C.S. Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 No one who has gotten a live performance for their entrance has ever won at WrestleMania. We'll see if Rhea breaks that streak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 I'm not emotionally invested in this match like last night's main event (I think I've seen 1-2 Rhea matches ever?) and I'm definitely not emotionally invested in watching Edge. So I'll be half here as we watched the Pennyworth season finale that dropped today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilTLL Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 I didn't think Bianca Belair getting emotional at the beginning was a huge detriment last night, but these two have absolutely none of those issues. This is focused and peppy so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither. It doesn't help that Rhea is perpetually in second place. In second place to Charlotte last year. In second place in NXT for the rest of the year and cooled off to the point where she was the 4th string of a team led by Shotzi. In second place to Bianca in the Royal Rumble. In second place now as Charlotte's replacement in this match. Maybe she'll win tonight, maybe she won't, but her win won't feel as dramatic and epic as Bianca's because the push and build haven't been there. Just my opinion. Unlike 35, Charlotte would've added a lot to this as the connective tissue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of how many matches Ric Flair got all weepy eyed before, during, or after after 1997 or so. It's not like it was a crazy blood feud.

Matt D Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 Fun counter-heavy stuff here. I liked Rhea selling the ankle and then seamlessly turning the motion into paintbrushing Asuka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strobogo Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 I think it's kind of neat how Rhea and Bianca both do this big power spots but in completely different ways from each other yet equally displaying their strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Asuka has spent months not being used, and no one cares about Rhea after a year of being cooled down and then rushed into this match as a last-minute replacement.
