Like seriously the psychology of the move is perfectly fine it really shouldn't need to be explained. It makes the heel mad because the face isn't taking this as seriously as them.

bayleys gimmick should really be she's a girl who followed her dreams while not being as conventionally attractive/has wrestling pedigree/indie cred as the other women and is always positive in the face of adversity but instead she's rolling around on the ground laughing like a fool and cant actually do poo poo on her own


she looks like an idiot nonstop in the booking she doesn't need a move set to add to that

bayley doing that move makes me, the viewer, look like a retard for watching her do that in my cartoonish fake fighting 3-hour-circus TV show.

and then authority figures and romantic interests from a very sensitive time in my life walk in, and think 'what a retard' and i am ashamed and my life is ruined. thanks bayley! wear the loving mask, bayley!

We also don't get overly earnest promos about how the fashion police wrote poetry about being wrestlers as kids. They are clearly presented as joke characters, whereas Bayley is honest and hardworking and full of heart but also just happens to be a giant spaz

Yeah, it looks like she's trying to do chain wrestling switches and just sucks at them.

Ahem get it right this forum hates minorities in general, just look at the reaction from PSP management to 'does steroids and injures opponents' Brock Lesnar and 'at least looks the part of a white guy while injuring opponents' Seth Rollins vs. when Jinder Mahal does the same white guy things they do.

Hey now, Dana Brooke might be involved too, so there's a good chance that Alexa might just end up dead instead of just her character.
