I love you Cool King, so please don't take this personally, but you and the forum are just wrong about Alexa Bliss. She is awful. She constantly looks like she is trying to remember lines, her facial expressions aren't great, they are poor actress mugging quality, without the same hilarious quality that a William Regal has. She's B+ high school drama. Those insults were bullshit quasi-xenophobic anti-Irish horse-shit too. Becky going into the scripted tirade about her little cousin was shitty stuff too, but if you want to compare that to Sheamus, Bliss' casual racism is up there.
The Disney stuff is weak too. Becky was like "you're obsessed with Disney" and then she went right back to life not being a fairy tale. Becky is only really good when she gets to go on her own tangents and hype herself up, because the writers can't invoke her voice with a script, but at least she has an organic voice.
The crowd was hot for the fight and then died when Becky went through the table. Watch again for yourself:
That energy is gone. You hear some boos when she elbows Becky on top, but after the pop for the spot it's pretty darn quiet. Some very feint booing. Not enough to call the segment over.
Also, the honey badger thing, while I'm not a huge fan of it, is a reference to that viral video that went around about the honey badger. It's supposed to emphasize Becky's "quirky" nature. She loves the dorky videos on the internet of obscure bad-ass animals, you see. A lioness or whatever you suggested would play it too straight, because she's off-color and off-center see? I'm not sure if it was her idea or not, but it sounds like something one of the writers would have come up with it.
