WWE logic: we've got one of our most talented workers in the ring along with a woman we pull out of the closet every 4 months or so. Who do we put over?
LOL at your X-Pac send-up, I knew there was a reason why he sucked. He should have tried to play that "X-Pac Sucks" thing to his advantage. I remember when he and The Reformed DX of 1999 played heel, I used to hate how he'd come in and break up stuff with his kicks, but in the back of my mind I was like "You know, even though he pisses me off, he's kind of cool in the ring." Then X-Pac did the same thing for the next 3 years and it started to really suck.

as for Jacqueline, from Day 1 they have had to work extra hard to get her over. I might argue that even the low-heat-garnering Jazz is over in her "gimmick" more than Jacqueline was in any of hers. She's kinda like Hardcore Holly, Billy Gunn as a solo wrestler and other wrestlers of the ilk. No matter what you do, they'll peak at a point and can't move past it.
