Nia/Alexa suffered from the usual Alexa must dominate most of the match BS which hurt its quality but what the hell was Mella/Charlotte. Mella plays her character down to a T and she's very obnoxious and annoying as she should be they were just so slow and the finish was weak

Tbf it was not really the cream of the crop involved in these matches.

Within 2 months of breaking the streak, Charlotte was basically squashed by Mella and lost clean.

I mean, she got almost no offense en route to losing completely clean. About the only measure by which it wasn't a squash is that it was ten minutes instead of two and by that logic Cena / Lesnar wasn't a squash.

Well 3 of the weakest workers on the roster were in matches. That’ll kill the quality quick.

I'm assuming you missed the first like 2 minutes of the match where she rag dolled Carmella all over the ring?

Why the crap was Alexa dominating Nia? Does she seriously only know how to wrestle one kind of match? It was bad enough when Alexa was dominating Charlotte.

Surprised to hear Nia/Alexa 2 wasn't a squash. I got not having one at Mania because Cena/Taker was on the card, but it really should have been a four minute match. Not surprised it didn't go too well as a ten minute match though, that's the opposite of booking to their strengths.

I really liked her matches with Sasha, her match with Mickie at TLC and there were a couple good ones with Becky on SDL, but her booking on Raw is just the shits.

Her and Sasha has had some pretty good matches. Maybe it's because they don't like each other and do give each other reciepts but yeah her matches can be hit and miss They are booking her like they did Charlotte and even with Charlottes size and ability that was bad

If memory serves me correctly, it was also that way with AJ Lee. I don't blame people for being tired of that, it's been a constant on Raw for a while now.

They only know how to book the women as "evil bitch" or "she's so crazy" Alexa probably needs to fade into the background for a while as she's been the most prominent champion since the brand split. Sadly, they don't know how to book women outside of the title but assuming they bring in the women's tag belts best believe she will be apart of that as well

Not surprised it didn't go too well as a ten minute match though, that's the opposite of booking to their strengths. It's not surprising though. WWE love to book needlessly competitive matches for the sake of filling time, especially with the women, as if they fear they'd be criticized on Twitter if the women's matches are too short. It doesn't matter if it fits the story or not. Emma dominated Asuka. Twice. Then she was released days later. That's the worst example of it.
