HOW CAN ONE MAN SO EFFECTIVELY SUCK THE COOL OUT OF EVERY THING HUMAN KIND HAS EVER LOVED? Relax mate. It was a one-off. She ain't done in NXT by a long shot.

Is this like being a furry, but identifying as a boat instead? She doesn't identify as boat. She has a boat persona. Like Spider-Man. Except Boat.

Joe Buck would be a better commentator in WWE than Michael Cole.
But I like Joe Buck, so....

I feel like Cole discovered the word "persona" written on a bathroom wall or something yesterday, liked it, and decided to try to work it into his announcing as much as possible last night. He used it two or three times in the Rumble matches alone.

Look, let's take some perspective, this is the same company that un-ironically named a man the 'Human Fence,' and doesn't know the word hospital. At this point, poking fun at them over this seems a little unfair. Like making fun of kids on the short bus.

The idea of a wrestler who is a yacht enthusiast sounds like one of my ideas from the Wrestlecrap Forum days. Here are others I am patiently waiting for. Remember. This list is from 2005...
- Evil Paleontologist
- Ardent John Edwards Supporter
- Roadie From Trapt
- Video Game Reviewer Who Doesn't Get Sarcasm
- Diva Who Just Wants to Wrestle
- Bam Margera's Morbidly Obese Uncle

Uhh... she actually said on wwe tv that “I really like Yachting and I use my skills to craft this persona”.
Her gimmick is actually “I’m really into boats and like to pretend that I’m a pirate”.

I had the Women's Rumble on mute, but did Cole seriously say the woman who comes out in a tricorner hat and has a massive f***ing ship wheel has a "yacht persona" as if that's a totally phrase to say?

I honestly have no problem with this as a gimmick. Don't get me wrong, I can dig on some "I'm literally a pirate, give me your doubloons or walk the plank, YARRRR" style gimmickry, but I also like a person who is a really good wrestler and also likes incorporating imagery from outside wrestling into their style. I'm not making a comment about you, but it seems like a lot of folks can't get down with Kairi or Ember Moon because that's the style of their gimmick. But I don't have a problem with either.

I remember Toryumon had a guy who had a fisherman gimmick. All his moves where fish related: Fisherman Suplex, Octopus Hold, etc

I was way too busy marking out because they used her MYC theme. Hope she keeps it now.

I actually really like Dana despite her being under 50% human flesh now but her eliminating Kairi was ridiculous.

The problem isn't that Kairi is into boating and that it was put across. The problem is that it was said in the lamest, most quintessentially Michael Cole way possible. I don't think he actually used the nickname "Pirate Princess" ever. It's about presentation. The Pirate Princess Kairi Sane? That's punchy, that's immediate, that gets across what her act is. "That's why Kairi has a yacht persona" is so bad that it just sucked even people who like her out of the moment because of how dumb it was. This is entirely about Michael Cole being grown in a lab to be the least cool human being.

I don't think we need to worry about her persona, the fact she forgot the "stop and do nothing" rule when someone entered means she'll probably go nowhere now anyway. Debut on the main roster and forget to do one of their stupid presentation production moves or whatever it is that means, luckily, every time someone entered either rumble nothing was happening in ring will instantly get you frowned on
(wow that's a negative and pessimistic post lol)

Does that mean in the WWE production of "The Final Deletion", she will play the part of the Dilapidated Boat?
