When you think “Diva,” sometimes you think of a limber grappler, occasionally a statuesque model and, every once in a while, a towering punisher. What you don’t always think of is a quirky Aussie with a thing for submission holds, and that’s where Emma comes in.

A woman who subverted the concept of a Diva through hard work and a carefree attitude, Emma burst onto the scene in WWE NXT as a bubbly mat specialist with an awkward dance move that captured the hearts of the NXT Universe, not to mention Santino Marella. Emma flirted with championship gold numerous times, most notably in an NXT Women’s Title Match against Paige at NXT ArRIVAL that set an early benchmark for the Divas of the next generation.
