I thought Shayna was everything we didn't get out of Ronda without the big name attached to it. And the....questionable.... views

Like others have said, the first round was pretty awesome, but the second round was not. It seems odd that Becky and Ronda never had a PLE match in the second go around after the somewhat controversial finish to the Wrestlemania triple threat main event (which I assume was actually a botch). She should have beat Liv at SummerSlam. She also should have lost to Becky, not Charlotte (multiple times), at some point. it was a botch. Corey pointed it out thinking that it was an angle and then it was never mentioned again (presumably because Corey got bawled out for almost "ruining" the end of the match).

They still should have played off that and had a big Ronda-Becky feud the second go around.

I figured with Ronda leaving right after the match and being Becky's big crowning moment, they didnt want to take away from it by muddying the finish (especially since it was an accident and not planned). no need to turn it into the Starrcade 98 finish/mess if they didnt have to IMO.

She had one of the very best debut matches I can remember. Some of her views and tweets and things like that colored my opinion of what she did at times, but I can't deny that when she had the right dance partner she could keep up. The biggest issue is that by the time the second run came around, her celebrity had faded a bit and she felt like just another member of the roster.
If she truly wants to keep working on the indies, I suspect she could have a fun little run.

Her career felt like it was in reverse. Started like a seasoned pro and ended like she didn't know wtf she was doing.

Aside from being the one who FINALLY gave Stephanie her comeuppance...her run was just OK at best and bad at worst.

Her first run was tremendous. Her MITB match with Nia was shockingly great. Her matches felt important and despite the ridiculous shoehorning of Charlotte into the Main event, the Mania match was a great moment.
Her comeback......was asscheeks. It just never felt like her heart was anywhere in it.

I want her to return wearing a red lucha mask using the name Ronda Rojas.

To echo a lot of other posters her first run was stellar. I still think the "Any ring I step into is mine, I own the ground under my feet..." is an underrated promo, and I was on board with her. She was impressive, exceeded expectations, and felt like a megastar.
Then she came back, just didn't give a shit, and it showed.

She put the long awaited and well deserved hurt on Authority Stephanie. She will forever be my hero.
