This should not be shocking, of course. Given that the WWE wants to maintain their diva division, the only hope I saw for Kharma would be if they had transitioned her to some angle in the periphery after her debut storyline, which had seemed to be developing in a way to put over Kelly Kelly, who was being built to be the new centerpiece back then, in some way. It would seem that they just could not come up with anything that they would be willing to do. Had they not gone with the periphery treatment, like having her wrestle the men regularly, the only option was phasing her out. She would not be developed as the top diva or centerpiece. Using a woman like her as just a regular credible jobber would be stupid. It is a shame they did this, but not a shock.
You have talk about TNA getting Kharma back. I don't think I need to say much there. Go back to what I said about Angelina Love leaving. You have too many women to push well and they are not doing it. If Kharma did return, she would be on the same show as Gail Kim, Mickie James, Brooke Tessmacher, Velvet Sky, and other women who deserve to be featured prominently. Just tossing all these women into multi-woman matches is not featuring them right. This is not how you develop stars. A lot of potential will be wasted. A lot of potential is already wasted.
The last thing I want to say is on Sara Del Ray. She is coming to the WWE. I am going to be honest. What I am about to say may sound offensive, and I apologize, but this is what I honestly think. Whenever I would read something saying that this woman wants to come to the WWE, I would think that this woman is an idiot. Can she not see what has been going on in that diva division in the last few years? The division has collapsed. This is not a good women's wrestling division. She might think that she will be going there to make it better, or maybe her fans believe that more, but she will be there to be used as the WWE sees fit. Of course, she will benefit from the fact that the division has fallen apart. Had she been signed at a time when there was a centerpiece in place and solid, she would most likely be used as a credible jobber. With the current state of affairs, she stands a chance of being used properly. Not properly in terms of good wrestling on a regular basis, but properly in not being completely wasted in terms of use. Since I usually like holding out that small benefit of the doubt, it could be that the WWE will start rebuilding a good wrestling division for their women with Sara Del Ray, but I am not counting on it. If they were going to, they would do more to keep Kharma.
