YMMV / Angelina Love

Go To

  • Designated Hero: When she returned to TNA in 2010 her Heel–Face Turn was her attacking Velvet, Madison and Lacey. For no reason. She then claimed Velvet tried to replace her and took it for granted that she wouldn't be back. It should be said that when Velvet saw Angelina in the crowd, she was happy and started hugging her, and when Angelina came to the ring ostensibly to check on Madison after the match it was Velvet that signaled for her to come in. Fans were expected to appreciate Angelina's face turn which was literally an unprovoked sneak attack because Velvet was apparently supposed to put the stable on hiatus while she worked out her visa issues. And when she returned from injury, she blurred the lines by giving Velvet and Lacey a DDT onto a steel chair. Of course Madison Rayne was a massive Alpha Bitch so Angelina just looked better by comparison, but one could be forgiven for calling this an Evil Versus Evil feud. At the very least it's an Enemy Civil War.
  • Ensemble Dark Horse: She and Velvet were actually not featured that much as the Beautiful People in the early days. But in 2009 their popularity grew enough to have Angelina win the Knockouts title. Angelina even commented on how surprised she was that even when she left TNA she and Velvet were still getting booked together. This eventually resulted in her returning to TNA to reform the stable. Angelina has always been the most popular member of the group, presumably because she was the best wrestler of them.
  • Fashion-Victim Villain: Her hair got huge in 2009. But that was a brief phase, the fishnet gloves persisted far longer.
  • Fetish Retardant: Some of her trashier gear, though that may have been intentional.
  • Hollywood Thin: Between her runs in Deep South Wrestling and Ohio Valley starting in 2005 up until her return to the Pro Wrestling Syndicate in 2013, fans constantly made jokes about how thin she was. In 2011, Love put a picture of herself with a crisps bag and a sandwich on her Facebook page to prove she did not have an eating disorder. Williams was equally thin at least during the first year of her career, presumably getting a pass then for being primarily known as a valet.
  • Les Yay: With The Beautiful People and Winter.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: Her solo TNA theme is this to "Papercut" by Linkin Park, which is her indies theme.
  • Tear Jerker: See the Screwed by the Network entry on her Trivia page.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Despite the Beautiful People splitting up plenty of times, Angelina and Velvet never had a proper big grudge match on the big stage. They just had matches on Impact or Xplosion.
  • Vindicated by History: At the time, her angles were derided for being too convoluted and lacking in sense. Skip forward a few years and all people talk about is her being a record setting titleholder. She also managed to avoid the Beautiful People's most unpopular faze by virtue of either not being there or being against them.
