I’m suggesting that in this era, there’s a vocal group of ‘smart’ fans who are suspicious of anyone they think WWE is too obviously behind, and that Becky’s done well keeping them on side as well as the broader audience. Yea let’s stop that she’s nice excuse. I’m pretty sure Roman is nice as well. In fact, if real life mattered, the fact Roman came back from cancer for the 2nd to entertain the fans should make him a babyface for life and universally cheered but the fact he’s about to get a push is getting him booed again How is it an excuse? I'd honestly think it'd be a good thing that she's managed to stay this popular considering how notoriously flippant and fickle wrestling fans are and how they'll go from loving you to loathing you in the blink of an eye.

It is an excuse because a lot of wrestlers is nice as I said and that is not a big reason behind their push. As I just said with the Roman example It is really simple, fans like having Becky on top and their is nothing wrong with that. However, for me she is beyond stale at this point and hopefully this big headed nature she has is leading to a downfall and her finding herself after Mania

I'm sort of amused, even subtly from backstage interviews, that they're going with Becky being anti-authority and not accepting her requests or holding her down.
Like, look, I get that it was the reason why Austin worked so well but...Austin actually was screwed over by authority. Countless times. Right down to his last days (even if some of those were his own fault). But, you'd actually have to have management against you for management to be against you. The only time that happened, they didn't even explain.
We still don't know why Vince wanted to screw Becky over so much, for example.

In one week she will say the company is trying to protect her and she's a fighter which makes for a good babyface character and one that makes sense for her However, when they start that she's anti authority in the fact she's going rogue, it comes across as corny

I guess Austin was an exception but you could argue Vince still reluctantly had to make money from the guy even though he wanted to kill him (the basis for the entire feud after all).

Well see despite pushing her as god tier the past year plus they initially didn’t want to make her Thanos with all the Infinity stones strong so clearly they kept her down

Vince actually said as much in a promo when asked why he didn’t just fire Austin, mentioning that he makes him money.

Like, the beauty of the Austin/McMahon feud was that Vince was trying to get him on his side because he was making him money. When he basically didn't accept joining him, he was going to use his drawing power to make a new, handpicked star. It's one of the underappreciated aspects of the storyline that even WWE's completely forgotten about with each incarnation of it.

Despite strong showings, Galactus is a Jobber to The Stars. Need to put over a cosmic threat? Have 'em snack up Galen of Taa.

Marvel Zombies made him look like a full clown lol On a side note, DCeased is probably what Marvel Zombies always wanted to be but never really had the guts to go, especially considering it genuinely feels like everything is f***ed over there.

Yea, DCeased actually felt f****ed up like there is no hope Marvel Zombies was good for a one off before they actually had to make a story and couldn't

It's hard being the man. To be so beloved and beautiful all while carrying the company on her shoulders. She wants to lose but it's just so darn hard when you're so good. Ohohohoho

That goat jacket is stupid. I don't mind it, only if she starts being insufferable about how good she is

It is likely a combination of going back to something that worked in the past but being so lazy and bad at writing that they went from point A to point M without explaining anything in between.

That goat jacket is stupid. You've made your dislike for Becky perfectly clear in the past, you'll think anything regarding her is stupid because you don't like her.

Difference between bragging and cocky She's been bragging about who she is and what she has done since the beginning. She has literally just been Conor McGregor lite without crossing over in being an insufferable dick
