Fro was in line for a big push when I shut down shop, too.

Now there's new blood here.

My suggestion for Fro?

I don't know if she does it on purpose but she slaps guys way too high. I remember Reigns looked like he got beat up after she was done cause she hit him so many times near the eye.

I'm really struggling to understand WWE's booking. We had a solid program between Becky/Flair that made sense. Sasha comes out, because she's a badass, and puts her foot in the ground at Royal Rumble saying it's her time. Fast Lane should have been a 3 way bout between NXT girls. Period. The story all makes sense.

But.. out of nowhere we are supposed to care about Brie Bella because Nikki had surgery. Ummm. okay? She cleanly pins the Divas champ. :laugh: THEN.. Sasha comes out and she's back with Team Bad. Wait.. "ehattttt" is going on? Sasha coming out at the Rumble now means nothing. That was her moment to say SHE has arrived, nobody else.

It was simple booking. Sasha vs. Becky vs. Flair. It made sense. It was perfectly fine. It could go 10-15 minutes and be great. Someone make sense of it.

There's no making sense of it. It's WWE....

While Sasha obviously needs to be in the Mania picture, it's a mistake to have not capitalized on Becky when she was hot. Who knows where she'll go if you take attention off of her.

They kept Young Boy Tom off tv so his face could heal after she slapped him.

while correct, I think at FastLane we'll see Charlotte vs Brie as an aside for Sasha and Becky to team up and get rid of Team BAD then move forward with the triple threat at WM...I'm not losing a lot of sleep over this one...

If she's booked alright, she can stay hot without the title, and get the payoff in the end. Of course, we're assuming her title win will be booked like Bayley's was, so surely it's not possible to do that at this level.

The answer is simple. Total Divas. This is literally an attempt to add a story line for that stupid show.

Charlotte isn't even on the show though so its really a 1-sided story angle.. unless I missed her debut?

Just seems like a bad decision and I have a feeling Becky gets lost in the mix.

I think the loss to Brie is fine. It's setting up the story for the future.

The story we've just had was Charlotte listening to her farther and being corrupted. She turned into a cheating heel, which turned Becky against her and won by cheating.

The story in this next chapter is going to be about Charlotte splitting from Flair. He is going to give her advise and cheat for her, but it's going to cost her matches. This'll happen a few times before she finally splits form him and he goes off TV.

What we saw on Raw was the first step. Flair told Charlotte to go for her finisher, but it was countered and she lost. It'll be blown off, but it will escalate before it finally costs Charlotte the belt at Wrestlemania.



Ofc, this is me booking...
