The Latest Backstage Update on the WWE Divas Search

As of this writing, WWE is very back and forth about doing a WWE Divas Search show this year. The current plan would be to run the show on the WWE Network if it does happen, but with the way Tough Enough went down this year there are officials who have “cold feet” on running another reality show.

New Gimmick for WWE Tag Team?

WWE might soon be repacking Los Matadores.

NXT Talents Unhappy with WWE Booking Blue Pants

There is said to be quite a bit of heat on NXT talent Leva Bates, known as Blue Pants.

NXT talents are reportedly upset that Bates was brought in for NXT Takeover Brooklyn, but is not under an NXT deal, so she is allowed to sell her own merchandise and does not have to give WWE a cut.

Also, because Bates is not under a normal NXT deal, she does not have to go through the daily WWE Performance Center training, and she is still able to work the indies. Because of her presence on NXT TV, Bates has increased her fee for indy appearances, which has a lot of NXT talents upset because she is making more money than they are.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
