I think we had a talk like that a few weeks before WrestleMania, though, because he was still hung up on what could have been, what should been, whatever it might be. Not hung up on it, but you know...

the only reason to be in WWE if you're a high value name is if they're willing to pay you the most. if you care just one little iota about being a good wrestler, telling a good story, having great matches you're doomed. Just look at development right now, they're taking college athletes who couldn't make it in a major sport and fitness models and turning out some of the worst wrestlers they have in a long time. the WWE does not care about wrestling you're losing your spots to celebrities who want to do vanity projects for clout

I have sympathy, doesn't cost a thing. Sucks that they decided to stick with the company that was actually treating women like a main event after they worked hard to get it and in the end it all got taken away again.

Either shut the gently caress up and cry yourself to sleep about your bad booking on the big pile of Saudi blood money they’re paying you with or do something cool like PAC and just walk out.

Chris James 2 posted:He’s an NXT champ now so no BWAHAHA As a very casual WWE watcher I have no interest in Roman vs. Jey because it's just going to be another dinner theater production where Roman wins. Cody and Brock again. lol, could be funny, but I don't really care. Participation trophy match. Who cares. Sure It'll be a good match, but who cares. Ronda and her friend having their masturbatory match. That's all I know. Rhea and to a lesser extent Dom is the act I'd be most interested in.

MJeff posted:Rhea being off SummerSlam seems egregious even to me. Isn't she the hardest pushed thing besides Roman since Paul took over? Her 'push' is so wrapped up in the Judgement Day stuff it's hard to tell really. She's been booked to look strong but hasn't had any legitimate challengers yet, which might be because they don't have any but might also be because she's on TV alot anyway as Dom's valet and the Mami thing is working well with a segment of fans. But her reign thusfar feels like it's taken a bit of a backseat to the Dom push imo.

Cannot overstress that Brock was directly working against his interests by attacking Cody. Brock cannot challenge for the Undisputed title as long as Roman is champion and Cody was angling to get another shot at Roman before Brock attacked him. Roman hasn't defended his title at all since Wrestlemania, chiefly because Brock took out the number one contender.

Rhea is one of the most popular stars they have right now, man or woman, and not getting her onto the Summerslam card is dumb as heck. But the WWE is gonna WWE so...

I mean Brock got a mic on Monday and all he said was "Me and Cody are gonna kick each other's asses, Cody, come out and shake my hand." And that was the go-home segment. And this is probably the blow-off, so. We probably ain't ever gettin' a reason!

MJeff posted:Rhea being off SummerSlam seems egregious even to me. Isn't she the hardest pushed thing besides Roman since Paul took over? Here are her matches since winning the title at Mania: -Two mixed tags w/ the Judgement Day against the LWO, setting up -Successful defense against Zelina at Backlash (match on 5/6, matchtime 7:11) -Successful defense against Dana Brooke on the Raw after Backlash (5/8, 1:42) -Successful defense against Nattie at Night of Champions (5/27, 1:10) -Successful defense against Nattie on Raw (7/3, 12:45) -Successful defense against Lyra Valkyria on NXT (7/25, 10:12) So in four months, she's had four singles matches on the main roster that have lasted a total of 20 minutes, 48 seconds of ringtime. This is by far their hottest woman's star (I think they ran into a problem where they presented her as a threat to male wrestlers, so now internally they don't know how to book her against women anymore and haven't wanted to throw a serious competitor at her. If only they controlled these things!)

Rhea is one of their biggest stars but yeah, they don't have any real challengers. Becky would be the logical choice but they wrapped her up with the Trish stuff, then I dunno why that is off the card too. I think they wanted to do Raquel vs. Rhea but I dunno if injuries happened there, but that's not really a match that would draw much. Liv vs. Rhea would be a better draw and probably pretty decent. No excuse to leave Rhea off the card, though. Even if you just dropped her into the Trish and Becky match that would be better than nothing. But they have a lot of midcarders in the women's division, but only a few main eventers. So a lot of those matchups seem stale. I think IYO moving to Raw and cashing in would be the best way they can shake up the main event scene for Raw and give Rhea a fresh opponent.

And then it ended with Becky hitting her finisher on the other guy anyway?

Continuing to do the "WWE is the best at women" gimmick when the company is run by a literal serial rapist who literally abused his employees. Great stuff. btw, you never answered this. MJeff posted:Go ahead and explain why the program that got the most time on Raw, was the most well-received thing in the company and involved the top championship in the company main eventing Wrestlemania would've been stupid.
