Corey Graves is currently on suicide watch. He shouldn't worry - Mandy Rose is better than Eva anyway ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

I don't mind Eva leaving, but I am annoyed that they never properly had a pay off to the Eva keeps avoiding actually wrestling storyline. I actually can't think of a better conclusion than this.

Not since Vickie Guerrero have WWE had such a natural heat magnet. She did a flawless flying headscissors at WrestleMania last year and was tremendous on NXT (in ring no but character yes), but she never had a chance after the way WWE introduced her. Mind you, the way she was introduced was where the heat came from. I've always found it strange how JoJo got a pass with the fans but eh who cares. She was brought in for Total Divas and did a good job all things considered. I wish her well. Jojo they rather quickly seemed to realize wasn't that great in the ring, and she found her calling for being a ring announcer (she still does that, right?). Eva, I think most people were expecting her to be groomed as "Bella in all but blood relation", especially with how they had her slap Jerry Lawler in one of her earliest appearances. Jojo they also let go to train to wrestle. When Eva later asked she was apparently told no for most of her tenure as they didn't want both of the women they hired for Total Divas to disappear off main roster TV.

The writing was on the wall when she dyed her hair brown and started upping her business game.

Corey Graves is currently on suicide watch. In other words, he is spying on TJ Perkins on his days off.

Since her real name is apparently Natalie, does that mean she can't use the Eva Marie name anymore? I have a feeling that she's going to get a cold hard dose reality in the acting world without the wee machine behind her Won't matter in either case. Jericho discovered in 2005 that being one of the most high profile names in wrestling during the biggest boom period ever meant absolutely nothing in the acting world, and he was treated as a no-name scrub who had to audition for even the smallest parts.

Hell even actors/actresses with decent work on their resume have to audition.Their is a reason why Miz and John Cena don't just jet off to Hollywood altogether and instead keep WWE as a backup plan.

Exactly. Hell, even A-list stars have to audition on the rare occasion when there's several of them up for a single, desirable role and the director/studio haven't got a specific star in mind. If Eva Marie wants to make a thing out of acting then having WWE behind her is entirely inconsequential, and could actually hold her back, since she'd at least have to spend time working for them instead of pursuing auditions.

I figured she was done considering, as stated, her snapchat hasn't mentioned WWE at all in months. I like Eva and thought she was a great character, but this is really no loss at all if true.

Dang, I thought if she could just get to passable in the ring she could have been a star for them. Thought the gimmick was good, the announcer stuff was excellent and the "All Red Everything" was a great tag/look. As was said earlier, Mandy Rose has a similar thing going on in NXT and she is pretty solid in the ring so not much lost. I'll say this but someone who can generate that heat gives you potential to do something bad. Even if that heat is because you're the suckiest suck that ever sucked. But nobody gets real heat these days unless you're viewed as someone who isn't deserving like Reigns, The Drifter, Eva Marie, etc which gives a promoter a rare opportunity to do something special. Since her real name is apparently Natalie, does that mean she can't use the Eva Marie name anymore? I have a feeling that she's going to get a cold hard dose reality in the acting world without the wee machine behind her Won't matter in either case. Jericho discovered in 2005 that being one of the most high profile names in wrestling during the biggest boom period ever meant absolutely nothing in the acting world, and he was treated as a no-name scrub who had to audition for even the smallest parts. True and it's still very tough today. But it's probably a smidge easier (I ONLY SAID A SMIDGE) for wrestlers now with The Rock being the biggest movie star in the world, Eva is backed by The Rock's ex wife as her agent, a f***ing Paige film is being made backed by The Rock and an actual budget, wrestling is marketed and viewed as America's Niche Past time, Batista is finding success, John Cena is getting roles, Hollywood is desperate in looking for action movie stars that aren't 45+ and wrestlers seem to be a safe bet since they look the part with an already built in fanbase, WWE films gives guys SAG memberships, etc. But I don't find Eva Marie having any success with her monotonic personality.

Well, so much for her winning at Wrestlemania and being lifted on everyone's shoulders Bret Hart style like we all wanted. Wait, what?

Yeah, tbh I was really looking forward to a match with her and Becky. Then again I'm excited for Becky can anybody, but Becking making Eva tap would be extra satisfying.

I will miss Eva she brought some much needed sex appeal to the product and especially now that the fans and female talent have been blinded by workrate in an effort to become this generations Mae Young.
