Glad she has a new theme and changed up her look somewhat. The more she distances herself from her jackass dad, the better.

What’s the name of the match where the title can change multi times? Just do one of those and get Charlotte to 17 and get it over with already. Are you thinking of a scramble match? Which, historically, gave us this surprising moment:

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 LOL

Sort of like how the Royal Rumble rules are hella inconsistent year-to-year because.

One of the rare instances where I'm somewhat ok with Charlotte winning the title even though we all know she's being fast tracked to 16. At least there's a silver lining with the belt taken off of Ronda. If you count the Divas and NXT Womens Championships, she's already there.

When it comes to Charlotte it's at the point where you can't even get mad at it anymore. It just it what is, they aren't going book her in any other way, and we still got probably another five years of her so it isn't worth getting up in arms about it anymore. And I guess at least this time she is actually needed with how dire Smackdown's women's division is.
I do find it funny though a lot of people even her haters are happy about it just because Ronda had a few crappy matches. If anything it's a lateral move. Either being champion at this point sucks and just makes it more glaring how bad they have been about creating new stars. I'm sure in a month they'll all be complaining about Charlotte again and what the belt off too. Be careful what you wish for indeed.

I read this first when I was like half asleep and thought you specifically described her gear as different from her dad and cackled because agreed Ric Flair definitely wasn't wearing that.

Her divas title was turned I to the women's title, so it could be argued that that was one reign. Same with when she and Becky switched shows. That's semantics though and that many reigns in that short of time is insane even if some of them were transitional.

She beat Ric's "record" so she can retire now, right?

Yeah you’ve gone from Ronda beating everyone, to Charlotte beating everyone. And I bet many of those Cheering for thus now because it’s Ronda, will be complaining about it once she starts tearing through the other women instead.

I do think, however, for whoever ends up beating Charlotte, it'll be a bigger deal than them beating Ronda.

I still say that the most egregious bit of Charlotte booking was ending Asuka’s undefeated streak and then Asuka gets on the mic and says how Charlotte was ready for Asuka or whatever it was and then Cena goes running by in search of the Undertaker or whatever was going on GTFO with that. lol

As for the Asuka streak, it's got to be seen in context. Carmella cashed in on Charlotte only two days later. Had Asuka won at Mania, her streak would have very likely ended via Carmella. In those circumstances, I think they made the right choice, especially as they were careful to give both Charlotte and Ronda major wins ahead of what was then being thought of as a potential WM 35 main event.
