7 Reasons Eva Marie Should Be WWE SmackDown's First Women's Champion

7. She's One Of The Best Heels In WWE

If there’s one thing WWE doesn’t have enough of it’s pure heels who generate massive heat While there are obviously plenty of characters on the roster who are bad guys and girls by definition, but very few of them are able to elicit passionate responses of hatred when they appear before audiences.

The best heels in the entire company – Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens – have become so great at their jobs that it’s an uphill battle every night to keep the fans from turning them babyface. Except for The Miz. Everyone is united in their hatred of Miz, and that’s a testament to the quality of his work. On the women’s side, Charlotte has actually done a fair job of getting herself over on the dark side, especially once she broke away from her father and stepped out of his impossible shadow.

Eva Marie, however, is on a whole different level of heel. From the moment she began appearing on NXT Ms. #AllRedEverything has drawn some of the most voracious negative responses in the entire company. Fans despise everything about her, and it’s rare that a female wrestler is able to garner that much heat with audiences.

When you take into account that her character has done so without most of the usual tropes WWE creative uses for females and has instead turned into the ultimate diva we’re all begging to see lose, that’s a spectacular feat. There hasn’t been a woman with this much heat in a WWE ring other than Stephanie McMahon. The promotion needs to capitalize on that.
