Props to Mandy for the sell and bump too but if Stark can ever get a character she's going to be over big

She'll need something as a backup in case she gets someone she can't lift (though she does have a powerhouse woman look), but it is a good finish.
And until it's officially name (unless it has been and I've missed it), I'm calling it Stark Contrast.

I really like her as a wrestler. They could give her a hat, that might be what she needs.

Might be the best finisher in the game. Absolutely brutal. And people take it like champs.

Zoey Stark is gender-swapped (and race-swapped) Apollo Crews. Clearly she can go in-ring, but there's not much else there. And because of this weird thing of "Being boring is worse than being bad", she gets a lot of hate for it.

Zoey’s finisher gets so many wrestler points for me. A great finisher can be so huge for someone.

I really hope Zoey vs Mandy main events next week because: 1. Bron vs JD sucks 2. I can't imagine them ending Mandy's title reign without a huge celebration with confetti and everything, which would have to close the show. If it doesn't main event Mandy is 100% retaining in my mind.

Zoey Stark still sucks to me. Her and Jade Cargill are on my shit list. Zoey has no character. Jade is still a channel changer for me because this long winning streak is pointless as f**k especially cause there looks like no one who can beat her and even though she is training to be better in the ring I still don't find anything she does interesting. Like for f**k sake.

Mandy Rose has been on fire since coming to NXT. I hate that she's a heel again, but I love her!

Suits her better both in ring (relies mainly on power moves and submissions which is more conducive for a heel) and character wise (good at playing the arrogant b***h). As a face she just always came off as bland. The team with Dana wasn't good or interesting and the short bob style hair cut didn't work for her. It just made her look older and made her come off more like a hot soccer Mom and less of a star then she does as long haired heel Mandy.

The thing about just being 'a good wrestler' is that if that's the case, you have to be really good to still stand out. And fortunately, based on what she's shown so far, Zoey is good enough to stand out.

Did Mandy whack her head on the back of the title? The belt looked like it was right in the landing zone

I’ve been a huge fan of hers since she debuted in NXT and always found it surprising that people weren’t into her. Similar energy in-ring to watching Takeshita in AEW.

Mandy took it like a champ. Toxic Attraction should really be taking over Smackdown now.
