What you loved:
- Top Manager - One of the best managers ever in wrestling, Sherri was a true heat magnet for anyone she managed, elevating both Macho Man and Shawn Michaels.
- In-Ring - Trained by The Fabulous Moolah, she had skills in the ring that made her a champion multiple times. She was the WWE Women's Champion for 441 days.
- Voice - Fantastic at lowering and raising her vocals during promos. Sherri had that famous scream, and did the background vocals to HBK's Theme.
- Look - She was great at reinventing herself, most famously with the painted face. Yes, this is a picture of her and the Undertaker hugging.
- Elizabeth Feud - She was a great aggressive foe to Miss Elizabeth.
Best comment comes via The Unmasked Superstar:
"The expression 'There’s only one …' is overused, but in the case of Sensational Sherri Martel it applies perfectly. As a wrestler, manager and larger than life performer, she was a unique personality. Sherri knew how to work up the crowd, draw heat, and was never afraid to jump in the ring, scrap with the boys and take some big bumps. And then there’s that voice and the crazy make-up. Sherri was an expert at the art of pro wrestling. 'Sensational' was an understatement."

What you loathed:
- R.I.P. - It's a shame she's gone, would be cool to see her paired up with today's talents.
- Voice - While she did it on purpose (classic heelin'), the yelling/shrieking could become aggravating.
- Col. Parker - In WCW (of course), this was probably one of her low-lights as a manager.
- No Competition - While she was a manager in the WWE, she didn't have many other women to feud with.

"She’s not around to manage Tyler Breeze on the main stage."
