And her first loss comes after she's already had a super tough match the same night. That's just idiotic. It will be literal decades before there is a cornucopia of absolute terrible bullshit that even comes close to this. In the end she doesn't really even put anybody else over. She put Statlander over, and the crowd went nuts when she won. In the end she has no one but herself to blame, as she accepted the title match. Her own hubris cost her the streak she built up, I don't see anything wrong with that, that is classic heel stuff where they screw themselves over As for there needing to be literal decades before we see something worse than this? Tyrus was a world champion this year, sorry, but Jade's title reign wasn't great, but it wasn't a total outright disaster... there's been worse imo.

Honestly if Jade is going on a break she should've just taken the belt with her. I don't think anyone would've even noticed.

I know I'm on an island here but I didn't hate it. Jade has asked for a second challenger before and this time, her arrogance was her undoing. That makes sense to me.
Would I have preferred Statlander to come out and challenge Jade to match that would happen at a later date? Yeah, probably. But it was a hot angle on the night and I'm sure Kris will be an excellent TBS champ.
I'm now going to bow out of this thread because I'm pretty certain the discussion is going to get really toxic, really quickly. It's just pro wrestling, after all.

Man I can't believe a belt that had no value and a reign that we had 16 pages arguing that was the worst ever is over; it should have went on for another 6 months...but seriously, these streaks never end well. I think of Goldberg's streak ending in a taser, and Charlotte beating Asuka at Wrestlemania, which was a disappointment. It was always going to end poorly, that's how they go.

After she steamrolls everyone forever, she only loses because of an inoromptu match after already having a hard fought match.
Statlander looks like a weasel.
Stupid

Stupid Jade asked for the second match, something she's done before, Jade accepted the match, Jade lost Statlander literally answered the challenge she herself laid out. It's not like a heel Money in the Bank cash-in, the heel got overconfident and paid for it.

Kris can now have workhorse matches with the belt and get it over in a way Jade couldn't in ring I get we've mocked this belt endlessly, but we could at the very least give it a single shred of a chance now that it has a new owner and Jade has no danger of an immediate rematch.

Stupid Jade has been saying “it’s on my time, not on your time” and then she goes around and accepts Stats challenge after her hardest fight?! Bullshit booking. Whoever booked this shit needs to be talked to

I'm very interested to see how TK books Jade moving forward. She is taking time off How would they pull off a jade face turn?

Jade got that belt and streak off her. How she lost it is such a small part, its where they go from here.

Whoever booked this shit needs to be talked to She has, for the last few weeks, accepted multiple challengers. This is the one where she felt like no one was left, and looked like she wanted to wipe out Statlander, she failed We'd be complaining just as much I feel like if they drug this out for another month or more tbh, ending the title reign in a big "HOLY SHIT" moment where the crowd was behind it I think is the right move, especially given Jade's been more over than a lot of her challengers before this.

How would they pull off a jade face turn? Given the crowd likes her? It probably would simply take confronting a heel or heels when she returned. Maybe vignettes on top of it?

This was the same sht when Hook beat Ricky for the FTW title, and no one complained there.

Disagree. You’ve dragged this story along for over a year now and this is the payoff? Stats glorious return is undermined. I would have much rather she come back and straight up beat Jade. Not “Jade made a dumb ass mistake” even though she isn’t a dumbass

Not “Jade made a dumb ass mistake” even though she isn’t a dumbass Jade's a cocky heel and always has been, she got too big for her britches and lost, I also disagree with your assessment and I popped along with the crowd, I thought it was a perfect moment and it ended a reign everyone said needed to end I think Kris will be fine from here on and Jade getting a refresh break is also very needed. I hope from here on we see the TBS Title have nothing but bangers. We can disagree about it, it's fine, in the end I think if Statlander has a good reign, it'll be what really matters, and I really hope she does.
