She's gonna be El Generico's valet, El Generica

I think they tried something like this... with I wanna say, Taylor Wilde years ago? It was a bit different though.

How come the NXT and developmental divas are way better than what we get on the regular shows

Because I honestly think they are trying to build something for the future. Get a good base built up with characters and time together before refreshing the division late this year or early next.

Now that's a three way I can get behind.

change in philosophy. I know it's kind of cliche to say the WWE hired only models. While there were those that were committed to getting better in the ring, there are also those who really shouldn't be thrust into the ring the few times they are. And while there are quite a few people that don't care about workrate, the fanbase isn't stupid enough to be fed the diva is hot=she is awesome bull that will occasionally happen.

And I've said in the past in other threads, there are quite a few female wrestlers out there that are gorgeous. And if/when the WWE decides they want to promote the divas as sex symbols again it takes a lot less time in effort to make people like Emma and Paige look sexy (as both are already beautiful) than it does to put models with very little training in the ring and expect them to entertain. I mean, the only Diva I remember getting sent back to developmental to get seasoning was Michelle McCool, and if I remember correctly she only went down to get back in shape after battling an eating disorder

Again not saying that WWE can't make models into passable wrestlers they have. They just have previously had a tendency to rush good looking girls to the main roster and then not help them improve when they obviously aren't succeeding. Some have been able to overcome that, others weren't

I also think NXT has the best developmental training staff since Lance Storm trained in OVW so even when the WWE hires girls with little to no experience (Summer Rae and Anya) they are at least getting good training.
