Vince should of never left the announcers table
That was bizarre. Yes. They decided to no sell it all for some reason.

I think you can watch it on iOS if you download Chrome, might even be able to Cast it.

It still never clicked to me at that moment. 8 and dumb.
I've only ever played MGS3. Got to that bit, killed Ocelot and solved the future. Took the disc out and went on to the next game.

Given the history of relationships in the wrasslin' industry, I wouldn't count those chickens before they hatch.
I was half-tempted to watch Holy Foley in the run-up to its premiere. Then I found out the clown-guy was a major part of it.

He isn't all that major in it.
He's in it. That's major enough for me.

The Undertaker's debut was the end of kayfabe for me, a year or so later going to a house show and watching guys sell strikes that were a mile away from making contact buried any sense of reality.
Stephanie, Shane? Are they no longer McMahons?

Also, at Destruction in Kobe last night the crowd seems to have really tapered off on Yoshi-Hashi. For an underdog, his selling and facial emotes are nonexistent. Which reaffirms to me that they should have sacrificed the jobber for Sanada to just straight up kill him off tv for months and establish Sanada as LIJ's 'heavy' because putting Yoshi-Hashi over him now looks like the most short-term booking.
He just went back to being Okada's little buddy in tags.

Lol! I feel sorry for the guy a little bit but he's the one who tries to get himself over as a fucking clown who really isn't a clown.

Best part during Holey Foley was when Noelle was getting training from Sasha and Becky and just because Noelle was smiling too much Sasha out of nowhere just went like "quit smiling, we're not Diva's, we're woman wrestlers."

That seems to be a consistent criticism from everyone considering how the last season of Tough Enough went.

I've noticed Sasha brings it up a lot. Whether during interviews, backstage promos or in-ring promos. It's like Raw is still going on and on about the impact of the Diva's Revolution without actually really doing much to progress from such, but Smackdown is actually just going forward as women's wrestling without having Becky Lynch or Nikki Bella hammering it in every five seconds of how women can do anything. Smackdown is show, Raw is tell.

Is that a ban or just juniored?

Do a 450 and the crowd will care
They really dropped the ball with hyping up that match (and the division). Hopefully they can go over with wrestling alone but initially that match will have no heat.

Its gonna be awkward when Kendrick wins the title from someone who has never been on RAW
It always seemed like it's a real sore spot for Sasha, whereas Becky and the other women have moved on. Nothing triggers her quite like bringing up the butterfly belt. lol
Though, it is understandable. It must be tough to be a woman who dreams of working in a field and at a place where your gender spent decades as just a sideshow. Her being a black woman most likely compounds the issue. But like you said, it'd be nice if the powers that be were advancing her division in a way that backed up her words about things changing.
Even I haven't put money down on Kendrick.

Seriously, not having the actual Cruiserweight champ on Raw when it's a new belt with the champ not known might be the worst creative decision of the month year.

It's even funnier when you realize they gave away the Demon entrance on a Raw, but wouldn't even have a champ talk shit or wave the night his division debuts

I think I've seen worse this year tbh. Still dumb.
That's understandable but she has to know she's destroying her body. Trying to outdo everyone isn't the way to get women's wrestling over.
SD is doing a great job at that and they're not killing themselves.
I do wonder If she thought about it during her injury break, I guess we'll see tonight if she'll start to take it a bit easier.

I still can't believe they did that. What on Earth were they thinking?
Only on the women. Alicia Fox for the surprise win and Sasha Banks for the obvious one.

Not a chance in hell, DQ win at an absolute stretch.

Definitely the worst choice of the month at the very least. You could have shoved him on commentary or maybe have him speak with Foley before the other four came out. Then have an in-ring staredown with him and Kendrick instead of a YouTube exclusive.
You just wait 'till Foxy gets the Stunner.

You know what I'm willing to make an avatar bet over this.
Nia Jax has been built up as the female monster wrestler with brought in jobbers. She needs to start bashing her way through the RAW Women's roster starting with someone low on the pecking order.
Which is why WWE will screw it up somehow by giving Fox a win.

I see your logic but I think even WWE aren't that stupid.
I offer to you as evidence: All of RAW in the past two months.
I had a hard time getting through the episodes because it all seemed terribly forced, but I loved the scene where Mick's younger sons ragged on comedy shows and the people who attend them.
Agreed. I think a lot of it is also her being young and too eager to please. Hopefully either she figured out that she's needlessly shortening her career or someone got in her ear and told her.

Weren't there rumours Vince was hesitant to push her because she doesn't know how to tone it down a bit? I can believe it.
