her opponents certainly haven't helped but paige is not blameless. i mean, in her "title match" vs. AJ she was asked to do one move - her specialty, finishing move which she's done 1000 times - and she botched it.
in terms of character, she has had absolutely no presence or swag about her. she looks nervous and will let out a "yeahhhhh!" or "arghhhh!" once or twice per match after a move but that's about it. i think she's trying way too hard/overthinking everything in the ring and she's looking super stiff and tentative with everything. obviously being pitted against the likes of aksana and naomi or whatever doesn't help hide any of this.
by comparison, AJ would constantly work the crowd and always have some sort of awesome facial expression/reaction to basically everything from start to finish. AJ was great at interacting with the fans and for a diva to be successful i think that's almost a requirement since the in-ring stuff isn't going to compare to what the guys are doing.
