I didn't care for them back in the day because, as you say, I felt like they were taking away from "real women's wrestling". But I have come around on them. It sucks that Nikki and Brie were part of the worst wrestling period of the WWE and it was not exactly their faults at all. It hurt that fans could easily view Joshi matches that were on par with WWE super matches or Shimmer while there was this women's division that was downright terrible. It was not their fault because they did not get the time or the leeway that the male wrestlers got and by the time the Women's Revolution came around, people already got sick of them and Total Divas did not help them at all because they were seen as separate from the main roster. I'm glad that the two found success in being reality TV stars, but I hate that they really never got the chance to shine aside from being twins. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodear Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Just a delightful, fun tag match where they don't do anything but play to the crowd for the first half. Mandy got to show off a personality beyond just being Absolution Member Number 3 and she should obviously be doing more of that rather than the generic nothing she is now. Her heel work was really good especially the hair flip deal and running her mouth. Goldust was obviously the star with tremendous facial expressions and funny spots. Again, house show tomfoolery is the best. Give me this on a regular basis. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude literally has had the same gimmick work in what, six different eras over twenty three years. They avoid inducting active workers. He'll get in.

Not the same thing, but Mandy was Goldust's manager on Main Event this week in his match against Curt Hawkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I like Dustin and all, but pairing him and Mandy at this point would do about as much for her as pairing Emma with Santino right out the gate did. That said, the match last night was a lotta fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 They've definitely got chemistry and Absolution is dead before it even began. So, pairing her with a rock-solid veteran like Goldust is not the worst idea in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I'm curious to see how Bliss does when they turn her babyface (which seems to be imminent). She seemed DOA in NXT until she turned heel and BAMF got some traction. She was rather bland doing the babyface "sparkle fairy" gimmick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She talked about that a little, I think in the "My Daughter Is A WWE Superstar" thing they did? She said her original gimmick was too close to her own personality and that going heel freed her because nobody would think it was really her. Maybe with more experience now it wouldn't be a problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trick is to basically keep the same character but have her going up against heels and doing things the fans can get behind. She could be a Hogan/Austin bully face pretty easily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kronos Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 My first thought on that "My Daughter" video is how young her parents look, given she's probably 24 or so when this video was made. And then one of the first things they say is that the dad was 17 and the mom 18. Gilmore Girls territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
