The Raw Women’s title is pretty much dead now. They started killing it with the horrible asuka booking. Now Charlotte finished it off with the hope that Becky can come in and save the belt. For me it is too late I don’t care. I’m not gonna watch raw. I will watch Roman because of his storyline and great heel work. I still have hope for Bianca even though I hate her as the crying babyface.
Bray & Alexa were the best thing going on Raw for a while and they just completely ruined that storyline without any payoff whatsoever. as good as Bray is, it's only a matter of time before people just stop getting invested in his stories.
Cena can’t run a full schedule he has a tv series and im sure many other movie plans. Plus his insurance company would never allow it. He even brought that up on a talk show that he will do what insurance will allow. Him and the Rock are A list actors they will never be allowed back for more than one PPV.
Thats a valid point, but I’d argue there’s some major differences there. AJ’s full time, a lot more tread left on the tires, and a much fresher act. Bringing Cena back is a band aid that won’t fix things in the long term, because he won’t be there for the long term.
I want Becky to come back as a heel and torment everyone until Nikki ASH cashes in on her. Treat Becky as the tribal chieftess and have her attack Nikki relentlessly.
Bray needs to create movies or other kind of content his brain is too good for wrestling. Alexa is a great actor too it’s a shame they didn’t get to finish what they started.
When Becky comes back I know I will watch. She is who got me back into wrestling. Lol her ESPN commercial did it.
Hasn't AJ said he plans to hang it up soon? I think Big E can be a major star. He's a great fun or serious promo, has good matches, people already love him.
I know I'm not the only one, but I've been banging this drum for years. I hope they don't screw this up for him.
It’s not that I don’t feel Rhea is going or not, I just meant her character feels lost. They need to turn her to a full fledge heel and dominate. Charlotte losing the belt so often to win it back is annoying. She is legit, but that Flair name is just driving the count number and it sucks.
Big E needs to win the world title and they need to let Xavier live out his dream and win King of the Ring and we can all just agree New Day was the undisputed greatest tag team of all time.
I never get why the MITB winner doesn't say I want the champ at WrestleMania? Especially for a face. I get a heel doing heel stuff, but as a face my first thought is that I get to main event WrestleMania.
This may be a hot take, Rhea has zero personality and her mic work is average. She has no character outside of being a powerhouse and being young. She is better served going to the mid pack of the division and building a character. Also make a choice, either she is a baby face or heel this tweener shit isn't helping. Also I don't see Becky returning to RAW. Pretty sure she's going to be on Smackdown.
I don't think they had much choice on the payoff for Bray/Alexa given the time requested off by Bray.
Sure and that is why she needs to step away from the title picture because its clear they have no idea how to position her or develop her next to Charlotte. They had a super easy storyline of Rhea being the next big thing. And it all came crashing down because she lost to Charlotte at PC Mania. But they choose to go with Rhea and Charlotte doing everything you can do I can do better storyline as both came off so unlikeable
They give one there, but it's two titles. I know it takes away from all the excitement, but from a logical (lol) perspective, it only makes the most sense.
Rhea vs Io Shirai and Rhea vs Shayna was amazing. Rhea can be a star but this booking will destroy anybody. Shayna should have been the greatest heel in wwe history and look what they did. Damn it’s sad. Please don’t ever call my girl io up.
That Cena pop is monday-after-wm-raw levels. Just really cool. I don't know the ins and ours but they needed to come back with strong reasons to make fans happy upon return and that works. Whatever you may think of Cena there's few people who can get that reaction. Cool moment.
They squash Lee and give you oldberg lol. It’s just funny at this point. I watched tonight to see if Becky returned I’m stupid. Won’t happen again.
Lol Vince is just the best. I love that he had Kross lose to Hardy in Kross’ debut on the main roster. Never change.
Vince had Lee get used as a jobber and takes the NXT champ and has him lose to Hardy who hasn't won a match in 2 years. Seriously fuck this old man. I really hope Becky doesn't come out post match because I don't want a reason to tune into monday nights. At this point we have none
Ouch he jobbed the nxt champ to Jeff hardy. Wow Vince must hate nxt. He pretty much just took away all credibility of that belt. Io please run back to Tokyo. If you don’t they gonna job you to honey drop or whoever
Becky going to come out to save rhea tonight to go back to Charlotte v Becky for the 50th time? Also burying rhea in the process
Io is going to struggle on main roster. She's amazing and beloved in NXT because she's an amazing wrestler. They don't get to showcase that weekly on main roster. She's not as charismatic as Asuka and so she's going to struggle to get over with how Vince loves to push people on the mic first. Just stay in NXT for life.
Io is like kairi. Very skilled in the ring and good for Japanese style wrestling. Kairi was made to be asuka flunky even though she is just as skilled and maybe better. I don’t want anyone to move up to the main roster I enjoy the skill in wrestling. If they call io up it will hurt.
nah, he doesn’t hate NXT, that would require him to have some sort of feelings toward it which I don’t think he has. He looks at it as a developmental territory still so it makes perfect sense to him that the developmental champ would lose to a main roster superstar. He looks at it like a AAA pitcher being called up to strike out Bryce Harper
I’m happy for Nikki as well, still feel that it was Liv Morgan’s time though EDIT: this the 3rd time someone has cashed in on Charlotte
Nikki seems like a really cool person so good for her, but I've never gotten her as a top level star. Meh
Curious how they handle Kross tonight. He can’t be champ anymore he has to get beat tonight. Your champ can’t be a mid card jobber on Monday. Or they can just let nxt be the next 205 live I guess. Vince gets his money so it doesn’t matter.
They just used Nikki as a quick way for Charlotte to add another number to her claim. Shameful really.
I complain about Goldberg but his pop was almost as loud as Cena got. Maybe this product is what wwe fans like and I’m just not one of them.
