What Happened to the WWE Divas?

The WWE Divas have been a staple in the company for years, but they have been on a hiatus for a while now. What happened to them?

The Women’s Revolution

The WWE Divas were once a staple in the professional wrestling world. They were seen as objects and eye candy for the majority of their careers. In 2015, things began to change. The women of the WWE were given more opportunities and the chance to show the world that they were just as talented as the men.

The Women’s Revolution in WWE

The Women’s Revolution in WWE is a movement within WWE which aims to promote women’s wrestling within the company, and create opportunities for female wrestlers to perform on an equal playing field with their male counterparts.

The revolution began in 2015, when WWE signed a number of female wrestlers from other promotions, including Paige, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. This led to an increase in the amount of television time given to women’s wrestling, and the introduction of a new WWE Women’s Championship.

In 2016, the Women’s Revolution continued with the addition of the first-ever women’s Hell in a Cell match, and the inaugural women’s Money in the Bank match. These matches were both won by Charlotte Flair.

2017 saw even more progress made for women in WWE, with the introduction of the first-ever all-women’s Pay-Per-View event, Evolution. This event featured matches between some of WWE’s biggest female superstars, including Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss.

The Women’s Revolution has led to increased opportunities for female wrestlers in WWE, and has resulted in more entertaining and competitive matches for fans to enjoy.

In 2015, Women’s wrestling began to change. For almost 20 years, WWE Divas were objectified, sexualized, and treated as second-class citizens in the world of professional wrestling. But in 2015, that all began to change.

The Women’s Revolution began with the debut of NXT Diva Paige. Paige was different than all the other Divas that had come before her. She was a wrestler first and foremost, and she was treated as such by the WWE Universe. Paige was quickly joined by other NXT Divas like Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, and together they began to change the way women were viewed in the WWE.

In 2016, the Women’s Revolution exploded onto the main roster with the addition of NXT stars like Sasha Banks and Bayley. These women brought a new level of athleticism and excitement to WWE programming, and they quickly became fan favorites. The Women’s Revolution was further cemented with the debut of the first-ever women’s Hell in a Cell match between Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair, which was widely considered one of the best matches in WWE history.

Today, women in WWE are finally being treated as equals to their male counterparts. They are given equal time on television, equal opportunities to Main Event pay-per-view events, and are even given their own separate pay-per-view event (the most recent being Evolution in 2018). The Women’s Revolution is still ongoing, but it has already changed WWE for the better and has paved the way for a new generation of female wrestlers to take over the sports entertainment world.

The Divas Era

Female wrestlers in WWE were once referred to as Divas. The term “Diva” was coined in the 1990s and was used to describe women who exhibit a Diva-like attitude. In 2015, WWE stopped using the term “Diva” and began to refer to their female wrestlers as “Superstars.” This change was made in an effort to promote gender equality in WWE.

The Divas Era in WWE

The “Divas Era” in WWE is often considered to be a time when the women’s division was at its peak, with a variety of talented performers who were able to put on great matches and tell interesting stories. However, this era came to an end in 2016, when WWE replaced the term “Divas” with “Women’s Superstars” and began to focus on building up its female athletes as true competitors. While there are still some talented performers in WWE’s women’s division, many fans miss the Divas Era and the entertaining matches and storylines that it produced.

The Divas Era in other wrestling promotions

The Divas Era in other wrestling promotions was a period of time in the mid-2000s when women’s wrestling began to be presented in a more sexualized and objectified manner by other professional wrestling promotions. This was in contrast to the “Attitude Era” of the late 1990s and early 2000s, when women’s wrestling was presented in a more serious and athletic manner.

The term “Divas Era” is most commonly used to refer to the period of time in WWE from 2008 to 2016, when the promotion was widely criticized for its treatment of women’s wrestlers. However, the Divas Era began in other promotions as early as 2005, and its effects are still being felt today.

The Divas Era is often credited with (or blamed for) the rise of “Reality ERA” television programming, which emphasized storylines based on the personal lives of the wrestlers outside of the ring. This type of programming reached its peak during WWE’s reality show Total Divas, which aired from 2013 to 2017.

The Women’s Evolution

In 2015, WWE underwent a Women’s Evolution. This was a time where the female wrestlers were given more airtime, better storylines, and more opportunities. The Divas were no longer just eye candy, but athletes that could put on a great show. However, since then, the WWE has been on a downward spiral. The Women’s Revolution has lost its steam, and the Divas are once again nothing more than sex symbols.

The Women’s Evolution in WWE

For years, women in WWE were referred to as “Divas.” But in 2016, everything changed. A new generation of female Superstars began a revolution that disrupted the status quo, shattered glass ceilings and paved the way for future generations of WWE women.

This is the Women’s Evolution.

The Women’s Evolution started with a historic WrestleMania 32 match in which Charlotte Flair defeated Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch to become the new WWE Women’s Champion. This was followed by the introduction of a new Women’s championship at SummerSlam 2016, won by Banks.

Since then, WWE women have main evented pay-per-view events, competed in Steel Cage matches and more. In 2018, Ronda Rousey made history when she became the first woman to ever headline a WrestleMania event.

The Women’s Revolution has not only changed WWE, but has also had a profound impact on popular culture. Thanks to these groundbreaking Superstars, anything is possible for future generations of WWE women.

The Women’s Evolution in other wrestling promotions

In recent years, there has been a growing trend of more successful and popular women’s wrestling promotions, such as Shimmer Women Athletes, Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU)and Ohio Valley Wrestling’s Women’s Division. These promotions feature wrestlers of all shapes and sizes, and often have storylines and matches that are more serious and competitive than those found in WWE’s Divas division.

With the success of these other promotions, many fans have clamored for WWE to start a true women’s division, with athletes who are given the same opportunities as the men. In 2015, WWE finally began to listen to these fans, and started what has come to be known as the “Women’s Revolution.”

Since the start of the Women’s Revolution, WWE has signed several top female wrestlers from other promotions, including Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch, and Bayley. These women have helped to change the landscape of women’s wrestling in WWE, and have been featured in some of the most groundbreaking matches in WWE history.

While there is still a long way to go before WWE truly has equality between its male and female wrestlers, the Women’s Revolution has been a huge step in the right direction.
