No idea how things will work out but if you saw the now deleted Bianca Belair-Montez Ford-Dan Matha Twitter exchange last weekend bank it in your memory for future reference.

The Shayna/Io feud is really flying under the radar as some of the worst poo poo in WWE. Their matches are still great but it's totally wasted on the worst endings and the worst storylines.

That ending was dumb, but also the post match angle loving ruled. So I'm split. Io wasn't getting much momentum as a babyface, to be honest.

How is she supposed to gain any momentum if she loses every title match in the exact same way?

She wasn't even before that. All she was identified as was "Kairi's friend" before this point. And now that's changing.

The ending to the cage match sucked, but that's a Shayna match for you these days.

Yeah, and then she developed momentum by being in the title scene, which they pissed away by doing nothing with it. And now she's a heel for reasons. It sucks.

Why would you do a moonsault off the top of the cage when you could just climb out? This is one of the reasons why cage matches suck.

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Because notably two murderers have both jumped from the top of the cage.

You are technically complaining about the right thing but for the wrong reason. You should not be able to win by climbing out. Cage match is supposed to STOP the heel from running away. The only reason to climb up it is supposed to be to jump off and gently caress your opponent up.

I guess its fine to talk about it now, but Dave speculated in a previous newsletter that Io was supposed to turn on Kairi before she was called up. So they went with someone almost as sympathetic in Candice. :shrug:

WWE has done an incredible job making almost every gimmick match loving suck. I should probably stop following WWE in general, the last repose of logical booking has been going downhill for so long :(

And god I wish the takeover before Wrestlemania they gave us Sky Pirates Vs. Boss Hugs

Flat ending to that cage match (I probably would have liked it more if it had been the ending to their first match as opposed to what felt like a blow-off) but I really dug the match itself, especially how into it the crowd were. Io going nuts again but this time against another face actually makes me like her being a sore loser against Shayna after their last match, when I had thought it was pretty dumb at the time.

Shayna is great but she is spinning her wheels in NXT as the Champion, I don't know who the hell she goes up against after this.

Shes not conventionally attractive and, no confirmation but it follows her, she might be gay. For Vince shes a no hitter.

Mia Yim. The black Korean protective superwoman, they established her last few weeks.

I think the bigger issue with Shayna would be age. Late 30s is dang old in the women's division (except for Asuka and Tamina who somehow get away with it).
