Your most "Against The Grain" opinion on wrestling

Problem is, you're going to be waiting for a looooooong time. She's the drizzling shits, cringe inducing botches that could hurt who she's working (without the "mood lighting" excuse that the original Sin Cara had), and is shitty at selling from either overselling more than DZ to no-selling moves in the same match. And she's only gotten marginally better even after all the time and care they supposedly put into her.

If she were a man, I'd wager most of her supporters would have called for her to be future endeavored ages ago. If her only "IT" factor is tits and being an unlikable bitch on a reality show, there is a long line of potential women who could and likely should come in and take her place.

Or at the very least, cut their losses and make her a manager. Being an in-ring performer shouldn't be in the cards for her.

On Topic:

... I have similar feelings for everyone's favorite Irish girl.

Not that she's awful at wrestling related activity (don't just mean "workrate", folks) as "all red everything"; far from it. She's decent in the ring, but just insanely overrated/average. Hype music and a midriff. Matches are meh. Promos are meh. Yes, she's pretty. Yeah, you want to eat off her abs... but, really, is that all she's got? She's generic cereal in a fairly eye-pleasing box. She would have KILLED in the 90's, or any of those times where there was essentially no Women's/Diva's division outside of the champion. But as is in the current wave of "girls who can go" direction things are headed in, she's pretty much middle-of-the-road.
