WWE originally had a match for the female superstars named the women’s championship. It was by the end of the bygone era when a new strap surface on the scene. A Butterfly-designed title replaced the earlier title. WWE introduced this one to be the Divas Championship. It was quite relevant for the then female roster where Divas were the priority.
Maria Kanellis was one of those members of the so-called Divas locker room. The Bella Twins, Kelly Kelly, Eve Torres, were the headliners of this era. So they could connect to this particular generation.
In fact, their relevance decreased on the roster and TV, significantly. It, in turn, started the #GiveDivasAChance trend on the social media.
It forced the WWE to conquer this particular Divas term and reinstate the Women’s Championship. So the Divas title worked, as the inducer of the current Women’s Revolution. Maria Kanellis wanted to point out the relevance of the Divas term from this perspective. She also wanted the butterfly-shaped title back onboard.

A fan asked on Twitter about bringing something back in the WWE. Maria Kanellis replied to it saying she would like to bring back the Divas title. She did not want to take away any of the present women’s championships present in the WWE. But her wish was to see the previous title back alongside these two.
Check out her comments,
“There are few people that truly understand what the Divas title was supposed to be. It was supposed to be another title to fight for, just like there are today, not the only title. But people criticize that don’t understand, and that’s just ignorance.”
She continued saying they always fought to put on make-up on a daily basis for the title. Even now they are trying to make a statement even after becoming mothers. So nobody can take anything away from them. Girls like Brie Bella, Maryse, Mickie James are on this list. Even Maria Kanellis is trying to make a return after transforming into a mother.
‘The first lady of the WWE’ also defended the Divas term from a recent Smackdown episode. Charlotte called Carmella a Diva living in the women’s era.
