People already covered McCool, but also Torie Wilson, that Little Boy Robot from NXT, and Mandy Rose just off the top. Mandy Rose is 5'4. as was Jamie Keyes... and neither of them got anything resembling a push.

Lacey Evans is getting the early Rainmaker Okada push, I see.

I feel I need to speak up for the tall, athletic blondes of the world. For far to long have they been opressed. And I will stand for it.

I can't say I like her but there's no denying Lacey has a presence, and she's committed to her character. I'll give her a chance.

Well they did close to the same segment on SmackDown, except with the caveat of "SELL THE PUNCH THIS TIME, DAMMIT".
Something we have to keep in mind that hasn't been mentioned in the thread yet in regards to Evans being an underwhelming first challenger... Money In The Bank is the next major show. That card will likely include a ladder match for the women, so for that you need six to eight talents. From there, The IIconics could possibly be defending the tag belts, so that could be another four talents occupied. They've just done a match with Rousey, and she's hurt and taking leave anyway, so that's another talent unavailable. You've done matches with Flair to death for now, so there's another talent scratched. So before you start, you're down, what, anywhere between seven to 14 prospective challengers for Lynch to defend against at Money In The Bank. And she's gonna need a body count, so to speak, to give her championship reign some meat to it, so why not start with Evans?

That's a really good point, though it seems like something that they should be prepared for. I remember back when Daniel Bryan won his title the Shield were tying up with Evolution and he ended up feuding with Kane because that was kinda the only person left. It was something of a comedown after the way Mania finished with the entire crowd chanting yes. They know their schedule a year in advance and I get WM week is a slog to get through but this is the kind of thing they should have in mind.
Although in this case, it's possible that they weren't expecting Ronda's injury but it seems like this Lacey thing was planned.

The Man versus someone who prides herself on being a classy lady (to the point her theme music is pretty much about that) is an instant feud with potential, so it's not like Becky is slumming it out against a rando.

The problem is, for those who haven't seen NXT Lacey is a rando. We've seen a lacklustre performance in the rumble and a bunch of walking. That's it. She's pretty much the definition of rando at this point.

I mean I'll still take it over Becky vs. Charlotte again, even though I love those two's chemistry.

It was really good seeing Lacey get her ass kicked so I guess all her trolling is working somewhat.
