If Charlotte wins at SummerSlam. I don’t want to hear or see anyone bitch about Alexa being overpushed. Hell, even at this point, Charlotte’s more overpushed than Alexa. I’m actually shocked that Charlotte didn’t win the first Women’s MITB or the first Women’s Royal Rumble, because for a while, if it was a first, it had to be fuckin’ Charlotte that did it.

I hear ya, Flair is so overpushed, it was making me wanna throw up watching. They treat her like f'n royalty. I will say though that was anyone expecting Becky vs. Carmella to be any good... It does improve with Flair in it but I wouldn't mind seeing, oh idk, Asuka perhaps in there too and let her win the damn thing.
It looked like they are gonna turn Becky, so be it, they seem to love to turn wrestlers the fans like. Probably on the logic of they really like them so if we turn them they'll really dislike them, right, hahaha, total genius stuff, hahaha. The roles should have been reversed with Becky getting her way into the match that Charlotte had set up then finally Flair can go back to being a heel which is what suits her character best. This shades of grey bollocks is tiring. Now we'll have them arguing for the next two weeks but they'll both still be fan favs. |

That match was f'n awesome mind. They f'd up Asuka by having no clue what to do with her afterwards and turned her into a kabuki wannabe. She could do with turning heel. I wasn't thrilled that Asuka sucked up to Charlotte after there match at WM. That's a passing of the torch type thing or good friends gesture not two wrestlers feuding in their prime years. Flair is essentially female equivalent of Roman without the major fan backlash. It's obvious they are looking to make her the greatest of all time female competitor. Blonde, busty, height and the last name Flair. Suits wet dream of the perfect female wrestler. Also helps that Stephanie lives vicariously through her. Has she ever belittled her on screen like all the rest, I can't recall.

WWE wrestler Kane is now an actual mayor in Tennessee
avclub.com by Alex McLevy Aug 3, 2018 It was over a year ago that we first noticed Glenn Jacobs, the WWE star known as Kane (who made his TV debut for the wrestling league as an evil dentist named Isaac Yankem), was running for mayor of Knox County, Tennessee. Well, apparently residents of that county are big fans of mentally disturbed pyromaniacs—or at least a guy who plays one for the camera. Jacobs is officially making a career change. NBC News reports the wrestler turned candidate for elected office has been elected mayor of the third-largest county in Tennessee as of Thursday night. A longtime libertarian who ran as a Republican, the 50-year-old Jacobs crushed his Democratic opponent Linda Haney like she was [insert wrestling analogy of your choice here—The Undertaker on the receiving end of a piledriver, maybe?], and will be sworn in on September 1. As someone who was a resident of Minnesota during Jesse “The Body” Ventura’s tenure as governor, I can attest to there being worse things than having a former wrestling star in office. Of course, Jacobs also appears to be a very genial guy who nonetheless supports Donald Trump while simultaneously condemning politicians who “use their positions to benefit themselves instead of serving the people,” so maybe he’s not the most astute of elected officials. Ergo, he’ll fit right in. |

What a terrible way to debut Ronda wrestling on, Raw. Wrestling Alicia Fox completely exposed the green that's still in, Ronda. You need to only put her in the ring with good workers who know what to do so you don't get a sloppy mess like that. It was clear this was supposed to be Mickie in this position. Ronda vs Alexa should not last any longer than 90 seconds.

They put faith in Fox who everybody knows hasn't progressed her wrestling ability in literally years. Maybe it's time to terminate that contract and use somebody who can actually do what they are supposed to be able to do and do it well. They wanted to protect Ronda by having her face Mickie but she got injured, so then they scrambled to find someone who isn't tied in a feud or isn't buddies with her, so that left the 'how the fuck are they still employed' bunch. I only watched the highlight video on YT but even that was pretty mediocre and I cringed at the mad face and the crappy post match bit, not the desired reaction they wanted, I can take a good guess what the full match was like. Time to sweep it under the rug like they do so often.
