There are rumors that Kharma might return. With The Bella Twins chasing after the Diva's Championship, that could easily pave the way for that feud between them and Kharma that was teased two years ago. I don't usually like discussing rumors, but assuming she does return, would Kharma lead to change in the diva division?
I don't think it will lead to change. Right now, the WWE is still in a dark age. Are they trying to look for another eye-candy diva to be a centerpiece? Or are they willing to start treating female wrestlers better? Looking at the current diva roster, I don't think they have enough to start running a women's division that treats women's wrestlers as the top stars. What would Kharma most likely do? She can really only dominate in about the same manner she did when she debuted. Tamina and Natalya might be worthy opponents for her, but the WWE doesn't seem too eager to push those women well even now.
Go back to the first dark age. Chyna was a top star then. It was during that time that she won the Intercontinental Championship multiple times and won the Women's Championship. It would not be too unprecedented for the WWE to consider bringing back Kharma and pushing her well now. Chyna pretty much dominated the women's division. No diva got a clean, decisive victory over her. And she left without losing the title. Kharma was pushed even more dominantly than her during her short time in the WWE. If she does return, she may dominate even more than Chyna did when she is pushed. That will have to come to an end sooner or later. And then? Periphery.
If the WWE does bring back Kharma and use her to inject some momentum into their diva division, this could be a sign that they are looking for quick, easy fixes. I almost want to say that they are getting a little bit desperate, but I wouldn't go that far, yet. Last year, AJ Lee got a huge push to develop her as a star in the periphery. The WWE could very well be looking for something new this year. That doesn't fix their problems at the core of the division, when it comes to centerpiece matters.
