I'm thinking about how hot Becky was around November, the idea of women main eventing WM and then we get a few days before Fastlane where shit really feels like, how did they screw up so much? How? It's baffling the amount of angles that fall down the cliff when they start doing too much with them. I don't even think the Bryan/Authority stuff before WM30 was even this wild. We just wanted Bryan in that spot and then it gradually happened a more natural way because they had no choice. In this case they know we want it but they keep trying to turn it into something that's not it. Becky is still hot, despite the WWE's incompetence. She was white hot at the Royal Rumble, and still gets big pops when she appears. But crowds are naturally getting tired of her doing the same thing - appear with a limp, swing crutches, leave. Ronda beating her down and turning heel looked like an injection of new energy but... then this happened.

This stupid shit with her knee, the suspension and Stephanie cutting 15 minute promos is going to slow anyone down, no matter how popular. WWE is overthinking shit and adding too many layers to a story that doesn't need them because that's just what they do.

But crowds are naturally getting tired of her doing the same thing - appear with a limp, swing crutches, leave. Ronda beating her down and turning heel looked like an injection of new energy but... then this happened. She's still hot but not like she was due to her being in this bad angle. Before everything she was in was straight fire (no pun) but since this Ronda stuff took off, it's been trash. I figured it would be bad based on Ronda's booking, I didn't think Ronda's attitude, social media antics and vlogs would be the issue but alas, here we are. Ronda's damaging everyone in this feud and we need to correct it because yeah, Ronda's going to take off for a bit but that doesn't mean she needs to damage those she's working with prior to that. Another sad part of this feud is that the McMahons are actually doing less damage than Ronda Rousey, the Women's Champion. Just think about that. That's NUTS. We have a new meter of horribly with wrestling these days. Ronda's right there with Russo. She's right there now.

I think it's pretty inarguable this feud is nowhere near as hot as it was even just a few weeks ago. Crowds still chant and cheer for Becky, absolutely, but her reactions don't seem quite as strong as they were, and Stephanie had to practically beg the crowd to be enthused by the idea of making the triple threat match official.

True. Doesn't help that she hasn't been able to do what she does best and that's cut promos. I think she's had maybe a few lines in the last three weeks.

As lame as the social media stjuff is, I think the stuff on TV is still main contributor to the failings of this feud. The neverending knee injury and McMahon interjections are a total f***ing snooze.

The neverending knee injury and McMahon interjections are a total f***ing snooze. I agree. It is definitely the fault of the TV stuff going off the rails and being a dumpster fire. Just now you have Ronda pissing on that dumpster fire and saying fire isn't real at the same time.

Here’s what needs to happen: - At Fastlane, we redo the fimgerpoke of doom. Becky pins Charlotte. And they reveal that they’re a lesbian couple. They’ve been plotting revenge ever since Ronda banged Tic Flair at Mania 34. - On Raw, Ronda says she knew the whole time. And, in a preemptive strike, it was she who got Alicia Fox drunk. Thereby getting Arn Anderson, who’s revealed as Becky’s biological father, fired. - Some time laget, Becky and Charlotte beat down Ronda. Becky hits Ronda with her bad knee, smiles, reveals her knee is fine, and is in fact Weapon X. - At Mania, during the main event, CM PHBK parachutes in, and says he’s going to main event Mania one way or the other, and reveals he’s strapped with dynamite. Colt Canama rushes to the ring to plead with Punk. They realize they’re each other’s one true love. AJ Lee has no idea because she’s playing the Witcher 3 for the ninth time. I love the idea that Ric Flair is actually a giant tick in a man costume. And the fact that this entire post was written while drunk. I love that Cm Punk and HBK mastered the fusion dance, just in time!

No. No. Goddammnit man don't start on this "Oh but if Daniel Bryan did this we'd all love it". Worked shoots rarely work, but when they do get praise it's for the veneer of believability; even the Summer of Punk was divisive between people who feel it walked the line and never went out of its way to actually scream it was fake by framing those issues in a kayfabe way, while others still think nah it wasn't a good idea. Worked shoots happen all the f***ing time and they are notoriously poorly received around these parts, your post is completely off the mark. Like f***, Triple H just had a promo on Monday where he said "Richard Fleihr" over and over and it's been mercilessly shit on all week Even with Punk, who was a so-called "IWC God," how often does that "This is Phil Brooks talking to Paul Levesque" line get made fun of? Which I dont get, because I acknowledge it IS breaking 4th and cringey, but also, in the wwe universe (not.. the fans. Their world) do I believe someone is legitimately named CM Punk? It could be seen as a "this isnt your buddy thats speaking" type line. Like if you got a good friend who calls you "bro" in the truly endearing way, but you're in midst of something and you say "_____ to ____, we dont feel like brothers". Formal first and last names are rarely used amongst friends/coworkers. Usually some shorthand or nickname. edit: sorry for 3 posts!

I am beginning to have a hard time thinking it'll be "main eventing" Mania in the second to last spot...

Rate of things we're going to end up with the Mania main event being a five minute completely meaningless match between Roman Reigns and Baron Corbin.

I don’t Think this match should close the show anymore. This thing is going to be dragging it’s mostly dead body across the finish line by the time we get to Mania. There is another month left and this shit honestly doesn’t make a lick of sense. Like, what is even going on in this storyline?
Let the boy DBry or Big Dave close this shit out.
