Welcome to this week’s edition of Unwrapped! As always, we will be grading all of the new photoshoots (or “eye candy”, as we like to call them) from the week gone by, judging them like so:
Sweet (Great) • Bland (Iffy) • Sour (Awful)
You, the reader, will also get the chance to grade the “eye candy” yourself by giving your opinion on each shoot and voting for your favorite out of the whole bunch. Now, dive in!
Beth Phoenix’s Lady in Red
Grade: Sweet. Beth Phoenix may have had a short stint as the current reigning Women’s Champion, but at least she left a pretty decent photshoot in her wake! This attire is possibly the most appealing Beth has in her repertoire. Luckily, the red-and-black combination photographs just as well as it looks on television. A couple of the poses are more imaginative than your typical stone-faced vogue-ing. These bits of playfulness and cheerfulness show a different (and more pleasant) side to the Glamazon.

Natalya’s Change of Hart
Grade: Bland. The title of this photoshoot may serve to be ironic as there appears to be little to no variety between Natalya’s photos. This is your typical series featuring Natalya donning her Hart badge of honor. It is not quite ‘sour’ as she earns points for consistency (not to mention color coordination)! However, what Natalya’s portfolio could use is a little less pink and a little bit more imagination.

Savannah’s Rockin’ Chair
Grade: Bland. Yet another Diva lacking alternatives is none other than NXT’s Savannah. WWE seems to be fond of bland backgrounds and Divas leaning on furniture. Unfortunately, this is Savannah’s third strike! There’s only so much one Diva can do with a chair and a limited palette of facial expressions. Savannah looks presentable, but WWE’s lack of creativity is too stifling to pass for ‘sweet.’

Eve Torres’s Eve-n Flow
Grade: Sour. This trend of depicting Divas in greyscale leaves much to be desired. The use of greyscale here reads bland because it lacks contrast. The desire to be artistic can be admired, but the objective of this photoshoot is unclear. The total disregard for shade levels leaves Eve looking “washed out” rather than “knockout.”

I thought both Beth and Nattie had great shoots this week. I don’t like how Eve’s photoshoot was in gray? I found that kind of strange.
My favorite this week was Nattie and Beth, but if I had to pick one, it would be Beth =P I also liked Savannah’s shoot. Eve’s would have been great (probably the best this week) if it wasn’t black and white.
Eve’s was rated Sour? I have to disagree, she looks awesome. Every pose was different and I loved the pics. She’s my favourite this week followed by Beth, then Nattie and Savannah.
I actually liked Eve’s shoot. “OMG b&w how boring!”
Her outfit is so sparkly and shiny and intricate that it actually works well with the b&w, there is enough detail there to really make the images pop.
Eve looks freaking weird in her photoshoot. It looks like they put to much photoshop in it. My favourite was Beth’s. She looks gorgeous and her smile is so warm and beautiful
all I got to say about Eve’s photoshoot is say it with me everyone color black and white doesn’t work for Eve.
The tricky thing about black and white photos is that they really are unforgiving when it comes to any harshness in the face.. Even with photoshop’ing. I think those photos reaffirmed how unattractive I think Eve is. Plus, black and white photos are suppose to be artsy – fartsy. That set just looks like they had a few left over from that shoot they released a few weeks ago, hit the decolorized option and went “Okay boys, we have a new photoshoot!”
how many times are we gonna see Nattie in that dang attire? We get it. She likes pink and black. She has Hart. She needs to be photoshopped. Is there anything else about this woman?
Pretty bad week for photoshoots over all. lol
Beth owns :)
Beth looks so fabulous in this outfit, and her poses/expressions are beautiful! We always knew she had that playful side in her, and it’s nice to see it captured in photos. <3
