Season chronology

Total Divas is an American reality television series that premiered on July 28, 2013, on E!.[1][2] The series gave viewers an inside look of the lives of WWE Divas from their work within WWE to their personal lives. Behind the scene footage of the Divas is also included.[3][4][5][6] Season 4 ended on September 29, 2015 with 1.15 million viewers.[7] Season 4 also drew a cable ranking of No. 5.[8]

Production

On September 5, 2015, an online article states that there could be a strong possibility Total Divas will be renewed for a fifth season. It reads that season four will "wrap up this fall" and the new season "won't air till 2016 some time".[9] On September 9, 2015, Naomi revealed on Twitter that she had been taken off the main cast after the mid-season finale, which is expected to air on September 29.[10] Season four may be extended following the mid-season hiatus instead of jumping to season five.[10] There has been speculation that WWE Tough Enough runner-up Amanda Saccomanno may join the cast after the mid-season hiatus.[10] It was later confirmed that Amanda will be joining the cast.[11] After the September 22 episode of Total Divas aired, it was announced that the following weeks episode would serve as the season finale, rather than a mid-season finale.[12]

Season 5 was announced on October 6, 2015, which started airing in January 2016 with a majority of last season's cast returning. Naomi was officially removed from the main cast with Mandy taking her place and Rosa Mendes returning as a series regular.[13][14][15]
