It's not like they told Emma "go out there and make Asuka look great" and she was like "Nah, Emmamite sandwich".

for real tho she has personal responsibility. As enhancement your job is clear: Get the other guy over. She didnt do that. So if im the employer and I cant get her over and she cant get other poeple over I dont really have anyuse for her.

Who says she was enhancement? They had been giving her a mini-push leading into the match and then they put her on PPV. PPV isn't for enhancement matches, is it?

I highly doubt it was her call to go in and have a competitive match with Asuka. Couldn't see her having that sort of pull. Asuka was giving her traction, too. She didn't have to do that.

Once the bell rings the heel calls the match, no one in the back can do much about it. Only thing Asuka can do is start shooting on her...

I think there's more to this than you want to believe, but it's honestly anyone's guess. Unless you were there or something. Were you there or something?

I think somebody made a "possibly" bad booking decision in regards to Asuka's debut, got some heat for it, lashed out and blamed it on Emma, and...
...and who gives a fuck. Check this out: |

Now the chick from last night, SHE was enhancement. No entrance. No theme. No promo. No reason but to get beat the fuck up. That wasn't what Emma was there for.

Because what you're saying she was supposed to be doing was be a jobber.

The match went 9 minutes. Are we suggesting that Asuka was suppposed to squash her for 9 minutes? Or that Emma took the match long?

Was she suppose to "get shined on" for nine minutes?

Yeah all the spots should have served asukas benefit. You guys have seen a hundred matches that do this...its not a radical thing. People have made careers out of it. You can frame a hope spot that even after the cutt off still does business for the other guy.

As someone who has only been directly involved in ONE wrestling match, I have to say...

I mean, I think I get what you're saying, but I can't tell which one is "the other guy" there. Asuka?

I get exactly whay Des is saying. The match was decent but made Asuka look very human which is stupid right out the gate.

Could have been competitve but with Asuka displaying superiority in every facet. 1 step ahead even though Emma was game. Instead Asuka seemed like a plucky young underdog fighting from underneath.
Did the same thing with Nak vs Ziggler and imo he hasnt found his stride since. |

The thing ia Asuka is billed as different. Yet the match vs Emma may as well have been Sheamus vs The Miz

They coulda also let Emma call it in the ring and thats how she decided to call it and Asuka may have been playing nice with it being her first 2 matches on the main roster. Who knows.

Doesn't add up to me. I definitely understand what Destor is saying, but I really don't think this falls on Emma, and if it's really the reason she was released, it's fucking bullshit.

I am just goinf off these apparent rumours i havent heard til this thread. The whole Asuka thing is just weird. May as well have squashed her with how much offence she got then shitcanned.
