TOTAL DIVAS, OR TOTAL AIRHEADS?

Right off the bat, let me say that I am aware that the show is a "worked" reality show. Just like practically every other reality show. However with Total Divas, it is almost a hindrance to the now thriving Divas (womens) division. And as things go on, it appears to get worse. Aren't they supposed to show the world smart, strong, and athletic females? There are moments, in which that message comes across, but other things overshadow that mainly.

Nikki Bella
-Nikki comes across as a bimbo airhead, who is far from smart, or even street smarts. Total Divas makes Nikki appear to be that cliche star. Tea parties, fine. Telling people to pretend, and being offended when they point out how fake it is. Drinking? Fine. If not for IG and Twitter, I would almost assume she has a drinking problem.

Brie Bella
-Brie has been portrayed in both a positive and a negative light. She appears to be the smarter of the Bella twins, but a lot of that appears to come from being with Daniel Bryan (Bryan Danielson) at times.

Natalya
-When John Cena had mentioned he didn't want kids while he was in the business because he has seen those raised in that world, I couldn't help but wonder if Natty was one of those people. She appears to be a princess who has no concept of how real life works. Natalya is portrayed in a way that makes everyone feel bad for Tyson Kidd.

Eva Marie
-Fake. On all levels. Husband too. Hoping this is just Total Divas, otherwise, the women's wrestling movement is in trouble if this is who Vince wants at the top.

Alicia Fox
-Maybe Fox is crazy like Naomi Campbell. Maybe it is just part of the show. Her inring skills have improved, but is still "behind" the rest, but perhaps it is time to replace her. As how she is portrayed
on Total Divas, she is the new Melina.

Rosa Mendes
-I'll immediately gives props for overcoming her demons, and getting clean. As a person though, Total Divas presents Rosa as a love hungry, bimbo. Given extreme limited inring ability, hard to see why she is still around, outside of a valet/manager role.

Naomi
-Total Divas has actually garnered my respect in this case. She is married to a wrestler as well, but doesn't appear to be a female clone of her male counterpart. Not the same really for say the Bellas. She also seems to be the voice of reason, or the only one pointing out when the Divas are in the wrong.

Now again, this isn't a knock on the ladies involved. It is a shot on how they are appearing on Total Divas. Nikki, Paige, and company are simply playing roles on the show, but I felt compelled to point out how the lines of reality and fiction are becoming blurry....at the wrong time to make it worse.

IT BEGINS WITH JACQUELINE

Rightfully so. Jacqueline did everything that the WWE product required of her at the times. The Attitude Era saw her show the confidence it takes to strut around in a bikini (even exposing her breasts on occasion), but again, that was what the WWE product needed from her at that time. Then they needed her to wrestle, and she did that flawlessly. Working with all types too, from those who couldn't really wrestle (Sable, although has some MMA ability) to even the men. Even winning the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.

Trish Status and Lita were obvious choices to be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame. Their names were as known as any of the guys (including Rock and Stone Cold), and to be honest, if you put Sunny in there...well. With Jacqueline being inducted this year, it makes me think that combined with the recent "Divas Movement", this is a sign of things to come. There were plenty of Divas from yesteryear that deserve to be in the Hall Of Fame, and not actually talking about Stacy Keibler and Torrie Wilson, although there "star power" earned through wrestling makes them deserving. What about the females who were like Jacqueline and could actually wrestle.
Ivory. Another Diva who could do it all, regardless of the products direction. Her "anti-Diva" type reactions during bikini contests and whatnot added to the segment so it was more than just a meat show. She had quality inring ability, and could work a mic (being known as a chatter box helped that I am sure). Her character in RTC (Right To Censor) was just as entertaining as Steven Richards.
Victoria/Tara. She started off as one of The Godfather's hoes, and has become one of the best ever. Her matches with Trish Status were amazing, most notably their hardcore match. She seemed to get better with age, both ability and looks wise.
Jazz. Her run wasn't really that long, but she was a good wrestler and likely was held back for not "looking the part", not that she isn't attractive, but as we know there was a certain look for years...basically model like.

Molly Holly. A rare Diva who didn't have to reveal any flesh (beyond some cleavage). She sure could go with anyone in the ring. And she even "out her hair on the line" just so the WWE Womens Championship and women would be represented at Wrestlemania beyond the Playboy Evening Gown Match. Ya.
Luna Vachon. Multi generation...you know what, google the late Diva's work. That was a women's wrestler for sure.
Gail Kim and Mickie James. Might be too early yet, but they are both deserving. Like others on the list, willing and able to give what the product requires of them. Both would make perfect fits in todays Divas division.

Again, I am not against women like Stacy Keibler and Torrie Wilson going into the WWE Hall Of Fame, I would just prefer to see the women who could wrestle just as good as the men go in first.
