How can they have made her the champion on debut and yet mishandled her so badly? She seems completely out of her element and undeserving of her spot and it sucks because I know she's better (like Emma :smith:)

So renaming the Scorpion Cross Lock means that Sting is definitely coming, right?

PTO? Oh gently caress you, Cole. Scorpion Crosslock is a much better name. (I refuse to accept this is anything but the fault of Michael Cole.)

I have a bad feeling they're going to make her the female John Cena. Look like a chump through most of the match, then reset, quick finisher and win. WWE doesn't seem to know many ways to book faces.

Their titles are so prestigious that they're having a Champion vs Champion match on the show before a PPV.

I dunno, I think that was pretty good. She has the excuse of "some coked out moron started messing with my belt" to keep her head out of the game, ate a finisher, got out, was set up for another signature move, got out, hit both her finishers and then made a women twice her size tap out screaming while staring a hole through Alicia.

She's still cutting the "I'm gonna prove I belong here! :ohdear:" promos, but I have no issues with that. It puts her over as a little bit more humble and baby-face-y.

Also gently caress the haters, non-sensical abbreviations as wrestling finishers own and I'm glad Paige got one. :)

The entire match she came across to me as whiny and timid, whining to the referee to get her belt back, looking upset and not focusing on her match at all, and afterwards instead of jumping out of the ring and making a beeline for Alicia on the ramp she just stood in the ring and looked pouty.

So far her entire run has seemed like she doesn't belong and has basically been lucky to survive her matches, and she's supposed to be the Divas Champion (as well as an aggressive "anti-diva" style asskicker).

Not really. About the best thing so far was Kofi declaring he was starting back on the road to relevancy and success and immediately got his rear end kicked by Cesaro.
