Paige is not over rated at all! She has awesome headbutts, various technical moves, I think for a diva that she's pretty bad ass. And she can talk on the mic' too!
If anyone is over rated, it's AJ Lee. She USED to be good, until she became CM Punk. All she can do is cut a CM Punk promo now, and skip around the ring. And yet people wanna say she saved the division?? Please! I don't think so.

I haven't seen anything about her that I think is absolutely awesome. She's passable.

Overated? No. Overhyped? Yes. She lives up to the bill of being a good wrestler and she plays her character well but like every internet darling, it's hard for her to live up to the hype. The other problem, of course, is the women in the Divas division aren't given much to work. Her work with the NXT Divas is better than most anything we've seen of her on Raw or PPV. Ugh... and I hate how, to American audiences, "having an accent" automatically means "can't talk."...but I'm English. So that's not really why I said it. It has nothing to do with it. Does BNB have bad mic skills? Not at all. William Regal? Not at all. |

Bad timing is what I attribute to Paige's lackluster run on the main roster thus far, as well as being the reason why some view her as "overrated." Here's a legitimately talented female competitor, perhaps the biggest "total package" that the Divas division has seen in years, and she is brought in at a time where the WWE clearly favors AJ Lee and the Bella Twins. Of course she won't shine as much as she could and should. If all you have seen of Paige is her main roster work, you don't have a real grasp of how good she actually is.Well that might just be the case. I don't remember seeing that much if her in NXT. |

She's average/slightly above average in her ring work....which Im not sure if that says a lot since most divas suck in the ring. Her mic skills and "acting" skills are very weak. If I was gonna grade her on a 1-10 scale, she's be like a 5.5 maybe a 6 at best.

She's okay, but again she's nothing special. When she first debuted the IWC was praising and pandering like she was the next best thing. I on the other
didn't find anything good about her. Her character is bland.

I think it's more of the main roster trying to tweak and change something that worked so well on NXT.

Her character is bland. Because for all intents and purposes, she should have been the next best thing. In NXT, FCW and everything prior, Paige was the sh*t. That's why she was praised and hyped like crazy before debuting on the main roster. It was warranted praise, but the expectations that many, myself included, had for her just haven't been met and I don't blame her at all. If she fails, it's all on creative. The same goes for everyone who was great on NXT, but has been dire on television such as Emma, Bo Dallas and Adam Rose. |

She's good, she just needs to sell more IMO...the Summerslam match is a good example of her no-selling stuff.

I don't think she's overrated a bit, but if all people have seen of her is her main roster work, I could see why they would think she is. If WWE actually gave two  s about the main roster Divas division, you might see why she got so much hype. If she turned into the Anti-Diva when she turned on AJ instead of being given crazy btich gimmick #13242, she would've been SO much better off. Every failing of the Divas division could be directly attributed to creative. They'd rather devote 15 minutes to Nikki screaming "Iwish you died in the WOMB" at Brie than to use those same 15 minutes for a competent Divas match. |

To the people saying that Divas need 15 minute long matches to be relevant, that would absolutely kill the whole division. Most of the audience doesnt care about the Divas with 2 minute matches what makes you think they will with 15 minute matches?

Most of the audience doesnt care about the Divas with 2 minute matches what makes you think they will with 15 minute matches? You just answered your own question. The reason people don't care, is because they aren't given a reason to care. If WWE doesn't give a crap about the Divas, why should we? People cared about Trish and Lita; so much so that they got to main event RAW. Why do people care about them and not the current Divas? Could have something to do with them being treated like crazy bimbos, and being given crappy two minute matches every week. If they gave Dean Ambrose two minute matches, garbage storylines, and no promo time every week, would you care about him? Or any of the other superstars? |

Yes. She is overrated like the other internet darling diva AJ. Neither of them can put on a match like Natalya vs. Charlotte but at least Paige is young so she can improve if she really tries. With AJ, she's been a pretty face since the start but her heel gimmick was crazy annoying and she's never had any major memorable matches, which is why most of the divas division will never be able to meet the level of girls like Lita and Trish Stratus. Besides Natalya, the only other main roster Diva that has legitimately impressed me this year would be Nikki Bella as her promos are more tolerable than both Paige and AJ's, and she's really improving in the ring unlike any other Diva on the main roster.
