So I know for years people bashed Nikki and Brie at times for their wrestling, but this isn't about their wrestling ability.
Last night it just really hit me that Brie and Nikki do not belong in a WWE ring now. They reek of the 'divas era' and the night before seeing Maryse and Brie was a big eye opener to that as well.
Does anyone else think Brie and Nikki don't fit anymore?? And again, this isn't about their wrestling.

I don't disagree. I think Lana and Maryse fall into the same category as well.

I think they've always been a bit crap. It's just more noticeable today with more quality females on the roster.

They may not, but I do think if they have a few women on the roster with the diva gimmick like Carmella also it does help a bit. It's good to have the 'love to hate' posh, prissy type characters along with the Sonya Deville, Ruby, Becky and Ronda types to mix it up. Even though the Bella Twins usually just have the 'go away' heat with me lol. So long as it's only a gimmick and they don't look to the swimsuit magazines for talent anymore like the Johnny Ace days-which look to be in the distant rear view mirror now. It seems though sadly and depressing as it is as for me, as long as people are still obsessed with reality TV and their shows are still popular and getting mainstream attention, WWE will be putting them in top spots whenever their shows have season premieres and the like. Just look at the mixed tag match. It was pretty much just a commercial for their shows. Not to mention being married to Bryan and the whole Cena thing, which is always gonna help keep them in the spotlight lol.

We have to have some good looking people to look at, and most of the women they have today aren't lookers at all.

When it comes to branding and marketing themselves through Total Divas as well as their own show, I give them all the credit in the world for the success they've achieved.
Regarding their role with the whole Women's Revolution, I don't think they deserve any credit. Sure, they improved over the years, but they are cut from that old Diva mold where looks came first and in-ring stuff was secondary. Both are just honestly not that good especially compared to the current crop of women wrestlers who've risen in the last few years.

Brie Bella should have just retired and not come back. She can't wrestle.

Disagree. they've improved, in ring wise, are hot, and have lots of charisma, they can only benefit from having a stronger women's division, much in the same way Trish did.

Very talentless, neither can wrestle or talk. Had they not slept their way to where they are now, they wouldn't be anywhere near WWE programming today. Just Kardashian wannabes. |

I can’t stand them. Any segment they are in is trash and their acting is horrible. I’d even go as far as to say that I’m starting to not like Daniel Bryan as much due to his on air time spent in segments with Brie Bella

great point!!! and let's face it, without Bryan and Cena they would not be so relevant today.
Started off as eye candy and if you follow them on social media that's all they are really.
BRIEEEE MODE!!! (Splat!)

They are relics from the Divas era of signing swimsuit models over actual wrestlers and still being shoved down fans throats like Roman Reigns.

No, I mean all the of the Women’s division are part of The Boys. There isn’t that girly girl chick anymore. Most are happy because its a step forward, but we gotsta have a Sable/Sunny/Torrie/Stacy stand along that doesn’t resemble a cardboard cut out of the 1990’s, but is attractive. |
