She’s always been boring. Her promo videos hyping her NXT debut made her look like someone from Mortal Kombat, or maybe a female version of the Undertaker.
Then she debuts. Looks great, good in the ring..and she’s generic smiley girl. What a wasted opportunity.

I'd have her as a genuine werewolf who gains extra strength and no selling ability during the full moon. Opponents would be scared of facing her during that time and complain that her beast blood gives her an unfair advantage. She'd also be invulnerable to weapons and foreign objects unless they were made of pure silver and forged during lunar eclipses.

She was amazing in NXT. Then she comes to Raw with bright red hair... ugh. They always make these little “tweaks” to NXT characters that are already established and over. Ascension had a whole “Supernatural” type thing going on and were tearing it up in NXT... they come to Raw and they’re wearing face paint looking like two LOD cosplayer geeks. Authors of Pain were legit one of the best, most over acts in NXT with Paul Ellering... just look at that pop on their debut. Then boom, it didn’t even take them ONE WEEK to throw it all out the window, have them ditch Ellering and then start hanging out with a bloke half their size which quite frankly, looks absolutely ridiculous and makes them look like two goobers. On top of that, they’re just “AOP” now... no badass Call of Duty style gear, no Paul Ellering, just two blokes with vests who hang out with a guy who pisses himself. Ugh. Don’t get me started on “The IIconics”, Tyler Breeze, The Revival, The Vaudevillains... the list goes on. The sooner HHH takes over, the better. While I agree with the overall message,I dont see any difference between Ember in NXT and main roster besides booked less. She smiles more and has cartoony bright red hair. That’s enough for me. She has one of the best entrances and looks in the company. She should be like Michonne from The Walking Dead, a silent badass killer type... but instead she’s this generic smiling “happy to be here” face. Only she looks like she’s from Mortal Kombat... for a while. that’s it. I can’t even blame her cause I’m 99% sure this is all Vince and Dunn’s doing. “Smile more damn it!”

I don't know how much you can blame her for being on Main Event and in multi person tag matches all year. Who from Raw's women's division has a story at any given time except Ronda and her challenger? Sasha and Bayley are always featured, as is Bliss. Riot Squad had a feud with Natalya that led to a PPV match as well.

Bayley and Sasha are always fighting with the riott squad for ...reasons? I dont think there is even one. at least Natalya vs Ruby had a reason. But Ruby just decided to be mean to Natalya...because i guess? Is it really a story if everything is half assed? The only people with Consistent stories that seem to have any effort into it are Ronda,Alexa and Nia

There is a reason why she got a thread dedicated to people trying to anwser the question of WHAT IS HER CHARACTER.
I sum her up as
She is a very good wrestler....and so are alot of other people on the roster.

Ifs pretty insane that she got called up after Mania and still hasn’t had a single feud. I mean... No Way Jose had a feud. Sanity had a feud.
Ember came up unfortunately in the shadow of Rousey debuting, Nia and Alexa being a program forced upon us, and the neverending series between Sasha/Bayley and the Riott Squad.

Nah, Ember is the shit. She's got great babyface fire and likability along with a really fun moveset; she could easily be one of the most popular women in the company if they wanted her to be. I'm rooting for her.

I love her theme song, I'm just waiting for a reason to care about her.

Has she done anything werewolf or vampire related yet? ...don't you mean 'gothic-lifestyle-related' yet?

She's a testament to how bad NXT is as a developmental. Like, day one NXT Ember Moon is basically the exact same as right now Ember Moon, and that's kinda f***ed.

Considering where she took the "Moon" name from (if that pose with her fingers in front of her eyes) is any indication, and the red eyes, she would have been more of a rabbit than a wolf (though obviously a wolf would be much cooler, and still would have fit) anyway... That aside, I'm still a fan of hers, and will still be a fan no matter how much WWE doesn't give a shit about putting any effort into her booking.

I remember before an NXT Takeover, WWE showed a clip of her entering the arena with her family. All mysticism was thrown out the window for me.
Imagine WWE showing Taker entering the arena with his family wearing sweatpants & flip-flops.

I think her look and gimmick are confused and contradictory and stupid.
I didn't like her in NXT and definitely don't on Raw.

Who from Raw's women's division has a story at any given time except Ronda and her challenger? Sasha and Bayley are always featured, as is Bliss. Riot Squad had a feud with Natalya that led to a PPV match as well. But, at the same time, most of those feuds are seriously half assed compared to the woman’s title feuds. You have the Riott Squad dispising Sasha and Bayley for no reason. Legitimately no reason. At least on SDL there was some direction with them, but on Raw? Nothing. Which is a shame since you have three woman who deserve time to be a threat. You could argue that there was something with Ruby/Nattie but that was cobbled up due to Natalya owning a pair of her dad’s glasses. Bliss is featured, yes, but only in weirdly planned talking segments that feature a stale heel character and a babyface taking a few jabs at her. This’ll be the fourth talk show segment she’s been booked in in the last two months. If they gave her some free reign, maybe it’d go well, but it’s more less the same plot line. I’m happy these women are featured, but it feels like most are just fighting the same people and or being given poor scripts and plot line. When the Riott Squad first came, they wanted to dominate Charlotte and the SDL women’s title. Now they’re just sort of there.

The problem with this era of NXT callups is that their entrance is their entire character pretty much.
