... and the Divas are pissed!
First, the article: www.wwe.com/inside/beth-phoenix-natalya-save-divas-division
And the Diva responses:
@thebellatwins The Bella Twins:
Wow wwe definitely woke up 2 an embarrassing article you wrote... Well u wanted to know everyone's thoughts @wweuniverse, Here's Nikki B's
First off.... Um you want me to slap you with all of my awards and championships I have won? I was a #1 athlete... Which other Diva was?
Secondly, Bri & @realkellykelly have been the only entertainment that has happened 2 the Diva's Division & have worked harder than anyone!
Thirdly, I've seen 2 girls the past few weeks try as hard as they can to be "models" while us "models" have busted our butts.....
Oh and good luck with the up and coming Divas.... Sure you'll make a lot of money with them.... Um actually NOT!
Lastly, @realkellykelly & Us are better than anyone in the past so Katie Raymond check your self and come read this article to my face! NB
@thebethpheonix: Beth Phoenix
Its not the Divas Division that needs saving, but the WWE Universe. Myself and @natbynature are on a mission to make you change your minds..
As long as I can remember I have worked my butt off and been underappreciated while the crowd adores @realkellykelly and @evemarietorres...
I am tired of looking and being the best and being passed over time and time again. Im done asking for approval. And just getting started
Most of all, the WWE Universe WILL listen. Because We will MAKE YOU. #DivasofDoom
@evemarietorres Eve Torres:
Don't ever let anyone undermine your hard work, label your character, or set limits to your potential. #BeliEVE!
wwe I'd love to step into the ring whomever wrote this, & c who needs saving. #Iwillbootypopinyourfacethenmakeyoutap wwe.me/6kZ8Y
Pretty sure that The Bellas are being more than a little Kayfabey (at least I hope), but interesting stuff nonetheless.

First, Brie Bella wins the Divas Championship. Diva purists cringed. Then, Kelly Kelly - who has improved markedly inside the ring - netted the butterfly title. Diva purists started pointing fingers and lashing out. This can't be happening. Not in a division that has seen the likes of Moolah, Trish Stratus, Lita and Melina bear the Women's Title. How are these "model" Divas getting their names etched in the history books? Do only "pretty faces" matter?
*snip*
And so in came these sisters of destruction, carrying holy water and a torch. One was destined to dominate the ring, the other was born to an impressive bloodline. Both have worked tirelessly on their craft. This isn't to say the other Divas haven't, but Beth and Natalya's livelihood isn't on the posters or the calendars. Their livelihood is made from breaking bones and taking names. That doesn't necessarily make them saviors, but it certainly gives them purpose.
It might be easy to constantly search or compare the current crop of Divas to Lita and Trish, though an understanding must be made: There will never be another Trish Stratus or Lita. Any comparisons made to them are unfair. With talented new Divas like A.J. impressing in their squared-circle prowess and not-quite-Divas-yet like Maxine and the exciting Naomi waiting in the wings, the future looks bright for the Divas division.
So does the Divas division need to be saved? Not just yet. But Beth Phoenix and Natalya are certainly doing their share to rejuvenate it.
