But then I haven't liked any of the bayley matches and enjoyed all Sasha/Nia matches. Honestly, I felt that the Asuka-Nia matches were very clunky. Bayley had the right formula to make Nia look like a worldbeater but still come out ahead at the end. It felt like a real fight from underneath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamina is the SD version of Jax, intimidating woman who frowns a lot. Not sure how that makes her the least likable woman wrestler?! Jason Jordan just walked out on Raw because his dad's on the show with Smackdown getting nothing in return. I'm sure Harper/Rowan could cross over as they're on SD so irregularly that no one would really notice. Re: Sasha - I'll fully admit that I don't "get" her character. I don't know what she's the boss of exactly. The others (minus Lana) actually look like wrestlers. Sasha is about 100 pounds soaking wet and is injury prone. The points you made about Nattie, Carmella, Emma, and Alexa are all valid, but I think that they help their characters. I didn't know a thing about Alexa when she debuted, but she eventually won me over by being a consistently competent wrestler. Sasha's matches have really done nothing for me, and I think she really soured on me during the whole feud with Charlotte. Back and forth booking may be partially to blame as well, but I just don't care for her. As far as Harper/Rowan, I meant more of a logistical standpoint, ie if they were to be traded for two other wrestlers, or another shakeup up, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasha is well over 100 pounds. She's in great wrestling condition and she's only been injured once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently JoJo's sister died and that is why she wasn't on RAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know exactly how accurate it is but 14 lbs for a woman who by my estimation seeing her in person is about 5'4" is a big difference especially when it's mostly muscle. She's not frail if that's what you mean. But I'll agree to disagree with it, you aren't a fan and that's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Meanie Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 That's pretty much the word I was going for, she's frail looking. But I'll agree with the agree to disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Anyone who is thinking the Jordan thing isn't working isn't seeing the long game. You know, the one that's so obvious Booker talked about it the whole match. He's going to be a heel. They're trying to do a Rocky Maivia type situation but on purpose. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 You're going to be able to hear a pin drop in that arena when he does finally turn heel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, we'll be able to say Jordan is consistent. FWIW, I really liked American Alpha and wish things went better for them on SD. I remember that pop they got when it was announced they were picked by SD in the draft. Unfortunately for them, Heath Slater & Rhyno caught fire and WWE would have been dumb not to put the titles on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 But wasn't this the exact same issue he had in NXT until they paired him with a heat magnet like Gable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Meanie Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 He can play a heel, after all he was a jerk to Breeze in Breaking Ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
