At the heart of any 'Divas Revolution' is that most important of movements in modern history, the push and desire for equal status between the genders. 

The NXT portrayal of women came excelled at this, treating its females as an integral part of the show as opposed to a sideshow accompaniment to the main meal if you will.

What is needed is for the female division to be presented organically, to be presented naturally, as opposed to Michael Cole and the rest of the commentary team opening up segments as if they are exactly that, segments on a TV show. 

The WWE is an influential entertainment medium, and whether they mean to or not their portrayal of women as a sideshow attraction to 'real' athletes is planting seeds in the mindsets of young folk worldwide. A true revolution in the WWE regarding its female performers can only start when they are respectfully treated for their performance, not for their gender.
