The amount of effort WWE has put into Layla's title run would suggest she is ready. She won't be the focus of the show, she won't get booked in big angles, she will be required to wrestle maybe 3 minutes (if that) on television every week.
Heck it took me a good few seconds to remember who the Diva's CHampion was on RAW after seeing the Battle Royal graphic. And I like Layla.

The divas title has never had any real prestige, and several title reigns have come out of nowhere, so her winning the title wouldn't be out of place. If they wanna build it up then she shouldn't win, but thats not a priority for them.
She has improved considerably though. Her matches on Superstars (w/Alicia Fox vs Beth/Nattie) and NXT (vs Tamina, w/Caylee Turner vs Tamina/Paige) have shown her in a good light. She's not the lost rookie she was.

She stood in line and waited her turn. Now it's her turn. that's how this title works.

Layla pretty much went months without appearing on TV, during her reign. Casper is ready to be Diva's champ at this point.

She's nice to look at. Doesn't that count for something? It means everything these days.

The past few weeks she's had a couple of backstage segments, a couple of matches, and the a very, very, slight hint of a storyline.
Isn't that basically all you do as champ?

Being appointed the Honorary Sheriff of the Shampoo Aisle at your local pharmacy carries more prestige than the Divas Championship at this point.

Every person in this thread is ready to be Diva's champion - even the males.
It's like asking, "can you handle eating a saltine cracker?"

Can't work, no real character development, poor promo ability.
She's absolutely ready. Those qualities put her in elite company with many former women's champions that had similar traits.

I like Katelyn I really do, but I'm not even sure she's ready to be on TV let alone champion...she looks really green in that ring.

Regardless of how the division is treated, it is the only women's title in WWE and there are some talented women on the roster, so I think there is still a case of whether or not someone is 'ready' to carry the title. Rosa Mendes has been there for four years and never won it, cos she's f***ing awful by any standard.
Kaitlyn isn't ready yet, but she soon will be. The improvements she's made in the ring in just two years have been pretty staggering, some of the matches she's had on NXT and Superstars (admittedly against more experienced opponents) have been pretty much botch-free and, dare I say it, quite entertaining. Plus she comes across as really natural in promos and backstage segments, I'm surprised she's being run down so much in this thread.
She's already way ahead of Rosa, Alicia, and probably Kelly, I can imagine her ranking among the top 'model wrestlers' in time if she sticks around and keeps improving at her current rate.

Like it matters, just another warm body for the belt to chill against.

The title is so worthless, one doesn't have to be ready. There's no meaningful criteria to be Divas champion Yup. The title and the division is absolutely meaningless, so who really cares? Give her a run.

Maryse, Alicia Fox, Kelly Kelly and Nikki Bella have been Divas Champion at some point. Kaitlyn is no better or worse than any of them. Lilian Garcia could hold the title and it wouldn't disparage it anymore than it already is.

Well you know something dude, Kaitlyn is ready, brother. She's been up and down the road and has been pumping iron and working out her 24 inch pythons. she's got the look and she's ready to take it to the next level, jack. 9/10 would push.

I wonder if Kaitlyn will bring the Divas belt to NXT since she still wrestles on that show.

Her match with Eve tonight was awful, Kaitlyn is only good if her opponent can carry her. If she does win the title which it looks like she is, her reign will be a bigger disaster than Layla's current reign.
