WWE: 7 Divas Who Should Have Never Held The Title

4. Kelly Kelly

Kelly Kelly Fondly remembered for her mega-watt smile and her ability to wave excitedly for long periods of time, Kelly Kelly held the title for 4 months in 2011. She was like a Bella without a twin (maybe that's why they tried to trick us by naming her twice) in that she was a popular representative for WWE. When they needed someone to smile, wave, and deliver sound bites (in a bikini, preferably), Kelly was often the chosen one. However, her wrestling skills left fans befuddled as to whether she was on the GIVING or RECEIVING end of the offense. One would always have to wait with great anticipation to see which wrestler would end up writhing in overacted pain on the mat. More times than not, it wouldn't be Kelly, because she saw far more victories than was her due. But it wouldn't look good for the Maxim model to have a sad face, unless they needed her to have a scared face! Kelly was often called into service when a damsel-in-distress was required. She was probably no worse than any of the others who've been forced to cower in the corner of the ring under the threat of a Kharma or a Kane, but the fact that Kelly was so highly profiled made her poor acting skills even more painful to watch. She was a great model but a terrible Divas Champion.
