The Network broadcast is the first I've been able to see of Total Divas. Right now, Vinnie and Ariane are fighting because his penis is too big and having sex hurts her. This. This is what large parts of Raw are being focused on. (At least Trinity is p.cool)

I'm more disturbed by the how frequently they're on their phones while driving, and within that how rare it is they are using hands-free sets.

I can't see them upholding the no-Total-Divas-get-the-title rule with Paige involved. That would limit how many women could hold the title to basically just AJ, Emma and Tamina, and even if they brought up NXT women to compensate, that's still a very limited pool. I would hope that by adding Alicia Fox and Paige they're just opening up their options for crossover storylines and are trying to bring more of the Total Divas audience in to the wrestling shows and/or giving themselves more of an excuse to involve Total Divas with whatever is happening with the belt. It's not like they would have taken the belt off AJ if she'd agreed to be on the show.

Yeah, I meant to mention that and forgot while typing. Tweets don't mean poo poo and Paige will hashtag just about anything, but that is a bit of an odd one to come up with. Very choice wording.

It's wrestling, of course they're making her tee-hee gay. Also, seriously: the gently caress else would you have Rosa Mendes do? I'm surprised they trusted her with anything more than a handshake.

Yeah, I watched quite recently when Regal was tweeting about Robbie a bunch. It did make me think that they're kinda wasting Regal now by not using him as a heel manager full time. Adrian Neville's not exactly dynamite on the mic, Regal would be an excellent mouthpiece for him. I hope he's at least able to spend a lot of time with the NXT talent and pass some of that on.

Even Eva Marie has done (very, very slightly) better in NXT than on Raw or Smackdown. No woman or midcard man deserves to be judged solely on what they get to do on Raw/Smackdown.

She didn't actually gently caress up in that match, though, which is a step up from any Raw match she's had. I mean yes we're talking the most backhanded of compliments here, but going <3 minutes without being totally poo poo is an improvement.

Naomi/Trinity comes across as a pretty stable, positive role model. ed: Oh yeah they ditched her, nevermind. I guess Paige and Alicia? Not that they've done much yet.

I just kept laughing every time Eva talked about working hard to be at the top and losing her 'push'. As for it reflecting on WWE, it's a reality show. Everything is sculpted to be as much of an end-times, career- and relationship-ending big deal as possible. Have you never watched a reality show before? Spilling someone's drink is played out like a death threat. Fearing your job is at risk if you get a bit of a cough is absolutely standard for all such shows.

I, for my sins, have somehow* ended up watching Laguna Beach, The Hills, The City, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Made In Chelsea and LA Ink. (Granted the last one isn't quite the same, but they still overreact to everything.) Eventually you do become jaded/immune enough to the formula to spot these patterns. Never think anything on a reality show actually reflects reality in any way. It's much wiser to simply assume it's as scripted and edited as an episode of Smackdown. *okay, I love this trash poo poo really

DB, Titus, Paige and Alicia should have their own show. They can just walk around telling people what the gently caress. And I know it's scripted to buggery, but Rosa is now more obnoxious than Eva or Cameron have ever been. Hell, I'll even go so far as to say Eva's downfall-of-the-week seemed genuinely sympathetic on this episode. Rosa is just loving intolerable even by faux-reality standards.

I really do not like Rosa and of all the on-screen employees of WWE I do think she is the first who should be given the boot. Even without the Total Divas magnified-for-TV drama, I consider her aggressively bad enough on Raw and Smackdown that she should be cut. However, I also completely understand why she's still around, even if I'd rather she was not. edit: I can not believe I wrote all those words about Rosa loving Mendes I mean jesus gently caress why. God help me.

She's not been on WWE TV much, either. She was doing house shows tagging with Sasha Banks for a while, but Alicia Fox seems to have taken that spot now. Which is ironic.

I love Brie of 'Brie mode' fame not knowing what Sambuca's meant to taste like, though having your own theme on your phone is redemption enough. Wouldn't pick Bimingham myself (famed for stabbings, prostitution, rape and misery), but I do want a night out drinking with Paige and Brie with ~*brie mo0o0ode*~ playing constantly. Curse that Dan Ryckert's luck. And all it took was a 5 second clip of Eva from next week to bring me down again.

They seem to have really given up with Eva this season. She's just... there. ed: look, I know it's as fake as anything, but are we really supposed to buy that TJ could just gently caress off to a modelling career without all-controlling WWE caring?

Her brothers are still working as a tag team at whatever B-tier UK promotions need bodies to fill a card and keep telling people to harass Triple H into hiring them. The younger one had a kid shortly after (during?) filming that documentary and has kept relatively quiet by Knight family standards; he's put on a bit of weight and I don't believe he's had any contact with WWE since his Smackdown appearance. The elder one mostly complains about messing up his football career, and, ironically enough, now has a really tasteless sleeve of a naked anime girl.

I would honestly forgive Vince and Kevin of their many, many flaws and mistakes if they had Nikki Bella walk while being Divas champion. Then come back demanding ice cream bars.

I bet they gave her some ridiculous contract upfront because they thought she would be this big breakout star and they didn't learn any lessons from Kelly Kelly. They've very noticably given her the bare minimum screen time on Raw and Smackdown and on this they've kept her away from the other women for most of the last season and a half. They've moved Jojo, Naomi and Summer Rae on easily enough, so I assume they would have gotten rid of Eva by now if they could. Either that or Executive Producer Kevin is the one dictating the cast.

Until now, I had assumed it was Cameron the others were making GBS threads on, given she's not been on TV in an age and she's just as bad as and more transparent than Eva.

She was right, though. I can't stand when American tourists come over here and try to do "British" things which aren't actually typically British and are more often than not some sort of thinly-veiled joke at our expense. (I used to work at a tea rooms. It was nothing but tourists.) (gently caress Nikki.)
