colour lets see what she is like before you judge." and my how those same people told me after a few episodes "i like her you were right" i was like i told you so....anyway....Tori is the logical and sensible member of the Ninja Rangers and a tomboy. She can be charmed by her teammates and loyal to her friends, but sticks up for Cam when her fellow Rangers pick on him and has an innate skill for ending conflicts with words instead of fists. Tori has an affinity for water, surfing in her spare time and mastering water based fighting techniques while training at the Wind Ninja Academy. The two-part episode Shane's Karma takes place on Tori's birthday, and the cake that Dustin is holding at the end of the second episode has eighteen candles on it. This makes Tori one of the few Rangers whose age is stated in any way, directly or indirectly. A great ranger and character she is. 

6: Light Speed Pink
A paramedic and pink power ranger as if you could not tell already what an asset Dana is to the lightspeed rescue team. Dana is serious, intellectual, caring and level-headed. She gathers the team together from all over Mariner Bay, and is a valuable asset to the team as one of the Rangers. Dana has a very brief stint as a model, but she resigns when it starts to interfere in her Ranger duties. Dana is the first Pink Ranger to break the tradition of having a name that begins with a "K-" sound. Another great memorable ranger and character.

5: In Space Pink
Cassie is the only Pink Ranger of the Zordon Era to not have her name begin with a K funny enough. I really liked Cassie she was a very interesting character. Her weapon satellite stunner was cool i also thought. Overall i enjoyed her character and her contribution to the story. 

4: Lost Galaxy Yellow
I really liked Maya and Kendrix but i will have to pick Maya over Kendrix. Maya has the ability to understand and talk with the Galactabeasts and the world around her. On occasion, she's received clairvoyant dreams or feelings concerning the Lights of Orion, Mike, Kendrix and Trakeena's rise to power after the death of Scorpius. She's also a skilled fighter and her fighting style is wild and she is unwilling to give up the fight. So this is what makes Maya a really good ranger and character.

3: Dino Thunder Yellow
First off she is a good singer and her power of the Ptera scream is deafening. A determined individual Kira is much like a combination of Trini and Kimberly the original female rangers. Kira shared screen time with more Rangers than any other female Ranger in Power Rangers history, with a total of 28 (the other four Dino Thunder Rangers, six Ninja Storm Rangers, nine S.P.D. Rangers, including Kat Manx, Adam Park, Xander Bly, and six Overdrive Rangers). Kira is the only Ranger to fight with two veteran rangers. In this case, Tommy Oliver and Adam Park, both of which were on the same team at one point in time.  She is the first Yellow Ranger to return to another season on her own, without her original team members. All Yellow Rangers before Kira have either returned for teamups or were never seen again. Kira is the first female Yellow Ranger in a skirt since Ashley (since the previous four females were all based on male Sentai characters). She is a strong female character liked by all. 

2: Time Force Pink
Jen was the second female Ranger to serve as a team leader (the first being Delphine), and the first (and currently only) Pink Ranger to serve as a team leader. However Kimberly Ann Hart counts somewhat if one has seen the Wild West Rangers multiparter, as she serves as the leader of that particular group of Rangers for one episode only. One of the best pink's easy. I also met the actress who played Jen Scotts in London, Erin Cahill is a very lovely person. I think Jen was a great female character and who's story was really gripping to watch as she was dealing with a love triangle and being a leader and losing her boyfriend and with time differences in being in the past. Easily a fan fave too.

1: MMPR Pink - Kimberly
The first and the best,the 90s crush, the fan favourite. Kimberly was everything for us 90s kids haha. She was a capable gymnast and would later show that she also has some musical and artistic talent. Kimberly coined the phrase "Morphinominal!", which has been used in many Power Ranger shows since the character's departure from the series.Kimberly, along with Tommy, Billy, Adam, Rocky and Jason are the only Rangers to appear in more than 100 episodes. Kimberly is the only female to reach this amount.All these feats and her amazing character and story make her number one for me. 

Alright and that's this morphenomenal list wrapped up. 

Thanks for stopping by as ever. 

Stay tuned for more ranger list's and other stuff from me.
