WWE Raw: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (Oct 24)

5. 'Just Here 4 The Divas' Fan Sign

Over the past year or so, WWE have done everything in their power to move away from the 'Divas' tag for their female performers. There was a time when the company embraced that name, citing the Divas as being 'Smart, Sexy and Powerful'. Those days are over, women in the promotion are now simply called 'Superstars' to reflect equality with their male counterparts.

That just makes one fan sign on Raw even more hilarious. As Rich Swann was celebrating his surprise victory over Brian Kendrick on the entrance ramp, the placard was clearly visible. Colourful and covered in love hearts, the sign read, 'Just Here 4 The Divas'.

Clearly, this message is out of touch with the one WWE themselves have been trying to put across. A female revolution in the organisation has been helped by the likes of Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch being wonderful workers inside the ring.

If any of those women happened to see such a sign, they would surely want to rip it up. The term 'Divas' goes against everything WWE stands for currently.
