Kharma

That came really close to my bodyguard picture

Kharma segment from tonight...



I approve. It gave me more without giving me too much, and I love that they've kept a steady emphasis on her and Kelly Kelly for three weeks in a row. That's a record for Diva angles on RAW. I like how Kharma doesn't take Kelly seriously at all, chasing her from the ring last week and thumping her tonight just for a laugh. It'll make it that much more exciting when Kelly finally freaks out and attacks her.

[Burke]

Lol @ Brie abandoning Nikki. Understandable.

I can sense Kelly becoming Divas Champion very soon. Can’t wait.

Between Kelly coming back to RAW, Kharma destroying people every week, and Michelle leaving, the diva division is so much more interesting to me right now than it has been in ages. I also like the evil Bella Twins (way better heel duo than LayCool ever where). I just wish Maryse was on RAW more often.

[Tiarnán]

Honestly, if it wasn't for the sprint backstage last week (I think it was last week), I'd say that the Bellas are rivalling Eve as far as boringness goes. I get that they don't want to use Gailina, but why is Beth sitting backstage every week as well? They're supposed to like her.

[Brandon]

I'm still trying to process it. If I were Maryse, Eve, the Bella twins, etc. I would have jumped Kharma just 'cause.

Oh, and is it just me, or is Melina's new look a little on the Katie Lea side?

[Burke]

I haven't liked Melina's attire for a while now. That used to be one of the things I liked most about her.

As for Kharma, I still think that was pretty dumb. I think she has to start actually wrestling now even if it's only squash matches.

[Tarry]

I really hope Kharma comes down during a multi-diva tag match at the SmackDown tapings... they get cockey and surround her having seen her breakdown when the Raw divas did it. However this time she lays them all out. That'd really put emphasis on her split personality.

[Burke]

That sounds good. I hope they save it till next weeks RAW though so I will actually end up watching it. SD/Superstars/NXT/Impact don't really exist to me.

[Tiarnán]

Melina looked hot as hell. I think she needs to personalize it a bit more though. She needs to keep the MNM triple cross, just 'cause I like that she and Morrison have that link to one another. I get the Katie Lea comment, but Katie's look would have been cool were it not for the ugly white ropes in her hair, so that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I'll just say though, whilst I like the whole sort of glammed up bad ass thing, I was hoping Melina would go all Aztec/Hispanic/Latin on us with this character overhaul. She's hinted at it before, and I think it'd suit her if she went all out with it.

With regards to Kharma: I like it, despite that one guy in the audience shouting 'Boring' annoying the hell out of me. I think it's inevitable that they're going to link it to bullying, although I think there's a way in which they could do that without making it seem really cheesy and gimmicky. I'm guessing being surrounded by the pretty divas brought back childhood memories or something.

That's kind of what I was hoping for too. The look you posted with her face painted would have been cool and something we haven't seen from another Diva before. That would have been great for her imo, especially if she's looking for a drastic change. Though, who knows how much say she has in the matter?

[Tiarnán]

Definitely. I have a feeling they'd be willing to let her do the Día de los Muertos facepaint because it might stray a little too far than what they're used to with regards to Divas. Even so, she could ease it in gradually. I know a lot of people hated the SummerSlam 2010 gear, but idc, I loved it. That's what I was hoping she'd go far, albeit perhaps slightly less yellow this time.

Whatever. I'm just glad we're moving past the era of the ugly 2009-onwards attires.

[Burke]

Can’t wait for next weeks segment where Kelly gives Kharma a heartfelt pep talk (ala her recent Tough Enough appearance) inspiring her to bring out her inner beauty and stop being so mean all the time. Then the vignettes the following week with Maryse taking Kharma shopping in LA to complete her diva makeover.

[Tiarnán]

Lol, that'd be awesome.

I really think they're going to go down the bullied-in-her-youth road though, hence her not being able to handle being circled by a large crowd of aggressive, pretty girls. Of course, that might make it hard to make her the bad guy - especially given the whole compaign against bullying - but Mickie James was a sympathetic psycho as well and she still worked as a heel, so who knows?

[Tarry]

Midway through last night's Eight-Diva Tag Team Match on Raw, Kharma's entrance music echoed, freezing her fellow Divas. As she slid into the ring, her eight fellow Divas lined up on the opposite side of the canvas. Kharma unexpectedly dropped to her knees and began crying.

F4WOnline.com reports that the angle was scripted to write her off television for the time being. She is expected to be sidelined for over nine months.

The reason for her removal from television has not been disclosed.
