There's always discussion about how the WWE Divas division is lackluster, and the Divas Championship means very little especially compared to the Women's Championship of the past. I have noticed over the years that WWE is usually in a struggle to please existing core fans as well as attract new ones who aren't currently watching. This has led to, in the Divas division, a smattering of talent with a variety of assets and usually just as many faults. You have strong, skilled women who can't cut a promo to save their life. You have sexy, charismatic women who make a complete mockery of the event when they attempt a wrestling match. The Butterfly Title just casually switches hands between all of them, usually for no particular reason at all. What can you do to fix this? How do you please the existing fans who like engrossing stories and in-ring action, as well as draw in new fans who are easliy dazzled by sparkly breasts and long blonde hair?
If it were up to me, I would steal an idea from TNA. I'd introduce a Divas Tag Team Championship.
I'm sure plenty of folks will say that it would do just as much good for WWE as the Knockouts Tag titles did for TNA: no good at all. TNA's women's titles are so worthless that one is currently held by a male comedy jobber. WWE would have to give a f#ck, and I know that's apparently impossible in the misogynistic world of wrestling, but if they did they would have a much deeper, interesting and effective offering of women's wrestling than they currently have.
A pair of WWE Divas Tag Team Championships would create a new goal for the female wrestlers on the roster. It would create a reason for actual female tag teams to join up, whereas in recent WWE history female teams have no championship to represent that they are the best. Also it would make the Divas Championship scene smaller, leaving only room for the top Diva talents and lesser athletes could form a team to make up for their flaws.
Please add your ideas to this thread regarding how you'd fix the Divas division, what you'd add or take away, and what you'd like to see.
