Got this from a secondhand source so dunno if this is exactly true but, uh... But here's the thing about that... Accounting for how tightly directed and scripted the company seems to be, how come the babyfaces didn't instantly embrace her as a returning hero like it's suggested she's "meant to be" here? Paige actively shoved her away, Brie's calling BS in interviews and/or on Twitter... The only one seemingly playing Sting here is poor old Nattie. |

Yeah, I'm inclined to think she was supposed to be doing her NXT character and expected to be booed, but if not... Wow. |

Got this from a secondhand source so dunno if this is exactly true but, uh... So, I've been asking since day one of Eva 2.0...how are we, as fans, supposed to show legitimate displeasure in a wrestler as opposed to just booing a solid heel? Apologies to any fans of hers here, but most people aren't booing Eva because she's a solid heel... |

"We can say we had a divas revolution but still push women with no talent or charisma because they look pretty" "That's good butters write that down" "Lie.. about... Revolution" I actually think they can do this now, but in that meta sense where they get heat specifically because people realize she's getting pushed for being hot. The heat for the title match with Eva and Bayley was great for that reason. The problem is that there has to be lots of bells and whistles to make things work because Eva is terrible in the ring (and I'm not overstating, she's terrible). |

Nah, she's the worst wrestler on the roster not named Rosa Mendes. In almost three years, the only improvement is that she has gone from ungodly horrible to really, truly terrible.

I will say this about Eva. Luchabelle made a good point to me once about how with the Diva's Revolution, It's obviously great to have excellent female wrestlers, but in a company that employs guys like Titus, it's a double standard that every employed woman has to be exceptionally talented to warrant a paycheck, but that same requirement is not made of men. Parity isn't achieved by making it where guys can fall anywhere on the talent spectrum, but only the upper echelon of women should have gainful employment. On that front, her having a job makes sense. They have had men at around her skill level they kept on payroll. They could find a better diva to replace her, but the same could be said of a number of men. Hopefully I didn't butcher her argument.  |

The problem is that there has to be lots of bells and whistles to make things work because Eva is terrible in the ring (and I'm not overstating, she's terrible). I do agree, problem is that's an idea that requires consistent and well measured booking to execute. A good idea could be to get a pretty woman who is actually good at wrestling to do it, and botch a lot on purpose like Sabu used to do, so they can get the meta heat but without being dangerous like Eva Marie is. |

They could find a better diva to replace her, but the same could be said of a number of men. Hopefully I didn't butcher her argument. I agree with the sentiment, but also would say this: Liken the women's division to a professional football team for example. When you have to rebuild (which WWE is even in some small regard attempting), you have to get yourself a base of solid if not extraordinary players to build the rest of the team around. Since WWE's womens programming has been mostly bad for the better part of 10ish years now, they are trying to set a precedent with the current and newer members of mostly their best foot forward. I think it seems like they're setting a double standard, but in fact just trying to make the division legitimate again. As for the men, we can agree that men or women both need bonafide undercard characters. The men have them in guys like Titus as you mentioned that will almost always be used to put others over and I suspect that, in time, the women's divison will grow into the same. Then again, maybe I'm giving them too much credit lol. Sorry for off-topic. Boo Eva! |

People keep saying she's a great heel, but the top babyface on the roster currently has more heel heat than her.
