No shitpost vibes with this one because she is coming back from a super painful condition and I wish her the best cause it seems like she is really going through it right now.
Raquel is seemingly perfectly built for modern day WWE and can do some great stuff in the ring but last night, that crowd straight up did NOT like her one bit. That is a crowd that knows she just returned and wasn't having a great time but for whatever reason yeah, I'd go as far as to say they kinda hated her?
It could be an one off because I do remember plenty of times where some crowds loved her. Maybe it is because the rest of the competitors were so popular. Liv of all people who the crowd loves got booed when she eliminated Tiffy and reactions seemed a bit more jumbled than usual but I felt pretty bad for Raquel. Nothing has really changed with her gimmick and there's just not much to her besides her in ring work. She seems stuck.
What do you think of Raquel's crowd reactions? Do you think there should be some changes? If so, what are your ideas?

Do you think there should be some changes? If so, what are your ideas? Make her someone's Diesel. She can occasionally have matches because her condition might flare up. So the pressure isn't there to always perform. She pretty much might have reached her ceiling on the main roster with others from NXT coming up after her with higher ceilings. She will probably never get a singles world title on the main roster and that is perfectly fine. She can be a attraction match now, not a full timer.

The way some people talk about her you'd think she's totally useless, but I don't agree, she's at least solid in the ring. I think the best use of her is as the muscle for a Carmella or Chelsea Green type heel, and she also would've been perfect as a member of Legado if they didn't already have the GOAT La Madrina.

Chelesa fires Piper, which turns her face. Piper sets her eyes on Nia as the next feud. Meanwhile Raquel comes out and saves Chelsea. Powerbombs Piper and there's our female Diesel and Shawn in 2024!

I think she sucks. Her theme sucks. Her smile sucks. Her back sucks. And now her attire sucks, too.
But I think a lot of it is her actual booking. She's decent in the ring, though she's not as strong as WWE likes to make out.

Didn't wake up early for the show and only fast forwarded for highlighs. Was she boo'd or just met with silence?

Put her back in the cowgirl outfit, complete with the eyepatch (she usually had a little cutout in it so she could see through it). Give her the bullrope and everything, make her female Stan Hansen.

She got a weak reaction for her entrance; received "bullshit" chants when she kicked out of the triple stack pin from Bianca, Becky & Liv; and was serenaded with the "Na Na Na Na" song after she got eliminated

I thought it was hilarious when she came out of her pod smiling.

This still remains Raquel's best run

If Ripley is going to eventually go full babyface and leave Judgment Day (or it eventually breaks up), put Dominik with Rodriguez and have him try and make her his new Mami.

I'm not exactly a fan but there is something there that can work, they just need to give her something more interesting to latch onto than, "Smiles, possesses back muscles."

Send her back to NXT and do the only thing she is good at it , being the muscle to someone more talented than she is.
Let her be the Nappa to evil bratty Roxxy.
