Tonight at Elimination Chamber, Kaitlyn will defend the Divas Title against Tamina. Will the self-proclaimed “not your average Diva” become the Diva tonight? The Diva Dirt team weighs in:
Bobby: This is by far the greatest and most built up feud we’ve seen since Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus, which makes predicting it so hard because of all the effort put in by the WWE to make this feel like such a huge showcase. Okay, obviously I’m joking. This feud has either been built up okay or horrible depending on how you view it. They actually did get a segment to give reasons why the match is happening… but it was on a mobile phone app so it’s kind of like the question “If a tree falls and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” Anyways, I think Tamina is the best choice to go with for Kaitlyn’s first defense from the options available because AJ is with Dolph and of the three remaining contenders (Tamina, Aksana, Rosa), she’s the strongest in ring for me. I don’t see the current champ losing though because her reign just got started, so I’ll go with Kaitlyn to win. It worries me where we go from here unless they call someone up, turn someone, or have a face vs face feud… but please do something! I’m not about to watch Kaitlyn’s next feud be with Maria Menounos.
Cryssi: Well, I think it would be awful to put the title on Tamina. I think this match is probably going to be a mess. Thus far, Kaitlyn’s title reign has been very dull. And I find myself wondering why I’m even looking forward to this match. The last time I saw them in the ring together, it was that terrible Las Vegas Showgirl match and they had zero chemistry there. I’m hoping with no crappy stipulation or other Divas around, this match might work out a little better. My positivity is very little, but it’s there. We’ll see, I guess? Either way, Kaitlyn wins this tonight and moves on to better things.
Erin: There seems to be some effort being put towards building up Tamina, and while normally I would see a title win in the near future for someone who’s getting a character refurbishment, this feels different. Maybe this focus on Tamina being “not average” is them just trying to rebuild the division with a strong heel. Unfortunately for her, I can see her fulfilling that “Molly Holly/Jillian Hall/late-Victoria” role as a jobber heel when the division gets filled out a bit more. With that in mind, I’m going with Kaitlyn to win tonight.
Jack: Kaitlyn is only just getting started in her Championship reign and there are really no other faces except Layla who could challenge Tamina, and with Tamina beating Layla twice over the last few months, there’s no way she is winning tonight. That reason plus the fact that everyone is desperate for Kaitlyn vs AJ at Mania and we are all hopeful that WWE will finally give us a singles match at Mania. Added Trish Stratus as ref would be amazing as well! Anyway, Kaitlyn retains.
Katelyn: Kaitlyn. I don’t see her dropping the title so soon after her title win.
Melanie: Is this Kaitlyn’s first title defense? Either way, it’s far too soon for her to lose the championship and as much as I think Tamina is looking better than ever – style and hair-wise, as well as ring-wise – I fully expect Kaitlyn to retain tonight. That said, given that her reign has gotten off to a lacklustre start and the Divas haven’t been seen on Raw in weeks, I can’t say I’m loving the direction of the division right now. Let’s hope these two are given the time to show that the division can live on following the triple whammy of big departures last year.
Steven: Awwwwww! Our little Kaitlyn has her very first big title defense tonight! They grow up so fast, don’t they? Seriously though, I’d be shocked if Kaitlyn dropped the title to Tamina tonight at Elimination Chamber. That being said, I don’t think that it will be an easy match for her. I expect Kaitlyn to beat Tamina just barely, continue feuding with her for the next couple of PPVs, before dropping it to Tamina. WWE seems to be high on Tamina and I see her as champion soon, but for tonight I’m picking Kaitlyn to win.
It looks like it’s unanimous! Do you agree with our predictions, or are we dead wrong? Let us know in the comments!

Since you all vote for Kaitlyn.
My prediction is AJ makes herself present she has to or tomorrow night.
Or if Tamina were to win Vickie helps her or AJ

i agree with all the above Kaitlyn just got the belt and its to soon to take it from her. i heard aj lee say one time her dream was a match at wrestlemania so i am predicting it will be Kaitlyn verses AJ LEE at wrestlemania 29 and aj getting the belt
at
would be cool if Kaitlyn spears Tamina while she does the super fly Splash.
Like Tamina jump and Kailtyn jumps at her and spear.
Or wished this happen AJ brings a table and either Kaitlyn pears Tamina through a table or Kaitlyn is laying on a table and Tamina does the super fly splash

that would be sick! I would mark out loud

Kaitlyn. I just don’t see them taking the title off of her yet. Which is unfortunate because I don’t think she’s champion material. However, I don’t think Tamina is ready for it just yet either….
at
i think there is no chance in hell that Tamina is gonna win, Kaitlyn just got the belt so she wont be losing it that quick
me personally i would like to see Tamina Vs Aj Lee at Wrestlemanie, to bad they didnt continue there feud on with
at
I for sure think Kaitlyn will win, but I’d like to see WWE surprise us all with a different outcome. Maybe Vickie restarting the match or something, I don’t know.

The more important question is, will Tamina finally make a statement?! I’m waiting with baited breath!
Honestly, though, Tamina doesn’t have a chance. Her only real purpose is to give Kaitlyn a somewhat credible opponent for her first title defense. Eve left before the rematch that would put Kaitlyn over as the new champ, so they’ve just shuffled Tamina right on in.
Hopefully, something more interesting will happen between now and WM. Maybe AJ will decide to get back in the ring and go for the belt, or maybe Trish will do something (just please, God, no Maria Menunous or Snookie).
The division needs new blood, but I think bringing someone new in this close to the biggest PPV would be a huge mistake unless WWE was really committed to putting a lot of time and energy into building them up well. And, let’s be really, they wouldn’t do that, so any new Diva would just get lost in the shuffle.

Hopefully these 2 can put on a good show like they have been at the house shows. I wanna see Kaitlyn win with the Gutbuster & have Tamina roll out of the ring. Then have AJ attack Kaitlyn & hit her with SB #2 (Doesnt matter which position) & have Tamina lay her out afterwards. Setting up a 3 way at WM!

i will cry if tamina wins. not that i dislike her, i just dont want kaitlyn being a fill in champion!

@Cryssi They have decent chemistry, it’sot like Kaitlyn/Eve or Alicia/Natalya but its decent. That lumberjill match was a clusterfuck I have to agree though.
at
Kaitlyn will win! I hope AJ makes an appearance make it a triple threat at wrestlemania! I can only dream they will probaly have a celebrity in a divas match =? i hope not it’s been to long the women deserve the time at WM
at
Kaitlyn wins, i dont see Tamina as new champion, she is so bland
at
AJ helps Kaitlyn win and attacks her after the match.
at
Hopefully AJ gets into this SOMEHOW, so we can move on to bigger and better things aka AJ winning the title at WM. Sorry Tamina, maybe next year, okay?
