    They want the belts to look strong, so they are putting the titles on people the crowd won't turn on.

    So they're both gonna lose the title? Is that what you're saying?

    Yeah. Though I don't know what a viable title match would be for Ronda. I guess Natty? They have two months to build whatever.

    Charlotte and Becky seems like the obvious match for Smackdown.

    What is the format exactly? Are other retired wrestlers returning as well or just trish?

    I think (literally nothing but my own speculation) there's gonna be a Battle Royale or something. Similarly, Meltzer made it sound like his source thinks the 4HWvs4HW match could still be at Evolution vs Survivor Series

    I think they need more time to build to that. No one is going to care about the three of them showing up out of nowhere. They also just need more time. The only person in that match I think could anchor it would be Shayna and I'm not even confident in that.

    They should just do it at mania or wait until next year around that time. Let them all be at least somewhat ready, I haven't seen two of them even wrestle yet.

    Viable match for Ronda would have been winner of a Battle Royale facing her, and having Trish win it. Would have been a dynamite main event, and what a vet to put her over and signal the change in WWE (going from a model turned wrestler to a legit MMA fighter). And they could have had people fight for battle royale spots on RAW in the build up.

    Ronda/Natty is weak, and having Natty fight week-to-week in Ronda's place (or tag matches) is a better strategy than leaving Ronda with no friends.

    When they were training pre-Ronda, the word was that they were shitty, but now apparently they're showing potential? I saw a GIF of Marina Shafir and she was not bad

    Yea I mean, sure you could have it now and risk it being just okay but why not wait till they've been doing this a full year and have the experience and idea of who to use and who to push post it. This is all too logical though, wwe gotta make the $ as fast as possible.

    The issue was that they weren't serious enough about doing wrestling as a career.

    Apparently a graphic of Alexa Bliss vs Trish Stratus at Evolution was shown at NXT or something?

    Forced face of the division Alexa Bliss getting circles wrestled around her by a 40+ year old, retired for over a decade Trish Stratus is going to be funny/sad

    I was thinking in circles and couldn't get away from that matchup, like yea Sasha botches a bit too much but that's the match I would want.
     
  20. It’s probably so that they can free up Sasha to win tag titles and set up a feud with four horse women


    It’s crazy that both women champs are the two worst wrestlers in the division
     
  21. Dave said the current plan in terms of the main event for Evoltuion is Rousey vs Nikki Bella.

    "The feeling is that since both of them are the biggest female names in the company in terms of the mainstream media, WWE wants to have these two main event the PPV and they believe that a match between the Ronda and Nikki can get them mainstream media attention for the show."

    even that nonsense is just a vehicle for ronda vs. charlotte.

    none of the other women are going to matter

    What better way to celebrate women's WRESTLING by having an MMA star and a reality television star in the main event!
