Vince and/or Dunn obviously have a boner for her. She'll be back no matter what she does.

Normally don't play this card but I wonder what this thread would be like in terms of tone if she was a man and not a woman.
She has a pretty huge passionate fanbase. What's the harm?

It's funny, people talk about her having an obsessive fanbase who worship her and everything she does, and while that's true, there seem to be just as many people, more people on here in fact, who have a disturbingly deep grudge against her that goes beyond not enjoying her as a performer and into genuine personal hatred and sometimes outright misogyny. 'Haha, she has a flat ass, what a loser!' grow up, guys.

To me a book is a better way of addressing your fans than a crummy 2 hour shoot interview with crummy interviewer with a generalised list of questions who never asks the obvious and not so obvious follow up questions. She had a more than full career by Diva standards: worked babyface and heel, worked on dozens of PPVs and there were times on Raw she would get like 40-50 minutes of screen time. Unless your stance is no Woman in Wrestling can write a book I don't see what the problem is here.

Then again, some of us have clearly stated reasons for disliking her that has nothing to do with the fact that she's a woman. But, I understand the need some people have to put everyone they don't agree with in a category with a convenient label.

That pretty much sums it up for me as well. She's an example of a hot girl who is incredibly unattractive to me because she tries too hard to get attention and be cute and steal our hearts. She reminds me of an annoying little girl trying to be a sexy grown up woman and wanting everyone to take her so seriously. Your main reason for disliking her is basically 'I don't find her hot' and it has nothing to do with her being a woman. Riiiiight. Anyway, that's not the issue, it's popping up in threads that clearly aren't aimed at you just to blindly hate on someone. Does she really annoy you that much? A 'Layla is writing a book' thread would go much differently, put it that way.

Let's see how the book turns out
Maybe it'll be a good tale of someone coming from nothing and making it big, maybe it'll be something that gives credence to some stuff that Trent Baretta alluded to.

What did Trent allude to?

No, that's not even close to what I said. In fact, I even clearly stated that she WAS hot, so I don't know what you're reading. If you can't follow the conversation any better than that, I don't really see a point in continuing. Regardless, the behavior I adequately described is annoying in either a man or a woman. Just because a woman is the subject of the conversation does not mean that the her being a woman is the reason for the conversation.

My issue wasn't even with you, just the generally nasty tone of the thread, which you weren't really part of, my bad.

What did Trent allude to? Something along the lines of a "loser kid getting accepted into the popular crowd and becoming crazy with power" or something like that. May not have been about AJ, but it seemed like it may have been. AKA AJ getting a big push in 2012 and using her newfound place in the company to screw over Trent since they used to date

If AJ had any power, I wish she'd book herself a decent storyline. Jay Lethal was much classier when he was asked about AJ.

Hopefully WWE will GiveDivasAChance.....so some online wrestling fans will be able to inexplicably despise them for the grave crime of....uh...writing books.

Trent went super bitter for a while after he was released, openly calling Kofi an asshole on Twitter without elaboration among other things if I remember rightly. Maybe he fell foul of Punk's clique, which by then included AJ, or something.

Well, if there's anyone I'd trust to write eloquently and truthfully about the grim reality of being a woman in WWE, it's AJ. I guess how much she holds back is dependent on whether she's still intent on staying with the company or not, and whether the Brooks family wants to risk yet another lawsuit. Lita's book laid it out as pretty grim, too. And that was even before the Edge affair stuff.
