You know what they say: Good things come to those who wait. And
Kaitlyn’s persistence in pursuing the Divas Title finally paid off on
Raw’s 20th anniversary, when the beautiful NXT veteran finally dethroned
Eve as Divas Champion, capturing the butterfly-emblazoned title in a
hard-fought match with an interesting stipulation. While Eve had largely
retained the title due to chicanery and an exploitation of
technicalities, SmackDown General Manager Booker T decreed the title
would change hands if Eve got herself counted out or disqualified again,
as she had done in recent bouts between her and Kaitlyn.
The
stipulation worked entirely to the challenger’s advantage, as Eve found
herself with nowhere to escape Kaitlyn’s relentless onslaught. The
champion looked as though she might pull off the victory after a rough
start, but couldn’t close the door on the contest to notch a three-count
or submission. The two Divas matched each other shot for shot, as Eve
kicked out of Kaitlyn’s reverse DDT, Kaitlyn escaped the neckbreaker and
Eve withstood the gutbuster in a vicious sequence of signature
maneuvers. Kaitlyn inevitably proved herself the wilier of the two when
Eve tossed Kaitlyn over the barrier and assumed the win was in hand.
While Eve called for a count-out, Kaitlyn snuck back into the ring and
rocked the champion with a spear, bringing Eve’s reign to its crashing
close.
But that's not all: One Diva's triumph was another one's final downfall as, moments later, a furious Eve quit WWE during an WWEActive interview.
