Can we try and forget about this segment? It dethroned "This Is Your Life Bayley" as worst segment and took it's lunch money.
It came off as transphobic, homophobic, and just brain dead. The crowd did not react at all to it, and most crowds tend to react to horrible segments by essentially hijacking the broadcast. Here... they just sat on their hands like they just saw Springtime for Hitler the very first time. Even when Lashley came out, they didn't cheer for him, and Albany as far as I know is a more casual friendly market.
Another aspect that bothered me was them using sibling abuse (a form of domestic violence) as both a vain attempt at heel heat but also for bad jokes.
This is clearly a company that either is doing this stuff as petty retribution or do not know what the hell to do with a guy like Bobby Lashley.
It made me angry... But now I feel very sad about being a wrestling fan, because as another user put it, THIS is the kind of segment a non wrestling fan will end up watching with you.

I can't think of another segment that makes death look quite so appealing.

I've never been happier to miss anything ever.
I'm annoyed and disappointed, but not at all shocked.

This company spouts inclusion and BE A STAR and WOMENS EVOLUTION and proceeds to have a segment where three dudes in drag get their ass kicked
Jesus Christ.

I honestly couldn't contemplate a segment more painful than a contract signing involving Stephanie McMahon, Ronda Rousey and Nia Jax, but Sami had his working pants on tonight and he still couldn't get shit out of that segment.

I never thought I'd say this, but I think I'm legitimately done as a wrestling fan.
I can't understand how I mentally got here, but the more I dissect this, the more upset I get. Like... I'm almost crying right now because of this stupid segment.

I didn't mention it in the RAW thread mostly because I didn't get the chance, but this was exactly what I was afraid was going to happen.

Is the uncut version out there anywhere yet? I need to see this future Gooker nominee.

As bad as this segment was, I didnt think it was emotionally wrecking, I just thought it was yet another stupid Vince produced segment, one of the worst in recent memory for sure

Are you saying that you didn't cry when Lashley punched the helmet to signify that he's working to overcome the trauma of his childhood?

Like, I avoided Old Day & This Is Your Life, so they didn't faze me at all, but for some reason, this broke me down. The segment was gonna suck regardless, but the easiest solution here was bring out a few women (actual women) who might be cameos as the wives of the crew at Gorilla Position, have Zayn introduce them and embrace being a slimy dirtbag, and then Lashley comes out to beat him up. They went the worst way possible. So... I think I'll be staying at Off Topic & Sports for a while.

I’m gonna have to later anyway to write up the entry for the Golden Snowcones. And yes, I know they’re not until Christmas, but I’m fairly confident that this won’t be topped.

They put a lot of effort into making the fans forget about that Bayley/Alexa segment and may just succeed. I don't they nearly made anyone cry during that segment.
