[@aliciafoxxxy7943]

AJ mentioned that Vince asked her to write that pipebomb shell promo, which was incredibly rare since Vince hardly ever gives anyone full creative control on the mic. Nobody even knew she had a segment planned lol she shared that she had to let the production team know just minutes before going live that she was about to cut a promo LMAO AJ truly nailed it, she always stayed true to herself and her beliefs.

[@3frankf]

A controversial moment that wasn’t mentioned that should’ve been imo is the 2009 Miss WrestleMania Battle Royal. That match was the defining low point of the “Divas Era”. When I think of “Divas Era”, I think of THAT match. 1. The women get no true storyline and are thrown together in a meaningless match (i.e. battle royal/lumberjill match). 2. None of the women get a proper entrance and instead come out to Kid Rock. 3. Many women get eliminated so early in the match you can’t tell who was who. 4. Santino Marella in drag ended up winning the battle royal. I was so furious watching and didn’t want to watch the rest of the show. A complete waste of time and a prime example of how the WWE at the time thought of the women, as complete jokes. I’m glad we’ve moved past that in the current era.

[@WikkitTheKing]

Youre right .

[@mykoniichistorychannel]

You told no lies.

[@xgray2012]

Let's never speak of that moment ever again, shall we?! That and Santino Murrello in drag took up a numbered spot at the Women's Royal Rumble match in 2020.

Completely Agree. I was actually there live and that was my first EVER wrestling event I attended. It was bullshit and I haven't been to a wrestling show since.

[@donjai9366]

​@@xgray2012 I actually enjoyed Santino in the Royal Rumble. I find it kind of odd that when a man enters the Women's Rumble he gets shitted on but when countless women enter the men's Rumble she gets praised. I hated watching Nia, Beth,and Kharma in the men's Rumble. I think that the men should wrestle men & women wrestle women.

[@BigLouJo_XVI]

Ok great, I’m so glad to hear it. Only because I’m reeeeeeaaaally sure that many of the other ungrateful, unintelligent, completely entitled hypocrites out there in our world who call themselves “WWE fans” but think they know all about Vince McMahon and despise him for absolutely no reason after LITERALLY everything that he did to keep them entertained for the last 40+ years, never liked these storylines.

I struggle with Sasha and Naomi leaving as being controversial. Controversial has such a negative connotation but what they did was for the best for them, and honestly made a statement that needed to be made. I would say heroic is a better word

[@JuanitoEsBonito]

I think "controversial" can have both positive and negative meanings. If you think about it some of the most revolutionary people in history were considered "controversial" in their time. Because to move forward sometimes we have to face negative realities and get uncomfortable.

[@AllYellowJoshua]

The Piggie James storyline definitely could not happen today. People would not have it. To me though it made me cheer Mickie James so much when she ended Michelle and Layla during the Royal Rumble 2010! Even though Michelle won the title back, Mickie still won the feud cause in the Royal Rumble 2022 she eliminated Michelle as the Impact Knockouts Champion! To think both Royal Rumble 2010 and 2022 Mickie James came out on top of Michelle and as Champion! YES💛☀💫YES💛☀💫YES💛☀💫

[@locker47]

It can't happen because somehow viewers and critics (and even some wrestlers) treat professional wrestling to a different standard. You wouldn't see the same criticism to books and movies like Mean Girls or other feminist content about bullying and stereotyping women. Most of them are way worse than Piggie James. All of it is just storytelling, some maybe more introspective than others, and actresses probably also feel uncomfortable taking part in telling those stories. But somehow wrestling writers and bookers are "abusive" or "tone-deaf" when trying the same storylines.

[@tamzidmohsinkhan3333]

AJ Lee needs to return to Royal Rumble Now or Never

A-Are you done, hater?

[@bundun966]

To answer your question about “who was in the right” regarding the pipe bomb. No one was right or wrong. AJ was asked to cut a heel promo and a large portion of fans agreed with her. The cast was upset with the content which is also valid since she was publicly voicing long term frustrations fans discussed. Like it can’t feel good. Long term, I personally think it drew a lot of attention to the possibilities women’s wrestling could have in WWE.

[@vanityparadiseofficial]

Finally someone smart on here. Thank you! Agree!

[@j-dub5163]

AJ was absolutely on the money with her pipe bombshell. Total Divas was good for its time, but I personally lost interest after a while. And even before then, it just came off as "extra" to me, to which AJ debunked in her own way very effectively.

[@Blissss_]

For me, in the AJ pipebomb, when the Bella's are screaming "Say it to our face" I think they're talking about more like "Say it out of the character" or "Go back there and tell us in front, face to face" mostly cause AJ was written that segment and they didn't expected to be so, savage. Idk, it's kinda like the thing I got it.

[@brunoamamaria]

[@t3d459]

I'm convinced that Sasha and Naomi's walkout had something to do with either racism or sexism (they were probably called some slurs) because 2 women who had been in that company for 10+ years do not walk out over a "creative dispute"

[@blitzboy_6558]

Cameron was done so dirty I can’t believe they didn’t even try to get her back after Ronda won

[@MusicChanneI1738]

Here’s what I know. Maryse, Kelly, and Maria exposed the Bellas for allegedly stopping them from coming back to the WWE. Maryse made her return in 2016 to the company as well as joining Total Divas, and that’s what led to the big confrontation they had on the show. As far as Michelle and Beth, it’s been rumored that Michelle got big headed after entering a relationship with Undertaker, so Beth felt like she needed to be humbled.

[@kennymessias1928]

100% team AJ. She wanted a serious women's division. And although yes Total Divas was iconic and brung in a lot of female & gay viewers but instead of wwe giving women time on tv they gave a reality show. And most of them were hired for their looks instead of their wrestling ability. (Not to say Naomi, Cameron and the Bellas aren't talented wrestlers but they were hired for their looks and later became something more) im not a fan of the divas era besides from some moments like The AJ Kaitlyn Feud, NXT divas era, AJ Paige Storyline.

[@donjai9366]

This is 💯 percent true because the Bella Twins actually admitted that WWE specifically Johnny Ace hired them because they were twins & Eva was hired because she auditioned for Total Divas not because she could wrestle.

[@MusicChanneI1738]

The thing is, her delivery was wrong and that pipebomb is a prime example of internalized misogyny.

[@kennymessias1928]

⁠@@kennymessias1928trying to slxt shame people while simultaneously getting popular off the cot tails of the most popular men in her era as well as dating high profile men before and after her debut is hypocritical in itself.. it’s easy to say these girls were only hired for their looks when wwe is only really investing in one person while leaving the others high and dry with lack luster storylines or none at all.

[@mo6live]

Piggie James storyline was mainly praised because they were giving the girls a lot of tv time especially that segment was gold

[@RedemptionArcDomino]

I just want to point out that , you got one thing wrong on this list. Mickie James didn't win the feud... She actually lost the title less than a month later (23 days) back to Michelle and never got it back. There are a lot of moments that are kind of crazy when you think about it like this. Like Becky eventually losing the smackdown title to Charlotte after fighting over it for a year before moving on or Alexa Bliss ultimately winning the feud against Nia Jax after the "feel good" moment of WM. We remember the feel-good moments but not what actually happened at the end of the feuds 😅

[@aaronsass9265]

I feel like the Piggy James storyline was too far only because it went on for too long, a combination of the BAS campaign, AND at this same time, we were suppose to cheer people for fat-shaming Vickie.

I love when you said, 'how do you process the death of someone who helped you process life?". Losing someone who knows everything about you is so hard but it is also so weird because it was a professional relationship. She helped me from my darkest moments and I'm so devastated and lost without her. I know I'm lucky to have ever met her and what she did in my life and the lessons she taught.

Another honorable mention should be when Debra was Awarded the Women’s Championship from Sable even though Sable had already won the evening gown match. It was so cringe and awkward and Sable wore sunglasses the entire time and you could tell she was visibly mad. And she legit tried to take Debra’s clothing off.

[@EX1515]

Oh yeah, I remember that. It was another Vince getting a title off a talent fiasco. I was surprised that Debra won the title. Back then they were letting any girl or man win the women’s title. Besides Debra, including Miss Kitty/The Kat and Harvey Wippleman. I like Debra but she was not champion material. At least she only held the title for one month before dropping it to Ivory.

[@Luminaire86]

@@EX1515 Debra was the it girl at the time, and I thought it was fine she had the title at the time even though she wasn’t a wrestler. She still worked hard as a manager and was very over at the time. And she only had it for a month and lost it to a wrestler which is honestly legitimate. The only downside was that Ivory/Moolah fued was 💩. Miss Kitty being champion was garbage.

[@ddes9447]

The Becky/Bianca 26 seconds was brilliantly booked, and Bianca is absolutely one of my favourite wrestlers of all time (even then). The outrage was exactly what they were going for. If Becky had won after a 15/20 minute match (even if she still cheated at the end), it would have seriously lessened the "robbed" sympathy for Bianca. It was a designed heel turn at that moment and instantly propelled Bianca in the road to being a top babyface in the company. "Let it play out" has often been used only to thej disappoint, or to deflect criticism. But this really was a "let it play out" even if people had no patience for it at the start. A story designed to strap the rocket to Bianca, right from the monent Becky walked out on stage at Summerslam.

[@KTF0]

Yeah, it had a great payoff. Also I believe HHH was named COO in the middle of the storyline. So that definitely helped Bianca get propelled.

[@blitzboy_6558]

Absolutely it was. I remember bring FURIOUS when Becky won but looking back, if Becky had won in a 15/20 match, it would have made Bianca look weak since Becky hadn’t been in action for 18 months up until that point. Thus it made sense for Becky to play dirty and beat Bianca in 26 seconds to get Bianca SO OVER and give her her redeeming moment at WrestleMania

[@joshuawainaina8103]

As much as I hated it at least we got a great feud out of it between Bianca and Becky

I agree w/ the pipe bomb being great. I don't think that the cast of Total Divas will be put down.

[@mykoniichistorychannel]

I honestly feel like the Gail thing wasn’t nearly as big as a lot of other controversial moments.

[@Karzeon]

Yeah, that should not be over Original Screwjob. Gail was just a subtle walkout that only Diva fans noticed as we decried how bad the division already had it. O.S. should be at least as high as Madusa Trashcan because both severely affected how the women's division went. Historians would actually write these down. But the shock factor is all the way back in the 80s, the "you had to be there" energy is lone gone. O.S. was in Moolah's Dark Side of the Ring episode - aka nothing but controversy.

Mickie was definitely serving bodyyy & still is!!

[@adryjustod22]

I hoped you included Lana and Liv Love segment haha

[@stoometzphoto]

How recyclable is that single use plastic from Factor? Or all that single use foil?

[@rockyspears]

It's been over 10 years, but I'll never forget Aj reading the totsl divas cast for filth.

[@ChanceWeatherly]

PLEASE tell me where I can get that neon Stratusfaction Guaranteed sign 😭

That one segment with Charlotte and Paige bringing his dead brother in the promo.

[@Peacefully-Pixel]

WE LOVE YOU DS❤❤❤❤ so excited for WWFA (women’s wrestling fan awards)

[@Jei708]

Bianca did cry afterwards too

[@shiron_celesta]

Charllote was right ❤❤❤

[@BabyMaharaja0]

What about Sable sueing the WWE? and then returning

[@killugonzolfreecss5355]

You know what, people, the one with Becky and Bianca worked as intended. Becky was returning as a heel while Bianca was the biggest face of the Women's Division at the time. Not only was Becky able to get heat out of it, but it strengthened the support behind Bianca. So, the 26-second Summerslam match was a smart move

[@cruzaristad]

I agree with your number 2 but your number 1 is wrong. The AJ bombshell was scripted but Shasha and Naomi walking out was real. The rest of the list is spot on. Love your videos

[@RingTheBelle]

🤷 look at the comment section people are STILL fighting over who was in the right for the Pipebombshell promo. I think women’s wrestling fans overwhelmingly support Sasha ans Naomi for the walkout especially by now.

[@sakuraitonen5886]

Becky's return and her beating Bianca in just 26 second was epic. 💪🏻

[@kholoud3018]

The continous disrespect to Mickie James was awful and for her to return full time and still never gave her a proper booking was distasteful and of course the trash bag incident. They better gave a hell of run when she decide to come back and be for the title.🤍

[@shayjeraya8899]

Surprised Kane forcing himself on lite and then falling on here causing her to miscarry on here 😳

[@cmbxnetwork]

Team AJ!!! Let’s be real especially now looking at how the Bella twins are they were just seeking fame

[@waleedjavaid]

Mad respect for Gail Kim ❤

[@viksenju3245]

Love the new video DS idea and James

[@Conorcruiz]

Love these types of videos!
