Don’t let the negativity trick you; Eva Marie is a big-time commodity to WWE. It’s true that the logic of, “Who cares what they’re chanting, as long as it’s loud” is not helpful to the overall quality of the business, but certain things are undeniable.
Eva Marie gets a strong reaction from wrestling fans. It’s been very negative so far, but that just forces WWE to think of her as a natural heel. It also can’t be denied that her in-ring work is improving, and if she sticks with it over the next few years, she could start getting respect.
Recently, “The Red Queen” spoke with E! to promote Total Divas and discussed the negativity surrounding her on WWE programming and her overall experience with NXT.

What does she think of her current run in NXT?
“It’s awesome,” she revealed. “I’m really thankful for Triple H and our chairman Vince McMahon because when I came back from my surgery I basically was like, ‘I want to be the face of this company and I want to bring something to the table.’ And luckily we have NXT, a phenomenal developmental program, so I had asked to go back and train so that I could be the best I possibly could be.”
What is her opinion on the criticism she receives from wrestling fans?
“We are in the entertainment business so the fans are everything and without them I pretty much don’t exist,” Eva Marie said. “They mean the world to me, but at the same time I’m actually very happy that they’ve seen my progress from when I first came in to where I’m at now. It’s just also one of those things like to put out there to any little girl or boy, anybody, that if you want something bad enough you have to just keep knocking down those doors and go for it, regardless of what anybody…whether it’s a colleague, family member or whomever is telling you, ‘No.’ Just don’t listen to that.”
