Line 1: {{~~trope~~work}} On the finale of WWE Nxt season 2 it was announced that the next season would comprise entirely of rookie divas, the first season of NXT to do so. The show was broadcast on Sy-fy for five weeks but when Smackdown was moved to the network, the rest of the season was broadcast on WWE.com. This season saw a new element introduced to the competition theme with winning the rookie challenges earning immunity from elimination. The season arguably veered into [[So Bad ~~Its~~It's Good]] territory with incredibly outrageous challenges for the rookie divas (including musical chairs and a sumo wrestling contest) and one of the worst matches in WWE history. However the season had its fans and the ''Diva Dirt'' website actively supported the show for its focus on women's wrestling. Like the other seasons, it ran for 13 weeks but uniquely featured only two rookies in the finale (the previous seasons had shown three rookies surviving to the final episode). The pros and rookies for this season were: Line 7: * Naomi Night - [[Sassy Black Woman]] who lasted to the finale but came second. Mentored by Kelly Kelly. * Jamie Keyes - The ring announcer from season 2 and the first diva to be eliminated. Mentored by the Bella Twins. * Aksana - A Lithuanian power lifter who was remarkably similar to current diva Maryse. During her time on the show she was involved in an angle with her pro Goldust revolving around her having immigration problems. She was also featured prominently in the feud between Goldust and Ted ~~[[Di Biase]]~~DiBiase. * Maxine - the only full blown heel on the show who liked to brag that she belonged on top. She had a bit of a mini-feud with Hornswoggle. Mentored by Alicia Fox. * Aloisia - originally meant to be mentored by Vickie Guerrero and was considered one of the favourites since she was a 6 foot 9 [[Hot Amazon]]. However she was removed from the competition before it aired after erotic photos of her were found online. * Kaitlyn - Aloisia's replacement, also mentored by Vickie Guerrero. She was noticeably the least experienced of the rookies, her first match even being on NXT. She started off as a heel but was involved in a [[Love Triangle]] with Vickie and Dolph Ziggler effectively turning her face. She was the eventual winner of the contest. {{tropelist}} ~~This show provides examples of:~~ * [[Armour Piercing Slap]]: Aksana to Goldust (see [[Citizenship Marriage]] below). * [[Ascended Extra]]: Jamie Keyes who had served as ring announcer on season 2 was an actual contestant this time. Line 36 ⟶ 35: * [[Sensual Spandex]]: Aksana's devil costume. * [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Three of each on the show. Tomboys were Kaitlyn, AJ and Jamie while girly girls were Naomi, Maxine and Aksana. * [[Wham! Line]]: Naomi did a shoot on the penultimate episode and said "Kaitlyn can't wrestle". * [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Naomi loved to dye her bangs various different colours. {{reflist}} [[Category:NXT 3]] [[Category:~~Trope~~Pages needing more categories]]
