Kaitlyn in the WWE's NXT breakout Diva

[D-Man]

For anyone that gives two shits, Kaitlyn won NXT season 3.

I'm a bit appalled by this. Women's wrestling is severely suffering right now because the matches are absolute horseshit. So instead of allowing someone like AJ or Naomi to win with their extensive in-ring experience, they give the rub to a girl who got a phone call about NXT 2 days before it started and had her first match in the NXT ring.

Granted, I think Kaitlyn is smoking hot and really personable, but COME ON. This was a bad decision.

Let's keep discussion about her win in here.

 

[#hamler]

Well, I feel this was somewhat rigged. Smart, sexy, powerful are all components that make up Kaitlyn. And coincidently, its the formula for a WWE Diva. I know Aj should've come out with a victory over Kaitlyn and Naomi but I feel WWE were to high on Kaitlyn for her not to win this. I don't blame them, I mean look at her. I can't really say much because I haven't been following the NXT Season 3 but I know enough about each of the divas. Congrats to Kaitlyn, I can see a future championshop reign...*sigh*

 

[Con T.]

So let me get this straight... In an era of the glorified "ring rat", an era in which Divas have become the often known and reported ass jockeys of their male counterparts, the hottest piece of ass winning the contest is a shocking thing? Really? Now don't get me wrong, Naomi had as much a chance, because Vince had to look out for his brothers. You can't tell me Kofi and Big Zeke weren't getting tired of running trains on Alicia Fox, but then again, perhaps Naomi just wasn't there swirl.

Look, we can sit here and be appalled by the outcome, but we all know what was going on. AJ winning? Pffft. If any wrestler had the dream of going to prison and getting copped for Statutory, then by all means, she should have won. In women's wrestling, your ability to throw a headlock means about as much as your ability to give a head... Well, head. Nothing more, nothing less. Kaitlyn was the hottest piece of ass to put on TV, and backstage, so she won.

As for Kaitlyn... Meh. Does she get a women's title shot? If so, it'd be best to milk that away from Natayla. Kaitlyn can't do much, but at least she can work the mic better than Nattie. But in all seriousness, this ensures a job on screen for two, maybe three years, and a lot of happy wrestlers at the newest ring rat

I dont know if its just me but I'm smelling something going on with this.

On twitter it is no secret that Kaitlyn and AJ are the best of friends. They even prove this on NXT countless times this season. But the thing that's getting to me is that Kaitlyn represents what this competition was all about. Being smart, sexy and powerful. None of the other rookies represented that. Maxine had a strong dislike for the divas in general. AJ hates the meaning of "Diva", and it is her goal to change that meaning to something else. Kaitlyn was the only true diva in all of this. I also find it strange that AJ and kaitlyn never faced off (At least I dont think they did). I really doubt that Kaitlyn and AJ are really friends. This is all just a work on WWE's part to create a storyline. Is there any proof as to how these two are "close" friends to begin with?? I find this "relationship" they have to be really odd.

What I'm trying to say is that I believe for there to be a bigger story behind all of this. Every single last one of those rookies (Except Jamie) could easily get on the roster. They all have some kind of quality that helps them get through. They'll all be back just as they said when they were eliminated.

Hell...I'll even predict AJ vs Kaitlyn at wrestlemania. Kaitlyn representing the Divas and AJ representing the "new divas."

Sorry if my post seems a little all over the place but I'm still rather new to this.

 

[LigerBomb]

Seeing as how many contestants will make it to the active roster regardless of where in the rankings they've finished, the actual point of winning—and by proxy caring about said winner's abilities/legitimacy in winning—is very much a moot point.

Kaitlyn won on her looks and personality which (in general) is spot on with what's necessary to do well in pro-wrestling, so really no harm no foul there. I'm sure AJ and Naomi will have a place on WWE's roster in due time. No surprise they went with what they'd assume to be the "safe bet".

As I said in the LD, this has actually been my favorite season of NXT so far, and I'm semi-sad to see it end. Beyond the good lookin' ladies, I also loved the whole meta-commentary/show angle they ran, and here's hoping they keep it up for season 4 (which is very possible considering how bad Cole was already goofing on "The Mastodon of Mayhem" Fatty McWorthless).

 

[Richard]

I thought it was pretty much a given that Kaitlyn was probably going to win it anyway so it's not that much of a shock.

Don't be too disappointed Naomi or AJ haven't won, there is a chance after all that they could end up working TV seeing as how other people who have not won NXT are on TV too like Bryan and the rest of Nexus. I think Naomi would have been great for her actual in ring talent from the little I saw of her so I wouldn't hold your breathe on never seeing her again.

 

[DX98folife]

I'll be one of the few that says Kaitlyn was the RIGHT choice for this show. Her competition:

Naomi; Shes athletic, a dancer by trade but that isn't translating into outstanding ring potential. She gets lost in the ring at times and is a few notches above Yoshi Tatsu on the mic.

Jamie; No...Just no.

Maxxine; Decent in the ring but didn't try hard enough on the mic. She had little charisma outside being a total bitch.

Acksana; "Llama? whats a Llama?" enough said, she was given the most story out of any of the NXT rookies and she floundered under it.

AJ(/flameon); Was probably the best in-ring competitor was good on the mic and brought something different to the table, she was my pick to runaway with the competition. HOWEVER, You can't deny shes just small. I mean tiny. Can you imagine her in matches with Michelle Mccool, Natalya or Beth Phoenix? She'd be crushed and buried under the roster. She may have a career as a valet for some superstars(Primo lol...) but she just doesn't fit "the mold". I think they did the best thing for her and eliminate her to keep her from jobbing to bad Divas.

Remember this competition is The WWE's next breakout Diva, not the Next Breakout Women's Wrestler.

That said, Kaitlyn is the total package. Great to look at, has size, getting better in the ring and has a ton of charisma. She had a week to sell herself when NXT season 3 started and did it well. Think of this; She took the spotlight off of Vickie Guerrero. How many people can do that?

 

[LSN80]

Well, at least they went all the way with the joke.

As she admitted herself, Kaitlyn had NEVER wrestled a match before appearing on NXT. She was a last minute replacement. She was terrible in the ring, and her mic skills are quite below average. The only thing she had going for her is shes another fitness model, which has fitthe basis of WWE's women division until recently when Natalya won the title.

It was just sad to see a really good tag match before that meant nothing. The diva that was by far the best of any of them got the pin in this match, after getting a submission win the week before. She was in the best two matches of the season, and by far displayed the most charisma and superior mic skills. Of course, Im referring to AJ. The only knock on her is that shes small, and could have matchup problems with some of the larger Divas.

So a woman who can't wrestle gets a title shot. Has had maybe 10 matches in her life, and she's the next breakout star? The only things Kaitlyn brought to the table were mild charisma, and a great body. Otherwise, she's just a part of the joke that season 3 was. At least WWE went all the way with the joke.

 

[Jack-Hammer]

I can't really say I'm surprised. I haven't really kept up with the goings on of Season III as it's just been ridiculously awful but I pegged Kaitlyn as the one to win this from the first episode of Season III. In terms of sheer physical appearance based upon how much you'd love to get her in the sack, Kaitlyn pretty much had this locked when you factor that in with her overall personality.

Like just about everyone else, I do wish that the WWE would have a serious women's division. After all, every wrestling program has to have some degree of filler but I just wish the filler was good. But wish in one hand and shit in the other and see which hand gets full faster. She'll be quality *********ory material if nothing else.

 

[MisterRob]

What is there to say, really? NXT Season 3 was garbage and it's quite clear that WWE doesn't actually give a shit about their Divas division and just used the women to mock and express their own inside joke. It's also quite clear that the whole thing was rigged from the start, especially with Kaitlynn winning. The most obvious proof of this was when Kaitlynn won and cut her acceptance speech.. and got NO reaction at all from the crowd. They didn't care at all, and there was even some boos out there. There's no way Kaitlynn was voted by fans to win this.

I'll admit though I'm perfectly fine with Kaitlynn winning because, despite all that she's lacking right now she does have the most potential for WWE. She's smoking hot, she's got the body, she has a good presence, and now all she needs to do is be molded into a better wrestler and entertainer and I could easily see her excelling and even becoming a star Diva. I'm quite happy Naomi didn't win, personally, because despite her having some ability in the ring she was HORRIBLE on the mic and had no charisma at all.

I still think AJ should've been in the finals, and if this was a serious competition and based on voting she probably should've won. She could wrestle as well as any of the rookie Divas, she was fine on the mic, and she had a good chracter and presence out there. Although, personally I think Maxine was the best Diva. She wasn't bad in the ring, and I don't care what anyone says she actually had a character and pulled it off well and was GOOD on the mic. She's also hot. She had everything really and I really hope WWE keeps her and brings her up to the main roster because I think she could become a good heel Diva in the future.

I'm so happy this seasons over, though. I enjoyed the first two seasons, but this season totally bombed and I didn't even really watch half of it. The challenges were worse then ever, the WWE just didn't care, and worst of all was the commentary which just trashed the product throughout the entire show, every week. I don't understand how any of these Divas could possibly have a chance of getting over, or how any of this benefits the WWE, when you have Michael Cole trashing everything about the show and the Divas and making a mockery of it all. How does that benefit anything? How is that good for the product? What's the fucking point of that!

 

[WWE.IS.AWESOME]

I knew that either AJ or Kaitlyn was going to win. After AJ got eliminated, I was 100% sure about Kaitlyn's victory. I'm not suprised at all. I actually like Kaitlyn. Obviously Naomi is better in the ring, but Naomi can't speak two sentences without having me fall asleep.

Nobody should get all worried about AJ and Naomi not being on TV though because it's obvious they will make it in the WWE eventually. I see potential in Kaitlyn though. She can talk and has personality but lacks in-ring skills. With a little practice, she could easily improve.

I wouldn't be suprised to see a heated fued between Kaitlyn vs AJ in WWE very soon.

 

[MizFit Brocko]

I have yet to watch the finale as it is not on television til thursday afternoon in Australia, however i'm happy Kaitlyn has won it. When you think about it, maybe AJ was eliminated last week so Kaitlyn winning over Naomi was more believable than her winning over AJ. The public's vote apparently counts for 50%, and out of Naomi and Kaitlyn, i'd much rather see Kaitlyn, she can work on her in ring stuff, Naomi can't just get some personality, and Kaitlyn is smoking hot. So i think in that aspect, Kaitlyn getting more of the public's vote is believable. Having Vickie as her pro has been extremely beneficial to her, and because of the Ziggles/Vickie thing, she has already made some appearances on Smackdown.

Out of the 2 choices, i think Kaitlyn winning was the better choice.

 

[Kenny Powers]

Katilyn becoming the WWE's Next Breakout Diva is about as groundbreaking as someone winning an award for being the world's tallest midget. She's has a great body, but no one really cares about her. Naomi was a better wrestler but with no personality. AJ was cute and decent in the ring, and probably better on the mic. Katilyn was a last minute replacement and was thrown into a storyline with Vickie Guerrero. Of course it wasn't a shock she was going to win since they pretty much focused the whole show around her.

She even had her own segments on Smackdown with Dolph Ziggler. I bet Aloisha is pissed since she could have easily been the one win NXT instead of her replacement. She will be nice to look at, but I don't expect much from her. I wouldn't be surprised if she is even with the company in a few months. She will go the way of Tough Enough winner Linda Miles. Anyone remember what Linda did? Me neither.

 

[WWTNA]

Wow! Kaitlyn is hot as hell but lets face it, she cannot wrestle out of a paper bag! Now we get to see worst wrestling from the next breakout diva! The fans or WWE creatives have to be morons to think that she is the next breakout diva! I guess you have to look like a hot model to be an actual wrestler now a days....

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

As we have learned from NXT, the person you want to have win is the person who would otherwise have found it hard to get by just like kaval in season 2. Actually, barrett is an exception to this because he was thye best but no matter. What i mean is that A-Ri was going to be around as the miz's stooge so he didn't have to win, hucky harris and mcguillicuty were going to be around in nexus so they didn't have to win. Kaval would have had trouble remaining without the win, SO THATS WHY HE GOT THE WIN!

So if were all honest, the way WWE has taken a shining to kaitlin, she would have been around even had she not won, so would it not have been a good idea to have either A.J. or naomi win perhaps. Well I can answer that question but I shouldn't have to ask it! WWE dropped the ball on their women's divison again....

 

[The Raven's Epitaph]

Kaitlyn was my favourite in NXT3, and she was my pick to win from the get go; but I'll be the first to say that she wasn't the most talented rookie diva in the competition.

Kaitlyn had a great oppurtunity to prove herself most weeks, she was probably given more time than Aksana was. She took the spotlight from Vickie Guerrero, stole her boyfriend and was on both Raw and Smackdown aswell as being a contestant on NXT. Not many of the Divas could say that.

Her mic skills could do with abit of work. If she's to become a 'professional' diva now, then she needs to get out of the habit of giggling after every sentence and acting like a teenage girl. Be that as it may, her in-ring skills aren't brilliant. She looks slow and sloppy sometimes, but other times she can be quick and aggresive; she was the strongest person in NXT3.

I'll be watching Kaitlyn from now on, even if she loses her matches. I'm interested in seeing how she develops and fits herself into the professional areas of the business. Maybe even a title run? Who knows. I'll be watching.

 

[Dagger Dias]

Well Kaitlyn is the winner and will likely be getting a Divas Championship match sometime soon. I don't think that her win will do much for the division because, as D-Man pointed out, someone with her level of ability is not going to be what fixes an almost dead division. They should have given the win to one of the more talented girls because she could have been someone to help rebuild the divas division with. Kaitlyn will likely lose her title match anyway.

 

[rocknblues81]

C'mon, Kaitlyn won because she is white and she fits the bimbo/flaky personality that WWE looks for. Black chicks shouldn't even fool with WWE. I mean, it's geared toward white guys and kids. Think about it, is it really a coincidence that Alicia Fox consistently looks like the worst diva and always losses with the exception of that brief title run she had?

Playing the race card...It doesn't get more pathetic than that. Alicia Fox loses because she is horrible in the ring and looks absolutely disgusting when she sweats. If your racism claim was true then Naomi wouldn't even have made it to the finals. Stop whining just because the winner wasn't your race.

I'm white and not black and there is nothing more pathetic than someone that ignores that racism still exists.

ALL of the Diva's are horrible in the ring. They're all annoying as well. Fox is no different, but the even the Bella Twins get to look better and the only thing they can do is the old switch thing they always do. That's the extent of their skills. But they don't get embarrassed in 1:30 second type of matches, do they?

If your racism claim was true then Naomi wouldn't even have made it to the finals.

Yeah, and racists never have black friends.

How many non white WWE champs have they're been the last 30 years? How many non white guys are getting championship type pushes? They have typical stereotypical black mid-card rapper type of guys, but that's about it.

I;m upset because the untalented bimbo Kaitlyn won. She doesn't deserve to be called a Pro Wrestler or anything else Pro other than possibly a porn star or hooker.

Because of her race? Seriously?? SERIOUSLY??? Then I guess Jazz's run as Women's Champion is meaningless... or Jacqueline's multiple runs... or Alicia Fox's title run...

This is such a bullshit claim. You mention Alicia Fox's lackluster title reign and how she "consistently looks like the worst diva" when, in face, she IS one of the worse divas. She's not THAT good-looking, she really sucks balls in the ring, and the only thing interesting about her is the horrific way she swings her hips as she walks down to the ring. She has no mic skills and just doesn't have anything interesting about her.

At least Kaitlyn had a personality on NXT, she is a gorgeous woman, and she has improved since her initial outing. While I do not feel she should have won NXT over AJ, she's still got more to offer the fans of the WWE than Naomi does. You'll get good matches out of Naomi, but she has an extremely fat ass and zero personality.

How long did Fox's title run last?

Nobody said Fox wasn't horrible, but so all the other ones. But yet, Fox get's squashed in 1 minute basically every match now. The Bella's are even less talented, but heck... They always get to win. Why?

I don't consider the superficial bimbo personality to be much of a personality at all. She isn't all that good looking of a woman either. I mean, better looking women can be found easily if that's all you're looking for. Kate basically looks like a B level porn star at best because she has no exotic look to her at all. I mean sheesh.... When I want to see that I can find it easily on the net. But when I watch wrestling, I would like to see someone that actually doesn't suck. But that's all Vince seems to be about now. Sucky programming.

Her winning is just another example of how horrible WWE programming has got. But hey, now if Naomi sticks.... Well, at lest Alicia can't be called the token black girl in WWE anymore. The rumors say that Naomi will be sticking around even though she didn't win.

 

[D-Man]

She was shit so it didn't last long.

Who were the "other ones"? I don't know what you mean.

And Fox is a women's jobber now because that's what happens to unpopular divas that don't cut the mustard. Gail Kim is an even WORSE jobber. Do you think it's because she's Asian?

I don't consider the superficial bimbo personality to be much of a personality at all. She isn't all that good looking of a woman either.

You're clearly the minority on that claim. While subjective, it's blatantly clear that she's a beautiful woman.

That leaves out Alicia Fox then.

But that's all Vince seems to be about now. Sucky programming. Kate winning is just another example of how horrible WWE programming has got.

She's built like a brick shithouse, is a beautiful woman, and has a good personality and shows improvement. How is that better than Naomi who doesn't have any of those characteristics?

But hey, now if Naomi sticks.... Well, at lest Alicia can't be called the token black girl in WWE anymore. The rumors say that Naomi will be sticking around even though she didn't win.

Man, you really need to stop being so biased. It's not about race so you need to get over it.

Kelly Kelly
McCool
Eve Torres

etc....

You're clearly the minority on that claim. While subjective, it's blatantly clear that she's a beautiful woman.

What makes her beautiful? Her flake personality? Her facial features aren't very exotic so I don't know what is supposed to be the standout there. She just looks like a B grade American porn star to me. Nothing special at all. I mean, since they simply want to throw people in there for looks, they really could find better than her.

And Alicia Fox is different than her in what way?

Where did I ever say Fox was good? I simply said she's no worse than most of the rest, but she is the only one that gets embarrassed every single match.

She's built like a brick shithouse, is a beautiful woman, and has a good personality and shows improvement. How is that better than Naomi who doesn't have any of those characteristics?

Kate is the unskilled hack. Finding and looking at attractive women is one of the easiest thing to find elsewhere. If I wanted to look at B rate pornstars, I know where to find them. But when I watch WWE I kind of like to see people that have some kind of talent. None of the WWE diva's have any. They're horrible.

If this is the best Vince can do with the diva division, he should release all of them and scrap the division all together. It wouldn't hurt my feelings any if he released them all.

Man, you really need to stop being so biased. It's not about race so you need to get over it.

How many years has Fox been the token black chick now?

 

[AndyUK]

I'm upset because the untalented bimbo Kaitlyn won. She doesn't deserve to be called a Pro Wrestler or anything else Pro other than possibly a porn star or hooker.

God, you're harsh. Not even going to get into the whole racism thing but she'd had no in-ring experience at all before NXT. Considering that, I don't think she's done half bad. Doesn't deserve all those insults being thrown her way just because she won win some show that WWE didn't even take seriously on screen. Considering that the show was basically a joke, I don't know how you can be upset about it either.

Anyway, I really don't know why her winning is such a big deal for some people. At the end of the day, does it really matter who wins these competitions? Most of the talent will still get on the main roster anyway and AJ and Naomi have their wrestling ability to help them get over, or at least get over by a Diva's standards, when they get there.

She's hot and she's got a personality. You can't learn hotness and you can't learn to get a personality but you can learn to wrestle.
