I mean, it would've been nice to have Shayna win, and have some nice recognition for her hometown Sioux Falls (which I live in).
But I guess all we get is the joke of R-Truth calling Suplex City "Sioux Falls City."
And this is why I don't watch anymore. Because F*** YOU, VINCE.

She won because they had to make sure Becky's opponent was some monster so it had to be the winner of the Rumble. I mean, could it have been anyone else other than Charlotte? Absolutely. Shayna was right there. Still, this whole thing goes back to last year's WM. Reports came out that said even in that previous WM's build they were setting up Becky/Charlotte at this year's WM and unlike last year they haven't gotten off track. It's still where they've planned it to be.
But what I'm interested in is how we're supposed to believe that Charlotte has a chance of facing Becky because from what we've seen Becky's beaten Charlotte each and every time since that heel turn sans that one time last year when Charlotte won but that's ONLY after Becky just had that Lacey match, took Lacey's finisher and then was blindsided by Charlotte. It takes so much to take Becky down.
Like, Charlotte has absolutely zero chance of winning this right now. The only way that it makes sense is that Becky goes into the match injured but her even winning looks more like bullshit that way given she'll be injured and still win the match.
There's no way this looks good with Becky as the face and Charlotte as the potential heel. Hell, maybe a double turn would work but then again Becky's too popular for that to happen.

The unification proposal, guessing it's more likely we get a ____ Two Belts situation, because the alternative is Fox or USA being like, "Sure, delete the title on our show, that in no way is a thumb in our eye", which, yeah, not likely happening.

One other point is that it makes the Survivor Series ending even more of a Hogan must pose moment.

Becky also beat her twice clean on TV beforehand. once in 2017 and in 2018. It’s an incredibly lopsided feud that somehow still makes fans paranoid every time. |

I guess if being generous it’s a testament to their ability to have fans suspend their disbelief, but it really makes no sense if you look closer at the booking rather than smark anxieties. |

If they try to do the you are the chosen one story with Charlotte I will be tight Charlotte is legit the underdog in this match as she hasn't beaten Becky in who knows how long |

I just can't see the fans ever cheering Charlotte over Becky even with Charlotte in the underdog role.

If not that then maybe SDL and face Bayley again since she never got her revenge on her, we'll see. |

IMO the 4H are progressively becoming a bigger and bigger detriment to the main roster womens division because there is nothing left of it ...except the 4H. NXT has it so right in that they have an heirarchy but no on woman or women really over power the rest , all get their own feuds so it isn't just a recycling of challengers to a singular champion with no one looking better. idk what the hell the main roster womens roster is gonna look like post mania but that shit is on serious life support. All 4HW except maybe Sasha need to take a big step back.No one really looks like a good challenge on RAW and SD Meanwhile, you can put the title on Dakota Kai tomorrow and no one would blink an eye In a way, I think Sasha is now in the same role Becky was in a year and a half ago. Seen as someone that could explode if WWE went all in on her and despite being a 4 time champion, never got a real run with the title, and it's not a situation where she got hurt each time and had to drop the title. She just got short reigns just because. |

Completely ruined the ending to an otherwise fantastic match. Talk about shitting the bed.

Yeah right now Sasha can argue that she has never been given her chance despite being up there popularity wise and she damn sure hasn't had the run the other 3 women has gotten with the title |

She might have fallen into unrehabilitable (that a word? Probably not) territory for me. My reaction to her winning ANYTHING now is 'Meh. Another notch on Charlotte's belt. Shocking'. And if she loses, who cares, you know another headline moment for her is just around the corner.
It makes the character dull as dishwater.

2018: Asuka 2019: Becky Lynch 2020: Charlotte Flair Put the house on Dana Brooke next year, kids. Well way I look at it she has five more chances since just signed for 5 years and unless she's injured she's going to be in it every year until then since they have to put everyone on the roster in it no matter how insignificant you are since they have so few women. Well unless your the IIconics anyways. |

Yeah even though I think Sasha should be used a bit better I don't think it's a fair comparison as she has been injury prone and there's also been rumblings about attitude issues when it comes to her. Along with having all the intangibles needed to be a star (look, promos, workrate) Becky's someone you never really hear anything bad about personality wise and she's been pretty durable for the most part with only one injury in her four years plus on the main roster with the one being the ridiculous Nia Jax incident which was something that should've been completely avoidable. She also was out for a month in 2016 for reasons that were never disclosed but if I remember the speculation was that it was because of some kind of medical condition and nothing to do with injury. There was no reason at all to why they weren't using her better and it wasn't until she caught fire to the point where they couldn't ignore via their own incompetence no less that they finally pulled the trigger on her. |
