It's all about that ass.

Honestly, I don't get it either. She's just a generic, happy go lucky babyface. She's not bad or anything but I've seen nothing special about her.

I'm not the biggest fan of her, but I also haven't been the biggest fan of Sasha Banks either. That being said, Sasha was the common link between some great women's matches last year. But then she also slapped her leg when she went for a kick and forgot to kick one time.

In NXT, the girls get to choreograph their shit more. Sasha vs. Becky and Sasha vs. Bayley were two of the more emotional matches of last year, but the women's division would need to be booked like that on the main roster, and it isn't.

Bayley is a good participant in most of the things she's involved in, and she connects well with people. You can ask why she does, but she does. What was it about a tanned walrus looking motherfucker that people liked in Hulk Hogan? What was it about a bald redneck guy in Stone Cold Steve Austin? People do like Bayley, even if she'll always pale in comparison to Becky Lynch as far as I'm concerned.

She is average on the mic. Above average in the ring, and can even have great matches with the right people.

But she knows how to emotionally connect with the audience, which is the most important attribute in the wwe.

She's got the same kind of connection that Daniel Bryan had at the end of his career; she's not your typical superstar/Diva who has dedicated their life to becoming a wrestler and she's achieving dreams every time she goes out there. What's not to like about that story?

You didn't.

You got the "making their dreams come true" part. But all three of those other women are more typical "Diva"-looking than Bayley.

Pretty much. It seems there's people who either get what she and her gimmick are all abouy or they don't. There's no middle ground.

No, you really didn't. Charlotte and Sasha were both people that everyone expected to become champions from day one. Even the announcers constantly let us know that this would be the case. They looked the part, acted the part, and pretty much were already made as superstars from day one. It's basically what you see with a guy like John Cena or Randy Orton. No matter how much they wanted it or worked for it their rise to the top will never mean as much because it was expect of them. As for Becky, well, she hasn't had her moment yet. She's basically lost everything she's been involved with since her call-up, and is still someone's bitch over on Smackdown where she should be the top babyface of the division.

Anyway to answer the OP: Bayley is great because she connects with people. She has that same intangible quality that made Daniel Bryan so great. She's not your typical superstar. She's someone that no one expects to succeed, and in fact she's someone most people expect to fail. She doesn't have the look or attitude of your typical superstar. She had nothing going for her from the beginning but somehow she's still managed to climb to the top, and she did so without compromising who she really is. It's a feelgood story that any everyday kinda guy or gal can relate to and get behind. We love Bayley because we ARE Bayley. Also it doesn't hurt that she can put on great "big matches," and her gimmick is a breath of fresh air in a world where everything always has to be so serious and any showing of a more playful and childish side in adulthood is seen as taboo.

This all day long. I like Becky and Sasha more, but at the end of the day, that connection cannot be denied and that is what it is. I think the analysis of her story is a bit much -- every girl seems to get a turn and I don't really see the doubt that she would have been next -- but the way she was presented from a jobber to a champion did create the illusion of progression which helped people bite on.

The more I think about it though, the more I worry about her main roster chances, because HER story has been told in NXT, it's a different audience on the main roster and the illusion won't be there. Her gimmick seems to be a licence to print merchandise, but I thought Tyler Breeze's gimmick was perfectly transferable too.

That's the ENTIRE point of Enzo and Cass. Enzo gets them into fights, and Cass finishes them. That's their dynamic.

One day, someone will try and get into Cass' head about being held down by Enzo. Cass will beat them up, but then Enzo will turn on Cass.
