Anyone think they really missed out by not airing this as soon as it was actually taped, I feel the hype has died down immensely now, I had forgotten what date its suppose to air and it took me about 10 minutes to even find this thread!

Eh they did the same thing with the CWC and the Hype pretty much ignited back up when it started airing.

With the amount of BS comments Im seeing about Piper Niven's weight and people shitting all over her for it unnecessarily, I hope she wrecks house in this tournament to piss those idiots off.

Seriously sick of fat shaming in wrestling, if they're a good worker, they're a good worker, you're pathetically low balling at this point, especially since some people try to compare her to a Tumblr User or an "SJW" based solely off of how she looks. It's just so infuriating to see because Piper's awesome, so I hope she shines and shuts them up.

Reminds me of when Nia Jax posted a pic of her in a bikini on Instagram, even brought up her body image issues and worked up the courage to post it.

The comments were predictably infuriatingly insulting to her.

There's been so many awful, disgusting comments about the competitors' appearances with Piper getting probably the most unnecessary garbage. I hope she gets signed and wins plenty of titles to piss off the sewer mutants.

The Mae Young Classic will be uploaded onto the WWE Network at 9am Eastern Time tomorrow, so 8am for Central, 6am for the West Coast, and 2pm for the UK.

Unfortunately, two of the leading sewer mutants are the owner of the company and his producer/head ass kisser.

Cant remember when WWE uploaded the CWC, but it was definitely a weekly thing. Are they just uploading all of Round One at once here?

They're putting four episodes up at once, so dumping round by round definitely seems to be the idea here.

Looks like it being:

This week: Round 1
Next week: Round 2/Quarter Finals/Semi Finals
Week after that: Final (live special after SmackDown)

On the one hand, the slap-fighting over whether something is "shaming" or not drives me crazy.

On the other, I really don't much care what a wrestler looks like (yes, I know that I bust on Pete Dunne) if I otherwise like them for one reason or another (I don't like Pete Dunne, mostly because I just can't ever get behind the "This person acts like a complete dickbag (even if it's only kayfabe), but everybody loves them anyway" types.).

With me, I either connect with someone or I don't.

Shit, I'm one of the few people here who doesn't hate Nia Jax.

They were literally saying that because she was fat she could not be taken seriously as a wrestler and realistically could not work in this business, and her opportunity was basically a handout of pure pity

It was 100% Shaming in this case.

Also Dunne is just extremely talented, and if you can play a great bastard type, people like those. This is entertainment first. People like a good villain, they understand they're the bad guy, but they can still love and respect what they themselves bring to a table.

Also I don't hate Nia but she needed another year in the PC, she just did, especially showing how much she's been rope a dope'd booking wise, trying to be built as a monster and losing every important match ever.

Putting it to the board... Do you guys want a new thread solely for discussion of the matches (a new thread for each batch of weekly uploads) or do you want to keep it all in this thread?

Personally, I'd be down for a batch-based kind of deal, especially so that if someone falls behind they don't have to wade into a thread to get spoiled for down the line stuff, like if they only get to round one next week when everyone is already talking semi-finals.

I personally dont mind either way, I would say we could just keep this all purpose. But then we'd have to take the Spoiler Tag out of the Title is all. Since at that point it would be ongoing commentary from posters as they watch the episodes.

That works too, as I said I see the benefit of both, I dont think there's a wrong answer.

Yeah, this is what I'd prefer as well. With separate threads, if somebody is a bit behind they can still join in the discussion without the risk of accidentally getting the whole tourney spoiled for them.

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

OK, new threads it is.
