She does not need this accolade. Not this year. Which accolades? Beating Becky or Ronda or being called Ms. Wrestlemania? Beating Becky and Ronda is debatable but as for being called Ms. Wrestlemania, they're already calling her that so she's got that one. They just came out with merch for her. She'll still lose and still be called that especially given HBK's won only 6 WM matches and he's lost 11. Idk what the OP is saying by using that title as for proof that someone wins matches. I don't mind Charlotte being Ms. WrestleMania, but man, they can't give The Queen a better shirt than that?

Damn I got excited and thought this was an early MS paint thread Oh, thought this was going to be an MSPaint WrestleMania thread. Carry on. me too, I was so confused, like it's a little early for that lol Oh, thought this was going to be an MSPaint WrestleMania thread. Carry on. Same, I'm so disappointed. I was hoping to see an MS Paint version of THAT Ronda pic. This isn't a paint thread. Please enjoy this hastily thrown together Ahmed Johnson in LOD shoulder pads from WrestleMania 13:

I am dreading the future of this place when Becky even kind of winds down, because some of you are clutching your pearls over someone who isn't Becky getting a damn nickname. I've said it before but this is a really dangerous mental place to be in and it's really only going to make you f***ing miserable if this is what you're doing when she's on top of the world.

That was crazy. I wonder who will be the "new Becky Lynch" once this whole Becky Lynch thing hits a certain point. Might be Ruby Riott.

It'll be like the AJ Lee Wars all over again, except over a woman over 90% of the board loves. AJ is an apt comparison, but i think with some added factors that really make it an issue. The whole "real women wrestlers" sentiment isn't a thing so much anymore when even the models are being trained to work matches and someone like Mandy Rose can get praise for how well she's developing in-ring; seven years ago Mandy Rose would have been taught three moves and done 'sexy pins' to win matches. It means that Becky stands up for something a little different than just the ideal of womens' wrestling as something to be taken seriously, something more strongly personal and fandom-oriented, the investment in her as a wrestling character acting out more conventional wrestling storylines and having struggles people can believe in. Becky is liked for the real, quirky personality she has, but there's a passion for her as the underdog turned rebel that forms a more fundamental wrestling core, while on-screen AJ's appeal had much less to do with her character because there was little of it there, and she never really had struggles and storylines like that. Also biggest of all is that Becky has an actual antagonist who people already have their own perceptions and ideas of in Charlotte. AJ was just nebulously 'not like other girls', whatever the f*** that means; all of the worry and the tension around Becky has a name and a shape. It makes for a much weirder situation altogether, because the personal fawning-over is only a piece of the puzzle nad the on-screen stuff takes a much greater forefront than it ever did when "who will AJ kiss?" was the story.

I'm still shocked Alexa didn't split the board the way AJ did, but that's a good thing because it shows how far the board has come over the years and it makes the mods' jobs easier. I'm off to go read old AJ Lee threads now!

They will not resist the urge to have Charlotte win at Mania. Becky wins at Raw or Smackdown.

I mean, this is just another way to build Charlotte up for Mania. I get the feeling that the ESPN interview made WWE paranoid that Charlotte didn't have as much to "bring to the table" in this match.
Really, what are some expecting? A big neon light that hangs by the WM sign saying "DON'T WORRY BECKY'S GONNA WIN AT MANIA"?
Live in the suspense, baby... it's all part of the ride.

I was thinking about other people possibly deserving and then it struck me that Trish Stratus only had 4 WM matches and more shockingly Lita only ever had 1! Beth Phoenix is having her 5th this year and most of hers we’re awful multiple women matches They're from an era where Molly Holly had to offer to get her head shaved just to get the women's title on the Wrestlemania card one year. I'm actually not surprised that their numbers are that low.

Eh, it's just a marketing title like calling Michaels Mr Wrestlemania as if that wasn't say Hogan, Austin or Rock.

Mobile Suit WrestleMania
With high expectations, human beings leave Earth to begin a new life in space colonies. However, the WCW gains great military powers, and soon seizes control of one wrestling organization after another in the name of Sports and Entertainment. The year is After Colony 1999. Operation Women's Main Event. In a move to counter the WCW's tyranny, rebel citizens of certain companies scheme to bring new arsenals to the WWE Universe, disguising them as shooting stars. However, the WCW headquarters catches on to this operation.

I mean, I know handwringing about every little thing WWE does, is kinda what we do here. But this really is nothing to get up in arms about. It’s just a nickname. Mania 35 is going to end with Becky standing tall. And if it doesn’t, we at least get to itch and moan. Righteous indignation, with fleeting moments of joy. That’whay being a WWE fan is.
