  1. Man, that Knockouts match was just an overbooked mess. But I can overlook it since they're going somewhere with the Allie storyline. But what happened to all of their entrance themes!?! That Madison went from Killer Queen to that is a crime lol
  2. I love that creative decided to just turn Carmella after she hasn't been getting the reactions they hoped. It was a cool and unexpected surprise from a company that can be a little too predictable. Plus, I can get behind heel Carmella much more than I can face Carmella. Becky and Alexa had a good little match.
  3. God bless the Smackdown Women. They really came to work but the crowd just didn't care at that point. I will say that having Nikki back is cool and I dig the new finisher. I was too worried about Sasha to really enjoy the Women's Title match.
  4. Really cool to finally see Ember debut. I just hope this loss doesn't derail whatever they have planned for Billie Kaye. They need to start building up the women not named Asuka ASAP.
  5. Enjoyed what we got of Jade/Gail and I'm liking this gradual build to Gail/Maria.
  6. I'm with you. Hopefully Billie goes wild, after losing, and attacks Ember, leading to a program.
  7. Great to see Naomi back. I really liked her as a heel so we'll see how the return to being a face goes. I agree that the entrance is indeed great (I'm not too hyped about the back pack but it's better than the fanny pack she rocked at a live show) and the kids are gonna eat it up. Eva Marie getting stuck in traffic only to show up later was gold. I know a lot of people had their misgivings but I think the Smackdown women are going to be just fine.
  8. I agree. Probably the best that she's looked yet. But I do agree that I want to see a more aggressive and heelish Billie. I know she has it in her. Bayley/Asuka II is gonna be glorious.
  9. This Eva Marie storyline continues to be fantastic. I really wish she were better in the ring because it would be awesome if she came out and killed when she eventually does have a match. I liked what we got of Becky/Alexa. Poor Carmella. I just wanted to pull her aside during her entrance and say "oh, sweetie, just stop. You're embarrassing yourself". I agree that she really hurts without Cass and Enzo. They should have revamped her gimmick before sending her up. Having said that, evil Nattie is awesome.
  10. I've always preferred Asuka as a heel so I'm living for her attitude change. Poor Aliyah was demolished lol
  11. Nattie is a good first program for Carmella. I can only assume that we will also be getting Naomi/Bliss? Which could be cool since both are decent on the mic. I'm totally here for Eva Marie and all of her foolishness.
  12. I enjoyed what we got of Madison/Gail. Those two have always had chemistry, whether as opponents or partners. Would have been nice to see Madison go over though as she needed the win more than Gail.
  13. According to her Instagram, it was in tribute to the Orlando shooting victims. I'm happy to see Billie Kay finally utilized. She was one of the talents I always thought should have been in the WWE. She has the look and talent. And I dig the heel persona and new theme.
  14. I liked Becky/Nattie. Wasn't as good as their PPV match but perfectly serviceable. And it was cool to get the other players in the division out afterwards but it could have been done better. The only one who stood out was Eva Marie and that's largely due to her new over the top entrance theme.
  15. Man, Lynda Carter is such a perfect pre-Crisis Diana.
  16. I'm surprised we haven't seen a Widow movie. It would seem that would be a no-brainer.
  17. I had a feeling Sasha would get the belt tonight as Raw had a special feel from the start. Very cool to see her get the big win and a good match from her and Charlotte but that Lita diva was a scary as hell.
  18. I'm glad I was wrong and Bayley was the mystery partner because, with how that crowd was chanting for her already, they would have totally crapped on any other woman lol I thought Nattie and Becky had a good match in a no-win placement. Cool that they didn't completely lose the crowd though.
  19. The Wonder Woman trailer looks fantastic. I'm definitely looking forward to the movie even more now. And I'm glad they're keeping her theme from Dawn of Justice. And looks like we've found a great compromise for her origin.
  20. Black Lotus definitely hasn't lost a step since FCW. I also enjoyed Taya/Ivelisse. Nice to have Catrina step in and further that feud. What more can be said about Rey/Puma? Really awesome match.
  21. Naomi's the sleeper over there. Before her injury, she was developing quite nicely. And Nattie is fine. Eva Marie is still not there yet and would have benefited from being on Raw and continuing the pairing with Nia Jax. I'm actually most concerned for Carmella and Alexa. Their NXT work has been pretty uneven although I think the last match they had against one another was pretty decent. But I have a feeling they will be exposed sooner rather than later.
  22. My issue with Cho is that he places the blame on Rucka when DC Editorial are the ones who (apparently) dropped the ball. But it's much more inflammatory to argue "SJW wants to censor my art" than "hey, this was a simple miscommunication".
  23. I'm digging that we're seeing focus on more women than just the champion and challenger but I do agree that the division's momentum has slowed. I wonder how much of that is related to the string of injuries (Emma, Naomi, Tamina, Nikki).
  24. I'm going with Nikki too. She's been hinting strongly at a return on social media. Plus, Charlotte is the woman who eventually dethroned her.
