Not sure I agree with that, tbh. Like I said...there was always this kind of disingenuous aura to Steph...and if you actually compare women under her leadership to women under Triple H...I'd say that HHH honestly did a better job there, too. Steph would always push a certain type of female agenda. She was the driving force behind stuff like the Bella Twins...whereas, Triple H obviously gave us the entire NXT boom and the women's division that we know today. So, yeah...I'd put Steph in the same category as Brandi Rhodes in AEW. - She was someone who was very vocally supportive of women in the industry, but also pushed a specific kind of "diva" wrestling while not being too supportive of women's ability to "be more". Like...the current stuff we have with Rhea Ripley is not something that would have happened with Stephanie booking things. That's very much Triple H and his "women can be equals to men" approach to things. I think there's a big difference between "supporting women's wrestling" and booking women to actually be a draw. And I think HHH actually does the latter. Edited September 15 by Generations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillDriven Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 I know that Austin Theory is a heel but I can imagine deep down that being in a ring segment with The Rock is like a dream come true. He's gotta be an inspiration to a lot of the young guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 Guessing the Rock and Cena stuff has to do with that SD "Fox deal" news and how they aren't willing to pay what is being asked. Probably WWE trying to book above and beyond to sweeten the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillDriven Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso's solo careers is starting off more lukewarm than I thought they were going to be. The Bloodline was overrated IMO but the storyline did help put the Usos on the map but now at this point it feels like the creative team is scrambling on what to do with each twin. The hype and momentum is looking like it's gonna dry up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 I really never saw the Usos being singles stars. Especially not Jimmy. Jey definitely has more appeal overall...but nowhere near Solo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillDriven Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 Even though Jey is my favorite Twin, I still want Jimmy to do well too. I just have this gut feeling that the creative team is gonna feel like being able to market both Twins as Main Event material is impossible. It's kinda like going solo after being in a top billboard music band and everybody thinks your solo material is like elevator music now...

Generations Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 I'd say that it's impossible to market them both as main event material simply because neither of them are. Creative can't make them into something they're not. They honestly should stay as a tag team...but, even if they do go the singles route, upper midcard is probably the cutoff for both. Maybe a US title reign here or there...but not world champions. Neither one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I watched the breakdown video by Stevie Richards you shared and the woman is just so clumsy and careless she shouldn't even be allowed anymore.

Senex Beast Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 Oh damn Rock making a surprise and that's awesome but so just to have a segment with Austin Theory? No offense tk Theory but I, many wanted wanted Rock to return to face Roman at WM. Could still happen but just seems weird to have Rock randomly return one night for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted September 19 Report Share Posted September 19 (edited) So...the plan for Nia is to make the entire women's division a joke in the span of two weeks time? Why are they doing this shit? This has Vince written all over it, and I *censored*ing hate it. Got rid of Tyrus in NWA and got Nia back...fml. I could MAYBE get behind this if... Jade Cargill debuts as a face and takes out Nia Jax But that still doesn't explain why it was necessary to take out Rhea the other week. That's your champion and easily the biggest female draw on the roster. Edited September 19 by Generations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted September 26 Report Share Posted September 26 (edited) Nia really is the worst. Don't let her speak. And her bonsai drop finish is official, and is called the "A-Nia-lator"? - She's gonna kill someone with that. It was bad enough that they let her do it once. She's gonna do that every single week and risk the career/life of everyone who takes it? I hate it here.

StillDriven Posted September 26 Report Share Posted September 26 I didn't even know that a certain percentage of fans are basically not even happy to see Nia Jax back. If I can say one positive thing about having Nia Jax in the women's division, is that it can inspire women of a certain body type to see that they too can become wrestlers as a woman. Like Awesome Kong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
