The latest issue of The Wrestler/Inside Wrestling has an article on reigning TNA Women’s Knockout Champion Taylor Wilde. Wilde talks about her wrestling career and gives insight on why WWE’s women division is so much different than TNA’s. “The WWE developmental system has changed women’s wrestling for WWE,” the TNA Women’s Knockout Champion said. “The first thing that comes to mind when you think of TNA women’s wrestling is diversity. Knockouts have so many different flavors of girls - short, tall, different weight classes, and racial backgrounds. And it makes for much more of an interesting division, wrestling aside. WWE has come to a point where they have a lot of models, and they’re clean-cut and cookie cutter-esque. There are only a few girls in developmental, and you can’t work outside your territory. Their ability to get experience outside of five girls is lacking. Everyone picks up the same skills and it all goes back to diversity. TNA Knockouts are girls I’ve seen travel the world and have a lot of experience, and it shows in the ring.”

More like... it's not so much of a "shot" since TNA can't seem to shut up about it.
It's hilarious, tbh... with everything TNA does wrong (in an attempt to be sports entertainment), they do one thing right (unintentionally mind you) so that's the thing they have to stick it to WWE with... accept the one thing they do right still only gets a fraction of the ratings and success of anything WWE does wrong.
Not to mention their most promoted knockout is the wife of WWE's most significant hand-me-down who isn't even a wrestler... so much for showing off that "talent" of which TNA speaks.

For years? Didn't TNA's KnockOut Division become basically established a year ago?

Has nothing to do with TNA's division at all - just fact.

The only "cookie-cutter look-alikes" WWE has are Kelly Kelly and Tiffany from ECW. Otherwise, they mostly all look different. Though, I think her comment on how WWE only lets thier developmental divas work in FCW and not go to only indy feds to pick up other experience has some truth to it.

She is probally still bitter that they released her dumb ass because she sucks.
I hate that bitch anyways so I'm glad she will NEVER win the women's title.
She can act like she is great for holding that white piece of crapbut she isn't.
I hope she loses to Angelina.

Hey, she was good enough for WWE to put her under a mask and let her beat MEN she was THAT good. Yeah, but if she ws in WWE you would probally love her. I also find it funny you bash the Knockouts title - alteast it's not a butterfly..

I also find it funny you bash the Knockouts title - alteast it's not a butterfly.. If she was so GOOD then she wouldn't have gotten released. I wouldn't like her if she w as in the wwe because I think her moves are dumb. She is NO alundra blaze so she can stop trying with her german suplex.. I don't like the diva's title either. It is as wothless as the KO's title when you compare it to the history of the wwe women's title.

It's so ironic you say that yet Michelle McCool has the "Divas" title, she's the epitome of a talentless skank. Taylor Wilde > Michelle McCool Ever since Trish and Lita both retired I stopped caring about women's wrestling in WWE.

I <3 how you're always trying to run down the Knockouts division like it's nothing. WWE would kill to have the same response and match quailty TNA has hence why they hired Gail back. What's also funny is the fact that you bash the division yet the womens title went from having The Fabulou Moolah to Candice Michelle..

Tna would love to have the same ratings as wwe but that will never happen.. For the record I don't even like Michelle mccool or the diva's title.

If so Lita is trying to copy Kejoh Mutoh by using a Moonsault.

What does ratings have to do with ANYTHING I just said? That's right - it doesn't.

A defenition of response right from dictionary.com: The manner in which something is greeted. TNA's entire product is greeted with BAD RATINGS! Thus TNA would kill to have the same response as WWE.

That has NOTHING to do with ratings dude. That's the problem everyone looks so into ratings but fails to remember in the world we live intoday we have DVR's and Tivo's which are NOT counted in ratings. Therefor there is never a far gone conclusion on the ratings. It's just a guess really.. Greeted as in - the fans giving Kong vs. Gail Kim 4-5 stars each time they've got a match, greeted as in - fans (not just in Orlando) chanting "This is Awesome" and "TNA" during a Knockouts match, greeted as in when the Knockotus come out you don't run for the nearest bathroom.

Yes it does you are just too dumb to understand. So you think that TNA should have higher ratings because the DVRs aren't counted. That means everything would have higher ratings. People still run to the bathroom when knockouts have matches.
