It would be like if they brought Goldberg in during the middle of his streak in WCW, acknoledged said streak in WWF, even put over the damn streak in an unprecedented move... and then had him him in his debut match against Road Dogg where he mostly took bumps for about 20 minutes and THEN gets a jackhammer and spear.

Asuka struggling *at times* is okay, just so long as they pick the right times. Bliss is the champ, and while she plays a great chickenshit champ and liking to hide behind Nia and such, it is kinda cool when a heel evolves beyond that, especially when it makes her look legit holding the belt instead of it just being her turn to carry it for awhile. She doesn't like to do the work herself, but she *can* at least hold her own if she has to.

Otherwise, she would just be like Jinder.

I dig it all around.
