1. State of our Divas Division

Okay so this is my first blog. I've never done this before. I recently got inspired to do these. I actually saw my first ever blog yesterday on Twitter. Everyone was talking about it, whether that be good or bad, it was being talked about. So basically I'm a wrestling fan, mostly for the WWE. I support Superstars and Divas. But speaking of Divas, in my first blog I'm going to address the state of our divas division.

Now I'm not doing this because I feel it's necessary, I'm doing this almost as a letter to Vince McMahon. A man who as he ages doesn't become wiser with our women in WWE. He lacks direction and focus when it comes to storylines and proper booking with our divas. We have some of the most talented women in the industry, yet he tends to focus on not wrestling but 3 minute matches on Raw and Smackdown.

A prime example of this is Paige, one of the best in our division. Paige comes from a family of wrestling royalty, which many do not know. Paige has a British type of wrestling, when she made her jump to WWE it was "too much". Vince and other creative members told her in a nutshell "hey you can't do that" or "hey slow it down". Now with present day Paige, she is one of the most talented divas on the roster, yet subjected to superkicks, clothes lines, headbutts, and a finisher. Her talent can't be showcased because in Vince's eyes divas can't outshine the men.

Another example is our divas champion Nikki Bella. And, of course, everyone knows I'm a big fan of the Bella Twins. However I'm gonna be honest with this blog here. Nikki Bella has been champion for 183 days. That's great right? That's a long time right? I mean it is great, she's the 4th longest reigning divas champion. Well not so fast. I love Nikki to death, but Vince has done terrible with her booking. It pains me to see our divas champion lose more matches than winning matches her entire reign. This is YOUR DIVAS CHAMPION, she represents the division as its champion, yet her sister Brie has been featured more and won more matches than Nikki in this current reign. Although Nikki and Brie are the most improved wrestlers on the divas roster to date, it doesn't get noticed because fans are blinded by the poor booking.

And my last argument is NXT! NXT, wow, what can I say? These girls are just..... I'm speechless. A little background on NXT, for those reading, it is the developmental program for WWE and is run by Triple H. Triple H, a man with focus and direction when it comes to booking and storyline creation. We've got girls down there like Charlotte, Sasha, Becky Lynch, Bayley, Dana Brooke, Carmella and Alexa Bliss. All these girls produce some of the best matches that I have ever seen when it comes to divas. Triple H lets these girls have input into their characters and matches. These girls go out and put on 12-18 minute matches on their "live specials" which is basically their PPV's. And during the week they have "one show" and it's an hour long. In that 1 hour of an NXT episode, they put on a better show than a 3 hour Raw at times. It's sad because these girls who are killing in NXT are gonna be lowered from 7-9 minute NXT matches to around 3-5 minute matches on Raw. It's so backwards. NXT, the developmental territory, is producing better storylines, booking, and matches than main roster. Most fans consider NXT a brand rather than the "rookie" land. Most fans can't wait for the day when Triple H takes over WWE.

In conclusion our main roster divas division is looked at by many as a joke. They're not utilizing the girls to their full potential. We have girls like Alicia Fox, Summer Rae, Emma, Cameron, and even Eva Marie who have yet to receive a proper, in-depth push towards the title. It's time for Vince to wake up and realize that the way he views the division is not even close to how the fans view it. Maybe he should take a page out of Triple H's book to see what fans buy. NXT Takeover, live specials, are more looked forward to than main roster PPV's. I want our divas division to be taken seriously and be looked at like "damn those girls kick ass" not "oh look here's another rematch between Paige and Nikki". I'll leave my viewers with this, I will always support the divas, however I will always wonder "what if" with our Divas Divsion! Thank You!
