    Adding AJ to the mix, spices things up some. The way Paige won the title and everything after it has been meh. She was getting no real reaction as a face.

        Man, I cannot disagree with this more. How many times has someone won the title in their debut and be able to build up any sort of head of steam whatsoever? She was shown to get a "fluke" win, then was thrust into being the young, lucky champion that is somehow able to keep squeaking out victories. That's not a gimmick that can carry you very far. The building of a character is in the chase. You don't have to look back further than one year to see that. Daniel Bryan became a huge star because he couldn't grab the brass ring. But he chased it, month after month, and became the biggest star in WWE. Paige had nowhere to go but down and was booked to get a pop one time with no long term planning. Terrible booking for her.

          In the end of all her *** kickings she always came out on top. It was Paige Cena. Nothing the Divas did affected her at all. And she never connected with the fans on any level. And to be quite frank, she was boring as hell.

            She deserved much better booking, man. They booked her to look weak and like she never actually deserved to win matches, let alone the title.

                Because in all honesty, she didn't really deserve the title.

                  This pretty much ends all discussion right here on the subject

                  If AJ had to lose it should have been to like Naomi or Natalya, Paige debuts and works her way to a good feud for the title

                      Plenty of other talents manage to get over despite poor booking. She failed to connect with the live audience. She's as much to blame as anyone.

                          She failed to get over because she came into a division that no one gave a **** about.

                                Please tell me a few of these other talents who won the biggest title possible in their debut match. I don't care who you are. You aren't going to get over after being put in that situation.
