Ex-WWE Creative Team Member Blogs On WWE’s Divas

Apr 23, 2015

Former WWE creative team member Kevin Eck posted a new blog, looking at the booking of the WWE Diva’s division. Here is an excerpt…

I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised by the questionable booking. During my time on the WWE creative team, we actually were told that there really are no babyfaces or heels in the Divas division. It was strongly implied that the Divas are all just a bunch of catty chicks, most of whom are mentally unstable.

A perfect example of that philosophy was the booking of the program between AJ and Paige last year. Instead of establishing a babyface and a heel, both characters acted heelish,

Their “frenemies” angle was more confusing than compelling. Thus, the rivalry between one of the most “over” Divas of all time and a heralded newcomer to the main roster wasn’t nearly as good as it should have been.

The audience needs someone to root for. It’s really not that complicated.

If the idea now is to get fans to cheer the Bellas — and I’m honestly not sure if that’s the case or not — don’t have them just show up on Raw one week acting nicer and wrestling a babyface style. Tell me a story. What circumstance has sparked this change in their personalities?

Speaking of the Bella twins, their reunion last year after Nikki had turned on Brie three months earlier is a textbook example of uninspired and illogical storytelling.
