Id rather give KO and Sami a real months long build. Anything for WM would just feel rushed. Let them finish the GM feud storyline at mania instead
ugh. women's tag titles need to be cross-brand if they are really going to exist. we don't need another pair of complementary titles. i will say, it could go a long way in protecting some of their strengths and hiding their weaknesses. not a slight against women, but there is just a smaller pool of them and they are being brought up in a much greener state than the men. Sonya and Mandy being great in the chamber as a team comes to mind.
they have to be realizing how much of a difference it makes on the performers to share the workload as a team instead of one-on-one bumping every night, i'd like to think
This doesnt really work with their touring schedule though, unless they are gonna drop the brand split entirely. Smackdown runs house shows on Monday during RAW. I cant see them having two major womens stars not show some weeks just to cut a promo on RAW. The dual-branded PPVs make it possible, but, the logistics will still be bad.
i mean only the champs would need to bounce, i doubt the "major" women's stars are gonna be the ones relegated to a tag division, there's still two main belts that need stories, but we'll see. it needs to either be one title for both brands or only on Raw imo
Tbh I always liked the idea of letting the womans champ be on both brands just like the WWE champ use to [should] be. I like the idea of a woman's tag belt, but yeah.. I don't know if they got enough women still to keep a tag division engaging on both shows.
McIntyre is expected back soon, since filming is done leading up to WM I’m sure he will be held off of tv until after, but will probably work live events.
Im just thinking right now, you might have a Becky/Naomi team competing with Bayley/Sasha for the belts (since Bliss/Nia/Asuka and Charlotte/Ruby/Carmella are floating around the main belts)...or you'd have each womens roster 10-12 women deep and they'd get no screen time like the CW's.
imagine how much better positioned the women's division would be if absolution and riott squad never existed. so much more freedom
That's imagining a world where they didn't group a bunch of girls together just to avoid missing out on awful, pointless promos and men's squash matches that don't do much at all. There are going to be even more talented women in the coming years and I wonder how they can fit them all in one show with the men. I think they could add a third show that maybe combines 205 and the women's division but even then, I'm not sure.
Mandy would be way less insufferable, I noticed she does a Dana-ish pose now too. It's all so bad and doesn't make any sense.
Posted this in the wrong thread. Whoops. Ricochet and Lio Rush are going to 205 Live soon. Trying to make it a touring brand.
All for it. 205's quality has really taken off over the past 4-6 weeks and with reports that Ricochet has been tamed down a little bit at NXT shows, let him do his thing and become the star of the brand for a while.
