A social media post making light of the NXT women’s division roster is sparking talk online about the abundance of competitors who look the same in the company.
The post was written by @ItsGresh in response to a photo of NXT star Meghan Walker with the new pink ring gear, “How many are there now?” The original post poked fun at a trend in NXT of mostly athletic-looking, blonde women.
Walker, 21, is a former University of Nebraska track star who signed with WWE through their name, image, and likeness program. The glamour and appearance she used at her NXT debut with thigh straps also drew comparisons to Tiffany Stratton.

Commenters in response to the post mocked the idea that “clones” or “variants” seemed to exist throughout the women’s division and made comments about Shawn Michaels and his training as the head of NXT development.
Many also referred to this as “Pokémon”- like evolutions of talent, where they are all evolving, joking, “like Charmander to Charlotte.” Several comments called for adding different ring gear styles to the women’s division.
One comment read: “It’s like a cookie cutting factory, there are 4 of these characters already f—ing drivel man.”
Another read: “They are really trying to recreate the lighting in a bottle they got with Tiffy.”

A third: “This variant doesn’t use as much makeup, that’s about the only difference.”
And one comment finished by saying: “Nineteen Charlotte Flair archetypes on the roster, it feels like.”
