Interesting to see it mention her Twitter message to Stephanie about Give Divas A Chance

Kaitlyn was better than AJ ever was. This says a lot about how amazing Kaitlyn was because AJ was great at about everything. |

AJ was a decent performer but she's far from the "savior of women's wrestling" that people like to paint her as. She didn't get over by wrestling. She got over by being constantly linked to uppercard stars for a year and a half. When it came time for her to actually BE a Diva, she dropped off the map hard.

She was a diva whose matches I enjoyed watching, an increasingly endangered species, may she RIP.

Kaitlyn was better than AJ ever was. At what exactly? Head-on collisions with ring ropes? To be honest, the thing I'll miss AJ for more than anything else is her total unwillingness to play the Diva game. Paige seems totally OK with being on reality TV, has an Instagram full of selfies of her pointing her ass at the camera etc, not that it makes her less of a performer or in any way wrong to do so, but she's the only 'alternative' choice that remains and she's basically goth Barbie. AJ more than anyone before or after her really didn't seem to give a shit about the superficial side of being a Diva beyond what was absolutely necessary. I wonder if WWE slightly regretted making her as big of a star as they did once they realised the extent to which she was against everything the Divas had come to stand for. They've got plenty of performers as talented or more talented than her left over in the division, but I'm not sure there's anyone left who's secure enough in their spot to keep it real or call WWE out on their bullshit like she did with Stephanie that time. She might not have been revolutionary as a performer, but as a person she, much like Punk, was quite the shock to the system for WWE once she got into a position of influence. She's also the reason that all the main Divas now have their own merch, so that's something of a legacy if nothing else. |

Chris Hardwick no longer needs to spy at WWE house shows.

When did WWE.com start to write stuff I thought I would only read on this board?
Not that it's a bad thing or anything, I just don't know what to make of it yet.
To add a comment about the article itself, I particularly agree with the last point. She managed to pull of a character she did not have "the look" for, and was really convincing at it.

WWE is a bipolar organization, aren't they? They make it a point last year to fire her husband on their wedding day while she was employed by them (not that he really cared, but it was the point that they went out of their way to do it on that day that was quite disrespectful to the both of them) and then say a bunch of nice things about her after she quits and goes home to raise her great-grandchildren.

Of course she dropped off the map hard, it would've required the creative team to give Divas more time that didn't involve Total Deevers. Not to mention, Brie Bella didn't exactly set the world on fire while she was always trying to get Bryan's overness transferred to her during the feuds with Steph and Nikki. |

Ask the Nacho Man and the Huckster. The wwe.com stuff gets approved by said man-baby as well. |

Punk's basis for claiming that WWE knew about it was that he got into contact with the company over some money owed to him right before he got married, and then the termination papers were overnighted to him on that day. |
