How can you call Rousey out for being unsafe but be completely oblivious to how terribly unsafe you yourself are? She should've been let go when she almost ruined Bayley in NXT and did the exact same thing to Charlotte on RAW.

A LOT of analysts are saying she just needs more time in developmental. No. She's gotten worse with time, and she's 36. There's not enough upside there to take on the risk of letting her injure more wrestlers. And it's not ok to let her injure a bunch of developmental performers - who are less prepared to avoid injuries. Imo, she should find a new occupation. Otherwise, she's almost sure to cripple someone. Not to mention what keeping her does to their insurance rates.

"Jinder Mahal was set to feud with Drew McIntyre before injury"

Dang it. Would've enjoyed that feud. Made perfect sense for it to happen too.

I don't usually do this but I turned it off in the 3rd hour I completely lost interest. And next week I will
watch again like I do every week and probably complain about it on the internet like the sucker/sheep I am.

There's too much Charlotte on tv, but holy **** that match against Asuka was marvelous.

Charlotte just beat the Tag Team Champions, SD Women's Champion & Raw Women's Champion on the same show, just to compensate her loss from Takeover in which she didn't even take the pin. That's just insane.
She's one of the greatest, but this is too much.

Meh, she beat Osuka via outside interference in a tremendous match, and the other match was just a contrived tag team match. I think I can handle that. :nod:

Yeah, I could feel Edge's anger at the manipulating Christian. Those 2 kinda work well together.

But what Christian said at the beginning was true.

eventually asuka gets the clean middle of the ring win to solidify her run. Wwe has no babyface women at the moment. Asuka is the only viable choice seeing as they clearly have lost faith in Ripley just as fast as her run began.

I like the little Twitter back and forth between Ciampa and Orton. It doesn't look like a work but it's always a possibility. Ciampa straight up threatened to walk if he was moved to Smackdown or RAW but Orton coming to NXT for a program with Ciampa? Yes, please.

Heyman out as lead creative on RAW, Pritchard now in charge of RAW and SmackDown. Gross. I'm guessing we'll see a lot of the guys that were getting air time, fall back down the card into nothing again.

Yes, this was the plan.
But since the dismissal of Heyman, most of the storylines could have changes. we will see...

Heyman was pushing all young talent. It wasn't a fit there. Within a few weeks he is ic champion on smackdown. That type of opportunity wouldn't have been there on raw.
