I don't understand her employment at all. She's not over, has no charisma or mic skills, and she can't wrestle to the standard of anyone else on WWE television. There's nothing of value to her in the slightest. Same - on the rare occasions she appears now i'll pretty much always say 'she's STILL employed?!' Genuinely i'm sure she's a great person, but like Alicia Fox she feels completely out of step and out of time with the rest of the women's division. She's a useful person to have for things like the Rumble when they need an extra body, but i'd have rather someone else from NXT get the spot.

I feel like she got a split-second pop at the Rumble...then the crowd realized it wasn't Nia Jax and went quiet again.

Didn’t she used to have a surname?

Didn’t she used to have a surname? She does, silly. It's "a" So her name is actually Tamin but since the A is close enough spacing wise, they just call her Tamina to save people the trouble.

Didn’t she used to have a surname? Serious answer, yes. She was Tamina Snuka for like, two years or so in the middle of her run. And then they reopened the Argentino case and suddenly the family name was toxic.

I also thought it was Nia's music kicking in for a split second. She's not like the most terrible wrestler that ever existed but... she's probably the worst currently on the roster. every year they mostly have like a month of trying to push her... and then like 2 weeks later they seem to realize why they never use her. Yeah, it's like in 2010 when she came in, she was one of the better prospects they had. Because the roster was Beth Pheonix trying to get matches out of Kelly Kelly. But by 2020, her talent level sort of plateaued, and their recruitment these days has long overtaken her talent level. This is a good thing of course for the womens division.

She seems like a good person who is well liked, but she brings nothing to the table when it comes to any facet of wrestling. She cant cut a promo, she looks dangerous and sloppy to work with and causes the fanbase reach a level of apathy not seen since the heyday of Joe Gomez in WCW.

She may have debuted ten years ago, but with all the time she's spent sidelined with injuries, I'm pretty sure she's only been active for six.

To be fair, what have they done to make anyone care about her in the ten years since she's been there? Has she had one storyline?

I've said it before, and I'll say it again...at least she doesn't have that pseudo-racist entrance music anymore.
For that alone I can appreciate her tenure.
I like that she finally found a look/gear that works for her. I think her whole visual is fantastic.
But then she gets in the ring...just let her be the female member of The Bloodline, as a manager, and never wrestle.

I thought she was going to slow down the whole thing, but actually they made a fine quick use of her.
Santina was probably as bad (though without him/her there would have not been probably as much the glamazawes0meness) ...

To be honest you could have just cut that sentence down to "Tamina, and noone cared"

She was AJ Lee's heavy and she teamed with Nia Jax She was also in Team BAD during female gang wars. The hart dynasty vs the Usos and Tamina Her and Nia teaming last year.
