My stance has always been on man on women violence that it can be ok as long as it's in a very unrealistic scenario. If Roman Reigns climbed up a ladder and hit a fallen Steph with a frog splash off the top of the ladder I think that will be ok because it's clearly not something that will come up in a domestic violence incident.
As long as they avoid realistic movements in domestic violence like punching,grabbing,kicking,using weapons I think they can get away with some very sporadic use of it in a big main event angle.

I think its because of Mattel. They don't want man on woman violence They can probably get away with Roman spearing Steph after Hunter/Vince move out of the way at the last second. They got away with Steph getting KO'd during that big Championship Ascension segment.

I can agree with that stance. Wrestling moves look fake enough that doing things like a frogsplash from a man to a woman doesn't set off any bells. If Reigns straight up punched her in the face and KO'd her, I'd have an issue with it. I still feel uncomfortable watching inter-gender wrestling, though. It suspends too much disbelief for me to begin with, and I have no interest in seeing a man throw a punch at a woman, which inevitably always happens. It's hard to watch.

It should be noted that Raw still ended with Vince & Steph getting the last laugh on Reigns.

Just spear her and get it over with. What WWE is all of a sudden above violence toward women? Drives me nuts watching some historically SLEAZY company ran by the sleazy Mcmahon family acting all "holier than thou" after all the crap they have done the last 20 plus years I think its because of Mattel. They don't want man on woman violence They should bypass that by having Roman declare himself to be non-binary.

Honestly, that's as close as it's gonna get to her "getting her comeuppance", because they're not gonna let a guy hit her & she's certainly not gonna let a diva get the best of her.

Vince did punch out the third ref with one hit so he's hardly helpless. Plus Steph wasn't physically assaulted. I honestly don't think it was particularly heelish of Reigns considering the crap he's had to endure from this family.
As for the 'assets' they're made of silicone so they probably don't shift around a whole lot.

The character has relentlessly abused power for years. I'd honestly be fine with a one sided mauling on par with Lesnar vs Cena at Summerslam with someone like Nia Jax just pummelling her. She's a dick. She deserves it.

beating up Vince will NEVER be a heel move.

The one thing I took away from that is the fact Stephanie is 40 (well next year she is) jesus that makes me feel old too and where does the time go, she was like 22 when she debuted on TV!

I still think it's this weird place where I don't think Stephanie should be taking any spears or anything from dudes that she is literally no physical threat towards. At least Vince looked like he could be a physical threat to Austin.
You know, one of those many women wrestlers she towers over in her unnecessarily tall heels could in fact kick the living shit out of her and not have it come off as quite so bad...but what am I saying? Anything Stephanie McMahon should surely be only for main event angles, not in some angle that'd be wasted on the Divas.
After all when has women's wrestling ever been a main event angle in the WWE?
...but whatever, maybe I'm just jerking off. My gut tells me if they actually did care enough to seriously put Stephanie in any angle involving the other women, she'd just be even more protected than she is now and any narrative crafted in the women's division would break under the weight of her alpha bullshit.

That dastardly Roman Reigns, beating up women and the elderly.

I haven't watched Raw yet, but I can say that only judging from the Bret Hart match at Wrestlemania, Vince has already passed the age where it's gone from cathartic to watch him take a beatdown to very sad and uncomfortable.

There were a few audible boos after Reigns punched Vince.
Which was kinda weird... since you know Vince was being an asshole the entire match.
