I guess, but cameos and extras work don't usually earn a six figure income.

I'm kind of looking at it from black and white. I hear what you are saying though.

It's always a work. Even when it's real, it's a work.

I think it's silly that anyone would whinge about someone like Chavo being underused, but bury this thing with Gail because she has a vagina.

Both are talented wrestlers who feel underutilized and sick of being embarassed on national television.

As far as making people care about women's wrestling, TNA already proved that it can work. It was one of the few things they got right on a consistant basis and one of the hottest feuds in TNA history being Kong/Kim proved that. Of course, some of the boys complained about losing their spotlight to women, so that, the arrival of Hogan (and thus, talentless fucks like the Nasty Boys and that Love Sponge guy), and TNA being TNA ruined that.

Also, if the popular idea in "big leauge" wrestling is that women don't draw unless they're sex symbols, why bother hiring the Jazzes, Lunas, Phoenixes, Natties, Taminas* of the world when they're content to push K2, Eve, and the Bellas for everything? I mean, Neidhart and Snuka may have familial inclinations for jobs, but what about everyone else? Shell out the cash for Lacey Von Erich. Hire nothing but almost-porn stars. They're not letting the girls with cred ply their trade time to do so anyhow, so why bother?

I guess what I mean here is this: if "women don't draw", why bother with "hiring them so nobody else has them"? The latter countermands the former.

*Not really saying I personally find any of these women unattractive. It works for sake of argument. Using commons sense, you know why I listed them, so I don't need to get gripes from someone like BPF. I make no secret about one of the few wrestling women I'm visually averse to is Angelina Love.

From PWInsider:

Gail Kim announced today that she quit WWE on Monday. We had heard for several weeks that she had been extremely unhappy and had been very vocal about it.

It's sad but it's true. There are some talented female wrestlers out there, but overall the 'genre' (if you want to call it that) of 'womens wrestling' is useless. ESPECIALLY when it's being built about fucking barbie dolls like Kelly Kelly and the Bellas.

I would have liked to have seen where the whole Kharma thing was going, though. It seems like they panicked in terms of direction after she left and threw together a bunch of random programs with no build up...I mean, they went back to exactly what they were doing before.

You know how you can tell womens wrestling doesn't matter? A girl can be a heel one week and a face the next with absolutely no explanation whatsoever, and nobody even notices.

Women's wrestling is, by default, a waste because of how it's treated in this country. Chavo had a much better chance just by not having a vagina.

Just to be fair.

Exactly. Kharma = good TV.

Like Trish was. It's tough to get womens' wrestling over, and when it can be done, it needs people with the charisma and ability to work. Seems to me like Gail Kim doesn't realize that their current diva roster doesn't have what it takes, even if it wasn't booked completely retarded.

You just said yourself "Fuck womens' wrestling," but at least you were able to say that Kharma was interesting.

I don't know if I buy that she "quit" Monday. She probably provoked WWE to fire her when she just did whatever she wanted to during the Battle Royal, but I don't buy that she just "quit"...

...I mean, I guess it's a type of quitting, but...
