As a general note, I respect all of them because it must be hard to try and build yourself and your character up in a male dominated world where you keep being pushed back down. I don't know how they do it or put up with it, I would've just given up a long time ago.

Alicia Fox - It's sad that her first run as champion is one of the lesser known facts, but she's still managed to reinvent herself through the years, as well as keep her arsenal fresh. Of the models turned wrestlers, I'd say she's one of the best and really one of the best female wrestlers we have on the roster.

The Bella Twins - They did what I thought was impossible, and became two separate entities. People now know the difference between Nikki and Brie. And not just because Nikki's got a bigger chest. They're complete opposites and they show it through their style, dictation, mannerisms, and most importantly their ring work. Despite the momentum crash after the assistant storyline, this year was their year. They proved that the Bella Twins weren't just a unit, but again two separate women: Brie Bella and Nikki Bella. Most importantly, despite being associated with two top Superstars, they refuse to let that define them. Time and time again, they've proven that you can be beautiful regardless of what your body type is, hardworking, and a kick ass competitor. So it seems that 'Brie Mode' and being 'Fearless' are fitting taglines for them.

Layla - If anyone's earned the right to call themselves a veteran Diva, it's definitely Layla. She's proven she can play a face or heel at the drop of a hat. But also I think she's one of the women who've grown to love the business and it shows. I never thought she was particularly impressive, but I feel like after her leg injury she stepped her game up and showed she didn't need to ride Michelle McCools' coattails to stay relevant. I'm just hoping she'll know when it's time to say goodbye.

Naomi - She is without a doubt the best athlete on the roster, man or woman. When she made her debut on NXT she'd constantly proven that this was something she was passionate about and she's showed us just that. I feel like she's got such an awesome fighting spirit and when WWE does what they always do and pull a diva storyline out from nowhere, she doesn't complain about it, but rather does her best to work with whatever is given to her.

Natalya - Aside from her background, I think she's done a great job of staying relevant, all while keeping her sense of self. Obviously she doesn't fit the conventional Diva mold and I like that she doesn't try to fit in either, but rather she redefines Diva for herself. She's a strong, emotional, smart, beautiful woman who isn't afraid to be who she is, no matter what anyone thinks.

Paige - Again, background ignored, I think little by little she's starting to embrace the Diva aspect and will come to see that you can have best of the both worlds of looking good and looking good in the ring. But aside from that, her moveset is impressive and I think she's far superior to AJ in every way possible. And while I feel like there's really no such thing as an 'anti diva' (but more so defining what diva means to you), I do love her style outside of the ring, and really wish she'd show it more so when in segments or just accompanying someone to the ring. I feel like when we see her in Total Divas, it'll be easier to warm up to her. None of that feels like a reason to respect her tho lol, but I think that she's worked hard to get to where she's at and unlike AJ, she didn't talk about it every five fucking seconds. So thank you girl.

Summer Rae - Summer I feel like is someone whose come a long way in such a short time. I think wrestling is something that she picked up easily and she stuck with it. She's also one of the few Divas who manages to still play a character during a match or mid move. It makes her matches that much more entertaining. I'm hoping she'll get an opportunity to shine onto the coming year because she's someone I would love to see at the top.

I'll get to the NXT girls in a bit lol

Bellas. They get a lot of hate from wrestling fans but they take it all in stride and just focus on improving as wrestlers. Very respectable.
