Becky's being compared to Nia's multiple injuries? Are we serious right now? Wrestling isn't safe. Did you guys say Charlotte was reckless at Survivor Series? If you don't know the difference between what Becky did and Nia did then there's no helping you.. What's the second injury Nia's caused? I remember the nose, and that's it.

there was a point at which Charlotte was holding on to her arm and I thought that they were going to do another injury angle except it was Charlotte instead of Becky. That actually would have been fine with me as a way to get Charlotte out. For instance, have Becky and Ronda beat the everliving shit add a Charlotte to finally get her ass out of the match. Not sure why they'd want to, given the match finally has any actual intrigue, and it's only giving Becky more fire.

Then she kicked Pat Patterson low, downed some Beckyweisers, and drove her Jameson truck to back to the backstage area.

I don't remember the exact details but there is a list of injuries Nia has been the cause of or aggravated. There's Bayley's shoulder, something with Alexa, something with Sasha and I forget who else. Hopefully someone who remembers more clearly can speak up.

I rarely ever hear specifics, so I wasn't sure. As for the thread in general, this really is a stupid thing to fight about. Yes, Nia gets flack for stuff other people sometimes get a pass on. (That isn't negotiable, that's fact.) Is that unfair? Depends on your level of good will towards her. If you think she's a walking disaster, you're going to hold her accountable for more than if you don't. In either case, calling people apologists is done with, that's name-calling schoolyard bullshit. But also done with is trying to "gotcha!" people. It's not proving a point to people, it's just making things more smug and contentious than they need to be.

It's not proving a point to people, it's just making things more smug and contentious than they need to be. I think part of the reason Nia is called out more than most is partly her prominent position on the roster and perceived carelessness due to the various injuries she's caused. Certainly injuring a red hot Becky did her zero favours but it's similar to Brie Bella where some may feel the flack is too much or too harsh but the expectation is that they should be better at this considering their levels of experience. In Nia's case it may simply be underestimating just how much damage she can do. I'm a heavy and tall guy and there have been times I've underestimated my power so I will give her that. However, the questionable moments from her are too frequent to ignore in my opinion. Her inability to cut a promo does her no favours in my eyes either but she is over. I won't argue that.

Someone answered above, but thanks for the link. Admittedly, this video doesn't do a great job of demonstrating many of the injuries. Arguably the Zelina Vega one is partly on Tamina. In the case of Bayley though there was a moment where she did an elbow drop without even looking to see if Bayley was in position (she wasn't) and it messed up her shoulder more.

from the footage I saw, it appears after the first hit ronda went down to her knees so due to positioning becky wasn't able to swing at ronda's beck (becky was slightly in front of rousey and rousey was facing her) so she aimed for the midsection. then in the middle of the swing ronda ducked her head into the swing and got caught there instead of her midsection. all becky could really do at that point was try to pull the swing.

Riott Squad are such an afterthought though. Just yet another set of NXT Talents, wasted. In this instance, I’m not sure if that’s the case. If WWE wants to build up Rousey on the road to WrestleMania, some midcarders are going to have to be sacrificed. Is it really the time now to put Riott over Rousey when the latter has been established as the current ace of the Raw women?

She was going hard in the paint with those hits with the crutches Got a little reckless and caught Ronda in the head tho but it was an accident
Didn't see it but if she clocked Ronda for real, will everyone who called for the immediate terminations of Nia Jax and Brie Bella be leading the "Ban The Man!" threads? No, because everyone likes Becky, so this'll be justified

Nobody's saying that Riott should've gone over Ronnie, just that it shouldn't have been a minute long squash.

Riott can always be built back up.

Riott can always be built back up. To be fair, I do think there's a way to make Ronda look like a killer and have Ruby look good at the same time.
