Wait, but Eva Marie ISN'T attractive.
Like...at ALL.

How in the hell is Eva Marie the prettiest diva ever? I don't understand here. I'd take legitimately 90% of females in wrestling history over her, quite easily, in the looks department. Other than that, I can't stand her and her being on the roster over any woman on NXT (anyone, they are all MUCH better). Hell, the person who could be playing the bitch angle in Summer Rae is much better than her as well. Having Summer Rae become a de facto face because Eva Marie sucks so much helps no one.

The weird thing is that the two shows don't really have that much overlap. Like, my mom doesn't really give a damn about wrestling. She watched it when I was at home growing up, or if I visit and I watch she might watch if she's in the same room; but by and large, she doesn't give a shit about the actual product.
On the flip side of that, she REALLY enjoys Total Divas, whereas I couldn't care less about it, but if I'm over there and she's watching it, I might take a look then.
But if you made a Venn diagram of audiences, the percentage that watches and cares about both would be pretty small; so it's weird that WWE is still trying to combine the two. By all means promote Total Divas with a commercial or give them a promo to say "This week on Total Divas Jojo does XYZ", but to try and have this weird carry over of fans just seems weird.

I have not seen one episode of total divas so I can't comment on the show but yeah I've been noticing a few FAN members lately saying she's one of my favorite divas cause she's hot and not in the way that the diva purposely makes her character hot like AJ Lee or Mickie James or Maryse did. Or saying things like yeah Summer Rae is good and all but she has a bird face. Ummmm you just said she's good at her job since when does looks matter? It only matters if it's Bo Dallas because seriously that guy is so ugly he's f***ing scary for how unnatural it is.

Reality TV is terrible so **** this show. Makes me sick to my stomach that WWE thinks that this would pander to it's female fans when in reality, the females watching this show are the same that watch trash like the Kardashians. Being a female fan, it is very insulting. Especially with the way they treat the women's division and trying to claim that the one likeable diva with a character and who is a tomboy is some sort of evil witch. I've only seen a couple episodes of total divas, but I think the main appeal for many people isn't learning about the divas. It's just seeing WWE characters doing silly shit you normally don't see. Male and female.

It's dumb. It's such a pandery reality tv time waste. It does nothing to make me want to see these girls in at or around a ring.
All it manages to do is make me hate who teen-to-twenty-whatever girls actually are.

I meant by like, totally conventionally modelly standards. Even by "totally conventionally modelly standards", she's like a 6 with dead eyes and a lantern jaw. Of course, I'm not entirely sure she's not a fembot, so I'll give her a pass on the dead eyes.

I'll just say I wouldn't be shocked if there is more cross over between the audiences of total divas and WWE fans than people might think.
Seeing people like Cena and D-bryan in their non kayfabe world is actually very interesting stuff and the rest of the stuff is in the "it's so stupid it's entertaining" camp.

Male and female. Pretty much. Seeing Cena be all sagely and smart whilst Daniel Brie-an are the cutest couple ever and Natalya is...well, really selfish actually. It's just an entertaining almost peek behind the scenes. Anyway, on the topic of Eva Marie, she was much hotter when she was brunette, not a fan of the plastic red look. She seems like a terrible person based on Total Divas though. "I'M ENGAGED, BETTER GO FLIRT WITH FANDANGO AND LIE ABOUT DANCING EXPERIENCE TO GET AHEAD!"

technically I think charisma is just something that draws people to you. If her looks draw people in and she has enough personality not to immediately drive them back away then she has charisma

That show is why I see all the Total Divas as heels on Raw or SD.
No one looks good coming out of that show, but that's reality TV 101.

I'm not convinced charisma and and tuning in for the purpose to see how bad somebody can f*** up every week are the same thing

I don't like Eva but she's done so little on the main roster I don't think she really warrants such an angry reaction. She's been in a few meaningless matches where she did hardly anything, and neither she nor JoJo have done anything of substance. If someone like Paige had been in her place and done exactly the same thing it wouldn't have been notably better.

I concur; can't stand it. But with wrestling being a worked sport, it only makes sense for them to capitalize on it for a worked 'reality' tv show. I just wish they'd keep the two more regularly apart. Seeing Eva out there missing her cues and adding nothing of value to the divas division makes me sad for all the women out there that would actually want to be there, whom would actually perform at a level that doesn't expose how fake wrestling is every time they do anything. There's a reason why certain females who couldn't wrestle, like Marlena or Liz, are looked back fondly upon: they contributed. They weren't taking away from the product when they were on tv. Eva should be on NXT doing dark matches right now. Rosa shouldn't even be in the business with how little she's improved. It's not all Eva's fault, but I'm gonna blame her anyway since she's likely just doing this to get famous so she can leave and do reality tv full-time.

Paige is pretty hot though, I gotta say. Only cuz pale black haired girls do it for me. So whenever she shows up on the main roster, I'm adding at least 6 stars to every match she has.
Because I'm a man and that's all you need to know.

I've seen a couple of episodes of Total Divas a little while back. It looked like your basic reality TV show, or as I like to call it: dreck. And promoting it on TV wouldn't be bad, except that they're focusing all of the Diva storylines around Total Divas. The only Diva that actually gets TV time that's not on the show is AJ, who despite being the "villain" is cheered by pretty much every crowd. And all of the Diva storylines are people being "jealous" that they're not on some crappy reality TV show.
In regards to Eva Marie, in her pre-WWE photos she looks fine, but the red hair is just ridiculous. Any attractiveness (to me at least) she had is now instantly gone (same with Rosa with blonde hair). And yeah, I'd much rather see the NXT divas who actually can wrestle be on TV instead of Eva and JoJo who barely have any experience, but I guess it's necessary so the 5% (at most) of Raw/Smackdown viewers that actually watch Total Divas (like Kevin Hamilton said, there's not much crossover viewership) can get their fix.
That's actually my biggest problem. If everything had gone on as usual as far as storylines go, that'd be OK. But the fact that this show is being shoved down our throats whenever any Divas are around is ridiculous. Fine, have Nattie feud with AJ for the title, but don't focus it around AJ being supposedly upset that she's not on some reality TV show. And now there's this weird shift where all the reality TV divas are faces and everyone else isn't because..? And I guess that's okay with the non-reality TV divas (considering you never show them anyway), but they never even explained why suddenly the Bellas are suddenly good. Oh wait, they said Brie and DBry were engaged, but that's it.
