If You're Reading This Wrestling Thread, It's Too Late - Part 234

Those ring aprons are dangerous when they're flipped up like that. Charlotte slipped once on it. I thought for sure Sasha was gonna slip on it during the power bomb spot. The ref is supposed to be the one to fix that.

 

[O'Haire]

Other than KO and Rollins, I thought the show was really meh.

Best moment though was the fan yelling "Get a ****ing haircut hippie"

 

[Dr. Evil]

That ending felt too sudden. I wonder if Sasha legit got hurt at the end and just threw in the towel.

Possibly.

Charlotte's going to have to lose at a PPV right? She'll probably feel confident in any match against Bayley but what if.....

She has a match against Bayley for the title, beats her, and then beats Dana and runs through the whole Raw roster? She then has to face two powerful threats:

Of course, one of them would have to turn face. Or how about this woman?

I don't know how Charlotte's going to deal with the dangerous kicks of Asuka or the size of Nia Jax.

 

[runawayboulder]

I think Charlotte was supposed to go through the table, but Sasha may have legit re-injured her back by pulling it. That's a lot of weight to hold up.

Nah, that was just well done in ring psychology/storytelling. They worked the back all throughout the match. Charlotte did a great job with it.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I think there is zero chance Charlotte doesn't finally lose to either Sasha or Bayley at a PPV.

 

[Wheels]

It seems like WWE might be afraid that fans will turn on Sasha if she isn't chasing. Wonder if they're right?

 

[Dr. Evil]

IMO, it'll be Bayley she loses to at a PPV......

if not, then it'll probably be to one of the two ladies I mentioned on the last post.

 

[SpideyVille]

I think Charlotte was supposed to go through the table, but Sasha may have legit re-injured her back by pulling it. That's a lot of weight to hold up.

I also fear that, with her concussion history, that she might have taken a bad blow at some point. That ending felt a lot like when Taker lost the Streak, very underwhelming despite the fact that the Natural Selection is Charlotte's Signature move. I really expected her to kick out though.

 

[Dr. Evil]

So....Becky vs. Alexa won't be this brutal right?

 

[runawayboulder]

The Internet just practically exploded with Sasha ass shots.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

At one point, Charlotte said, "I can't." Maybe she couldn't do the table spot?

 

[OnTheAir]

It seems like WWE might be afraid that fans will turn on Sasha if she isn't chasing. Wonder if they're right?

I don't think it would be the worst thing in the world if they did. I love Sasha either way, but she's great as a heel.

I don't doubt it. It was pretty much all I was watching the last 5 minutes of the match.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I feel like she is an infinitely better heel. She isn't the Rock, she can't pull off the arrogance and make it work as a face.

Hell In The Cell 2016 Review:

Good match by the vanilla midgets.

United States Championship

It was like watching 2 drunk guys fight in a bar. The best part were those devastating kendo shots on Roman's protective vest.

Enzo & Cass Vs. The Club

Glad Anderson & Gallows went over. They needed this win.

World Heavyweight Title

Great match, but having Jericho interfere AGAIN to cost Rollins the title was lazy booking.

Cruiserweight Championship

Was hoping for Perkins to retain, but its nice they threw Kendrick a bone after his amazing comeback performance in the CWC tournament.


Tag Team Championship


So done with New Day. Just break the G** damn Demolition record and get the belts off them already!

Women's Championship

Some blood would've been nice, but I think Flair & Banks delivered.


Overall, the PPV was garbage, but the main event made up for it.

 

[Wheels]

I reactivated my WWE Network account to see Charlotte vs Sasha and I wasn't disappointed. They earned that spot.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Sasha isn't making it to WrestleMania 33.

 

[Slushy]

Sucks Sasha got hurt (Alvarez alluded she injured her back tonight legit and may retire soon). I was looking forward to the Sasha Banks Vs. Nia Jax feud.

 

[The Chris]

They really did earn that spot. They just sold it so well the two of them, how important that was, and they brought it. It didn't need blood or anything, I still felt the hard hitting nature of it. They should be proud. Owens and Rollins delivered too IMO.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Sucks Sasha got hurt (Alvarez alluded she injured her back tonight legit and may retire soon). I was looking forward to the Sasha Banks Vs. Nia Jax feud.

That would suck. Depending on the severity of the injury, she doesn't have to retire. She could take time off.

Then again, she's not Shawn Michaels, who took four years off from a back injury and competed for 8 more years.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

I thought the women's match was just okay while Rollins/KO was the best of the night even with Jericho.

 

[Wheels]

I feel like she is an infinitely better heel. She isn't the Rock, she can't pull off the arrogance and make it work as a face.

I think she's decent as a face, but yes, working heel is her bread and butter. I figured WWE would keep the title on her and turn her heel in time to build a feud with Baylay but maybe they have other plans now....

You are right. She is a decent face, but I guess I just love her much more as a heel. As you said, it is her bread and butter.

WWE loves Charlotte. I do as well, but it wouldn't hurt to keep her from the title for a little bit. The problem is they don't seem to know how to do a feud with women that isn't revolving around the title.

Is he making a reference to what happened in the match, or is he hinting at something else?
