Half the internet thinks she is shooting because they love to hate her

It’s weird when they call her a bad promo and then get worked by them. That’s pretty impossible to do, even the best ones wish they could do that. Not like there’s anything special here.

She has charisma, star quality/it factor, but she is bad on the mic. Her cadence (if I'm using that correctly) is so bad.

Be that as it may, you just don’t like how she does it. And there’s nothing wrong with that. I don’t even like that part of it, and doing promos outside of WWE is different than in it, which is something to be learned. But if you cut a promo and people react as if it’s real, it objectively did its job and even exceeded it considering the actual audience of not-WWE wrestling.

That’s like when people got themselves convinced, multiple times, that MJF turned face, and didn’t want or hated to admit they got worked when he didn’t.

Bayley's real life personality is just more likeable than Sasha's. She was back on Sheamus's Celtic Warrior Workout channel recently and how could you not like this person (should start at the right spot):


Oh, I don’t disagree with you on Bayley being more likeable.

I just find it weird how people you once liked in WWE, you don’t like or follow anymore because they left the company you shill. There’s lots of good wrestling out there, lots of guys who you once liked are thriving elsewhere.

I'm not attached to these people. I barely have time to watch the Raw, NXT and Smackdown during a week and now the latter is the only one I can watch live anymore.

So does my point. I have limited time and I'm not THAT into wrestling as a business/form of entertainment that I'd care to watch "everything".
Which is why I find it super odd that you were so quick to shill out “Briscoes mentioned on WWE” when you don’t watch or support them.

You often jump in AEW threads when someone mentioned WWE in a negative light and deflect things. In fact, the only time you contribute to those threads is when WWE is mentioned.

I’m just saying, if you’re bored and enjoy wrestling. Watch some FTR vs Briscoes, Willy O vs Omega.

If I'm bored, wrestling is the last thing I want to watch.

I agree with you on the part about whoever it was here who thought she was really doing a shoot interview in that clip posted. I guess I was just replying to a part of your post with my opinion on Banks' promo ability.

As much as I think Banks' mic work is bad, that style of promo seems better suited for WWE than it does for Japan.

This is insanely odd logic.
I liked Harlem Heat, the Steiners, Enzo and Cass, the Dudley Boys. Didn't care for Stevie Ray, Rick Steiner, Big Cass, or D-Von on their own though.

Side note- I thought Sasha's New Japan entrance theme was one of the worst I've ever heard. But now I think it would be pretty decent if you took out Mon-ay vocals.
