WWE Beast In The East: 10 Awesome Moments
6. Tamina Was Over With The Japanese Crowd
If there's one thing Tamina can't really claim usually, it's being firmly over with the crowd. Far from being solely her fault, the creative team have never really seemed to have all that much for the Diva, probably because she doesn't really look like the typical WWE female.
Larger and stronger than many of her peers, the daughter of 'Superfly' Jimmy Snuka is not the kind of woman World Wrestling Entertainment would have as the focal point of the Divas division, for example. Despite all of that, the fans in Tokyo really took a liking to her, and even chanted her name for an extended spell.
When was the last time there was a 'Tamina' chant during a WWE show? Has it ever happened? In some form or fashion, Tamina should be used far more effectively than she is in the company, because it's clear she has something to offer that's different from the other females. It seems unlikely the writing staff will push Tamina any time soon, but she was over in Japan.
