Brian Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 18, 2017 -> 08:58 PM) The tease of Ellsworth holding the Briefcase was the most interesting thing involving the women's division in years It was stupid and set the division back. I like Bennett but not sure what this persona is and looks all about Maria. Great power ballad theme though.

I mean, why would you push Lynch or Flair when the crowd actually wants that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with tag titles. Best part was AJ vs Shinsuke. Crowd was hot for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Yeah another terrible decision to have the women's MITB scarred by having a man get the briefcase... Literally, many were joking about this a month ago and wwe decides to do this. Don't like either MITB winner, but I also do not hate either character. Their future depends on the booking 100% tho (corbin and Carmella) and unfortunately, that is where I have 0 faith in WWE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, why would you push Lynch or Flair when the crowd actually wants that? That's why I am not a fan of MITB matches, at least how they book it. Heels win 80% of the time. I don't care for Corbin on the mic or as a character, Carmella could have potential to be a good heel, but with all the Ellsworth stuff I just can't take her seriously. Please do not let Lana wrestle another match, it was also. After a good year for women's wrestling last year, most of the matches this year has been lackluster. The only other match I saw was the WWE Championship match, I thought the match was better than last time, but the finish was weak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 I'm starting to think having the entire tag division on one show and all the women on the other is the way to go. Maybe I'm alone. I don't have a problem with Carmella having the briefcase. I think she has improved greatly and needed it to get to that next step. It was like, "Women can't climb that high so let's have a man go get it and give it to one of them!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what bothered me the most -- yes, let's book a historic FIRST EVER *** WOMENS *** money in the bank match, and have a man determine the outcome.

It was like, "Women can't climb that high so let's have a man go get it and give it to one of them!" I'd be down with that. I especially think there aren't enough talent warrant two women's divisions. I mean I like the four horse women and Alexa, but rest of the talents are not established or they aren't good enough workers to carry a division (I'm looking at you Naomi and Carmella). It'd be better to have them all on one show and build up low card, mid card, and main event type feuds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 A tag division built around Usos, New Day, Revival, Hardy's, Shesaro, Enzo/Kass, Club, Alpha, Breezango is solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2nd_city_saint787 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Kenny Omega is a wrestling god. Realllly hope he comes to WWE at some point soon. If he does, I really wanna see a Omega/Styles/Balor feud over the club. Well, actually make the club a thing first, and make an actually stable.....Then maybe have the 2 losers join forces creating a new club, and then have some stable wars.

Brian Posted July 3, 2017 Author Share Posted July 3, 2017 I don't know if Omega could last on a WWE schedule. Ha He's so balls to the wall and sells everything like death. I wouldn't want him to break. Couldn't avoid spoilers for last nights show. Will still watch Fri. Was hoping for an Omega/Sabre final in US tourney.

Not same company as when Punk n Joe n DB n others. And I'll never be a fan of Chris Hero. Sorry Edited July 8, 2017 by Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
