Yeah, but I blame that on WWE. She never sounded this bad even in NXT. Either give her a manager or don't make her cut their garbage scripted promos. And she's still a better promo than people like Nia and Alexa

PWInsider has said he hasn't been spotted backstage, so if he shows up, it'll be a prerecorded promo or line most likely.

Next weeks Smackdown had updated advertising released last night. It is advertising Charlotte vs Carmella for the SD Womens Championship.

Her promos are kind of difficult to understand. Her accent is incredibly thick.

Blame the bookers, her English is fine when she's not playing up the accent.

She spoke perfectly clearly on Smackdown. It seems fairly obvious that she's just over emphasizing the accent and yelling a lot for whatever reason. That in turn makes it seem like she's struggling to find the words and pronounce them. But she doesn't actually seem to have that problem, its just seeming that way because of the style of her promos.

Note the lack of CARD/TALENT SUBJECT TO CHANGE on this page as well. WWE generally has that put on every page if the card isn't finalized.

To be fair, going from normal and professional to yelling with an exaggerated yakzuza-like accent when she gets frustrated is something she's done most of her career so it's not like she's doing anything out of character.

I'm looking forward to Vince deciding that Carmella will pull a Rollins and expecting people to just get over Asuka immediately just like they did when Daniel Bryan lost to Sheamus in 8 seconds at Wrestlemania

Given that Taker is a geriatric and Cena is barely around, I'm guessing its a part of a long build to next year or something, or just a fun thing for the fans

Evidently the hip surgery he had was a huge success and he feels 15 years younger. Supposedly he has been telling everyone he regrets not getting it done many years ago. Take that as you will.

My dad had his hip replaced 2 years ago and he said the same thing. Was mad at himself for not doing it years ago and he’s been walking around like a new person ever since.

I've cooled off on posting betting line stuff in here, but there were a few interesting things on some websites. Carmella has overtaken Sasha, Bayley, and Becky as the favorite to win the Women's Battle Royale and is now sitting at -210. Her cashing in MITB in the same night for the SD Women's Championship or RAW Women's Championship is at -125. But her odds of actually succeeding is +137.50 for both sides.
