Sasha beats Bliss for the title. She then turns to redo the NXT feud with Bayley only this time it fails because of how badly Bayley's been booked, Sasha's not allowed to be as vicious as she was in NXT, and the matches won't be agented as well. Alexa turns because no one gives a drat about any of the remaining faces, and the circle is complete.

kinetic77 posted:I'm pretty sure that's exactly what he's done. NXT Bayley vs WWE Bayley are not the same. See also Sami Zayn, American Alpha, Enzo and Cass, all the cruiser weights, etc. I mean, say what you want about Roman's character and booking, 85% of it has been terrible, but at the very least they got the kids 'n soccer moms portion of it right. It's the easiest section of the fanbase to get over with, they like the person that wins a lot and looks strong when they do it. Bayley was tailor-made for that bit of the fanbase, and they screwed her up so much the kids were apparently cheering Bliss during their kendo stick match. Character that's basically female Cena doesn't have a clean singles win on the main roster in like 7 months, gets the title handed to her by her friend, really only has one major clean successful defense of it at Mania in a multi match, then gets made to look like a schmuck in her first major defense feud and promptly loses it in her hometown THEN gets destroyed in the rematch where she refuses to go  .That's like the complete opposite way to book someone to get over with their intended demographic, or ANY wrestling demo really.

Roman's a good wrestler, it's just consistently hilarious how hard WWE tries to push him as a powerhouse when he's more like a striker, and seeing him visibly strain to do power moves while Cole screams "The POWER of Roman Reigns!" will never not be funny. I can't understand how Vince & HHH see how much he struggles cutting promos and connecting with the crowd verbally in a way that he doesn't come off as an rear end in a top hat heel and they don't hire a good acting teacher for him, especially if they're planning on him being the ace of the company for the next several years. As the heir to Cena, Rock, Austin, Michaels, Hogan that poo poo's kind of important. Bret was the last sorta face of the company who couldn't talk very well, and that was over 20 years ago, and it was one of the things that probably held him back from being on top longer...and even HE was better than Reigns at it!
