Just imagine if Riddle and Orton walked out because they were going to have matches with Roman Reigns but they wanted to defend the tag titles against Carillo and Garza.

It doesn't surprise me that it sounds like a majority of the locker room thought it was unprofessional of them to bail during the show.

Remember Gail Kim did this in the middle of a battle royale and I don't think she even caught this level of supposed flack. Sometimes and especially in WWE nowadays you got those that are just gonna put up with it and ride it out and then there is Sasha by proxy Naomi who finally reach their boiling point with the bs. She caught a lot of flack. That still routinely comes up as a dis on her when it gets mentioned. However, she was 100% correct too. 1) She did exactly what they told her to do: get in and get out within the first minute. 2) They hired her explicitly because she was a draw for TNA and the core of the knockouts division and promised her she would be the nucleus of a reinvigorated women's division in WWE and that was a flagrant lie. They never used her for anything meaningful in her entire run. She was specifically meaningless in that battle royal and treated it as such, and good for her. WWE and Vince specifically lie to people so often that we sort of normalise it and think people shouldn't expect them to actually do what they say they'll do, but that's a really messed up way to look at things and it's not surprising there are people who will not put up with it because they don't feel they need WWE. |

I feel like I would sympathize more with Sasha Banks if this wasn't her go to move any time something didn't go her way, and she didn't have a clearly visible and memetic "I'm jobbing" face.

My favorite type of egg is over easy. But only for the runny gold to dip/mix with the rest of the breakfast. The egg whites make me nauseous. Another texture thing.
I’ll only eat scrambled eggs in a breakfast burrito, and even then the rest of the burrito has to be bomb to make me overlook the eggs.

Has the job face been a thing any time recently? I’m pretty sure there’s been multiple times where the PLE Thread is like “LOL JOB FACE!” then she goes and wins. |

Preheat skillet medium heat, butter, chilled veggies, cook 30 seconds. Remove from heat, crack in the egg mix quickly for 30 seconds, add cheese, salsa verde and mix. Warm your tortilla. Build: tortilla, Cholula, egg mix, roll it up.... and off you go! BOOM your new favourite breakfast has arrived. I am staking my claim as FANS god of chefs!  |

I may be a damn weirdo, but I just love a bowl of soggy cereal. You gotta let it marinate a bit, soak up the soft, squishy goodness. I also like vanilla almond milk, just so even more people can question my life choices. Vanilla almond milk is way better than actual milk. How exactly do you milk an almond? I call fake news. |

Their cafe served goose eggs. Those things were freaking ginormous. One yolk was like 2 or 2 1/2 of a chicken egg. I’d get them to rustle up a couple of those with a few slices of this thick brown bread and cut away the whites and just make a mess with that runny yellow all over the toast. It was awesome. They also had Turkish coffee that was so strong that like a couple of sips and I’d be bouncing off the walls. |

Listen, the best way to have an egg is a soft scramble.
you crack 3-4 eggs in a bowl, whisk 'em, add your salt and pepper, and.. this is important.. some heavy cream.
cook them LOW. AND. SLOW. and keep stirring until they start making cottage cheese curd-looking lumps. Spread that on some toast and you have an amazing-ass breakfast.

I'm making assumptions here but your job was probably a job that has a high turnover rate, or an organization that doesn't value it's workers. So just like WWE, then! |

As people pointed out, she was smiling after losing to Bianca. |

To be blunt, they wouldn't have to, because if Orton decided he wanted to have a tag team feud rather than a meaningless singles match, they would accomodate him and probably praise him for being selfless. |

Sasha comes across as a massive mark in all this.
Someone needs to tell this woman that this is all a performance and not an actual sport. There's no "winners and losers"... You win when you put on a good performance and do what you were supposed to do.
Imagine being an actor and refusing to get killed off in a TV show. Even if the script and the storyline called for it. That's what this essentially is.
As someone who's been behind the scenes in a wrestling environment, the general consensus is "If you see these titles as actual achievements and not props to further storyline and ultimately make us all more money, you're a mark."

"Talk To Me" is the superior track on the album...heck, Naked City is also better than Shandi (Unmasked is an under-rated classic) "Tomorrow" is a really kick-ass power pop tune. "Tomorrow" would have been a huge hit if it was done by anyone else. |

Admittedly I'm being hyperbolic, but this isn't the first time that she's done something like this, not to mention the meme had to start somewhere. Yes it's been exaggerated, but the meme isn't totally without merit. I also agree that WWE's plan in this case was stupid, but it is also true this wouldn't be the first time she's demonstrated attitude problems. Both things can be true. |

Because would anyone believe they were going to win? not likely and with the supposed plans for both titles going into and through the summer we know about they would not factor into anything other than these one off matches they would lose. 2. You treat the womens tag champs as complete fodder just diminishing what Sasha and Naomi have been trying to do to bring some meaning back to the titles. Atleast if they defend the tag titles there is a better chance at creating something with some substance with DuoDrop and Nikkeh and it would get the latter onto the ppv. |

Sasha vs Ronda might be a main event. Team bad vs Nikki and Doudrop is a preshow level match |
