I'd be fine with it if it were goofy like a dude selling for an invisible man or a blowup doll or a huge dragon dragon but it's being treated as serious horror

Watch me try to laugh this title off like the dickbag I am.

I also hang out with racists.
The thing about Bischoff selling for the bird is that people actually saw it, no one's watching whatever Lily did

I am staring at my calendar counting down the days until live audiences return if just for the fact that they will absolutely poo poo all over this Alexa/Lilly stuff.

Is there someone on the writing team who has a very specific fetish surrounding feuding women forced to wrestle on the same tag team or something?

Cant wait to see the result of a heel vs heel match where both have been made to look like utter chumps for weeks.

I got curious and was shocked to find that WWE doesn't sell replica Lilly dolls

Presumably to prevent people from hurling them into the ring when live crowds return

Was confused by Riddle making his way in the ring in the first match. Why couldn’t the refs keep him away as soon as he was eliminated? Also that Lily stuff better lead to an Alexa match soon because this is getting ridiculous.

Evalina is finally here

But how will her All Red Everything motto stand up to the fact that her hair is pink now

e: Did WWE change it from "Women's Revolution" to "Women's Evolution" so that AJ couldn't take credit for naming it? Or maybe to imply that the problem was the women, not the way the company booked them

That Rhea/Charlotte vs Nikki/Asuka match was utterly amazing for all the wrong reasons. Asuka was by far the smartest woman (kayfabe wise) in the ring. Nikki spent the entire match getting her rear end kicked and only got the pin on Rhea when Charlotte finally snapped. Otherwise whenever the faces had control, it was all because of Asuka.

Starting to look more and more like a mistake that Asuka lost the title at Wrestlemania! Because now they are running a heel vs heel feud where both women are so unbelievably dumb on top of it.

I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.
Last year's SummerSlam was when I gave up on WWE, mostly because of the Underground stuff on Raw. I remember feeling so liberated to get 7 hours of my week back since watching the product had felt like a literal chore for months.

The recaps, clips, and discussion here have made me feel very good about my decision.

King Mabel and Diesel were terrible but at least it was just one hour a week. Superstars also, but was good for what it was.

I read these threads every week and I still couldn't tell you anything. The only ppl I know in NXT are some dude named Carrion, Io, and the Raquel woman who apparently sucks cause ppl just can't stop talking about how much they suck.

Oh I also heard Gunner is around I think? Lol

I just have no idea how anyone can feel any emotion with current WWE unless they're obsessed with social media. There's literally nothing engaging about the product or their createawrestlers.

So basically every feud in this company right now is both challenger and champion losing constantly, getting humiliated, and then demanding rematches which inevitably result in one or both of them losing and being humiliated.

So why aren't there any stars in wrestling anymore again?
