I know nothing of Connor McGregor so I just see Becky being entertaining and good in her role.
|
I'm sure I would be enjoying her a lot if I actually watched the show.
|
It's painfully obvious. She has to keep her shit talk "PG".... but still. Everything is a direct rip off McGregor.
|
I would heavily suggest that it’s Becky’s idea.

Wrestling is built on plagiarism.

Does McGregor have a patent on being Irish and cocky?
|
Not yet, the patent is pending.
|
its not like this is new. Billy Graham, Jesse Ventura and to a lesser extent Hulk Hogan are all knock offs of Muhammad Ali to varying degrees
|
if thats the perception of how a skilled fighter handles themselves culturally then it makes perfect sense to carry that into wrestling. infact its smart.
|
I guess it was more of "seen it already" that made me yawn.
|
nothings new. least of all in wrestling. theres only 7 stories after all.
|
I mean didn’t McGregor base his own persona off of wrestling? He’s basically doing what Ric Flair and the Rock were doing during their prime heel runs but with an Irish accent.
It’s fine. |
She’s acting like a star.
|
Forget McGreggor, her and Seth wearing the most over the too stuff is the best gimmick going today!
|
Big Time Becks!

Guys, I just skimmed through the results on TPWW.net and I think it is fair to say that Monday Night RAW blew anything AEW has ever presented out of the water. I can't wait for Chad Gable and Otiz to simultaneously hold the WWE title.
|
Legit felt bad for Nikki tonight, not only losing her match, but then being asked by King backstage if she wanted his autograph - I don't blame her for walking away, poor girl. Maybe she'll rebound next week.
|
Saw Liv Morgan was trending and am surprised at how many people are mad that she didn’t win the title.
Don’t really see why anybody would think Becky is dropping the title before Mania. |
It wouldn’t surprise me to see Nikki Ash released.

Otis just pinned Riddle clean and then took out Orton after the match
Let’s goooooooooooooo |
I will start watching Raw again religiously if they make Alpha Academy a legitimate tag team
|
RKBro vs Alpha Academy vs Street Profits is the biggest “styles make fights” match in the company
|
Bianca and Doudrop was pretty good!
|
Holy shit! Did Chad Gable just pin Orton with an O’Connor roll? Jesus Christ :eek:
|
Liv Morgan is extremely basic in terms of mic and in-ring skills. Which means she’s perfect for the market at large.

Holy shit man, Miz inducting himself into the Hall of Fame is about the greatest thing ever lol
|
Alpha Academy can save this company.
|
They are slow playing Omos turning on AJ pretty well, but I dont know if the likely plan of an Omos babyface run will work.
|
I like how the 24/7 segments have just become Reggie trying to bang Dana Brooke and Truth and Tozawa are also there in disguises cockblocking him :rofl:
|
I liked Liv Morgan more when she didn't speak

The pacing thing with the entrances is really one of the dumber things they do. Having a wrestler start their entrance and then cut promos and commercials. It feels so awkward on tv, I can’t imagine how bad it looks live with the wrestler just standing in the rind for 5 minutes waiting for the promos to end.
|
On Smackdown last week, the Viking Raiders made their entrance before it cut to commercial. Came back to a Natalya promo and I think another promo before Jinder and what's-his-name made their entrance. Then there was another commercial before the match started.
Did Erik and Ivar stand in the ring thumping their chests going "RAID! RAID! RAID!" that whole time? |

This is pretty shitty for sure. Doubly so when the 30 second-looped entrance themes started (looking at you CFO$). House shows can be fun tho, get talent interacting more with the live crowd and being responsive. Fink was the greatest. Very humble dude. Used to holler "FINK IS THE MAAAAAAAAN!" all the time. 100% of the time the dude would interact with that. There was one house show where I recall seeing Kane (like, the 1st mask-covering-voicebox-busted Kane) do the People's Elbow, only to be followed up by Pall Bearer doing the same thing to The Rock. Fun stuff. |
They've done the whole "entrance and then segment" thing for ages, even before it was at the level it is now.
The wrestler usually just fucks around chatting with the referee and ring announcer because they all have nothing to do but wait. |
