Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Total Divas focuses on the real lives and careers of female WWE wrestlers. The show emphasizes personality, competition, and drama over pushing identity politics. While representation is inherent because of its subject, it doesn't feel forced or at the expense of the narrative, which is mostly about personal relationships and career challenges.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The show does highlight empowered women in a male-dominated industry, but it doesn’t aggressively undermine traditional values. Family, relationships, and ambition are central themes. Some might feel masculinity is sidelined simply due to the show's focus, but it’s not done in a way that mocks or subverts.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Traditional perspectives aren’t heavily criticized, but the show doesn’t really present a wide range of worldviews either. It centers mainly on the experiences and drama of the core cast, without making strong ideological statements or villainizing alternatives.
