Last time I saw her she was in the Nia Jax build. But that was a while ago. She's always that I can remember been fairly slim. She's tall and imposing, not fat.

RIPPA Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 Two related things of note 1) No brackets were released so we won't know what they look like until after today's tapings (unless the WWE releases them ahead of time) 2) In the other thread - I list what in theory will be the match order of the first 4 shows. However - they have aired them out of order before. Like in the CWC - they aired Kota Ibushi's match in the first Episode but it was taped much later on.

This way they can arrange the brackets better so the girls who got over/impressed the brass the most don't face each other in round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted August 10, 2018 Author Share Posted August 10, 2018 To go back a second - JJ tweeted that he specifically asked if “the don’t post finishes” was a rule for everyone and they said no, it was because “he worked for a dirt sheet” but more specifically it was because he was affiliated with WON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edwin Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Spoiler Toni Storm vs. Meiko Satomura is a MOTY candidate and easily the best match of the tournament and it's not even close. Unbelievable match. Even Michael Cole jumped out of his chair during the finishing stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Spoiler Well I guess they have to show the injury unfortunately. Probably with a warning beforehand. Really sucks because not only was she a favorite in the tournament but chances are a good future in NXT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Their match in Stardom felt like so much wasted potential since its clear they were holding back as not potentially outdo Io/Momo. Glad they got another chance to do it in WWE. Kind of reminds me of Toni/Kairi last year which similar went to an average draw only to have a way better semi-final match in the MYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edwin Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Spoiler Toni vs. Meiko should have gone last, they raised the bar too high for Io vs. Rhea. I'll post some more thoughts later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
