It was very obviously a table on top of a shitload of padding. This isn't even close to a Foley bump.

Bliss should be booked like heel champ CM Punk, not 2003 HHH. As much as I love her, I'd rather they give her something else to do for a while. ("Moment of Bliss" on random wrestlers, perhaps.)

Though maybe she's transitional because they didn't want to put the strap on Ronda right away.

Both women's divisions are bad right now. On RAW you have Alexa Bliss as the champion, and on Smackdown you have Carmella. It's like WWE is actively trying to go back to the divas era now. At least NXT's women's division is still good, because at least Triple H doesn't push talent based off of looks alone. :shobon:

What I'm saying is NXT is good. Main roster is bad. I hope people like Sasha, Asuka, Becky etc can find their way back to NXT and extend the show to two hours. Same goes for the Revival, AOP, etc.

The only saving grace for WWE is Vince dying and then we can only hope HHH/Steph don’t just do the exact same thing.

NXT Takeovers pretty much always beat the poo poo out of whatever WWE PPV airs the day after. And NXT is ran (and mostly booked) by Triple H. He seems to be less...random than Vince is when it comes to telling stories as well. If we get even a quarter of NXT level booking on the main roster, it would be a VAST improvement over what we get now.

alexa is better on the mic and has a better character that "i want to be NWA Flair with Harley Race-Lemmy moustache".

ALSO the only one that i totally buy that deserves better is Becky.

Bayley, Sasha, the nxt callouts, retarded laycool they all suck

Good Alexa PPV matches:

2016 Backlash six-pack challenge (sorta; she was the first person eliminated)
2017 WrestleMania six-pack challenge (sorta; it's an "everyone get your poo poo in" match that was pressed for time, but I had fun with it)
2017 Eat Balls vs. Sasha (even with a crap finish)
2017 SummerSlam vs. Sasha
2017 No Mercy fatal five-way (got more stars from Meltzer than Brock/Braun that night)
2018 MITB

In retrospect, I wish more stuff would've happened with Sasha/Alexa. And I wish I could put Charlotte/Alexa on here from '17 Survivor Series but it never really gelled.

Alexa is good at talking and decent at wrestling. She's one of the women actually allowed to have a personality, which is the real problem.

Champion Alexa is much better than Sasha "can she successfully defend her title even once" Banks or "is Sasha really my friend" Bayley.

It almost gelled but then Alexa bumped away from the gel five seconds too early.

Keep bustin'
The brand split and women's equality stuff is really messing with the structure of these shows now. It was weird having two women's title matches AND a women's MITB. Like the level of heat/interest in the women's division is not nearly high enough to justify all three of those segments. Yet all three have become mandatory. That's not good!


When Brock's around, that's 4 "top" titles that need to be on a show. Unless you leave a title off, which really shouldn't be happening. You cannot sustain interest and hype for 4 "top" title matches, so you're gonna have world championship matches intentionally laid out as midcard filler stuff and it's just gonna bring down the overall quality and hype for everything.


Man I'm not against the brand split on principle but doing co-branded specials all the time is really gonna kill some heat all around.


That's another thing NXT shows have going for them actually. None of this baggage to have to book around. You can actually build a typical show around a proper climax in a top title match.
