The WWE Divas Revolution has a problem, and this time it can't be blamed on creative direction. The injury bug is plaguing the division.
Sure the WWE storytelling by the creative team has let them down, but now they can't even get a chance to shine because too many of them are hurt. First, Nikki Bella went down with a back injury in October, which could possibly be contributed to her Rack Attack finishing maneuver.

Then, Sasha Banks, who has been waiting to breakout on the main roster after a stellar run in NXT, injured herself in a match against Becky Lynch, according to PWInsider. Natalya then took to Instagram to reveal that the reason she hasn't been on WWE television as of late is due to an injury that she didn't disclose.
Now, it appears Paige may be dealing with an ailment of her own, according to WrestlingInc. The injury hasn't been confirmed, but there is growing speculation that the Norwich, England native may be sidelined. If it's true, that's four of the WWE's top Divas missing from this revolution gone wrong.

Paige was seen at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando this week, the site reports, which could mean that if she is dealing with something, it may not sideline her for a very long time. Still, the question needs to be pondered: is a lack of in-ring chemistry leading to all of the injuries?
Banks and Becky Lynch, two top-notch performers in their own right, competed against each other on an episode of RAW last month. "The Boss" apparently tweaked something in the bout and hasn't wrestled since. Bella also hurt herself in the ring.
Given the physical nature of the WWE, injuries are inevitable, but the rash of injuries in the Divas division have left the ranks depleted. It's bad enough there are several male Superstars sidelined, but the WWE's well is also running thin with the ladies.
Perhaps the Divas need to find a way to put on safer matches together in order to build on the strong foundation of talent the division has.
The ladies can't change the landscape of women's wrestling forever if they keep getting injured.
