The shows follows the women through their personal and professional lives, giving viewers a more intimate and relatable experience watching them. The ladies of WAGS lead very glamorous lives, and the first episode gives viewers the breakdown of what that entails exactly. WAGS begins with showing explicitly the drama and stress that comes with being the counterpart of a famous sports star. Former WWE goddess Barbie Blank, or better known by her wrestling alias, Kelly Kelly, brings a familiarity to the show, since she has had frequent television experience. Her relationships to the other cast members plays a crucial part in the dramatic and tense atmosphere of the show. For example, the first episode details her feud with two of the other ladies on the show, which causes uneasiness in the group of women. WAGS intricately details how one woman's personal ails will affect the rest of the ladies. WAGS also documents the ladies' supporting roles to their husbands/boyfriends. They pride themselves on being their number one fans. They also discuss the prospect of infidelity, and the pressure of knowing that everyday, other women throw themselves at their high-profile husbands. They stress how easy it is to feel insecure in their relationships, especially when it comes to commitment, referring particularly to one situation where the fiancee of one of the football players frets over setting their wedding date, even though they already have a child. WAGS centers around these women and the roles that they play in their husband's/boyfriend's lives, coinciding with group drama that comes with the glamorous lifestyle that they take on.
