Got destroyed in the women division, Askua and Absolution for Absolution light Riot Squad and Nattie?? Brutal
Utterly victimized in the Men's division. Gave up Miz, Samoa Joe, and Jeff Hardy for Corbin, Bobby Roode, Ziggler, and Jinder.
At least Kurt got a few extra throw ins for RTruth and Big Cass.
Only credit would be for the signings. McIntyre, AOP, Ember, and Lashley are good signings. He doesn't even get credit for K.O. and Zayn, cause they were signed by Steph to spite him.

Wasn't Asuka already a part of the roster?
I think she was more free agenty
I don't remember it being specified. But then again, she had those matches on RAW against James and Bliss.
They kinda implied that's what was going to happen with her winning the fem rumble and challenging Charlotte instead of going for the RAW title. However, seems like another one of those things they didn't exactly follow through with and just let it "sort itself out".

You silly man, you can't use real logic like explanations. That would be stupid.
You have to apply WWE logic.
She challenged the the Smackdown champion for absolutely no reason even though she was a RAW talent. Therefore, she was either jumping ship or unifying the belts. Very similar to Jinder going to RAW, dropping the US strap to Hardy, then Brother Nero going to Smackdown to keep their midcard title on the correct show, just less telegraphed because it was way before they announced "OMG SUPERSTER SHEKUPP!!!"

Yeah Smackdown definitely won this Superstar Shake Up. Didn't expect Joe or Asuka, thought it would be Balor and Banks. The Good Brothers on Smackdown Live should be great plus The Bar, Smackdown tag division is stacked. Still think Joe wins the IC and Mahal wins the US to swap them once again. Miz returning actually has me looking forward to a Daniel Bryan match for once. If it wasn't for Braun I don't think I'd have a reason to watch Raw.

I would either guess a) she's going to RAW, or b) it isn't so much of a knock on her as much as she is now one of the in-ring vets down there. It is kinda thin on the side of the ladies, especially when they blew massive (figurative) loads on bringing up Ember Moon, The Iconic Duo, the former heaters for Paige, and the three-girl Riott Squad. Really, you can kinda add Asuka to that mix. That's a lot of *trained* girls to call to the main roster in a relatively short amount of time.
But, one thing NXT has been fairly good with is the overlap of training folks, having a few that are ready but still able to go with the ones who are greener, and those who get the main roster nod. I would wager she's still there to help carry the fresh meat until you get another handful of girls who can do the same, then she'll get called up. And further speculation would lead me to guess that Bianca Belair would be appearing on the main roster around the same time.

I agree with that , hence Bayley not getting the call up for a while and Asoka. Can't remember Nikki being on NXT for a while or her last meaningful feud, wonder if she will join them to counter another female wrestler on an opposing team.

Just as 205 has its own show, do you think female wrestlers having their own show could ever work?
Women that are pure valets would stay on RAW or SD, but the female wrestlers could get their own show. Perhaps on this female wrestling show, you can have certain males be the valets/bodyguards of the female wrestlers. This could be a decent way to get some guys some additional TV time. Ronda Rousey, Charlotte, Asuka, Paige, and Stephanie McMahon would be the biggest stars on said show.

Just for the fact I feel there is enough shows already I'd say no even though it could probably work.
Also you know that it will be spun as some as being sexist etc that women are on a separate show.
One way you can work round it is to have one of Smackdown or Raw dedicated to a women's division and the other to a tag division.

It would go against what they are trying to do with the whole women's revolution. You are effectively telling the world that the premiere wrestling shows of WWE are for men only.

Got a point, Figgy. Didn't even think of that... but they still kinda did that.
However, I think an all women's show could have possibly worked, but the problem is they got too worried about setting up Total Divas/Total Bellas for the longest time and women's wrestlers actually having women's wrestling matches were super far on the back burner. That's why you had AJ Lee basically being queen of a nearly non-existent kingdom at the time she cut that promo that actually started the Women's Revolution that Steph likes to take credit for. They basically took potential angles and nixed the wrestling to focus on the whole Reality TV vibe. They effectively became TV stars who happen to wrestle sometimes instead of wrestlers who happen to be TV stars.

Hard truth is that the women of WWE as a whole, aren't good enough to carry a show on equal footing with the guys on Raw or Smackdown. If they were, I'd be all for their own show. As it is now, they would just get exposed.

I agree with that , hence Bayley not getting the call up for a while and Asoka. Can't remember Nikki being on NXT for a while or her last meaningful feud, wonder if she will join them to counter another female wrestler on an opposing team.
Bayley's main roster call-up was also delayed when she suffered (IIRC) an arm injury.
I got one small thing to point out I really like the segment with the Usos and Naomi before they went out to get murdered by the bludgeon brothers that was sweet

They've all got their strong points.
Nikki Cross is a unique character.
Eric Young is a pretty strong promo and solid in the ring. Alexander Wolfe was kind of an afterthought, but he's shown he's got a lot of balls and dedication based on fighting through some bad spots in War Games and some other stuff.
wonder if cross is getting repackaged to go with bray and matt make her a rosemary ripoff.

A fan of your caliber should know that would never work. They already have Total Divas anyway, we don't need a in ring show dedicated to nothing but women's wrestling.

I'm digging Nakamura as a heel, but I think the low blows have kind of been played out at this point. I thought it was a cool follow-up on the SmackDown after -- especially considering how gratuitous it was -- but AJ should really start wearing a cup at this point.
