WWE Summerslam 2020 Renee Young is the best

[KawadaSmile]

Paul George is such a bum, man.

Only in WWE would a match stip be changed to something less interesting (Sonya vs. Mandy).

TBF I think that was beyond their control, with that creep trying to break into her house and such.

[NintendoLogic]

Yeah, like I said in the other thread, this is most likely a way to write Sonya out for the time being so she can take some much-needed time off.

[C.S.]

That's depressing.

Under normal circumstances, I think Sonya should have won. Whether she would have is another story.

But now, if she needs time off for personal reasons, that's more important than anything else - no matter what Jim Cornette might think.

[C.S.]

I think MVP should have won. But even if you like Apollo, running away from Lashley and Shelton makes him look like a total geek. 

[C.S.]

Randy Orton won't win now that they've all predicted it.

Under normal circumstances, even though the possibility of losing would be there, Sonya would still come off as a bigger star no matter what. But right now, her mental health is what matters.

[KawadaSmile]

At this point, the fact that both Mandy and Sonya are getting time at a big ppv is good enough. It's a shame that even when they do things correctly, shit happens.

[C.S.]

Can't argue with that, Bubba.

Orton is definitely winning the title from Drew. Just not entirely sure if they're going to do it tonight or at a later date. 

...the ThunderDome doesn't look half bad to be honest. 

[C.S.]

Asuka got done dirty there. 

The Raw Women's Title has rarely meant less than it does now, and no one cares about the Smackdown version of the title. (And don't get me started on the useless Women's Tag Titles.)

Note to WWE: A lengthy reign doesn't necessarily mean an important or good reign. 

 

[KawadaSmile]

Bayley's reign is ok. She is a good heel champ, but the state of her challengers is just... not good. It has some of the problems Charlotte faced when she dominated all three brands, specially no one being built to beat her, and everyone looking like a geek in the process.

But hey, her chemistry with Asuka is great and they've yet to have a bad match.

[KawadaSmile]

Also, Mama Mysterio could kick Seth's ass.

[hammerva]

To be fair Asuka shouldn't be having 2 title matches on this show.   You can't tell me that the women's division is that dead that she needs to go for both titles.

Anyone else's Network glitching slightly during this Rey/Dom segment?

The Bayley match was non-title, with Asuka getting a shot at Sasha if she won. Useless.

[cactus]

I didn't even notice that Bayley's held the title for over 300 days until they've mentioned it. I could of swore she won it at 'Mania. 

Dominic can't act for shit. 

[Coffey]

Gotta give WWE credit, they certainly hire some beautiful, non-wrestling women. They always come off like they're too good for WWE, too. Like they should be doing bigger & better things. So when the likes of Renee or Charly pop-up elsewhere, it's never really a surprise. Even Jojo when she first showed up before all that Bray Wyatt stuff in NXT, I remember seeing her & thinking "goddamn, why is she in WWE?"

Didn't like that Crews was preshow. Didn't like that Bayley/Asuka ended in a roll-in. Not thrilled that Dominik is getting a PPV match. But after McAfee surprised everyone yesterday, I'll give it a chance.

In kayfabe, is Zelina one of the worst managers ever?

[C.S.]

This show has been really flat, lifeless, and heatless thus far. Lack of crowds doesn't help. Thunderdome looks cool but there's still not enough genuine fan noise. 

[KawadaSmile]

It's time for the MAIN EVENT

[KawadaSmile]

Mandy is a legit very good babyface, IMO.

My thoughts exactly.

The Zelina in NXT was a great manager.   And she was pretty good when only with Andrade.  But once they made it a stable it hasn't been a mess for her.
