MoS Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Not watching this match: how over are these two? I am guessing we can tell by the kind of chants piped in which one is supposed to be face and who is the heel? Quote
sek69 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Jesus, that flip bump to the floor Rhea took... Quote
C.S. Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 I kinda hope all the rumors are a misdirect and we actually get Lashley vs. Cena and Reigns vs. Goldberg. Both of those matches sound far more interesting to me if WWE is going to insist on using part-timers in big spots. Quote

Several loud WE WANT BECKY chants (which led to Charlotte flipping off the crowd) would indicate chants are not being piped in. Quote
MoS Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Just turned on the match to massive WE WANT BECKY chants. This is the downside to the superstars teasing fans about a potential comeback, especially in a match where the two wrestlers are not particularly over Quote

But at the beginning something happened - I don't know if the power went out for a second or if they were trying to blackout the feed because Charlotte was flipping off the live crowd, but the screen was black for a few seconds & the crowd lost their minds. Thinking it was a surprise, I reckon? But then when it came back on nothing happened and the fans were chanting for Becky for awhile. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted July 19, 2021 Author Report Posted July 19, 2021 Gotta say: no one benefits from having a program with Charlotte other than Charlotte herself. Quote

Oh there definitely are a lot of chants like this one that are not piped in, which is making the piped in noise stand out much more Quote

Watching the match now and it seems like the crowd pops for the big spots but is quiet for all transitions, which has always been a problem with Charlotte's in-ring work Quote
C.S. Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Now they're both doing Flair tribute spots...LOL. Quote
cm funk Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 I noticed the fake noise vs. the real noise immediately during the first match. It's so F'n bad. The actual crowd has seemed mostly dead but live for short bursts. Show has been kinda meh Quote
MoS Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Seriously, WHO IS THE FACE HERE. The match is structured so weirdly Quote
sek69 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 It is amazing how Ric excelled at getting his opponents over, sometimes to his detriment, yet Charlotte seems to only be good at getting Charlotte over. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted July 19, 2021 Author Report Posted July 19, 2021 Crowd came back alive, it seems. Quote

MoS Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Then she does that rope spot thing right as I type that lol Quote
C.S. Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 I don't care about either of them, but even I have to admit this has been a good match. Charlotte's weird red eye-shadow makes her look bloodshot though. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted July 19, 2021 Author Report Posted July 19, 2021 Holy shit THAT should be Charlotte's finish and despite it making for a great nearfall, it IS her best looking move maybe ever. Quote
MoS Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 This match had a terrible first half but has had an excellent 2nd half so far Quote

Jmare007 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 Why does Charlotte make a crying face every time the crowd chants "this is awesome"? are those chants for real or piped in? Quote
C.S. Posted July 19, 2021 Report Posted July 19, 2021 The result wasn't a surprise, with Rhea so blatantly boo-boo-facing at the beginning of the match. Quote
