WWE Royal Rumble 2014: 10 Allies Who Will Fall Out

3. AJ Lee and Tamina

Aj Lee No, they're not in the Rumble match proper, but all signs point to a Divas match rounding out the card on Sunday. It will likely be AJ vs. Naomi, given Naomi's recent victories over the champ. With Tamina at ringside, AJ has had the upper hand in theory only these days. They cut a striking image: the tall, stern Samoan and her diminutive, wily charge. But now that Tamina's been getting increasingly involved with the in-ring action, her flaws are increasingly apparent. Meanwhile, it's time for AJ to look ahead to WrestleMania. Naomi is super athletic with energy to spare, but that energy needs to be channeled better. AJ needs to settle the score with the Total Divas and move on... alone. During the celebration of her record-breaking title reign, Josh Matthews provoked her fury when he pointed out that no one on the roster likes her. The cake she pitched at him missed the mark, and hit Tamina instead. I have a feeling there will be similar missings of the mark in the near future. Perhaps on Sunday, AJ can send the Funkadactyl back to her nest and send Tamina packing. This skulking about in Diva limbo must be a terrible bore for someone like AJ. Bring back Mickie James. Bring back Karma! Bring in a wrestler who can join AJ in revitalizing the women's division, as they teased us with Kaitlyn last year.
