      One diva arrives and all of a sudden the division hasn't had this much promise in years? Are Emma and Paige capable of Trish/Lita type stuff?

        Was Barrett nursing an injury these past few months and is that the reason he's pretty much just been talking and not a lot of in ring stuff? Was good to see him get that reaction last night and am hoping it'll lead to something good coming up for him. He and Cesaro have been two of my favorites for a while now.

          Not that I know of. I wouldn't put much stock in post-Mania Raw. WWE tends to cater to the crowd in attendance. Barrett could very well end up right back on that cherry picker and not see in ring action on Raw for another 3 months.

            If you haven't seen it yet, go watch Paige vs Emma on NXT Arrival. The only better match on the show was Cesaro vs Sami Zayn(which no one was going to top). They're capable. You just have to wonder how the women will be booked, history tells you they'll be booked really poorly. The sad part is, they actually have a deep womens division, they just don't let them show it.

              What I want to know is why does WWE feel the need to make all Divas in ring talents. Most of them would serve a greater purpose as a valet. Have whatever Superstar she is paired with have cameos on Total Divas. More tv time never hurts.

              Save in-ring stuff for those with wrestling backgrounds. Not saying the occasional mixed tag can't happen. But do we really need Summer Rae working wrestling matches all the time?

                I see the future of the (actual wrestling girls) in the Divas Division being, Paige, AJ, Brie Bella, Emma, Charlotte (NXT), Sasha Banks (NXT), Natalya and Naomi.

                  Those are the same girls I had in mind as well bro. All of those girls can go if WWE uses them right and actually gives them time to show off. 10-15 minute matches can go a long way to showcasing talent. Unless that's too long for a "normal" type match.

                    The problem most of the women have is that they don't have distinct personalities, and if they do, they're not given any time to show it. AJ clearly does, Paige does in NXT(we'll see what they do on the main roster), Emma is sort of this goofy/clumsy girl who works very well, but we've seen already that on the main roster shes just a joke character.

                        Yeah - hope they give Paige some promo time to go with the anti-Diva thing...that is, if she's even continuing that.

                        I'm still upset that they haven't given Emma anything . It's not like it's a deep character, but all we get is Michael Cole and his "I LOVE THIS DANCE!!" to try and get it over.

                          Raw draws the highest ratings since Raw 1,000.

                          Ratings and show quality both increase after CM Punk leaves and Batista returns. HHH really doing what is best for business. CM Punk will be wrestling in front of 450 in Global Force Wrestling while "The Animal" is selling out arenas that sits tens of thousands.

                          No better time to be a wrestling fan.

                              What a couple of days.

                              My goodness, HHH has put away the shovels and found a halo from somewhere. The ONLY thing that I would have liked more at WM was a longer Shield match. Apart from that I think WWE have played this pretty much perfectly.

                              I have a slight concern that the roster is getting too large, but with the Network coming in hopefully guys like Hawkins, Tyson Kidd, Xavier Woods and Zack Ryder will get more time to put on good matches, which they are all capable of.

                              Quick thoughts on the debutants: Rusev is big, athletic, powerful and he can go. Paige - Adam Rose - I enjoyed Leo Kruger so I'm a bit disappointed he didn't get the call then, but this could be something good for him. I just hope he gets a chance to wrestle as he is very good. Bo Dallas - I think this delusional babyface thing could be a stroke of genius. He is genuinely entertaining now and is decent in the ring.

                              Daniel Bryan needs to cut his hair and beard but apart from that he can do no wrong!

                                It's sad how selfish Punk is, he showed it was just about him in his last run after he dropped the belt. He became so dull. And it really is great time for wrestling.
