I really like Carmella as a person, and I absolutely think she's *trying* out there. Admittedly, her character is fine for the most part.
I don't want her fired or whatever.
That said, she's ass in the ring. Sure, she's trying, but her offense looks like trash. The Ellsworth stuff was played out and moronic the first go-round and now they've ramped it up a few notches.
The fact they're having Asuka get outsmarted by those to jackasses is obnixous and not even in a "I want the heel to lose" kind of way. This reign is terrible and the faster the get the title off of her, the better

They sure do book their way around her actually wrestling, don't they?

She's gotten worse since becoming champion. Her promos are worse, her wrestling is still bad and she's become the third wheel in a feud with Asuka and Ellsworth. I don't know why she's champion now but I'm assuming it's for Becky to take the belt from her. If Becky takes the belt we're good but otherwise I'm not sure what's going on here. I don't get why she's champion right now.
And I always gotta bring up the poster boy for bad world champions these days, Jinder Mahal. Jinder had a sort of energy to him, Jinder actually elevated from his previous level when he was world champion, he fell into the roll and although he wasn't amazing, the guy was clearly giving his all and he improved a bit.
Carmella I feel she's the same as she was except she has a title now. I'm not feeling it.

Look, I get Carmella is supposed to be an slimy heel, but good god they spent an entire match booking a circus to hide the fact that she is garbage in the ring AND made Asuka look like the biggest idiot on the planet. I'm genuinely curious how Asuka went undefeated considering she's this stupid.
I'm honestly trying to figure out a worse match from WWE or any company than that match.

I like her. The booking is not great but she seems to be a transitional champ at this point.

Let him dangle there like a jackass. Meanhile, go get Carmella, toss her in and lock in the Asukalock. Get the belt, THEN beat Ellsworth senseless |

Well at least she heats up that garbage fresh to order?
Some assholes would just serve you cold garbage. I'm looking at you, Jason Jordan.

For real, just the Charlotte match should have been enough to kill any chance of her ever having a push ever again.

I would have had her drop last night but at least on my TV she entertains me. I think dragging out Asuka win (if that is the plan) is not a good decision. |

Even with her many flaws (as her mic work isn't near good enough to get past her wretched ringwork), I could handle it if the crowd got into her feuds and cared, but nope. She has this pattern where she'll get heat for about a week (after winning the MITB, or winning the title, or getting Ellsworth back), but she can't sustain it whatsoever.

They need to build stars up and all, but the bit's worn out. She's had time to rise to the occasion, and she frankly hasn't.
I'm not saying they should fire her or anything, but wrap this title experiment up and move her into a feud with someone else, preferably with someone with more than 2-3 minutes of material carrying the belt.

Love her character work
Hate that her booking comes at the expense of the entire division

Well, she is hot. I’ll give her that much credit.

She's got decent enough mannerisms to build good hype videos. At the end of the day, that's all that really seems to matter.
