I click on a link that says "Emma Released From WWE" and the page says, "WWE reinstates Emma" when it opens (who know what it will say in 10 minutes?). Her head must be spinning!: www.wwe.com/inside/emma-released-from-wwe-26450666Stay strong, Emma! You rock!

I can't believe no one has posted anything about our girl Paige turning heel on RAW last night, going full Saraya on AJ Lee. It was a thing of beauty, and got a Bryan winning at Wrestlemania level pop out of me, cause I've been waiting for it since she debuted.

I liked how the fans got into it. I popped for Paige looking devilish and licking her lips before going in to headbutt AJ. Hopefully this is what finally gets Paige fully over with the fans.

I literally could not stop grinning after she yelled "COME ON, AJ!" I could actually hear Saraya's voice coming out of her.

It was pure bloody magic. And it didn't hurt that Paige powered out of the Sharpshooter before either. With AJ coming back face and this turn, things are looking really good for the division. They can squander it easily, and the Funkadactyls split doesn't do much for either of those girls. That said it looks like the division might be really powering out of the doldrums of Mania 29. Brie is definitely coming back soon, and even Summer Rae has been paired with an experienced and talented partner. There are all the pieces for a truly great women's division, the question is whether they will actually put the pieces together.

I do hope that this is not another false dawn and that things there continue to improve.

I loved how even though it was a "heel" turn, Paige was getting bigger cheers than she was as a babyface. I just hope the commentators don't instantly flip-flop and say how much of an evil person Paige is when, in my opinion, AJ has deserved that kicking coming for a long time. Hopefully the reactions for her get more positive because, this is a personal thing, Paige would be a great Steve Austin style tweener with no set alignment to the faces or the heels but did what they wanted and defied anyone who got in their way.

Hopefully this means that they have some clear direction of where they want to go with her character now. I haven't been able to figure it out from one match to the next since she came on RAW.

Reading some comments on Paige's twitter and Instagram and it's amazing to me how many people still can't construct simple sentences. I'd love to see Saraya get some just to see her tear the people doing the insulting to shreds.
How wrestlers keep calm with those kind of people taking jabs at you I'll never know.

I don't know, I often find that sometimes it's just a mistake or a result of restricted space to write with, and I'm sure I get only a teeny fraction of the poorly constructed messages she gets. I don't find it worth my time to engage with the few messages like that I get, and I imagine you really need a thick skin to deal with the masses of poor spelling and grammar. It might help her get heat by calling people on the internet illiterate, but that's not a gimmick that's going anywhere fast. As much as I do like AJ, I can't wait to watch Paige get nuclear heat by cutting promos on her about how Paige is a real wrestler who's worked for everything she's got and has it in her blood, and AJ only got on through NXT when it was still a reality show, that AJ ran like a coward after Paige beat her, people only like AJ because she has a pandering gimmick and who her man is, and that's just off the top of my head.

Pandering Gimmick - it would be a great name for a band!

I've got an even better one "Hypocritical Faces"
Which is also my views on the Raw commentary team who will love a face one minute but if that face turns heel then they hate them, there's nothing more I hate in wrestling than Fairweather Commentators and Fairweather fans.

"Fairweather" isn't really a thing in wrestling. It's structured so that sometimes you're supposed to like someone, sometimes you aren't.

"Fairweather" isn't really a thing in wrestling. It's structured so that sometimes you're supposed to like someone, sometimes you aren't. I guess but looking at it from a point of view of it being legitimate, which it's presented as, it seems odd how one week they'll support a face and then with a heel turn the face will instantly hate the guy. It sort of reminds me of Melissa, she was the most over babyface in Shimmer for the longest time and, no offence to anyone here, the fans turned on her mighty quickly, even if it was totally justified.
