Daffney

[8.0] "She was ahead of her time and simply worked in the wrong era. Her gimmick and style would have fit in perfectly. She will be missed."

[9.0] "Watching her Dark Side of the ring a few days ago made me want to rewatch some more of her work, and GOD I forgot how good she was. Isaac Gore has a "Top 35 Moves of Daffney" on youtube I highly recommend, and I always forget just how deep her offense was, and how well rounded she us, Uncharacteristically technical for a spooky wrestler, and with enough speed and agility to add intensity to her matches. She and Melina deserve co-credit for the Splits' hold in women's wrestling as a piece of character and offense, that alone made a creative addition to women's wrestling that diversified it from the mens' product in a very good way. She was a KILLER character. I mean she truly felt insane, no one other nutjob character has ever felt as genuine as her, and as a bipolar person myself, I can definitely see how her lived experience influenced it. Absolute legend, Deserves to be in someone's HoF. Rest in peace."

[8.0] "[8.0] Daffney is such a beautiful angel . She was a one of a kind wrestler that pulled no punches on being fearless in the ring. I loved her work in WCW during the company's final years, but her TNA if I can describe it as "A Big Fish in a small wrestling organization." Once the 2010s happened, I stopped watching TNA once Darth Hogan and his washed up Ex-WWE friends entered the picture and it went downhill from there. Also, Daffney would've been a champion and star, but unfortunately, with many stories about wrestlers being dealt with mental illness and the problems with CTE, the injuries proved too much and TNA released her with zero farewell appearance. Because of the poorly timed injuries she suffered, TNA did Daffney dirty and shame on them for their seemingly lack of a Wellness Policy, and for not taking care of Daffney's medical bills. Dixie Carter is terrible at her job and I hope she gets blacklisted from professional wrestling. By looking back to some of her matches in TNA, probably one of my favorite matches from her was the Monster's Ball Match vs. Taylor Wilde at Sacrifice 2009, which was quite honestly, Daffney's biggest peak in her career. She is so underrated that TNA Creative just doesn't know what they're doing during the state of the Knockouts Division after 2009 was over. Daffney had ton of potential, and if I were TNA right now, they might want to regret about Russo, Dixie, and a poorly run Creative Team in the early 2010s. If Daffney was here right now if she was still with us, she would've done so much more in her career. I'd never met Daffney in a wrestling event before , but she was ahead of her time and tell her 2000s self and say : "You Are The Scream Queen of wrestling . Don't let anyone take that away from what you love ." Rest In Heaven, Daffney."

[8.0] "I miss Daffney. I remember where I was when the news broke, she left that much of an impression on me. I am actually a HUGE mark for her storylines with David Flair, Crowbar, and Stacy Keibler in WCW. I loved them as a kid, I love them as an adult. She also tried to do some fun stuff in TNA, but you can only do so much with what you're given if what you're given is less than nothing. Daff just needed someone, anyone to give her a chance. She was a solid worker that could get through matches without injuring her opponents, and her character work carried a ton of storylines throughout her career. Underrated, underused, underappreciated. <3"

[8.0] "Consistent overachiever. Could make the unwatchable something you couldn't bare to miss. Made chicken salad & sides with dessert to boot from chicken crap. Went all in all the time and basically forced others to up their game to keep up. You can't help but get a bit upset with how she was treated & how things ended. She had a unique and stand out look as well. Worked HARD and I can only appreciate that. The biggest caveat is some of her material "isn't my thing" but her devotion to EVERYTHING was always extraordinary and again, overachievers must be praised. 8.25"

[8.0] "She was really over towards the end of WCW. She had a great look and a unique voice and she was a great actress and became a surprisingly good wrestler in TNA. It's a shame that things went the way they did for her. R.I.P"

[7.0] "Poor Daffney. R.I.P. Severely mistreated by TNA who abused her willingness to risk her body to entertain. Daffney was honestly one of the very few highlights of a dying WCW, and she learned fairly quickly how to become a capable worker and take bumps, while the entertaining part just came naturally to her. Through her career she could've filled a a charcuterie board with the various gimmicks shed undertake (to name a couple- Shark Girl, Sarah Palin)- and she was always entertaining and you could tell she always gave it 1000%. I wish that the industry gave her that back."

[6.0] "Daffney was easily the best character in the Crowbar/David Flair gang. The crazy lady who would take a swat at the opponents reminded me of Sensational Sherri back in the day. She was one of the few good characters in WCW's life support days."

[8.0] "Very underrated. Daffney was a wonderful valet, also able to perform at a decent level, as shown by her run in TNA. First of all, she is most often remembered for her alliance with David Flair, but in addition to performing in WCW, she also managed to become part of Second City Saints in ROH, wrestled in SHIMMER and performed in many independent promotions. A charismatic performer who showed that she loved what she was doing."

[8.0] "I would say that she was a very underrated worker. She had all of the talent in the world. She was pretty much ahead of her time. She is missed greatly."

[10.0] "An amazing talent in her own special way, Daffney brought a style that no other woman had at the time, and was genuinely super over without even having to take her clothes off. Daffney was a solid in ring worker and an amazing actor, playing a character with intensity and passion that no one else could really replicate. Rest in peace, Daffney. it truly goes to show that mental health is a bitch, and people really need to take it more seriously then it already is. it's already taken Hana Kimura and Ashley Massaro from us, and now it's taken Daffney."

[7.0] "I've always had a soft spot for Daffney. For someone who was more of a manager than a wrestler she popped up in many different promotions and managed to capture 2 primarily male competed-for championships. Enjoyed her run in TNA also, despite her being treated like a crash test dummy. I'm truly sad to hear her passing. R. I. P miss Daffney."

[9.0] "Consistently great performer in any number of supporting roles, and never failed to work her ass off. Her passing is especially tragic, you never heard a bad word about her from anyone."

[10.0] "During WCW's dying years, Daffney was a breath of fresh air. I found her most interesting in TNA during the Dr. Stevie angle. She did great character work and could act very well. RIP"

[7.0] "During the blonde bimbo years of WCW, Daffney was a very welcome breath of fresh air. David Flair had really been struggling to get over & I think Daffney helped him get interesting. I was never sold on the Sarah Palin gimmick she did in TNA (despite Daffney not doing too bad playing that role), but she had a better character when she reverted back to her old self & then worked against Abyss."

[9.0] "I always thought she was very underrated in her years post-WCW. Few have ever matched her character work, gimmicks, attire/look, comedy, acting. Sadly and stupidly, both WWE and ROH passed on her. Glad to see she had a "final act" with TNA, even if they didn't keep her - and others - safe, ultimately leading to injuries and her retirement."

[7.0] "Daffney was a lot of fun back in WCW, if a tad strange. Her stint in TNA didn't end so well for her, but she proved there that she was a good wrestler, and an even better personality to have around. Right now, she's slightly annoying in her bits as a non-wrestler, but she's still Daffney."

[10.0] "The original anti-Diva. There wasn't anyone like her when she hit the scene in the dying days of WCW (of which she and her partner Crowbar were a highlight. ) Despite not having much championship success due to her career being cut short, she will be remembered for her screams, her great in ring prowess and her shining example of what a female wrestler who wasn't afraid to push boundaries could be."

[6.0] "Daffney was alright. All I seem to really recall regarding Daffney was her "Sarah Palin" gimmick back in 2009 and she pulled off that role pretty convincingly in hilarious fashion. She was alright."

[9.0] "She's really got a lot more to offer. Her submission skills are quite adept. I've seen her perform a modified shiranui; that's pretty impressive. I'd like to think WWE would somehow acknowledge her for her achievements in WCW."

[10.0] "Daffney is one of the best wrestlers today. She is agile, and technically sound. She is a talented wrestler, who can put on a great match against almost anyone."

[10.0] "The best character in the women's division plus an amazing ability for bumps."
