It amazes me that they're trying so damn hard to get the postively useless Kelly Kelly to stay but can't find a use for someone who's just as (if not moreso imo) attractive but actually seems to have talent/potential in the ring and has good mic skills. Well... maybe it doesn't AMAZE me as much as it saddens me. One girl is over, the other isn't. You do the math. One's been stuck on NXT since she was called up to the main roster and the other's a golden girl for the WWE Brass who they always managed to find something for her to keep her visible. You do the math.

Well, she's got no one to blame but herself. She's the one who f***ed up the Tyson Kidd angle and got her stay in FCW extended. Also, trying to force WWE's hand never works unless you have an identical twin. I don't think it's really fair to judge her for a rumour.

WWE DIVA QUITS COMPANY by Mike Johnson @ 5:55 PM on 6/28/2012 Maxine, who's been seen mostly on WWE NXT and a few Raw appearances, including Monday's Battle Royal, has quit the company and is gone, according to WWE sources. The word making the rounds is that she had been frustrated with a number of things, including not being offered a guaranteed deal and not having the chance to prove herself on TV beyond the WWE NXT level. Maxine, real name Karlee Perez, signed a WWE developmental deal in 2009. After wrestling for Florida Championship Wrestling, she was brought up to NXT for the all Divas third season. She returned to NXT as part of the retribution season four and became involved in a triangle with Derek Bateman and Johnny Curtis.

Maxine is pretty hot, but she even being on NXT when she was in 2010 was lucky for her based on the fact that not only did she have little WWE experience, she rarely wrestled in FCW.
Do I think Maxine could have been useful? Yeah I guess, but I still found her recent work to be VASTLY overrated. Her entire arsenal consisted of nothing but rest holds and a Dragon Sleeper yet people were gawking at her as if she was this amazing wrestler.

I've rarely heard people say she was an amazing wrestler. Most people brought up the fact that she was great on the mic, and had a unique personality, two attributes many of the divas don't have, even the widely lauded ones like Nattie and Beth.

Shame. One of the actually interesting women quits. But to be fair, any of the Divas could leave, Beth and Nattie included, and it wouldnt make a damn bit of a difference.

You do the math. It's a stupid comparison. Why not just compare her with the other nxt divas. That makes much more sense

Like most of the NXT 3 competitors, she will mostly be remembered for CM Punk and Cole's commentary.

I wouldn't say GREAT on the mic, but yes she had better mic skills. Hell, she was better than Natalya and Beth in that regard in my book considering I think Beth and Natalya are both pretty bad on the mic as evidenced by the terrible promos they cut when they were together. But in terms of in ring skills, there were plenty of people who kept talking about how "great" Maxine was on NXT, which when looking into it, pretty much meant she didn't botch and the match wasn't 30 seconds long but it's pretty hard to botch rest holds.

In the movie "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead", there's a scene early on where the main character Sue Ellen is talking to her mother about Kenny, Sue Ellen's younger brother. Kenny just brought home a report card with all Ds, and Sue Ellen asks her mother if she yelled at Kenny for his lousy grades. The mom responds by saying, "No, I couldn't. It was an improvement". I think of that scene a lot when I hear about the Divas "improving".

Yeah, I do sort of agree. Maxine was definitely more versatile than Kelly Kelly. Her acting and mic skills could've served her well as a manager, while she develops her wrestling skills in the meantime.

Its a stupid point, especially since Kelly isn't even on TV. And even then, I don't think Maxine is any more talented. Again, she'd been on the roster years and years before Maxine was on NXT. OF COURSE she had more opportunities. So yeah, there's no point in even bringing her up. Any point would have been better made by comparing her with someone who'd at least been around as long. You know, like the 4-5 other divas she debuted with. But no, lets bitch about Kelly some more.

For me, its not such a bad thing. Yeah, she was hot and did display some personality on NXT, but her matches were usually bad.

I still get annoyed when people say Kelly Kelly is untalented. She's not the most talented, but she does some stuff well and the audience likes her because of it. It's absolutely ridiculous to say that WWE shouldn't try to keep their most popular diva but keep one that apparently has an attitude and is a crapshoot with the current division alongside Eve, a returning Kharma, and whatever AJ's going to do.

It'd be like complaining Santino gets more TV time then Seth Rollins. Well duh.

I watch RAW all the time and Smackdown about half the time.
I have no clue who people are talking about. (totally serious) Being that I see no pictures of her in this thread, I'm just assuming this mysterious "Maxine" doesn't exist. (not sure if serious)
