True. Mostly because being a heel requires decent acting skills.

I have no issue with Nikki Bella i actually feel like she is the better wrestler of the the two but after all this hype and build up they have had with Beth and being unbeatable and no diva can take her out i mean you would think it would be Natalya, Kharma, Tamina maybe a push for Kaitlyn or AJ to take the belt of her but Nikki? ehh

OMG just get over it already. There’s absolutely zero point in looking at the negatives. Let’s just hope for Kharma to return and destroy the Bellas.

Well, Nikki pinned Beth & then had to fight for the match, so there was a story to this match. Not to mention Nikki took advantage of Beth’s injured ankle, so it was booked as an upset.
I love Beth but its time for a new champ & I’m glad it’s a first time champ. Nikki did well in the match & held her own. I’m excited to see what she does.
PS has anyone thought that Kharma may NOT feud with the Bella’s when she gets back? That promo was them mocking her then unborn child. I doubt Kharma wants to rehash her child’s death on TV. She’ll likely just be shown destroying random Divas again.

^Agreed.
Besides what makes people think that AJ beating Beth is any better than Nikki Bella beating her?

All the above chile boo i have the right to my opinion i have no problem with Nikki being the champ BUT for the build up Beth and her gimmick has had it deserved a more formatable opponent

Exclusive:
Next week the Bella’s will come to the ring. Eve will come out and introduce Kharma, telling Nikki that she has to defend the title against her immediately. Kharma will easily beat Nikki before destroying both Bella’s after the match, in what will be their final appearance with the WWE.

It’s been a couple of weeks, and I still can not get over how mouth watering Jake is. YUM!!! Hope he likes other muscular guys ;)
I am sill hoping the Bellas are leaving. I think a shake up in the division and fresh blood is needed right now. I’d love Kharma to return in a loser leaves WWE handicap match.

There will be no next week. Sunday will be the Bellas last sighting in the WWE… Good day sir! *Fez voice* lol. Nah seriously I loved last night. The women’s championship was defended regularly defended on raw back in the day. They could be getting back to that. And the match itself was about 5 minutes. We got about 3/4 eve sightings. And 3 Rosa sightings. Plus Naomi and Cameron.

When they announced it was a LumberJill match, I thought for sure that Kharma’s music was going to hit in the middle of the match and she was going to come down to ringside and look ever Diva in the eye and then take out both Bella Twins and we never heard from the Bellas again. Instead, we are given yet another Bella title reign. Ugh. Why do I even bother watching Divas matches anymore. I think its time to take my bathroom break during the Divas matches like everyone else does! :o(

Observation from atop the JLA (I will stop eventually, I swear):
“I think its time to take my bathroom break during the Divas matches like everyone else does!”
You know, I was expecting most people to do the same last night as well. Surprisingly, most people stayed in their seats for the Lumberjill Match. Color me shocked! The crowd “unpleasers” of the night went to A-Train’s…I mean Albert’s…I mean Lord Tensai’s match and Primo/Rosa/Epico’s non-televised entrance. Even the kids were unimpressed by them and were walking around. Ha! By the time everyone heard Santino’s theme, though, those seats filled up fast!

I don’t mind a new champ but nikki as champ just no,if the bellas are on their way out of wwe,they dont need to have both hold the title before they leave…
they could have lead to beth bs nikki at the next ppv & beth beats nikki & kharma comes down takes the bellas out & has a stare down with beth….
at 4:15 pm
i am glad beth lost. like they said we , well i would want to see beth lose the title fast to kharma. that would end the beth kharma feud quick which is what we dont want . im hoping kharma comes back as a heel or tweener whatever she was. i dont want her as a face. just come back like she did a year ago
funny she debuted a year ago and is gonna return a year later lol
at 6:19 pm
Omg Jake please present an episode shirtless… ;P
I’ huge fans of the Bella Twins, i just love seeing them work, compared to their debut, they have improved. I love them more as Heels than Faces. Especially when they do Twin Magic. If they are leaving then at least they are leaving on a good note, as champions :)

I think the reason people are annoyed by the Bella’s winning the title is mostly because people wanted them to win it just so they could see Kharma beat them.. Which annoys me too considering Beth is a great performer and her title reigns always seem to end in injury anymore.
I want Kharma to come back as much as the next person, but coming back and beating the Bella’s right away and winning the title sounds a little Gail Kim(ish) to me and once she wins the belt then whats next? Beat down every diva like Beth did for the last year? We’ve seen that already… and we’ve seen how it ended.
If the WWE is going to give the better Bella the title (idc what you say Nikki is much more entertaining), then she needs to keep it for a little while because jumping the belt around even after a long reign isn’t interesting to anyone and thats what causes people to lose interest in it. So ok.. Kharma comes back and wins the title in a month.. so we sit around and watch her beat everyone and it becomes as predictable as the next diva’s title reign. We wait a little more for Beth to return, they have their fued and boom.. whats next? I don’t get why people like to hurry good things along because that’s when they get messed up. Build-ups/fueds/etc. take TIME, not just a great character/skills, BUT TIME.

If they’re leaving at the end of the month, it’s not being hurried, it’s being practical. Pfft, negativity.
