Kaitlyn vs Eve title match appreciation

[Sparkybob]

It was a fun and good match with , for a divas match, a hot crowd and Kaitlyn seemed genuinely happy that she won. I am happy that she has improve ten folds and hopefully she slowly gets more over with the crowd.

Now since she won she probably has to feud with tamina because she is the only other heel on the roster, before they could build towards Kaitlyn match with AJ presumably at mania.

Also might as well add her emotional tout after winning

i was so happy she won, it kinda makes me sad how she'll probably drop the title at Wrestlemania

Best match of the night. Amazing what happens when you give them time, a storyline and build.

[Kevin Hamilton]

It was an entertaining match. Kudos to both.

[Bang Bang Bart]

Props to both for keeping me emotionally invested. I actually cheered when the final outcome of the match came.

[PKO]

Echo everyone else's sentiments.

Well done girls.

[CH Punk]

Loved it and not on a "it was good for a Divas match" level, it was great regardless of the gender of the wrestlers.

[Richard]

It was a great match and moment. Maybe after tonight it'll open their eyes a bit on the Divas... maybe...

[FinalGwen]

Match of the night. Sad to see Eve go, because she really is talented in the ring. But Kaitlyn's developing well in-ring, and hopefully we'll get to see how she works with the other/remaining Divas in the division.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

Cannot even remember the last time I cared about the result of a divas match. I cheered in my living room when Kaitlyn won.

It was fun, sucks Eve is leaving since she has her character down so well.

[Krazee]

i was just so proud of Kaitlyn winning in our hometown

I think that kind of downplays the role that tonight's show being in Katilyn's hometown had. Their match last week was almost as long and had the same feud behind it, yet got the polar opposite crowd reaction from tonight. Same for their segment on the New Year's Eve show. WWE was smart to do it tonight rather than last week, next Monday's show, or at the Rumble.

Good for Kaitlyn to get her moment in her hometown. 2 1/2 years ago at this time, she hadn't even had her first match yet, and now she's one of the top two Divas. That's pretty cool.

Dat feud.

As much as they drew it out, at the very least, it wasn't about a guy, or who looks better, or them calling one another fat.

Just the title and revenge. 'Preciated

Exactly.


Hopefully, the E attempts to do more of this.

It is kind of an interesting thing, a prominent (if not neglected) wrestler is leaving the company, passes the torch to a young upstart.

It seems like every time they're pushing a male wrestler out the door it's to the benefit of an already made main eventer who doesn't need it. It feels like this is the first real passing of the torch in WWE in years. Not that that torch is really one I hold in high esteem but just judging from the reaction it seems to have gotten (I didn't see it myself) there appears to be a lesson to be learned here. Not to give WWE too much credit because I really don't think this feud would have had a definitive ending and was destined to go out on a whimper if Eve wasn't leaving.

When is a heel female champion in WWE not a total coward who talks a big game and runs when threatened? Maryse with Mickie James, Laycool with multiple Divas, the Bellas with Kharma. The only heel who didn't act that way was Beth.

That is build though. Everything they've done built to tonight, built to them doing a segment where Booker told Eve she couldn't run and couldn't get DQ'd, which made the match important. Either Kaitlyn was finally getting the title, in her hometown no less, or the excuses were over and she lost. From NoC until tonight it was Eve somehow screwing Eve out of the title match, out of the win or out of the title.

I remember either stuff getting good crowd reaction, not blow away but best I've heard for Divas' stuff in year.

[ededdneddy]

Sorry but this still doesn't make care one damn bit about Kaitlyn. I hope she drops the title soon.

They had a match last week and a segment the week before that, and you're the first one I've heard say the crowds weren't dead. In particular, on Diva Dirt two weeks ago after the 12/31 Raw, people commentating were saying the crowd actually hurt their segment because of how non-responsive they were.

So that's why I'm saying the hometown crowd factor shouldn't be downplayed. It never should, really. I remember shows where Sylvain Greiner or Hardcore Holly would wrestle in front of their hometown crowd, and people went nuts for them.
