Just watched that women's train wreck.

Brie is going to legit cripple someone soon. It might even be herself if she attempts one of those dives to the outside again.

In that case, she deserves a title shot. Put her in against Reigns.

Bad Bella politely helps Liv with her dental issues.

100% of the first 25% of Smackdown has featured R-Truth.

Carmella was the women's champ like a month ago.

I'm saying that because I can't believe it.

When's the last time he was featured so heavily?

Probably when he had that main event run in 2011. By the way I would say that run alone makes him more Hall of Fame worthy than Val Venis, stick him on the list

Becky Lynch has been awesome as a heel imo. I remember this forum being furious when she turned and claimed it was an awful decision, though there was one guy who saw the light

(ok it wasn't as strong an endorsement as I had hoped when I searched for the post, but I'll take it)


Carmella face turn not so awesome.

I would say that too 😄! Some of your draft picks aren't on the list yet and they're way more worthy too.

Val Venis hasn’t been inducted, right?

I do agree that Truth has had the better career, though that isn’t a huge compliment.

You can go ahead and stick all my draft picks on the list; I just assumed that on a list featuring the likes of Val Venis and Dino Bravo there wasn't anyone left to add.

Not into the actual WWE Hall thankfully, if that’s what your asking.

LibSuperstar is making his own Hall and I’m not sure exactly how it works but he’s at least been nominated (but then again so has Barry Horowitz).

Is she getting heat? I watched a few SD post-turn and she was still getting pops with each appearance. If that's still the case then whether she's doin objectively heel work doesn't really negate the facts that:

1) She was more over as a face than Charlotte
2) Charlotte was better as a heel than a face, and always drew nuclear heat.

Aside from those two things, the turn just made no sense and was out of character for both. AND it was set up so perfectly for the turn to work the other way around and allow Becky's ultimate triumph to be great. So ya, unless Becky is straight GOATing as a heel and the fans are already booing her, I'm gonna stick with they shoulda turned Charlotte.

Initially I required inidivuals to get x number of nominations before they were placed on the ballot but I restarted the process in part due to realizing some deserving individuals may not get the requisite number of nominations. Therefore I decided that one nomination would be enough and I would add a preliminary ballot so that's why you're seeing names like Val Venis and Dino Bravo.

I can see WWE turning Charlotte heel (esp. if they're going down the Rousey-Flair road).

I was always the resident Becky fan of the forum and was really resistant about the turn because I thought WWE would make her into a typical chicken heel and ruin her character. Instead, it's been awesome, and they course corrected after some of the stuff in her first promo didn't work. It's been super fun to see her finally get a storyline she can sink her teeth into, because she's always been this good (at least at acting/talking/character stuff, which I value more than most) and hasn't really gotten to show it.

But yeah, I'm still holding out hope for a Charlotte heel turn, just because it's so awkward to watch segments where the crowd is reacting completely the opposite of how they're supposed to (aka every Roman Reigns segment). And she's such a natural heel. I'm still a little bummed that we didn't get the big payoff for the old Becky character, but I wouldn't change what she's doing right now. Let her be a badass, but let the fans cheer the character you spent two years building sympathy on.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned this during RAW or after. I was "watching" but lol women's matches that don't involve Ronda or Becky.



One week Brie tries to kill herself, the next she tries to kill Liv. This looks awful and I feel really bad for Liv. Hope she's able to be alright and still work (no pun!) after this. The Bellas on the other hand...it wasn't enough they tried to kill themselves recently, now Liv. They should gtfo

edit: I guess this was kind of mentioned itt as the camera pan fail by Cole and company.

edit 2 for this from the same match:

Is this different than when she kicked that girl's teeth out last week?

Did she elbow the pale one (way behind on the womens roster - Ruby?) right in the chops in that second clip?

Unpopular opinion: the kicking the teeth in botch wasn't entirely Brie's fault. You know exactly what's coming, have to present a proper target instead of dropping your head.

Pretty sure Brie's first shot was a knee to straight to her face and Liv dropped her head because she was knocked out.

Is she getting more flack from this because she's a woman or simply because nobody really wants to watch brie? This is bad sure but it's not an uncommon thing in wrestling to accidentally really injure your opponent.

Didn't Seth Rollins seriously injure Finn Balor and Sting not too long ago in a short time span? Rey Mysterio actually killed someone. Don't recall the internet throwing out that level of outrage but maybe that's just me only casually paying attention.
