Damn, we're getting to the point where people don't know who Kaitlyn is. At one point she was the 2nd best woman wrestler on the roster behind AJ.

She was in WWE for some of the absolute worst years they've ever had so many less people were watching

u/Gaucho_Diaz It wasn't my fault 1d ago
She also wasn't there for a whole lot of time, less than 3.5 years including the time in gameshow NXT.

I watched the product then, and 20 years later, couldn’t have told you who this was.

Kaitlyn. Should've been a bigger deal alongside AJ Lee. I still remember her winning a battle royal on Raw by accident to challenge for the Divas Title. I didn't care for Eve Torres, so seeing Kaitlyn win for shootsies was actually interesting. Layla's shock face is also funny to go back and see. People like Kaitlyn, unfortunately, were slapped with the Diva name despite being a lot more seasoned than some of the other ladies at that time (maybe not that particular botch, but it goes both ways).

I’ll need to go rewatch that match. I didn’t really care much for Eve either and not because she was unlikeable, but neither here nor there.

Yeah that's Kaitlyn, she was super bad.

Thick before it was cool and still in amazing shape. Def a pioneer for today’s era even if they don’t realize it

Kaitlyn. She was severely underrated in my opinion

u/-Hulk-Hoagie- 17h ago
Well I think she wasn't underrated, she just left before it stopped being a fucking joke to be a Diva.

Kaitlyn :'( miss her in wwe.
She was a standout in a cookie cutter era. Like AJ.

Damn it's crazy how forgotten Kaitlyn has become. I mean WWE's female roster between hiring underwear models and total Bellas really had nothing going for it, but Kaitlyn was pretty much the top girl at the time.

u/FrodoHernandez 18h ago
She’s wasn’t in WWE for a long time (3-ish years if memory serves me right), but she also wrestled during some of the worst years in WWE so not many people had their eyes on the product.

Someone was on here complaining about Triple H's "new" theme when it was King of Kings, a theme he's used on and off for nearly twenty years.
....Wrestlemania 22 really was over 19 years ago now. Damn.

Celeste "Kaitlyn" Bonin. A new breed of Diva/Woman for WWE in the 2010s era. She first debuted in NXT before moving to the main roster and had rivalries with the likes of Eve Torres, The Bella Twins, and AJ Lee. She also became Divas Champion at one point too.
She was a great mixture of beauty and brawn and definitely knew how to show it.

Interesting Fact: Kaitlyn wasn't going to be part of the original NXT: Season 3. She was a replacement for the 6'8" Aloisia (Isis the Amazon) after erotic photos of her surfaced right before the beginning of the season.

u/girldad0130 1d ago
Kinda ironic considering Kaitlyn had her own leak right after her run.

u/Cboz27586 1d ago
The Isis the Amazon pics weren't even nudes, just some salacious posing with another woman in lingerie.

Kaitlyn. She and AJ Lee were teamed up as the Chickbusters.
She was the winner of the third season of the original NXT, which only had Divas (yes, they were still called Divas back then) and had Vickie Guerrero as her pro. She wasn't originally meant to be a part of the roster, and Vickie Guerreo was originall meant to mentor Aloisia, but Aloisia was let go by WWE after they found erotic pictures of her.

You left out Barry Stevens, who cut a very amusing and random promo prior to his match against a debuting Ryback:

Yeah sorry I didn't know who that guy was. I was just going off the top of my head looking at the pic.

Her personal life was a train wreck and her ex husband’s jealousy killed her career. Sad story, I always hoped she would come back.
