They should just go hardcore into the pathetic angle, Jeb Bush levels of "please clap  " with Roman sitting in the ring with a little corgi and talking about how he's really sorry for what The Management is doing with his story and just wants to entertain y'all with some good wrestling

The Smackdown/Raw split is extra annoying to me because that split in resources would be way, way better served having a dedicated diva event or tag team event rather than stapling those onto The Stuff Vince Actually Wants To See. Instead we have two arbitrarily split rosters for....reasons?

Aphrodite posted:(Also putting them on one wouldn't give more time, it would just mean more unused people.) Do the two shows usually give divas half the runtime each? If so then fair enough I suppose. It's just frustrating because they have so much good womens talent but they dont have a sort of unifying showrunner like HHH to NXT to write competent storylines and good matchups. It seems like they just get WWE's b-team of writers.

Seeing a UK crowd cheer for Jinder just has me convinced that the WWE could attain world peace via mutual booing of Roman Reigns.

Blaise330 posted:Why would Asuka winning make people mad? I know there’s the “why didn’t she just beat Charlotte?” angle If they went with a threeway power-struggle where Charlotte can beat Asuka, Asuka beats Carmella, and Carmella beats Charlotte that could make for some fun stories and teamups to try to tip odds in their favor.

Incidentally, that lines up with the gradual scale of ring performance to mic performance, with Charlotte being the boring middle.

Isn't "real fighter who beats you up good because he fought for real" basically Brock Lesnar, though That works for TNA because I assume they dont already have a Brock Lesnar, but I dont blame WWE for not turning their programming into League Of MMAUFC: The Posterboard Square

I admittedly don't know the details of the rape accusation, but as someone who 100% feels that the assumed victim should be granted faith and serious consideration unequivocally, it's a little strange that the accuser didn't file a charge after going public with it online.

Patrick Spens posted:The letter doesn't say that. It says that police didn't talk to Enzo before the post, and it says the cops don't think there's enough evidence to move forward. It doesn't say the accuser didn't try to press charges. The "no charges were ever filed" part made me think otherwise, apologies if I'm mistaken. Irregardless of the legitimacy of the accusations, it sounds like Enzo's an idiot noone likes, and that they probably just took the first chance they found to terminate his contract.

Low Desert Punk posted:so have they made a case for why fans should like Ronda Rousey that isn't "she's a famous person" she's played a heel for the majority of her career, she legit wants to wrestle and is happy for it (contrast with Brock who seems to want as little to do with it as possible), and vince/HHH are willing to let her slam men and it's been too long since we've had a Chyna

spudsbuckley posted:She needs different shorts. She has to readjust them every time she does something, it was the same in the WM match. It's awkward looking to have her repeatedly doing that. This reminds me that I saw a clip of Rick Rude's final match and man do wrestlers look way better showing some adonis belt instead of being all diapers (I internally booed when the referee dived in to pull his pants up)

Blaise330 posted:How is WWE so good at making money A lot of it is based on stock estimates rather than existing quality; WWE just signed into a lucrative deal with Saudi Arabia, and Vince is planning a new football league (which is probably going to crash and burn) so on top of a guaranteed 200mil over 10 years they also have significant access to that market and a guaranteed high-visibility promotional launch, which means that they're potentially a really profitable venture. NXT loses money because it's intentionally not set up to generate revenue, but instead to create new WWE talent/train indies in the WWE style.

The thing that keeps me from checking out NJPW is that they're pretty bad wrt women, and even if they're being horribly mismanaged and squandered right now WWE's diva stable is really good.

I wonder if the eternal push for RR is at least partially fueled by Vince's disdain for big tag teams. Especially as right now he's pretty much a walking rebuttal to the idea that you can just dump all the tag traits and popularity on one of the wrestlers.

It would have been funny in an actually intentional way if RR had burst through the cardboard to ambush Jinder. As if RR had blocked off catering and laid in wait for the telltale groaning of a wounded Jinder. The ultimate foolproof plan. A big fake wall to hide the big dog.
