* AbortedArc: In early 2012 Kane began targeting Eve, claiming he had big plans for her. One episode of Raw had him lock Eve in an ambulance, and she was saved by John Cena. This segued into her FaceHeelTurn the next week, and Kane was completely forgotten about.

* AbortedArc: AbortedArc:
** After losing the Divas' Championship to Brie Bella, Eve was seen in a backstage segment very fed up and grumbling to Natalya and Gail Kim about how "all you Divas are the same", suggesting a potential heel turn. Whatever storyline this was foreshadowing never came about, and she would go back to being a supporting player in the division until the Divas of Doom angle.
** Indeed, the next week after losing the title, Brie Bella cut a promo taunting her about how she might not get her automatic championship rematch if she was drafted to Smackdown. Eve never actually did get her rematch, and Kelly Kelly was put in the title picture instead.

* MoodWhiplash: Oh, boy. She started off the 2/20/12 Raw by saying she was only using Zack Ryder for attention and was now gonna cast him aside now that she had hooked [[Wrestling/JohnCena "The Big Fish."]] This turned the entire WWE against her nearly instantly. However, a little later, while Cena (who has something of a JerkSue reputation) is verbally tearing her apart, she collapses into a violently crying heap in the middle of the ring, and it's a little uncomfortable to watch.
