I think that Emma was not really given the same chances after that weird shoplifting thing happened. She also probably suffered from bad timing, having her first WWE run occurring before the 'Women's Revolution'(or whatever you want to call it) then having a major injury soon after her second began and the mass of effort they put into Emmalina being just nothing.
I recall saying that I wasn't sure how capable Summer was because she wasn't wrestling enough. Definitely could work as a valet, but that role isn't really in WWE right now aside from Lana(who's working for Tamina of all people). The whole Primetime Players breakup still makes no sense to me, but D-Young clearly got the worse end of it. A solid worker who could have continued to be a depth face for heels to squash or to be like the random 6th person left in a Battle Royal who gets to survive the first commercial break and get tossed right after it. |

You put Alicia Fox in there with Asuka and it would be 50 times worse... She obviously schmoozed somebody.
I bet Neville is irate seeing these releases. |

I don't recall Reigns speaking one word in that "Table For 3" promo.

I watched a full Raw for the first time in a shortish while, it had to be the one when Stephanie came back didn't it... ffs Making Kurt look like a jabrone, what was he suppose to do, fight off 20 something guys? Most interesting bit was them trying to be spooky with Bryan and Kane. Can't believe they let Bryan get beat up, it made me get my hopes up that he is in the Survivor Series SmackDown team which I can't imagine will happen but that's their fault for planting it those flying rat fuckers. Not enjoying the push they are giving Kane. Feels stale already, why can't he have change his look to the old Kane where he actually looked the part. His music now is shittier and his attire looks cheap ass compared to the late 90s. Trashman Braun was unfortunately bad. How could he look clean if he's been swimming in trash for 8 days... he should of looked like Harper used to lol. He should of grabbed Miz and threw him in the garbage truck. |

I'm with Mordecay that I'm a bit surprised Young got released, since he's black and gay that's 2 minorities the WWE was keeping on board in one... I guess sucking in the ring and sucking on the mic was too much though and he was finally released. You know what that means: Heath Slater is the last original Nexus member still as an active wrestler on the roster. Who saw that coming?
I'm not surprised about Summer, but I am disappointed. I liked her a lot and she was probably the best actress they had on the entire roster. From everything I've heard she was a super sweet girl, too. Hopefully she finds a career (actress/model) that appreciates her more. Emma is the most shocking to me. She had it all; super hot, amazing wrestler, decent promo, good character, locker room leader from what I've heard, veteran. She was just on a PPV and everything! I heard it's because the writers didn't like that she wouldn't commit to that Emmalina character, to which I say it's such petty bullshit. Paige can be a drug addict, have a thug boyfriend, use the women's title like a sex toy but all is fine. But Emma doesn't want to play a DOA gimmick and she gets fired for it? That whole segment was campy. I think it was meant to be that way. Maybe in time for Halloween? Did anyone notice it wasn't even the same garbage truck? lol so much for continuity. He rose out of the ashes like a B-movie killer that wouldn't die, gave chase, annihilated the group before separating one of them and overkilling poor Curtis Axel. I think next week he'll probably do the same to Bo and finally kill the Miz last. |

Finally, SmackDown has a WWE Champion worth watching again! The mediocre reign of the Jobbaraja has come to an end!!!

Indeed. Now we just need to keep our fingers crossed and hop they don't switch the belt back before Survivor Series and, if they don't, that hey don't utterly bury Styles when he fights Brock because they do like protecting Brock's championship runs but on the other hand AJ works every week unless funky shit happens to him of course.
Also .. lets hope they get the idea to move Bálor to Smackdown Live, I think he'd do amazing there considering they don't have shit for him to do on Raw. He'd certainly mesh better with the competition there in size alone. |

I see it as a temporary win to shut everyone up about how boring the match with Brock sounded, then have him lose the belt back to Jinder during the India tour, and get those big Indian headlines that they crave. It's all a load of bollocks.

Maybe but I can't see that working out that well considering they'll be gearing up for the Royal Rumble build up by then and rapid switches back and forth with belts have always killed champions fast. They may put the belt back on Jinder before the Royal Rumble, if they do it at all, but lets hope not. Lets hope they keep the belt on AJ, it'd be nice considering it'd be two years since his debut at the 2016 RR.

I would have loved to see Brock destroy Jobber Jinder. Just beat him to a pulp and Jinder getting in 0 offense.
