6 Directions The WWE Divas Revolution Can Go From Here

2. Split Team B.A.D.

This may be a controversial one, and perhaps should be left a few weeks until the intial hype from Paige turning her back on PCB has died down. 

As much as they may annoy wrestling purists (though isn't it their job to annoy people as heels?!), the Bella Army works as a dominant heel faction, especially if Nikki is treated as the de facto leader and main contender for the title (although it's criminal that someone as good as Alicia Fox has been relegated to a cheerleader role, especially given how good her matches on NXT have been whenever she's been in the mix). 

This creates a huge issue for Team B.A.D. - essentially portrayed as heels but given a mixed reaction due to the popularity Sasha Banks is still carrying over from NXT. I like Team B.A.D. as a group, but there's no obvious leader in the mix and that hurts them. 

There's no real reason for them to remain a trio in the long term as with the current lay of the land there's not gonna be much for them to do beyond more endless tag matches with the Bellas (oh joy!). So split them - have Naomi and Tamina turn on Sasha, let them feud for a bit with Tamina remaining Naomi's enforcer (and maybe consider her, like, actually winning some matches and looking dominant so that she's a convincing one) and use that to help elevate both women to the level they should be at.

With Paige logically becoming the next number one contender for the title, Becky Lynch presumably staying in Charlotte's corner (though again, there are plenty of interesting potential options there) and the Bella Brand being far too strong to be broken again (sorry guys, spend three minutes on Instagram looking at Bella hashtags and you'll see exactly why they've been on top for so long), Team B.A.D. need something to do, and this is it. 

It also gives Naomi and Sasha individual angles to persue - something they both desperately need right now.
