The new ladies movement in the WWE may be called the "Divas Revolution," but it sure hasn't felt like one -- and it's drawn the ire of one Hall of Famer.
Medusa a.k.a. Alundra Blayze is pissed at Nikki Bella after she put her hands up to stifle the crowd when they were chanting for the former ladies wrestler this past week on Monday Night RAW.

Blayze didn't just take issue with Bella's actions, but she laid into the Divas Revolution as a whole on Instagram. The former three-time WWE Women's Champion called some of the ladies, "illiterate" and "disrespectful," while also adding that they "cannot wrestle."
The 2015 Hall of Famer may have been harsh in her Instagram post, but she certainly has a point about the Divas Revolution.

The WWE promised change when it put Team B.A.D., Team Bella and Team PCB together, but there have been several issues. For one, the creative team fell into the same hole of booking the ladies into meaningless tag team matches and lumping them all together.
That was never more prevalent than at SummerSlam, when all nine ladies were thrown into the same match.
Though Bella has improved greatly, she's not of the caliber worker that Paige, Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks and WWE Divas Champion Charlotte are. Furthermore, the ladies have a lot to live up to if they ever want to surpass Hall of Famers Trish Stratus, Lita or even Blayze by starting a real revolution.
These powerful women need to study what the trailblazers before them did to tell a good story. The WWE has started to take the revolution more seriously by breaking up PCB so they can go their own way and giving Paige an edgier character. Putting the title on Charlotte was also a smart move because it sparked change, though the reliance on her father, Ric Flair, could become overkill.
It also doesn't help that Team B.A.D. has been M.I.A. in all of this lately, especially since that faction boasts arguably the best of the bunch in Banks.
It's one thing to be sexy, but until the booking and in-ring work improves, there won't be a Divas Revolution.
