There's Something About Kelly Kelly...

[jacdnwarrior]

Kelly isn't great in the ring but she has improved. I think WWE has gone a long way to push her as the face of the divas division because she's got a pretty face and a killer bod and the fans seem to like her.

There is no reason for Orton to even joke like that. I mean after seeing what happened to Lita over the Edge/ Matt Hardy situation, I think it's really unwise to broadcast things about other performers' personal lives. It just wasn't necessary. Add to that how many male performers are doing the exact same thing ? Would he out them so easily or even joke about their private lives ? I think it was just a stupid thing to do.

 

[Dilligaf]

I agree with jacdnwarrior, she has come on a little bit since extreme expose, but only a little bit.

I was thinking the other day that she is slowly being transformed into the female super cena, as raw & smackdown is all KK,Eve and the bellas in some fashion, with a little bit of the DoD.

There are way better women talent than the above mentioned (not DoD), but it seems if you aint an ex model/stick insect you dont get no-where in WWE in recent times, just look what happened to Melina, Gail Kim & Mickie James.

While eye candy is nice, it would be nice to see women who can ACTUALLY wrestle.

 

[beckyh]

Now don't say the "w" word

The Divas division really does not do much. I would send most of them home and have some that are arm candy, managers, fake girlfriends, etc.

 

[Heavens Vibe]

The divas division isn't as bad as it was say 3-4 months ago, but im just sick of the roll ups...and kelly kelly is a prime example of the roll up..thats become her finisher for me because she doesnt seem to have another 1...

 

[cornucopia]

In my opinion, most people are too hard on the Divas. They seem to try their best and have to deal with the fans who will hate on them no matter what they do.

They also have to deal with immature, sexist, angry men and women who will crap on them for ridiculous reasons. So with just that they have to deal with a different type of adversity than the males do. Especially when it comes to slanderous and judgmental comments about their personal lives.

I don't care what the wrestlers do in their personal lives anymore than I care what my co-workers do. If it's not involving me or hurting me its none of my business.

Some people have no tolerance for different lifestyles and thats too bad for them. If Kelly Kelly is premiscuous and you don't like premiscuous women, then too damn bad because personal freedom and privacy make it none of your damn business.

Other peoples choices, you can either like 'em or learn to live with 'em.

 

[Jessie Lynn DivaGirl]

Oh dear God I hope not. Honestly, I've enever liked Kelly Kelly. She struck me as someone who got lucky when she won. Which is pretty much true. Plus she cries every other week when a Diva kicks her skinny butt. I'm 15 and I only cry about once a month, if that. Okay, I'm not trying to make myself seem better than her but I'm just saying; that makes her look too pathetic for words. I mean seriously; she is the only person in the WWE who CRIES when they get tossed around. The only time you see a diva cry is when her boyfriend back stabs her or breaks up with her or when they're getting picked on so much they can't hold it in. The Divas division is supposed to show that even good-looking women can fight for themselves and still be good eye-candy for the guys. Kelly Kelly kind of ruins that idea.

Now for this "Kelly is a hoe" idea that Randy Orton mentioned (not in those words; not even close). The fact is, she has been with more than one guy who wokrked in the WWE. Okay, so what? Unless she had these guys CONSECUTIVELY then it's not a big deal. I'm not lesbian when I say this, I'm just stating facts: She's hot enough that guys drool over her. Thus every guy wants to date her. Sometimes that proves to be bad for the girlfriend and she gets rid of him to go out and look for Mr Right yet again. Thus that makes the girlfriend (in this case Kelly) look lke a hoe. Oh please. I don't like her, but you know what, I feel bad for her. To have guys-will-drool-over-you looks is a sad thing to have.

But if she just ran from one guy to the next then you can ignore that paragraph. I wouldn't know, I don't know her personally. Either way 2 things are for sure:

1. Kelly Kelly will not be the female John Cena. That's stupid.

2. She has been with more than a few guys.

On a more personal note, is she still with Justin? Neither of them are on their Twitters like ever so I have no idea.

for all the people calling or insiuating that are calling kelly kelly a **** lets take a road down memory lane and talk a bout a girl named lita..... and how she learned how to wrestle... and then what she learned from edge while dating matt hardy. No wonder the guys a drunk and a fat loser?

No matter what happened between Hardy/Edge/Lita, is their business.

You cant blame whats happened to Matt on Lita, Matt is a grown man who can take care of himself.

Ive ACTUALLY met Lita at one of her gigs, and shes one of the nicest people ive ever met.

If anything its his current GF whos done this to him whatever the hell her name is, and hes gone off the wagon because he left WWE, if you ask me WWE kept him on the str8 & narrow.

 

[RavenChaos21]

Despite what we think we know about Kelly Kelly, she is not being pushed as the next female John Cena. However, I do agree that I see her being pushed heavily just to make the Divas of Destruction storyline work, which in all reality should work on its own. Beth Phoenix and Natalya are more than credible to plow through any diva in the locker room, even if they are not being booked as such.

As far as her personal life is concerned need we look at a few of the male superstars to arguue that wahat they do is their own business. CM Punk is rumoured to be a ****e as well as Batista. The point is what they do behind closed doors does not affect their in ring work and until that day comes that it does I am not going to judge someone just because they were a little lonely on the road and wanted some.

 

[The Calgary Kid]

CM Punk is rumoured to be a ****e as well as Batista.

Not to drag this off topic, but for clarity, Punk has been in a number of confirmed, long-term relationships with women in the industry, not going around being a man****e. Straight Edge also means not engaging in promiscuity.

As for the thread itself, I'm sick to death of Kelly. If she had a backstage segment or something, I'd probably look forward to seeing her every week. Unfortunately, we get to see her work some of the worst matches within the Divas division, and heaven forbid they give her a microphone, she's embarrassingly talentless in that department. She is the perfect example of the bimbo/Barbie doll "only there for her looks" Diva that people so often complain about. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge supporter of the division and think that people are often pretty harsh in their commentary, but KK is the poster child for the negative stigma associated with the argument.

Do I think KK will be the female Cena? I don't think so, and I sincerely hope not. Cena gets a bad rap for working one dimensional matches, but as we've all been reminded of in his matches with Punk, the guy can go when he wants to and is permitted to. Beth has clearly been carrying KK's weight in the ring (no pun intended) and made her look infinitely better in the process. Cena got to his Superman status through a lot of hard work, and that can't be denied, no matter how much I dislike his character or his constant possession of the belt. With Kelly, it's a bit different.

Kelly's face gets put on all of the marketing materials because she's arguably the most appealing Diva with respect to the average person's aesthetic preferences (personal preference, but among that type, I prefer Maryse). Pick up a magazine or a program and look at a generic WWE ad--she's on it and probably the only Diva featured. From a marketing standpoint, her having the belt makes sense, and as Vince reminds us, it's all about the money.

From a fan's perspective, and I'm not talking Little Jimmy here, it doesn't really make sense. Having the two most dominant, talented and impressive women in WWE jobbing every week is just silly to anyone who actively watches the show. Hell, even if you're watching for the first time. There is only so far that you can take the underdog, fluky upset booking, and two shows a week for a few months and two PPV matches is way beyond the threshold. I loved the DOD heel turn and initial agenda, but they need to start looking as dominant as they claim to be and we all know they can be. If Beth loses tomorrow, I will be pretty depressed.

 

[sikkbones]

another little bit of food for thought.. a few years ago... i think it was around 08/09 we could have been saying the same things about melina and her lockerroom relationships...

you wanna know the best things about the diva's? they conform to the stereotype....

which stereotype you might ask? the stereotype that says all women are ****es...
..and other than his wife that's how vince feels... for christ sake vince wanted to do an incest angle with his own daughter.

 

[beckyh]

Very few if any of the Divas were hired because they could wrestle. They are primarily eye candy. That is not necessarily a bad thing because I am sure that most knew that coming into the company.

Sexual 'diversity' is not an issue with just the women. There are plenty of stories about the guys with other women and the guys with other guys. Just like the steroid scandals from the past, there were a few of those as well.

That is a slight refresher. Barry O being Randy's uncle, for those who don't know. The company has had off and on scandals for decades.

i simply hate Kelly Kelly for one reason...She cant even run the fucking ropes!

It's disgraceful that a girl who cant do the most simple of wrestling basics can get a job over the likes of sara del rey and cheerleader melissa.

Even guys who normally get hate from the IWC have passion and respect for wrestling and i dont think kelly does. I dont hate her, i hate the fact she has a job and the divas title because she is good looking.

I defend WWE with the vast majority of the decisions they make even if i dont personally like them but man do i hate kelly fucking kelly

thats pretty much my feelings on her. She is, imo, the least talented person on the roster. Terrible in the ring, terrible on the mic. Shes obviously quite attractive but I dont even think shes the most attractive diva on the roster, let alone hot enough to make up for her total lack of talent. If the best WWE can do to get any sort of interest in womens matches is to give KK the title and let her run with it they might as well just eliminate the womens division.

 

[shooter_mcgavin]

I like the Diva's division ... when it's good. And Yes it has the potential to be good. But right now things are down the drain when Kelly kelly is the focus on the division and they let go of Mileena, Mickey James, and couldn't even have something for Gail Kim.

Last week's RAW where they had a video package for Kelly Kelly, sorry I was just laughing. She looked really bad in those clips of her moves (especially that weak roll up to win the title) and he does not have an athletic look in her body and just looks plain generic.

Dioes Kelly Kelly deserve a spot in the Diva's divison? Eh sure why not ... people have to eat right? But no way she should be in the spot she is right now. Right now she is jobber material.

she has had at least one athletic bone in her body... possibly many... i think she would fit right in with the TNA knockouts they all smell the same and you can yell they are all former ring rats that will never make it to the wwe without a boob job... and some won't even make that far... when kelly kellys looks start to decline she'll either marry someone in the buisness like michelle mcool... or she'll end up in tna.

 

[RicoLen]

You really think she'd marry Michelle Mcool?

Kelly Kelly really seems like the real John Cena in the WWE. Who the hell even likes her? And ugh... everything people say about John Cena really seems to apply quite nicely to Kelly Kelly.

Beth Phoenix really should have just buried her and been done with it. Sick of seeing Kelly Kelly on TV, WWE needs athletes, not playboy models. The whole Diva's division is so ridiculously vain it's pathetic, every single one of them wants to be hot, and who cares about being a wrestler.

 

[Dilligaf]

Privacy is the key these days.

You see all the time where celebs get their private life all over the newspapers.

And then Lita & Edge's get put into a storyline, whatever the guys & gals in WWE/TNA get up to behind the curtains is their business only, and no matter how ppl get into the wrestling biz again is their business, and which should be respected IMO.

Yeah, I have to agree but we could always go back to that old Eric Bischoff line of "Controversy creates cash". It doesn't fit the PG demo but it is always a thought.

As for KK... I was a bit obsessive over her before... She got on my nerves during her title run. I think losing the title was the best thing that happened to her. She needs more fluidity in the ring. She might be the hot bottle blond thin chick but she definitely needs to work on the movements. They still look very forced. I think that's what the issue is technically speaking.

As for her personal life... see above statements....

 

[Canadian Knight]

I don't think that they are intending to make KK into another John Cena, but what they want is eye candy. They want to have as much eye candy without being changed to PG (or higher). How you can tell? Gail Kim was overlooked and she has more wrestling talent then KK. She is also getting more exposure she made the Maxim Top 100. She also made the cover of Maxim's next month.

I honestly can't give a damn about the Divas Division even with gals like Beth Phoenix and the oh so overrated Natalya, however I do give it a chance and watch the matches every week. But that question there even I know the obvious answer to. She's pretty over, she gets cheered more than someone like John Morrison. She's average or a little below in the ring yeah, but she's over and that's why she got pushed so hard.

As to her being the Cena of the Divas Division, really? I seriously don't want to defend her but didn't she lose cleanly to Beth Phoenix on Smackdown last month in like a 2 minute match? No one would buy Kelly as the superwoman that never loses. But to be honest I'd rather see her than someone who the fans can't give a shit about like Eve Torres.

 

[Lockard23]

I don't care about the Divas. Sorry, but most of them can't wrestle and it's just horrible. I do like Phoenix, though. I wish they would just throw her in there with guys on occassion like they did with Chyna. We really don't need a Divas division, and certainly someone like Kelly Kelly around since she couldn't wrestle her way out of a t-shirt.
