Is Poor Kelly Kelly Being Bullied By Mean Old Kharma?

A few weeks ago, I said to keep your eye on Kelly Kelly. That was right after Kelly made her return to Raw and Kharma made her first appearance on that brand. Let me go back a little further. A few weeks before that, when Brie Bella was booked to win the title, I made the observation that the WWE diva division was at the level it was back in 1999/2000. Now let me pull this all into the same frame.

A few weeks after Brie, a non-centerpiece eye-candy diva, won the title, Kelly Kelly is drafted to Raw. Have you seen the focus Kelly Kelly has gotten since then? The WWE is developing her to be the centerpiece. In other words, they are developing her to follow in the steps of Sable, Trish Stratus, Candice Michelle, Maryse, and Michelle McCool. How do you want to call it? Since the WWE is developing this woman to be centerpiece, does that mean Kelly is automatically the centerpiece now? You can say that. Speaking for myself, I am not ready to call her a centerpiece until they officially do put the butterfly title on her. In the end, it did not take the WWE long to put a woman they can build to be centerpiece on Raw after I said the division was going the wrong way from what they would have liked. And I need not mention McCool's departure. Overpushing a centerpiece that cannot get monster over to match is just painful and does not do the division any favors.

Let me bring in the two other women in this current mess. You have Kharma and Brie. You can count Nikki in with Brie, but they are even more interchangeable and united than LayCool. Kelly Kelly can easily beat Brie. The WWE has already sold that message. With that, it is easy to believe Kelly Kelly can win the Diva's Championship. The current diva with the title is not that credible, even with twin magic. What can beating Brie Bella really do for making Kelly Kelly look like an awesome wrestler? Aside from winning the title and the basics of match quality that you would expect, Kelly Kelly does not really look as credible as she would climbing a tougher, more credible mountain. That mountain would be Kharma. Credible jobber. Scratch that. There are still a few ways this storyline can go. Kelly and Kharma can form a partnership. They do not have to face off in some epic encounter that the WWE is building up to. Yeah, and John Cena did not have to be written to go over a well-built stable like Nexus, leaving them on a steady path of mediocrity since then. Whether friends or foes, Kharma is still there for the benefit of Kelly Kelly in this current set up. If the WWE chooses to bring in the Raw divas who do have wrestling ability into this picture, then the story may take a different focus. It would be somewhat respectable if they build this to get Beth Phoenix involved, but I doubt it. Just too much focus on Kelly Kelly. As I have said before, this angle of Kharma squashing divas cannot go on for much longer. What happens after? Things look better for Kelly Kelly than Kharma Kharma. Kelly has already gotten more attention on her these past few weeks than Eve and Brie. That "feud" got killed off easily, didn't it?
