Its absolutely ridiculous. There's no way the people she was speaking to didn't know it was her, she looked no different other than a blonde wig and terrible accent.

I did not, but I'm familiar with UB's formula...I could see her like, gifting a janitor suffering from kidney disease with a new broom. Normally that segment at the end where they reveal their identity and help out people whose story they were affected by involves giving raises, or promotions, or paying for school. But it's the McMahons, and Stephanie is someone who only sees philanthropy as a tool for PR.

Then again the show itself functions as a PR move for whoever's appearing.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

Stephanie will just verbally emasculate the entire Smackdown Roster when they invade and they'll run back to Smackdown with their tails between their legs.

So the prize for the Mixed Match Challenge was revealed. The winners receive the "coveted" #30 spot in their respective Royal Rumbles.

Which pretty much means AJ and Charlotte are out of the equation.

Yeah. So that leaves Mickie/Bobby and...Miz and Asuka as the real shots to win.

And if I were a betting man (I'm not), I would bet on Miz/Asuka, simply because Mickie/Bobby are stuck pretty much permanently in the midcard.

Braun can lose to Brock at the RR and then win the RR so he can lose to Brock again at WM

I think I liked it better when it was a charity thing with a bunch of heart to it.

I mean, it’s still some of the most fun stuff the main roster is producing (barring Evolution).

Vince apparently had nothing to do with Evolution (Stephanie and Triple H did), and apparently he's pretty much hands off with the MMC as well.

None of those are good choices, knowing they'll enter at 30 in the rumble.

They're not gonna have Asuka win two rumbles in a row, and entering at 30 and then losing is just gross. Flipside is her partner is Miz, and hasn't Miz been a rumble mainstay for like, a decade? I want to say that he eats like, 6 finishers every year.

Charlotte/AJ feels like it can't go that far, either, unless they put the WWE title on someone else before then. Charlotte winning the rumble seems like the most likely result, right now, and having her at 30 would certainly make this easier, but why would AJ even be in the Rumble at all, at this point?

Strowman/Moon both would just get geeked out if they came in at 30, and that's completely unnecessary.

Actually, James/Lashley might be the best choice. Both could come out looking like credible threats at this position, James because she's honestly really loving good and can make her opponent look good, and Lashley because he looks impressive but doesn't have the stamina to be a credible rumble threat unless he comes out at like, 29 or 30 anyhow. On the other hand, wasn't either Lashley or James a last minute replacement for someone else? Feels weird to have a replacement win the thing, but maybe they honestly didn't know who they wanted to win, coming in early.
