By good, I mean, she's no NXT/Indie super darling, but at least on par of what used to constitute good before NXT came around. so Good (Eve, Kaitlyn, Maryse, etc quality. Serviceable and competent) Bad (Cameron, Rosa, Kelly Kelly, etc quality).  There seems to be differing opinions which camp to lump her in with. People claim that we give credit to people like Eva and Bellas cause they're hot. Nah, it's not JUST THAT. I hated those two before total Divas and Eva up until recently. It's just that we had a couple dozen hours of character development and now have some sort of emotional connection to them and you could see them get better. Alicia has been at the same level pretty much for 8 years and we just now are starting to get to know her, and Total Divas has been painting her as an unstable jealous nut who can't get over Wade Barrett. |

Alicia Fox is alright. She's not amazing, and I do wish she wouldn't do her axe kick because it looks terrifying at times, but she is decent, I'd say.

I wouldn't count Total Divas as 'getting to know' people, everyone on that show is pigeon-holed into a character archetype no more true to their real-life persona than any wrestling gimmick. Anyway, Alicia's awesome. Not the greatest wrestler, but good enough to hang with just about anyone else in the division, and extremely charismatic in the ring on the rare occasion they give her a discernible character to play and a story to work with.

She's good. I had hopes for her when she started the tantrum thing and then she just became another diva again.

She's serviceable and a'ight. Not amazing but competent.

She's a good wrestler but I'm not a huge fan. She seems likeable on TD but she's boring on Raw.

I do wish she wouldn't do her axe kick because it looks terrifying at times, but she is decent, I'd say. While I can see why (she certainly does get some velocity into that kick), the fact that she's not injured anybody in almost 7 years of using it would suggest she's pretty safe with it. That somersault leg drop, on the other hand... |

She's sloppy at times but she's gotten better. I used to cringe when she would wrestle, but now, I'm good with it. She's entertaining. I just wish she would find a way to cover her edges better. That has nothing to do with her as a wrestler but yeah.

She's competent and deserved better than what she was getting. Now she's in the perfect position for someone of her skill level; there's nothing to complain about with Alicia Fox.

If her bridge is good enough for William Regal, it's good enough for me.

I'd say she's pretty good in the ring. She has a believable offense, really good a selling, execution of moves are usually crisp, and she integrates her character well with her trash talking and mannerisms.
Overall, easily among the better performers of the division.

Alicia Fox falls under the same category to me as Naomi in that while they're both very athletic and can be helped to have a great match... neither are really great wrestlers. That being said at least they are natural athletes, as opposed to some of the other "pretty" faces WWE's hired in the past who didn't even have that going for them. They're a step down from some of the awesome Diva wrestlers we have now, but they deserve their spot on the card (as opposed to others like Summer and Rosa).

For the record my vote was "Good" since, while she's not great, she's still far from "Bad".

I didn't vote because I feel indifferent to her. I wouldn't care if they fired her, but on the flip side I wouldn't care if they put the belt on her either as long as she had good opponents.

Good wrestler, still find it hilarious how much this site hates her finisher. It has never injured anyone, and yet everyone is GAH! MAKE IT STOP! SO DEADLY! That should be the sign of a good finisher.
