    The women's division is somehow less significant than it was a year ago.

    I will say that at least there actually seems to be a couple of simultaneous feuds going on, whereas it used to be "feud for the title" and then "everyone else in multi-diva tags".  But so much momentum has been lost since Wrestlemania, that cannot be denied.

    Yes, how dare I enjoy things. Also, I say whatever I want, and you can do nothing about it.....neckbeard.

    Although I suppose you do fill a major void here, as the one thing this board is lacking is someone who posts one liners that are blindly-supportive of any given WWE show.  We definitely need more discourse akin to a 13-year-old boy retweeting Twitter posts from John Cena or YouTube-level comments.

    Really enjoyed most of Raw. The 12 man tag was all kinds of fun, I don't care what anyone says. 

    "I liked this WWE show, it was pretty good, let's see where this goes.  Also, I'm not a neckbeard." - every post you've ever made.

    So glad the New Day came out during that "Cena doesn't understand why Enzo/Cass say 'how you doin?'" bit and just ended it before they ran that into the ground any further.

  4. And true to form, rather than taking any responsibility for missing a gilt-edged chance late in the match to win it for his side or give his opponents any credit, CR7 whines about how Iceland (the country with a population of 323,000, playing in the final stages of an International tournament for the first time ever) played with a counter-attacking mindset against Portugal (population of over 10,000,000 and runners up of the 2004 Euros).

    Talented as he may be, I'm glad that he will never win anything on the International stage.

  5. I'd forgotten about Tamina's injury, and I'll grant Naomi's shooting a shitty movie will take her out of circulation for a minute.  Even so, I'm still counting a 4/4 split in terms of active heels (Charlotte/Alicia/Summer Rae/Lana) vs. active faces (Sasha/Becky/Paige/Natalya).  Creative's failure to use Alicia Fox doesn't take her out of the equation, and I fail to see how the "she's still training" argument works against Lana, when Dana Brooke has been in developmental less time and is just coming off of a major injury that had her side lined for most of 2015?  If they were going to throw someone out there who can't work just to even up the numbers, why not go ahead and pull the trigger on Eva Marie?  What's the point in defending Dana Brooke being on Raw when she is in no way ready, and isn't particularly needed?

    The problem is the Women's division is short on heels outside Charlotte.  Dana has to stay by default.

    Let's examine this, shall we?  Even with Emma's injury, for the heels we have Charlotte, Naomi, Tamina, Alicia Fox, Summer Rae, and Rosa Mendes. You could even throw in Lana and Maryse, bringing us to a total of 8 without Dana Brooke.  The faces have Sasha, Becky Lynch, Paige, and Natalya.  Let's go ahead and say Nikki Bella makes a miraculous recovery, and we bring that number to 5 faces.

     

    8 vs. 5.  Not exactly sure how one looks at those numbers and thinks "By default, I need to add another to the side that has 8 to address this imbalance!", but there you go.

  7. Somewhat surprised that  Fever Pitch by Nick Hornby hasn't been mentioned as of yet.  All of the idiosyncratic and neurotic passion for details and outright mania exhibited in High Fidelity, transposed to football culture (specifically, Arsenal).

    On that note, let's just pretend that the Jimmy Fallon/Drew Barrymore film abortionadaptation to being about the Red Sox in place of Arsenal does not exist, shall we?
