WWE dubs over the name "Steve" "Austin" with "Sasha" and "Naomi". The rest of the burial stays.

For some reason, I don't think it was just creative differences. Feels like there's some other things we don't know. Sure, it could be that but they've dealt with that for years in this company. Something else must have been said to have Naomi (the person who was going to win) also leave with Sasha. They're the tag champions, this is wild.
It's just weird to me.

"The last thing you want to do is screw over the paying audience and Sasha and Naomi did that. You need to blame them for walking out on us."

Naomi is the one that was slated to win, and yet she's leaving alongside Sasha. Something doesn't add up.

They're gonna air the supposed rolling around crying tantrum from a few years ago (or recreate it with wrestlers with obscured faces and the incredible graphic prowess of the CGI technology in entrances)

Honestly? After the last few years? The Saudi Plane incident? The giant COVID Outbreaks they had? The giant "Budget Cuts" releases? NXT's complete overhaul? I am absolutely shocked that someone didn't do this sooner. I just am. Some wrestlers just bit the bullet, waited out contracts, or asked for a release. Sasha and Naomi dropped their shit on a desk and peaced the f*** out because they were simply tired of it... and these were two women who were pushed and featured pretty damn strongly, even recently as champions.
The thing that's just as interesting about this story is the windfall it could cause within the company tbh. Idk if anyone else will do this, but it shows that some wrestlers can only take so much bullshit... and the fallout for WWE even if it's just these two that leave, never come back, and go to other wrestling companies, is a huge deal to me. Because now the options for wrestling are there, where they also weren't a few years ago tbh.

Yeah, even that statement that was put out makes very little sense to me. This whole situation is off.

I'm not on WWE's side but if they walked out right before the show started, that's just terrible and it f***s over other performers.

Yea Naomi walking out with her IMO throws out that this is simply just some creative difference there is more to this.

According to the WWE statement, they had 8 hours to rehearse the match, so they couldn't have walked out right before the show started. It sounds like this was an immediate reaction to whatever plans they were told.

They just couldn't handle the idea of Lashley no-selling being thrown through a cage.

Something is going to have to play itself out Really the only one who gets the benefit of doubt is Naomi but even then when the rumors about this situation happened with Sasha and Bayley, Bayley rep got tarnished for a bit as well so I can see Naomi taking a hit Just got to wait and see but no really wins tho assuming this is real I think this is the last time WWE lets Sasha slide with this

You know WWE has an interesting choice here, IMO: 1) Hold their deals, preventing them from moving on to Hollywood or AEW or Japan, and "teach" the talent that they are in control. 2) Let them go and show that in their minds at least that no one is bigger than WWE, be thankful you work here. Plus they'd get out from those contracts.
