Now, that doesn't mean I'm not for this idea. I think some of the best matches are the Women's Division on NXT. The problem is that it seems like whomever writes the shows on WWE television have no clue WHY the women on NXT are well respected.
I think it's really silly of Paige and the other Divas to come out and blame the Brooklyn crowd for not being behind them.
Did they not hear them cheering for Sasha? Did they not hear the loud OVATION Bayley and the Four Horsewomen had at the end of their match? I think they did, they just need to blame someone other than whomever is in charge.
It's not the Divas fault either. It's whomever books (or writes) this stuff.
You could argue that Nikki, Brie, and "Foxy" blaming the Brooklyn crowd can be a heel thing to do...but I can see similar things to Shawn Michaels or Bill Goldberg in Canada. These three in New York is going to follow them until the end of their careers.
These four should have been the face of this revolution.
Besides the terrible story line, I really dislike the "diva" term. That word is just a nice way of calling a women a bitch. They sure aren't referencing female opera singers, that's for sure.
They need to branch of the women into different angles and story lines. Right now they are all bunched up in different cliques fighting for "change" when there should be one that stands out and says "No, I don't care about change. I want that title."
WWE desperately wants #divarevolution to trend on Twitter every time. They want the phrase to be on t-shirts and want everyone to regurgitate that over and over again. WWE is pushing this so hard that the fans are turning on this, just like they turned on Roman Reigns. The givedivasachance hashtag was organic, started by true fans that saw all the great things that were happening on NXT and possibly other wrasslin' promotions. I don't understand why everything has to have a "face." Why does Stephanie McMahon have to be the person that introduces this new change? Why couldn't it just happen on its own? So if it were a success, we can have Stephanie McMahon take credit for it on TV every week? I'm sure that was part of the intent.
The women need to break off, have their own feuds, have their own builds, and have their own characters. Other than Sasha Banks, there isn't any of the NXT ladies that are much different. Poor Charlotte...wanting to distance herself from her father in NXT now needs to remind everyone who her father is each and every time now on WWE Raw. Also, what was the WWE thinking telling her to say the Four Horsemen were one of the most popular factions in WWE HISTORY. I know someone had to have told her to say that from up high. Can't reference "wrestling" or "wcw" on TV!
I sincerely hope someone, anyone can step back and watch NXT or ask Triple H for some pointers as to what to do to help jump start this story.
They are the ones that should #givedivasachance.
