You can feel how she hates doing this...pretty terrible material to work with, and she's half-assing it too absolutely this. for anyone thinking she's taken over AJ's face persona, it's because the writers apparently think this is what a female face is supposed to sound like. They write all of the women the same. Instead of letting them get by on just their merits and personality's. (like NXT) They did it with forced promo's with AJ, and now they're doing it with forced, god-awful promo's with Paige. Sure she botched, but I think that if they were allowed to just talk and be themselves the promo's would be a million times better. This goes for AJ as well who I always thought had horrible delivery. I feel really bad for Paige. The poster that said she seems uncomfortable on the main roster I also agree with. I don't blame her. It annoys me that the people that write the promo's actually get paid. Indeed. Whoever's been writing for women on the main roster has no idea how to do so. |

I dunno, they took it out but the fact that she mentioned Botchamania says to me they gave her some leeway with the promo.
For the love of God, stop with "THIS IS MY HOUSE!". It's become terribly annoying.

Yeesh, did she get shitfaced before she went out? The slurring, the weird "TAMINA TAMINA TAMINA", it's like she thought she had the night off, went out with friends and then they rang her like "Yo, we need you to cut a promo tonight", so she dragged herself away from the club and hopped in the ring a little bit hazy.

Wouldn't be shocked if she didn't find out until that night she had a promo, given the constant rewrites WWE does. |

Yikes, it was bad. She's not the most confident speaker usually but that was particularly poor, made even worse by the fact that Naomi was really good.
It's funny she dissed Naomi for having no personality then got outshone by her. Same thing happened on NXT 3 in one of the trash talk challenges with AJ....who then lost the challenge to Naomi!

Lol at least she didn't pull a drunk promo ala Jake Roberts Maybe there was a discrepancy with her and the promo writers right before she came out. She probably didn't like what they wanted her to read and said screw it I'll do it myself. Then when she came out it was almost deer in the headlights where she just talkes fast than she could think. I like your club theory though |

To bring up that handy Kevin Nash quote again (paraphrasing): "guys who have never gotten laid and never been in a fight are writing about sex and violence".
That sums up the WWE in a nutshell. All women are the same and tapping out is for cowards. Gotta love it.

All women are the same and tapping out is for cowards. Gotta love it. WWE's bad writing, and it is bad, is never an excuse to give credence to anything Kevin Nash ever says. That said, I've never been sold on Paige as this revolutionary savior-of-the-division-performer, so she can't make WWE's awful material work. Few can. |

Ugh I'm torn on this. On the one hand Im glad Paige and Naomi got some good quality in ring promo time. I also like that this feud is dealing more with "I think I'm better than you because of my talents." Rather than "I think I'm better than you because I'm prettier/stole your man/other superficial b.s."
I thought Naomi was really good here and I do love this tough, cocky heel role they've given her. Its a refreshing character and I hope is the standard going forward with the division.
I don't think Paige was as bad as some of you but it wasn't great. Bless her heart. Like Roman, short and sweet seems to be best with her.

I didn't find Paige's promo was nearly as bad as some are saying,I do agree with what lesleymoon, Paige is better with shorter promos.
If WWE has a problem is that they structure their promos to be largely the same. Not everyone needs a long promo. The only person they really do a good job with in this regard is Lesnar in that they keep him with Paul Heyman who can sell pretty much anything.

Nikki Bella comes out to save Paige....then attacks her. Wouldn't you rather one of your contenders eat a beat down kayfabe wise?
The only person who is clearly a face or heel in this is Naomi.
