* EvilIsSexy: Once she re-debuted on NXT Redemption, she wrestled in costumes that either showed her midriff or cleavage, and eventually adopted a tight black leotard with {{Stocking Filler}}s. It was also at this time that she was at her most vicious in the ring. She was even told off by WWE higher-ups for being too sexual.

* BrokenBase: Her decision to leave WWE split the fanbase down the middle. One half felt she was justified in leaving, especially since her final match in WWE was a swimsuit battle royal. Others felt she should have waited a little longer - especially since Raw soon moved to three hours and some women did get more time for matches than usual. Likewise NXT soon gave women's wrestling a renewed focus, so fans are split as to whether or not Maxine would have benefited from this if she had stayed. Averted among those who've watched her on Wrestling/LuchaUnderground, though, who consider her work as the sinister Catrina, manager and [[ManBehindTheMan Woman Behind The Man]] to the terrifying [[WrestlingMonster Mil Muertes]], to be one of the most consistently excellent parts of the show.

* NeverLiveItDown: Subverted. For a while she was remembered for a disastrous match she had with Kaitlyn on NXT Season 3 - which was viewed as the lowest point of an already SoBadItsGood show. But she and Kaitlyn feuded on NXT Redemption and had many matches that eventually erased their uncomfortable first one from memory.

** Her magnificent response to Matt Stryker's attempts to flirt with her during the Halloween costume contest. She was dressed as the 'Ice Queen', and he told her she could "melt that outfit".
--> "I can melt this outfit, but do you know what cold water does to a man, Stryker?"
** Her being caught kissing Hornswoggle backstage during Aksana's WeddingEpisode. There is a fine line between love and hate indeed. Even better when she appeared on FCW's 'The Aksana Show', and a fan question asked "how did you feel kissing little man", and pictures of Maxine being caught in the act with an OhCrap face were used.

* GrowingTheBeard: While she had her fans for her heel character on NXT Season 3 and FCW, she hadn't gotten in the ring much to judge her wrestling, and it was assumed she would mainly play an on-screen character. However, re-debuting as Derrick Bateman's girlfriend and her subsequent DarkActionGirl persona caused many to take notice of how much she'd improved as a wrestler.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: One of the women from the 'Diva Era' that managed to achieve a lot of popularity both with Diva fans and a lot of smarks. Through respect for both her character and wrestling on NXT Redemption, many were hoping for her to make an impact in the women's division. When she made her return in ''Wrestling/LuchaUnderground'' there was much rejoicing.
* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments:
** Maxine meeting Derrick Bateman's mother was the favourite moment of many NXT Redemption fans. Quite possibly the only woman who could intimidate her.
** Maxine's attempts to suck up to William Regal by being nice to Tamina, asking if she could call her Tammy.
** Her reaction to Derrick Bateman's proposal - a slap to the face...[[MoodWhiplash followed by]] a BigDamnKiss.
--> '''William Regal:''' I think I may start self-harming.
* HarsherInHindsight: ''Diva Dirt'' pointed out the {{Irony}} of Maxine's theme song having the lyrics "if you want it come and get it, because I won't be around for long" - which turned out to be oddly prophetic of her WWE career.
* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Maxine and Derrick Bateman reconciling on NXT's 100th episode. One of the rare times Maxine ever showed a softer side.
* HilariousInHindsight: Maxine and Derrick Bateman's aggressive kissing after the proposal had Titus O'Neil covering AJ's eyes at ringside. This was before AJ's character on the main roster would become known for [[ReallyGetsAround kissing several people at once]].
* LoveToHate: She's many a Diva fan's favourite bad girl of her era.
* {{Narm}}: Her debut promo had a great BadassBoast...until she referred to herself as "A triple threat. A triple threat. In. A. Skirt." Well alright then.

* StrawmanHasAPoint: She did have a legitimate right to be annoyed at Kaitlyn sniffing around her boyfriend, even if she was physically and verbally abusive.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Maxine was poorly utilised once NXT Redemption was cancelled. She left WWE because of this.
* WTHCostumingDepartment: Her ring gear for her first NXT match was torn apart by ''Diva Dirt'' writers for looking more like a figure skating outfit. They thankfully improved over time.
