Ok, but they didn't need to have Paige call her a man. Paige could have said something like "yeah, Tamina, you're big and strong and tough and scary looking....but you have proven and accomplished NOTHING so far in your career!" But instead, WWE took the lazy, predictable and played out "derp, she's big and doesn't look like a playboy bunny, let's call her a man" route. That's not only bad script writing, but it's disrespectful. So now young girls and women out there watching WWE who don't fit into the "diva mold" are going to feel self conscious of their appearance. Exactly. There are 100 ways to insult someone without going for the cheap/lazy route. Just like Cena calling Lana a "ho" when she has never (on tv at that time) exhibited any type of "ho-like" behavior. It's a gradeschool bully insult and bad writing. It makes me feel as if Jerry Lawler wrote that promo. Granted they cut the best stuff out of it because she mentioned botchamania. However the cheap route has always been the case with anything to do with divas. During a bertha faye match at one of the summerslams lawler throughout the entire match made fat jokes and eating jokes. It went on and on and on and really just killed the match. That wasn't the first time that has happened and surely wont be the last because WWE has no idea how to book or discuss women.

Paige is just awful on the mic, awful in the ring and awfully overated.

I don't think Paige is that bad on the mic, but she's not great either. Most of the time she's average, and works way better in backstage segments. You know, those little things they never do anymore unless it's just Seth and Kane arguing in their office for five minutes?
However most of the other women are downright awful on the mic. The only one in recent years who's been "good" on the mic was AJ.

Never got the hype around Paige or Emma. I haven't been impressed by anything those two have done and thought both of their NXT matches were over rated. Paige can be very sloppy and she loudly calls out moves, I don't get the hype at all. Emma is boring to me. Naomi has been on a roll with her heel turn and I can't wait for her to win the divas title. She shined last night. Paige has sloppy moments, but Naomi is one of the sloppiest Divas I've ever seen. I don't get the hype with her at all. I've only seen one memorable/really good Naomi match in history and that was against AJ Lee on Season 3 of NXT. If there are others I'm missing, I would love to be pointed in the direction, so I can check them out. Naomi vs Serena from FCW when she won the title.

Naomi is gold right now. I think its personal bias that has some people feeling she doesn't have it. Good promo overall but Nikki just seems to be in the way.

Watching it now, neither girl was great but Naomi does seem more comfortable as a heel. She's still not very good but it's better than face Naomi. Also, there is a reason why Naomi has been there for a while and hasn't been Divas Champion. ^ This
Naomi is probably the worst diva on the mic ever imo.

Count me in the group that thought Paige's promo was cringeworthy. But I really liked Naomi's promo; that was the best kind of heel promo -- the kind that has a ring of truth instead of just a barrage of cheap insults. The first couple of weeks as a heel Naomi looked lost out there, but she's really embraced it recently.

Noami is by far one of the worst talkers in the company. She is always yelling and acting ratchet like that is what you consider a good heel. She basically is a cheap imitation of Sasha Banks.

I absolutely cannot stand her voice.
But I like most everything else about her.

Not a fan of Paige at all. I don't care about anything she does. She just bores me.

I like her interview style. The arrogance is great. Too bad she's a babyface. She comes off as a cocky bitch to me. Well, you can have arrogant or sarcastic faces, so that part isn't really a problem. Unfortunately, WWE often doesn't do a good job of treating women as faces or heels, the idea being that women are all just awful to each other. What the true cause of her gimmick is here, I don't know.

"Nikki Bella doesn't deserve to be the Divas Championship!", see you at Botchamania.

She's a good technical women's wrestler. And sometimes can cut a decent promo. She's cute on total divas at times. I'm also DYING to find her figure rn.
But she is extremely overrated. And I also hate hate HATE when she says "this is my house ". No. It's not. She's like 22. And has tons of dues to pay in that specific company until she can consider it "her house" If she's heel it kinda works but as a face it's just disturbing. It makes me want Lita or Molly Holly to come back for one more and kick her ass

Still don't think it's as bad of a insult as Snickelfritz or Clownshoes.

Then she kept doing it as a face. It seems like a case of the WWE finding something they thought was cool and running it into the ground. Similar to the "whole world in my hands" thing.
