Tonight on Raw 20th anniversary episode, Eve and Kaitlyn duke it out for the Divas Championship, but who comes out on top? The Diva Dirt team weigh in…
Cryssi: Well this one is tricky. Stars either get humiliated in their home town or they have a career defining moment, and I’m not sure what route they’re going to go with Kaitlyn. I’m also not sure if I’m ready to see Eve’s title reign end just yet. I feel like the latter is just beginning to sink her teeth into this beautiful role she’s been given and that Kaitlyn is one key win away from breaking out. It’s such a fifty/fifty for me. My gut tells me that both women have an equal chance at winning tonight so when it comes to picking one or the other I’m not sure what to do. Does the WWE care enough to let Kaitlyn have a moment? I’m not sure. I think I’m going to stick with Eve Torres winning this one going into WrestleMania season, but I’m not going to be upset if I’m wrong.
Erin: The rumors about Eve leaving caught me totally off guard, but if they’re true, I absolutely see her passing the torch/title to Kaitlyn tonight. In my mind I was picturing a Kaitlyn/AJ feud leading up to WrestleMania anyways, so it would make sense for Kaitlyn to become Divas Champion at this point, even if Eve is sticking around. Kaitlyn for the win.
Jack: As noted in my Raw Redux last week, Kaitlyn has this one in the bag for me. Whilst no stipulation has been announced as of the time of writing, I would like to see one, even if it is a lumberjill match, as that will still tie in with Eve being DQ’d and counted out in recent weeks. Also, I’m gunning for Kaitlyn even more after seeing her new promo graphic that was used to promote this match. Wowzers!
Katelyn: I very much enjoy Eve’s heel character and I think she’s the perfect representative for the Divas division. She has been going to absolutely any lengths to keep her title and she could very well try the same again at the 20th Anniversary. If they ended up slapping a stipulation on this match (no count-outs, no disqualifications or something along those lines) she’d have nowhere to run or hide. This time though, I think Kaitlyn (awesome name, by the way) will have her number and go on to claim her first Divas Championship. The fact that it’s in her hometown will only make her moment that much sweeter.
Melanie: After all the teasing, it seems like tonight is Kaitlyn’s night and where better than her hometown? Personally, I’d rather see Eve retain here, but there is more for Kaitlyn to do as champion at this point with heels like AJ Lee and Tamina Snuka. Kaitlyn wins.
Who do you think will win? Tell us in the comments!

I don’t know. I feel like WWE is going to give us Eve vs Kaitlyn vs AJ Lee at Wrestlemania so I’m thinking Eve retains due to AJ interfering. AJ vs Eve at the next PPV but Kaitlyn interferes there & that leads to Wrestlemania in New Jersey where AJ walks away WWE Divas Champ.
That’s smart writing, but this is WWE so who knows what they have planned.

Kaitlyn’s gonna win, and the bout will have a stipulation that will bar Eve from escaping, that or she escapes and Layla comes out to throw her back in.

Going to go with Kaitlyn. Eve’s rumored departure aside, it’s time for a title switch.

Kaitlyn

Either or, it really dosent matter cuz it’s AJ’s at Wrestlemania..
at
Kaitlyn but I really don’t want her to

I think Kaitlyn will win but Eve wouldn’t pass up a WM check so I think that at WM it’ll be Kaitlyn vs Eve vs AJ with Hopefully Eve winning to make even more history & having her go out in a good way. Then have a single AJ vs Kaitlyn feud.

Sounds like a good plan to me

kaitlyn will win if Eve really is leaving.

I think Kaitlyn will win, but i would rather have her loose because I think AJ will win the title at Wrestlemania and it would sort of be a wasted title run for Kaitlyn.
at
i don’t even want to watch this seeing as this might be the last time i see my favorite diva in action
at
I would love for the stipulation be a No Disqualification match with Kaitlyn almost winning until AJ comes down to the ring planting Kaitlyn with the Slice Bread letting Eve get the win.
Eve doesn’t really trust AJ having her question AJ’s mltives. Kaitlyn being pissed because she was screwed. And there is your storyline.

You really seem to want them to kill a face’s momentum. Kaitlyn getting screwed over yet again is tiring.

If Evd is leaving, I say Kaitlyn wins. Eve gets on the mic and rips off Huston and the Divas and then quits. Then, Kharma comes out and destroys Eve for firing the Bellas vefore she could get her hands on them.

I think Kaitlyn will win and a diva will either return or debut attacking her
at
i want aj to interfere in this match (to start off a kaitlyn vs aj at wm fued) but with kaitlyn still taking the belt off eve after reversing aj’s sliced bread into a gutbuster than reverse ddt’ing eve for the win
at
Kaitlyn will obviously win. They have been building it up so that Eve is cared of KAitlyn and can’t beat her without running away or DQing herself so with some sort of stipulation to keep Eve from doing them same thing, Kaitlyn will finally beat her for the title. Also, they have been quietly pushing Tamina. She has beaten Alicia and Layla recently in dominating fashion. This looks like they are grooming Tamina for a feud with Kaitlyn by putting her over others especially Layal who was the Divas Champion before Eve and has been in the title picture constantly until recently

anyone know where i can stream RAW? And Im going for Kaitlyn, but better if it is Eve imo.

Kaitlyn will win tonight . If she don’t next contender please ! Because I don’t wanna see no more kaitlyn and eve matches
at
even I didn’t think she deserve but… Kaitlyn will win. I read some news about Eve depature tonight… (Hope it’s not real /sob)
at
Well since a report said that Eve is finishing up tonight then I’m guessing Kaitlyn will win which I’m not too mad at. It’s her hometown so it will be epic haha!
I’m excited for the rumored AJ vs. Kaitlyn at WM program though. The fans know their history and that they’re bffs and the girls started out on tv at the same time. They also have chemistry and they’re probably the biggest faces of the divas division now that Eve/Kelly/Beth left. I know people hate it when people compare things, but it has a feeling of Trish/Lita to it.
