She sucks lol. This storyline's turned into something that it wasn't supposed to be all because Ronda got her feelings hurt and now this whole thing's worse than predicted. This sucks lol. My favorite thing ever is how the audience's feelings to Ronda basically depend on how long it takes them to realize "ohhh, so that's why people didn't like her very much a few years ago" Like, the more Ronda gets to be Ronda, the more everyone hates her. It's like a slow descent too lol. Each week that goes by we see comments about Ronda change and seeing the different threads about her, what she's doing to this feud, it's a lot to take in. At this point Ronda's actions have turned this feud from "Becky's rise" and even from "Charlotte's in the match too" too "Ronda's f***ing this up and let's see how bad she gets."

I can't wait until I'm playing MK11 and get a Flawless Victory on Sonya and she responds by storming off before the Fatality talking about how video games are overpriced bullshit anyway.

This was always going to end badly. The MMA fans they hoped she would bring in were always just going to laugh at her for having to do the "fake" stuff, the wrestling fans were always going to turn on her for having everything handed to her, and she was always going to handle it really poorly when the inevitable backlash came. It MIGHT have worked if Becky hadn't gotten as hot as she did and they were able to do a straight up Ronda vs. heel Charlotte like their original plan was but once The Man stuff started that was out the window. I think the end game was always having Ronda's involvement make the first ever women's main event at Mania seem even more important but who knows now. It will be interesting to look back in a few years and wonder if this was all worth it.

Has there ever been anyone else like Ronda whose whole WWE run is just a consistent downward slope? It's kind of fascinating.

RAW starts off with a shot of Vince McMahon in his actual office.
Vince: "Ronda Rousey has made some very unsettling comments on an Internet video most recently. However, we can't fire her since those who bought WrestleMania tickets are expecting to see Ronda Rousey on the card. Therefore, we must proceed with caution and continue on with her contract as planned. We will take full precautions to ensure that Ronda Rousey doesn't do anything she'll regret."
(camera switches to Stephanie's legit personal office)
Stephanie: "I know we had our storylines and things like that on our television shows, but this is stuff you can't really prepare for. My name is Stephanie McMahon-Levesque, I am a mother of three from Connecticut and I'm just trying to do my job here to entertain you guys. I really love you all and I care about putting the best product on TV for the WWE. What Ronda Rousey has done is beyond what we do here at WWE, and I will do all I can to ensure that the show goes on as planned."
(plays a Youtube video from Becky in her hotel room)
Becky: "I just hope I can put on a good WrestleMania main event match. This has gotten out of hand."
(plays Youtube video from Charlotte in her car)
Charlotte: "I worked too hard for this for someone to screw it up now. My dad has been looking forward to my main event at WrestleMania (sobbing) and now the match might be cancelled. I wanted to show my dad."

I feel like almost every wrestling company that goes under has a moment where the focus shifts from entertaining the fans to working the fans.
Working the fans is important in getting them invested but it needs to be entertaining for that to truly happen. The shift to working the fans for the sake of working the fans is what caused WCW and TNA to struggle and once you've started to go the route of "this is real, unlike that other shit" then you end up slowly conditioning the fans that the other shit doesn't matter. Then eventually nothing truly matters. WWE is a stronger brand than WCW or TNA so they will survive where they died but all history seems to point towards this being the wrong way to go.

Charlotte: "I worked too hard for this for someone to screw it up now. My dad has been looking forward to my main event at WrestleMania (sobbing) and now the match might be cancelled. I wanted to show my dad." Due to illness, the part of Charlotte Flair this evening will be played by The Miz. He's such a versatile A-lister!

I'm not gonna go all the way to hate, because she's not worth that amount of emotional investment, but I'm pretty much done with her. She can't handle the business, and that's even with a more relaxed locker room.

As much as I was dreading her debut, I have to give the devil its due with the match at last year's WrestleMania, with how everyone played their role perfectly. Then they followed that up with a storyline where Natalya was her best friend. Then she won the RAW Women's Championship. Then came Survivor Series. And look where we are now.

Work or shoot this is dumb as hell. Who needs internal logic and consistency?

I preferred Ronda when her idea of promos was to accidentally blurt out all the kinky shit she wants to do with Becky. This shit is so cringey it makes that Austin 3:16 in comparison. "Wrestling isn't real, it's fake. But what is real is this 13-inch black strap-on..."
