So f***ing happy she's back. And so happy she's taken the belt away from the transphobic conspiracy theory idiot. Ronda LOUSEY is more like it.

Really cool moment. Say what you will about Charlotte but at least she will put on good to great matches. Ronda has been pretty terrible since her return.
The funniest thing I saw was Tom from Cultaholic saying Charlotte didn't get the reaction wwe hoped, it wasn't that loud and people are tired of her. Like did we watch the same thing? Crowd went f***ing wild lmao

If you want to fix that division, I’m not sure why anyone would think “Charlotte beats everyone” is the way to do it?
The reason why so many people groaned at this, is that it feels like the same thing we’ve been getting for SEVEN YEARS now.
It makes Sasha deciding to leave feel even more wise as well honestly.

This is a complete lateral move honestly; Charlotte's a better worker than Ronda, but the former's booking is so repetitive and there's been little effort to ever freshen her up that all the division's really done is trade an inconsistent wrestler for stagnant one.

I felt bad for Raquel. Like I’m not a huge fan of her’s. But she has managed To get two good matches out of this version of Ronda.
But not only did she lose, then she was completely tossed aside after that. I mean she VANISHED into the void quick once Charlotte came out. Like they were done with her so go away so we can get back to Charlotte.
It feels like most people will remember the Charlotte thing more than the match itself.

I actually like Charlotte more than most and clearly she has insane star power, but I'm SO rooting for Sasha/Mercedes to succeed wherever she ends up when I see stuff like this

That was probably Raquel's best showing so hopefully that is noticed and she can try to build upon it and isn't just relegated to nothing duty in the near future.

Im in if they give her a face run where they tone down "THE QUEEN!" nonsense and just let her go in the ring.

I know Ronda was awful and there needed to be a change but ffs why Charlotte flair. The moment I soured on Charlotte flair was the build up to mania and the triple threat. I know it was booked that way but it did feel like she was being shoehorned into things. And there was the belt exchange issue which didn’t paint her at all well but confirmed that it’s all about her. She’s near to her dads number of title reigns. She’s not far off him in marriages and she hasn’t yet had any financial issues but she’s young. Christ, guys, you can call Charlotte's booking bad or say you don't enjoy her as a performer without ragging on her for divorces or plastic surgery. If she's personally done something that makes it tough for you to support her (ala Ronda and her conspiracy nonsense from awhile back) I get it, but there's no need for this stuff. Co-signed.

She is 100 percent a natural heel so a babyface run is just not something id be in to at all. The problem is that there really is no babyface woman on the roster not named Becky or Bianca that is any match for her at all so you have to turn someone like Ronda face just to have her feud with someone who is on her level.

Such childish shit to take out frustrations of someone and attaching their real life stuff to it It's not cute or funny

Raquel is someone who continues to improve every year. Her championship run in NXT was a hiccup as they didn't really do any adjustments to her and ran their head into a wall like they did with Kross but she is someone you can put the title on But she isn't Iyo so the hating on her will come if she does win

But the way she just, disappeared quickly after Charlotte came out was not a great look. And they’ve dropped the ball pretty hard with Liv since she lost the title as well. So we’ll see.

Her character remains unacceptable. At least Big Mami Cool with a trenchcoat and motorcycle was kind of trying to be cool. Now it’s just “ ” and back muscles and I hate it.

That whole thing felt like "in on the joke" booking.
I respect the hell out of it, actually.

Yea, her character work has been non-existent Unfortunately, she probably won't get any type of character until she turns heel
